Stacey Estate Former Durham County Boy Bowmanville Hospital Board was happy to receive a cheque last week for $5,000, being a be- quest in the will of the late Johnl Stacey, a former Mayor of Osh- awa and a well known Durhain County boy, who died suddenly on Feb. 18, 1949, at the age of 82. Mr. Stacey was born in Devon- shire, England, and came to Can- ada in 1872 with his parents when he was five years old. The f ar- ily settled on a farm west of Çourtice where there became eventually 12 children. Due to an injury the father became an invaljd and John. at the age of 15, became the man of the fam- ily. His formai education was therefore limited to only four Winters in public school, but his seif-education in readjng and dealing in practical affairs pro- vided a sound education flot found in academic curricula which stood him well in later years. Prominent Contractor As a youth he encouraged bis brothers to join hlm in contract- ing ta build farm barns in the neighborhood and most of themn stili stand as testimonials tu their good workmanship. Li ter Mr. Stacey saw larger prospects for Sh is building instincts in the neigh- ~boring growing town of Oshawa which was becoming an important industrial centre. It is just 56 years ago he received Ms' first contract when he buit the main factory of the McLaughlin Car- niage Co., now part of the huge General Motors plant in Oshawa. This led ta instant demnand for bouses for their workmen and again Mn. Stacey displayed bis genius in construction by build- ing 60 permanent bouses in 59 days. Later he bettered this re- mankable record by building 100 bouses in Toronto in 90 days. In civic affairs, Mn. Stacey aiso halds a record af public service ta bis cammunity which will bc bard to equal. He served 41 years continuousiy on variaus civic boards which included several yeans as Mayor of the Motor City. Estate Over $150,000 It is estimated his restate will run in the neighborhaod of fromn John Stacey $150,000 ta $200,000. The uncer- tainty of a definite amount is due ta the fact that the greater part of bis estate is in reai estate which is gradualiy being sold and turned int -o cash in onder ta carry out the terms of bis wlli.

Women's Club Hear How United Nations Organization Works The week of Feb. 19 ta 24 was International Week, and a better speaker coVld not have been chasen ta address the Business and Prafessional Women's Club on Feb. 22, than Mrs. George Miller, wife of Dr. George Miller, who spent some time in Switzer- land with the World Heaith Org- anization, and who bas traveiled a great deal in othen parts o! Europe. Introduced by Miss Gertrude Deweli, the charming lady said that International Week stants people thinking of trying ta salve national problems, and under- standing othen people. She gave four points that are good ta practice every day. Points For Every Day Living The first point was taleration, wiiiingness ta listen and learn from others, slowness ta cniticize and condemn. Next was moder- ation, doing away With greed and seifish action.s and being satisfied with enough, not taking more than a fair share. Respect for others and thoughtfuiness caunt a great deal, and respect fan the property o! others. Here Mrs. Miller referred ta a verse in last week's Statesman, "The lave o! liberty is the love of othens; the love of power is the love of aur- selves." Mrs. Miller considered it a privilege ta live in the interna- tional city of Geneva and gave, from a wife's point of view, some of the things she learned about the United Nations. In 1945, rep- resentatives from f ifty countnies met at San Francisco, ta joan strengths ta form a world org- anization, and on June 25, the1 charter o! the United Nations was1 drawn up. with the purpase o! maintaining international peace and security, fiendship among1 nations. ec,,alitv and1 freeom, ,n peace-loving countries, capable of canrying out the obligations of the charter. There wene six pnin- ciple organs ta carry on the work. The General Assembly meets once a year, with eveny member state represented, and only one vote no matter how many rep- resentatives. This Assembiy holds the purse strings of the organiz- ation, considers and approves bud- gets, apportions expenses ta dif- ferent members, is maintained by contributions fram member states. Security Council bas f ive per- manent membens, United King- d~om, China, Russia, France and United States. Six othen mem- bers are appointed by the Gen- erai Assembly for two years. The Economic and Social Council re- ports recommendatians on inter- national problems such as health. The Trusteeship Council is non- selfgoverning, under the trustee- ship of the U.N. International Court of Justice is the judicial committee o! U.N. and gives legal advice ta the Genenal Assembiy. The Secretariat looks aften the administration of the whoie U.N.,. with Mr. Trigve Lee, the secre- tary generai, appointed for five years. There are a number af specialized agencies, the-Interna- tional Labour Office, U.N.E.S. C.O., International Economic and Social Council. Central Opium Board. International Refugee Or- ganization, Wonid Health Org- anization, and many others. Warld Health Organization Mrs. Miller deait with the World Heaith Organization with which ber husband was conâect- ed. For many years there Ifave been international health regula- tions between countnies, and on Juiy 23, 1946, sixty nations met and adapted the constitution o! the Worid Health Organization.

Wonshipful Master Owen Nich- olas and bis wife headed the ne- ceiving line which inciuded the Senior and Junior Wardens, Bro. A. B. Lobb and Bro. R. J. Dilling, and their wives. Mr. Nicholas was Master of Ceremnonies and afficiaily welcomed guests before the evening's ententainment got underway. This was the first visit ta Bow- manville of The Seanies Trio, camprising Cecil Seanles, violin; Gabniel Tatnallyay, 'cello, and Olive Seanles, piano and vocaiist. They provided a well balanced pragramn of ciassical and popular selections as a tria and in solo numbers, wbich received hearty applause from the audience on each appearance, several numbers demanding an encore.

Once Waste Land in United Counties Produces Million Dollar Tohacco Crép From an bumble 'beginning in 1940 in which much wvaste land has become productive, tobacco growing in Northumberland ani Durham Counties has prospered ta the extent that 51 fanms, com- prising some 6,500 acres, pro- duced appnoximateiy 1,828 acres or e,300,000 pounds of tobacco in 1950. *Tbe crop was valued at over $1,000,000. Aithough ninie new fanms are presently being equipped ta gnow tobacco in the 1951 season, an in- formed source estimates there is an additional 25,000 acres of suit- able tobacco growing land in this district. This total acreage could mean well over 200 new tobacco farms. With nine new farms beginning operation this year, it is estimat- ed that the 60 tobacco farms ini this district wiil expend approx- imateiy $650,000 on labor during 1951. The 1949 crop of flue-cured ta- bacco in Ontario, the type used in cigarettes, was relatively high at 114,161,000 pounds. Produc- tion in 1950 was close ta that fig- une. However, increased export demands are expected ta create a scarcity in 1951 unless the total yieid can be rais-d ta 130,000,000 pounds. The annual tobacco crop in Canada approximates $50,000,000 and is used in making 99 per cent of the 17,000,000,000 cigarettes CÉnadians smoke each year. Official Opening of Memorial Arena Grand Affair in Spite of Nild Weather (By Margaret Ash) The official opening of the Newcastle Communily Memonial Arena Monday evening consti- tuted another historic landmark in the long series of bistoric evenîs which have clothed New- castle and its community with significance. After four years o! patient and sacnificial, endeavour a fair crowd was on hand ta wit- ness the event Gnacing the initial proceedings was the Orono Band under the leadership of Mr. Milton Tamb- lyn, delighting the fans with mus- ical selections, deiighting the ear and inspiring the heart. Much last minute work by way of! dec- oration had been carried out. Beautiful sîlken fiags suspended from the rafters gave the whoie atmosphere a more than cheery aspect. A buge "Weicome" sign at the south end of the rink was mare Ihan in good taste flanked by clevenly created streamers in a vaniety of tastes Owing ta the unusuaily mild weather the ice proper was film- ed with a covering o! water, thus pneventing the scheduled hockey encounter between Bowmanville and Port Hope. However, the crowd exhîbited an understand- ing o! the situation, much ta the encouragement o! the offfciais, who, o! course, could do nothing about the whims o! the weather- mnan. Membens o! tbe local Veterans' Association in measured stride rnarched onta the ice: Messrs. George Meadows, Harold Brown, Gordon Laking. Alfred Adair, E{erb Gibson, Ross Embley, Sam Brereton, Irvin McCullough, Doug Waiton, Alfred Gray, George (Sandy) Graham, Frank Hoar, Gordon Gray, Allan Spencer, Dick Davies and Bill Clarke. They were followed by Reeve and Warden George Walton, Rev. L.awrence H. Turner, Rev. D. R. )ewdney, Father Coffey, Mn. John Mf. James, M.P.; Hon. Major John WT. Foote, V.C., M.P.P.;, the per- sonnel o! tbe Rink Committee: Howard Toms, Secretary; Jim Porter, Treasunen; George Grah- am. Manager; Archie Gienney, Bill Lake, Invin McCullough. Harve Bonathan, awing ta illness vas absent. Tim Daly, erstwhile trainer of the Toronta Maple Leafs Hockey Club, together with Turk Brada, represented Connie Smyth. Fauitlessly, the Orono Band ledl the assembly in singing the Na- ional Anthem, aften which Reeve Valton welcomed the audience in generai and the distinguisbed guests in particular. 1 Foliowing a prc-arranged agen- da the prayer of dedication was offered by Rev Lawrence H. Tur- ner, as follows: "This high priviiege decreed by Providence of dedicating this in onsort with my ecclesiastical Memorial Arena has corne ta me brethren and distinguished guests.
