Toast To Fathers Doug Heyland, son of Botar- ian Forbes Heyland, prQposed a very humorous toast to the fathers, which was responded to by Rotarian John James M.P. Mr. James stated that the Bow- manville Rotary Club bias pre- viously had father and son banquets, and father and daugh- ter banquets, but lie believed it was the first time that a joint father, son, and daughter niglit had been heid. "This is a fine rningling of the whole family and I think it la something that should be held every year", lie declared. "Some of us do flot have tee mucli time with our families and it la certainly nice to be able to get together with them ail". He cemmented on the beautiful new Trinity Sunday School auditorium and expresà- ed the hope that the club would be invited back for its next banquet thore. Larrane Jamieson, young daughter of Rotarian Frank Jamieson, introduced Cpi. Ho]- man of the R.C.M.P. who is sta- tioned at Toronto ini the Trans- portation Division of the force. She pointed out that Cpi. Hol- man is a man who is very mn- terested in working with young people and is a real friend.of ail boys and girls. Youth Work ]Important The R.C.M.P. officer stated that men like the Bowmanville Rotarians who are engaged i service work sometimes fail te realize what an important job they are doing. "Anyone outside of the service clubs probably realizes more than you do what a worthwhile and important job you are doing with such projects as your worlc for crip- pied children. Any kind of work te heip children lu terri- ficly important". Cpi. Holman reminded bis lis- teners that it is flot chlldren who are delinquent, but their parents. "When fathers can bring their sons and daugliters to a banquet such as this, they need neyer worry that they will ever turn eut to be juvenile dle- linquents", lie declared.. He emphasised that a person gets eut of any organization; or ife itself, for that matter, only in proportion to what hie puts in. '«If you are net satisfied with what you are gettlng eut of your life as an Individuel, as a service club member, or as a Canadian citizen, remember this fact", lie urged. Perhaps if you will put more honest ef- fort into the thinga that make up your way of life, you will become a happier and more con- tented person". Speaka To Youngsters Cpi. Hoiman then declared that the rest o! his address was ,speciaiiy for the boys and girls. By making use of a question, and answer method with the chiidren he brought eut the facts e! the hugeness of Cana- la. "This is a big, ricli country", the speaker asserted, "but it is oniy as good as the people who ive in lt". He stated that there are a large number of people now coming to this country wh9) are known as New Canadians. "It docsn't matter what ian- luage these people speak as long as they want to becom~ good Canadians", he stated. "Never criticize them because hey don't speak English"l. The speaker pointed out to he childrenthat going to church is an important part of being a good Canadian. "You have heard of the Ten Command- nents that yen learn in churcli", he stated. "These are just 10 ules for the right way of liv- ing. One of them says "don't tel fits". It is stated in the Bi- ble as "Thou shaît flot bear fase witness", but this is wbat it actuaiiy means. Cpi. Holman aiso pointed eut the importance o! a good edu- cation in beiping boys and girls 'o be corne Canadians. "If you want te be a policeman like ne, a doctor, a saiesman, or rio natter what job yen want, you ave to have a goed education. 16UUR MUM oodannr , P7115111 *--- i U~**~*~ * * Van RC.M..croral. -"Cpi.
