Elmore Scott in the Campbellcroft area received a certificate for having made an outstanding contribution to agriculture in the area. The jýaward was presented by the Port Hope Agri- -1 cultural Society at its annual banquet. On Mon- sýday, another subscriber, Mayor Lyman A. Gifford týof Oshawa suffered defeat at the poils when Mrs. Christine Thomas. wife of Tommy Thomas, the CCF member in the legisiature, obtained nearly 1,000 more votes in the Oshawa election. Former Bowmanviile resident Walter Branch was re-elect- eto Oshawa Council. iREPAIRING BRIDGES - The Dept. of Highways is now in the process of making extensive i&-pai*rs tto Vanstone's Bridge in the hollow at the west end of town. Further west, maintenance crews have been repiacing timbers on part of the bridge over the CPR, and also the one on Elgin Street. PLAN CRUISE -Mi'. and Mrs. Harold C. Rickaby. Toronto, are leaving the end of the month for a four-month cruise to New Zealand. They have been widely entertained by their friends. The Rickabys were formeriy of Orono. H-e is a brother of R. P. Rickaby of the "Big 20", Bowmanville, wvho at the moment is flot contem- plating much entertainment in the next few weeks with the Christmas rush in anticipation. Harold Rickaby is also Ontario Deputy Minister of Mines, a position from which he is retiring. .1... - .- j DON'T STEAL'THEM - As'Christmas approach- es, more and more potentiai Christmas trees are being removed by motorists from aiong Highway 401. Also, private property is being invaded by people *<,ho feel it is cheaper to take somebody else's trees than pay for them. Both the highway robberies and thefts from private property may spoil someone's joy at this joyous season. The magistrates probably will take a dim view of such activities wvhen the thieves appear in court. There are pienty of trees availabie around the district at reasonable prices. It could be much cheaper in the long run to buy one than take a chance on being caught. FOOD MUSIC- The Flyîng Dutchman Motor Restaurant recently inaugurated something new for this section of the country. They now have a Hammond organ in the main dining-room and on Sunday evening from 5:30 until 8:30 o'clock will try an experiment. AI Davis (not to be con- fused with local grocer AI Davis) well known Toronto organist, who plays regularly at the Park Plaza, Town & Country, etc., will be the guest organist. He will present a program of dinner music for the guests. Should be much more soothing and delightful than watching cowboys shoot each other on television at home. ~STREETN Durhamn County's Great Farnily Journal NVILLE, ONTARIO, THURSDAY, DECEMBER 8th, 1960 lOc Per Copy NUMBER 49 L IGHTING Celebrate 5Oth Anniversary On Thursday, December 1, 1960, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Lewis celebrated the 5Oth anniversary of their wedding with an evening 'reception at their home, 20 Odeli Street.
