MAY lst, 1963 Nestieton Girl Chosen Cartwright's 'lie largest, crowd in the history of the Cartwright Iligli Scliool annual dances enjoyed a wonderful party at the Cornmuiity Hall iin Blackstock oni Friday evening. One of the features of the event xvas the selection of "Miss Cinderella", carrying out the theme of the party. Miss Laurie Mackie, an 18-year-old Grade 13 studen-t frorn Nestieton xvas the judges' chioice (centre), with 16-year-old fAeces MAY DAY SNOW - The f irst day of May broke eariy this morning with the ground covered by snow and temperatures at freezing. Anyone who feels like dancing around a maypole today, had better wear galoshes. t t t- i t CHAIRMAN SICK -~ St. Paul's U.C.W. needs help. They have a big bazaar lined up for this Saburday af ternoon at 2:30, but the publicity chair- man took sick suddenly and was unable ta send in the necessary advance notice for last week's Statesman. If anyone can lend a hand by attend- ing the bazaar, it will be apprecîabed. T t T T MORE PROBLEMS - The St. Paul's U.C.W. îsn't the only group in trouble. The Girl Guides and Brownies were to have held their annual Cookie Day this weekend, but found, after the paper came out that the Boy Scouts and Cubs were holding their Apple Day at the same ime. The girls retired gracefully, feeling that cookies and appies probably don't go too wel bogether. Now, jthe Guides wiil swing into action Wednesday, May 8th and continue their sales until May llth. Y *i- BLOOD CLINIU - Information hias reached us that the Red Cross Blood Clinic for Goodyear employees will be held at the factory on Monday, May 6th, just two days before the general one at the Lions Centre on May 8th. We can't heip wondering what would have happened if the plant had gone. on strike. Probably those ingenious Red Cross workems would have established a clinic on the pîcket line somehow. Maybe they would have substituted on the line while the striker went to give blood. It's nice such measures weren't necessary. GOING STRONG - P.S.I. headquarters currentiy staging a big drive hiere for meînbership in theix- Cornmuîîity Health Plan advises that enroilment this week bas been excellent. They are located îii~ the office above S. R. James, Inisurance. RAISING MONEY- We neglccted to mention that the Boy Scouts and Cubs selling apples this xveekend are not only raising money for their local needs, they are also trying ta help finance one of their members who will be attending the 1lth Worid Jamboree in Greece in August. Ho is Stepheni Jefferv, sont of Mm. and Mrs. Howard Jeffery -who was selected for this great honor. t ~t t HELPFUL OMISSION - Word cornes from the Durham District High School Board that there hias heen a revision of their budget which will hielp taxpayers throughout tbe ai-ca, but probabiy not this year. l'hey* expected a farm assistance grant of $10,000 but actually will receive $62,000 f rom t ho Ontarin government. Unfortunately, this information xvas not received in time for readjustment of many municipal tax bis. It should heip riext year. t *- t TOBACCO PROBLEMIS- Growers of tobacco in Durham shou]d soon know how mnany acres they will lie permitted to growv, and it, does appear tlîeip xviii ho a 40 per cent reduction over last Year. As one gi-oweî' said "It's bhe worst mess in six vea rs of growing"'. RECEIVES DEGREE - Rex' D. Il Woodhouse, Minister of Port Hope United Church is to receive an hionorarY doctor of dix'initv degree from Qupen's Universit' on Ma 'v,-l7th foi outstanding work in the C'hristian ministry.
