He intended the image of the dam-building beaver to be symbolic of Canada and to emphasize the importance of the beaver skin as a means of excbange in Canada's early days. Military insignia bearing the beaver and maple leaf and decorations using the maple leaf such as The Order of Canada are gathered together in the exhibit. The commercial use of the two symbols in trademarks and packaging are depicted with contemporary souvenirs from ail parts of Canada. Wbile the exhibition is in Cobourg, maple leaf and beaver items from that com- munity will be added. These include a plate with a maple leaf border whicb was used in 1860 at a Toronto banquet for HRH Edward Prince of ales. That gentleman b as a special connection to the building in wbich the gallery is situated, Victoria Hall, for lie officially openied the Hall to the public on September 7, 1860. The Prince, of Wales,- to become King Edward VII, arrived in Cobourg by steam- er on that day and as be disembarked a royal salute was'fired. He made bis way by carniage to Victoria Hall drawn by tbe Native Canadians wbo proudly wore maple leaves on théir breasts and carried ligbted torches. It was actually late evening wben he arrived and a grand bahl was held where the Prince danced with thelocal ladiles until dawn. Apparently duning the year following the Prince of Wales' visit, a son was born to a Mrs. Parks, called Archie, who in the years to come visited a Cobourg bank once a month to cash a cheque from the British Treasury. The cornerstone was laid by Sir Allan McNab and was re-laid in June of 1972 by Premier William Davis of- ficially announcing the proposed restoration of the historical landmnark. The Art Gallery of Cobourg was part of that restoration. Victoria Hall is at 55 King Street West in Cobourg and there is no admission charge for the gallery exhibits. It is closed Monday and open from 10: 00 to 5: 00 the rest of the week except Sunday wben the doors open at 1: 00 p.m. You may also- visit during the evening on Thursdays and Fridays from 7: 00 p.m. to 9: 00 p.m. Also on King Street West, 212 to be exact, is the birthplace, now a restaurant, of actress Marie Dressler. Kid Power vs. Parent Power In the hast few years, we have been reading a lot about Children's Rights. Now that the United Nations bas declared 1979 the Inter- national Year of the Child, we are sure to be hearing even more on this subject. Wbile no one questions-- every child's rigbt to adequate'L food, shelter and education, maypeople are feeling somewhat uneasy about the movement toward "Kid Power." Recently we read of a case in the U.S. where a son sued bis parents for flot bringing hlm Up properly - they had provided the necessities but he charged that the psychological, climate ln the home was inadequate. As so often occurs, a few radicals will carry a good idea to an extreme which changes the entire focus and meaning of the movement. The Children's Rights issue includes such diverse topies as child abuse, free university education, and the parent's liability to pay debts incurred by their teen-agers. Does a child have the rlght to bis own, lawyer in a custody case? Does Mom have the right to set a curfew for 15-year-old Jenny? Does a teacher ever have the right to use corporal punishment? With such a wide range of issues falllng under the heading of Children's 'Rights, it is littie wonder that most of us feel pretty confused by the entire subject. However, there are at least two certainties. On one hand, the majority of parents are struggling to do the very best they- can for their kids' well- being, both physical and emotional. On the other hand, there are children right here ln our town who are neglected or abused and whose neigh- bours fear to meddle with the right of each parent to raise bis or ber child as they choose. In response to the Year of the Child challenge to each of, us to examine the needs of the children in our own com- munity, the Town of Newcastle Social Planning Council bas invited Miss Bar- bara tDhisholm to address an open meeting on the topic "How to Be a Parent and Sur- vive the Children's Rights Movement") Trinity Churcb Hall, Bowmanville, Feb. 20, 8 p.m.). The public is invited to attend and to share their views. Give Heart Fund We're Now Offpen to Serve You! GRAND OPENINO THURSDAY, FEB.
