a eT Page 4 The Haileyburian Thursday, November 30, 1961 What Marney McPherson of Agincourt, Ontario, is trying to say in the prettiest way possible -- winterize your car! Hon. H. L. Rowntree, Ontario Minister of Transport, couldn't agree more and adds, "For your own sake, winterize your driving, too." New Sweaters Handsome | EasytoKeepNewLooking A perfect gift suggestion to meet the requirements of even the hard- to-please male on your Christmas list could be a "sporting look' jacket or sweater. Handsome styles, many with con- wertible hoods, include hidden-zip eardigans, Scandinavian patterns and sculptured knits in solid colors. You'll find jackets with lightweight Dacron linings or fleece-like lin- ings and jaunty turtleneck knits. All are equally adaptable to the campus, city, home or the ski slope. On. the . best-seller' sweater ./list, along. with "nature's own fibers, comes a vast array. of man-made yarns and fibers--many of them unfamiliar to the average shopper. It's important to realize that these new synthetics not only pro- vide warmth without weight but are completely washable. Even jackets with fluffy fleece-like lin- ings will respond beautifully to mo- dern automatic washer laundering. One of the pioneer Lodges of the North, the Silver Rebekah Lodge No. 107, Cobalt, marked its 50th anniversary last Friday. Some 150 members and mem- bers of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows gathered in the IOOF Hall to celebrate the event. The organization was established on October 17, 1911, when the char- ter meeting was held in the. then- Odd Fellow's Hall on Silver Street. Early meetings were held as well on Argentite Street over the Rodd and Deacon's Store as well as at 22 Lang Street, which was owned by the Jamieson Meat Company. This latter building, presently in use, was finally bought by the Co- balt Lodge No. 379 and the place is filled with 'pleasant memories" of the many years of activity. Four charter members were pre= sent, only one of whom holds con- tinuous membership in the local lodge. She is Mrs. Ellen Bishop, New Liskeard. With her were charter members Mrs. Ness McAulay, Haileybury; Miss Florence McLaughlin, Tim- mins; and Mrs. Janet Sykes, who nicame all the way from Detroit, Michigan, to be present at the 50th anniversary celebrations. Among the key executives on hand for the event, too, were Mrs. May Bennetts, Kirkland Lake, dis- trict deputy president; Mrs. Eric Greening, Cobalt, Noble Grand; Charles Byam, New Liskeard, Past Grand Master of the Grand Lodge of Ontario and a member of the New Liskeard Lodge No. 352; -Mrs. Eula Hickie, Kirkland Lake, vice- president of the Rebekah Assemb- ly of Ontario and Mrs. Stella Wat- son, South Temiskaming, Quebec, district deputy president of Nipis- sing District No. 36. The 50th anniversary celebra- tions, complete with an appropri- ately decorated cake, were attend- ed from out of town by members of Rebekah organizations at. South Temiskaming, North Bay, Hailey- bury, New Liskeard, Englehart, Kirkland Lake and Timmins. To date, about 517 men and wo- men have received the Rebekah Degree locally and the present membership. stands at 100. .The lodge has made many contributions to local community welfare through the years. Among the prominents at charter night 50 years ago were Ida G. Moore, who conducted the institu- tion ceremony. She was assisted then by E. M. Chapman of the Hazel Lodge, Ottawa; Anne Jacob- son, Excelsior Lodge, Montreal, TOWN of HAILEYBURY MUNICIPAL ELECTIONS ber 4th, 1961.
