The accident occurred early Sun- day morning when there was very littlé traffic and the young man was not discovered for some time.

Hold Election : * Scugog and Reach Teachers' Banquet Autumn leaves, flowers and berries provided a "most attractive getting for the annual Scugog & Reach Teachers' Banquet, held in the Sunday School Room of the United Church, Port Perry, on Friday evening, Oct. 19, Mr. E. Clements, Chairman of the Board of Reach Twp. School Area, welcomed some seventy guests, in- cluding the guest speaker, Rev. R. H. Wylie; Mr. H., W. Knight, Inspector of Public Schools in Ontario No. 1; Rev. R. T. Chapin and Rev, C. R. Nelson, Instructors in Religious In- struction; the Township Officials of Reach and Scugog Townships; and the members of the Boards of Reach and Scugog Township School Areas. Following the banquet, Mrs. Sandi- son, the Supervisor of Music, con- ducted an enjoyable "Sing-Song". Mr. H. W. Knight commended those representing the various phases of local education, on their approach to their work and on their ability to fraternize socially. Mr. Orval Heayn, expressed the ap- preciation of the Scugog guests in having the opportunity to be present. Mr. Gordon Ward, accompanied by Mrs. Johnston as pianist, rendered two pleasing vocal numbers. Rev. R. H. Wylie, delivered a most interesting discourse on "Citizenship". He impressed the audience with the remarks that Citizenship begins with the individual and that. his idea, good or bad becomes a part of our heritage; that Citizenship to be effective must be imperative; and that Citizenship, is the outcome of what we are, Miss Chrysler, of Port Perry High School presented a picturesque tra- vellogue of her trip to the British Isles, Belgium, France and Switzer- land. Mr. C. Rzadkowski, President of the Teachers' Group of (Reach and Scugog, expressed, on behalf of the teachers, their gratitude to those who had taken part in the program, to the ladies of the Evening Auxilary of the W.M.S. of Port Perry United Church who had so efficiently catered for the banquet, and to the committee, Mrs. Samells, Mrs. Dobson and Mr. Venner who had so ably made arrangements for this delightful event. . Women's Hospital Auxiliary The October meeting of the Hospi- tal Auxiliary was held, as usual, at the Hospital, Mrs. M. B. Dymond, the President, in the chair. Unfortunate- ly the attendance was small, but we are optimistic and hope for a much larger attendance next month. We take this opportunity of thank- ing all the friends who purchased tic- kets for the Penny Draw. We netted a profit of aproximately $409, and how we needed the money! Frankly our bank account was practically nil and we have many projects in the offing. A great deal of "linen" is needed as soon as we can procure the various | materials, Some of these articles are purchased ready-made, but many of them have to be made by the ladies, and a great deal of sewing will have to be done in the near future. We ap- preciate very much the work done by many women of the community in the past. For the information of the general public we might say that all this sewing is done voluntarily, with no financial recompense whatever, and it entails many countless hours of work. However, the need is again great and we are appealing for help from any ladies who can spare the time to do some of this worth-while work for us. The annual meeting of the Hospital Auxiliary will be held the later part of November. There will be the usual election of officers, but we promise that the business meeting will be short as we-hope to have a guest speaker. We would like to have a good attend- ance, so come if you possibly can. The date of the meeting will be an- nounced through the press a week or two prior to the meeting. 4 TEN WEEK OF TULIPS little - about tulips, tiful, surpassingly™ be and are all over in a week ar two". 4 Now this is not true.

We must make preparations for colder weather. The Churches have been busy laying plans for our winter program. We have settled our Sunday hours of worship and Sunday School. Commencing on the first Sun- day in November the Church service for the Island will be at the Centre Church at 10.156 a.m. We are combin- ing Church and Sunday School. There will be Sunday School at the Head at 11 aii. In the basis of union between these two churches, it was agreed, that the "Head" continue to have their own Sunday School. The service at the Centre church "Grace" will be over at 11.06 a.m. The minister will then go to Manchester for a similar service at 11.15 a.m. And then at 1.15 p.m. or 1 1.30 p.m (which ever is preferable) Prospect will have their Church and ! Sunday School. This has all been j sanctioned by our official board, which imet in Manchester Church last Satur- day evening, with a very fine repre- sentation of the Four Churches. Sun- day, November 4 will be RALLY DAY in the Pastoral Charge, and invitation cards are being sent to all our children. Special services are being arranged, and the Minister will tell Bible Stories on "flannelgraph" in place of the re- gular sermon, and both Junior and the Senior Choirs will sing. We are hop- ing and praying that every family will respond, and that our Churches will be filled. "There will be a special even- ing service on that Sunday, Nov. 4 in the "Head Church" on the Island. As far as the pastoral charge is concerned, tlie Union on the Island has been attained; and only waits the safiction- and blessing of the Oshawa Presbytery, which will meet in Green- wood on November 14. As soon as this takes place, then a NEW CHURCH to be known as SCUGOG UNITED CHURCH will be born. The new church will immediately plan for Spe- cial Services under the direction of the Presbytery, and a New Membership 1 Roll will be compiled. An oppottunity will be given all who would like to come and "join the New Church, and , thereby become "CHARTER MEM- BERS." A special motion was passed by the congregation at "Grace" invit- ing all who belong to the Indian Mis- sion to come and join forces with the New Church. On Sunday, "Grace Church" on the Island, held her Anniversary Service. The Church was beautifully decorated with flowers: and was filled, morning Rev. Stanley Osborne, D.Th., preached in the morning. The Choir sang "O Lift Our Heads", and "What a Friend", with Edna Beckett at the organ. In' the evening our President of Conference, Rev. H. A. Mellow, B.A., preached, and the Hooper Quartette of Oshawa, sang "Where the Healing Waters Flow", "I am trusting in Thee Lord Jesus", and Mr. Stanley Hooper, a solo} "My Home, Sweet Home". It was a day of inspiration, and will bear much spiritual fruit. Rev. 'C. W. Hutton, B.A., preached at Prospect, and your minister at Manchester in the evening. Let us all get behind our Rural Churches, and build them up by form- ing the habit of attending God's House regularly on Sundays. and evening. Curling Club Any member of the Port Perry Community Curling Club or anyone who is interested in trying to curl a few rocks is invited to the Memorial Gardens next Wednesday night, Oct. 31. The Arena Board is renting the ice to the Club for a "try-out" night in order to give an opportunity to curl to beginners or to anyone wishing to be the Club's guest. This is a rare opportunity to get a feel of the forty pounders and keep your feet on the ice. In the old game of curling the curler gets few opportunities: to prac- tice; he is always in a roaring game. Bring an experienced curler with you or, Old Curlers bring out any one who is desirous of trying.
