Carried Water Situation is Serious With this hot spell we all love to splash our hot faces and drink cool drinks.- In fact we need to. But if you want to continue to enjoy this privelege you and I must be careful not to waste our precious water, There just is not enough to satisfy our needs and to indulge our whims. Much as, we like green grass and plenty of flowers and a shiny car, we can't] sprinkle them to keep them bright. | This isn't a game, just to get a head of - the police 'men and just put one! over on the council! If YOU waste | water--there will come a time when the taps will be dry. ; It is all very well to grumble and say you pay your water bill--but the plain fact of the matter is that there! still isn't enough water -- and your neighbour down the street has paid his bill, too, and deserves his share. The water situation is grave. We' have known for some time that we needed a larger supply. After much | search a new supply has been located; ! but it takes much careful planning and great deal of money to get it into the water mains. Your council is do- ing all it can to hasten this time--but, they want to plan for the future and give you the best water supply they can with the resources they have avail-' able, Won't you, as a citizen of Port Perry, do all you can to help make our present water supply go' evenly around, od Fortune Jubilee Draw Last week Mrs. Sandy Williams won $62.02 with a two share coupon, in the Appreciation Day Draw. Next Saturday the Diamond Mine will have $206.08. BRIEF HISTORY OF P.P. TEEN TOWN By Allan Bailey History of Teen Town: On July 10, 1956, the Port Perry Lions Club spon- sored an Organization Dance at the High School. At this dance, the ex- ecutive was elected. = Then, on the 6th of August, 1956, Teen Town held its own dance in the Arena. Dances were held weekly in the Yacht Club beginning on Sept. 7th, On October 9th, Teen Town sponsored a Hayride and Weiner Roast. The New Year's Eve Dance was held in the Public School Auditorium. Corsages, nolse makers, etc. were given to all who at- tended. Dances were then continued in the Yacht Club until March 29th, when the Port Perry Public School Boad generously consented to allow the Port Perry Teen Town to hold their dances in the beautiful spacious Auditorium. The Executive's were appointed as convenors of dances for the next two months. Carol Tanton's dance was the last dance to be held in the Yacht Club and we are grateful to the members of the Yacht Club for the use of the building during the winter months, although this was not large enough to hold the increased membership which we now have. Donna Innes was in charge of the Hat Hop Dance; Brian Taylor's dance was on April 11; Merna Skerratt's Dance on April 26. Grant Cawker's Dance on May 8; Wayne Venning's Dance which consisted of a -guest appearance of "Bird Dog" Dick MarFarland was suitably named, The Bird Dog Rock. This was the high. est financial dance which Teen Town had ever sponsored; Allan Baily's Dance was on May 31; Miriam Harris' Dance was on June 7 and Lillian Couves was convenor of the dance on June 16th, } ! On this Friday, June 21, John Crox- all and Irene Ptomely will be the con- venors. A new sound system was purchased by Teen Town from Mr. Charles * Brignall for instalment in the Public School. This cost Teen Town a considerable amount of money, but members feel it is worth it. Dances raised a considerable amount of money | and everyone attending these dances enjoyed themselves fmensely. From the suggestion of Mr. Tom Harris and the generosity of Mr. Frank Hastings, Teen Town was able to organize a Bowling League con- sisting of seven teams, with seven players to a team. On April 26, at the conclusion of our league a turkey ban- quet, served by the Scout Mothers was enjoyed by all, Prizes wefe award- ed to the winning team, these being coats and trophies were awarded to individual high bowlers. A new bowl- ing executive was elected for the coming year. A dance followed the banquet. Teen Town's next project is soft- ball which began June 8, at the High School grounds. The League consists of five teams, four teams playing each Saturday afternoon at 2.00 p.m. However, last Saturday one of the teams failed to show up for the game, and several players from the other teams also failed to show up. If you do not wish to play, tell your captain, and a replacement may be obtained. Due to a misunderstanding last week, Mr. Jimmy Taylor announced, in the Port Perry Star, that he would have nothing further to do with the Teen Town, but this was just a mis- understanding, and he will continue to do his work, which he so ably per- formed. If anyone has any complaints, would they please direct them to the executive. } On June 28, Teen Town will hold a Parent's Night. All parents are asked to attend, and see what is being done at Teen Town and to see how our dances are carried out. Ipstead of showing the Parents how to dance, probably they could show us, The elect- ion of officers will be held on this night also. - All members are asked to buy .a Teen Town Crest, if they have not already purchased one. There are still a considerable number of crests left. Teén Town would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who contributed towards the Bowling prizes, and also all of those who chaperoned our dances. For this, we are grateful, for without you, we could not carry on. Teen Town isin need of sweaters for the Boy's Soft- ball Teani, and any contribution can ~ ; NEW CPAL ROUTE TO LISBON: Pointing out the recently inaugurated Canadian air route acrots the mid- Atlantic to Lisbon, Mayor Nathan Phillips of Toronto, left, and N..

Fralick, a beautiful 50th an- niversary took place on Wednesday, June 12th, 1957, at the farm that is now over one hundred years with the Fralick family. The house and grounds were decorated with lovely flowers that came in time from rela- tives and friends. The Bride looked charming in a dusky rose crepe dress with a lovely necklace and bracelet--a gift of the groom. They were honoured to have Mrs. Dora Nott and Dr. Clare Henders who acted as bridesmaid and best man at their marriage in 1907. Friends and relatives sent many cards of congratulations and beautiful gifts were brought along by them: -- the "family, an ecasy rocking ehair; from the Gerrow family a beautiful coffee table, and a nice table lamp from the Women's Association (Grace Church) of which Mrs. Fralick has been a member for over 50 years, and many other useful presents. Several telegrams of congratulation from the Prime Minister Louis St. Laurent, Ottawa; Farquar Oliver, M.P-P,, Toronto; Dr. Claude Vipond, Oshawa; and from Mis. J. Bemrose, Montreal, aunt of the-groom. Dr. M. B. Dymond, M.P.P. brought greetings from Premier Leslie Frost, also a let- ter of congratulations from the Pro vincial Secretary. Assisting with lunch in the after- noon: Pouring tea was Mrs. Orma Gerrow, and Mrs. Dora Nott, and dur- Alfred Prentice and Mrs. Ross Fralick. When the tables were arranged on view of ancient Lisbon with a famous Moorish castle looking down on the cit from a mountain top. Flying time on the "sunshine route" between Toronto and Lisbon is less than 14 hours while the Montreal-Lisbon air time is 12 hours. The giant, new, the lawn, the guests with the family sat down to a sumptuous supper serv- ed most effectively by the daughters and daughters-in-law of bride and groom; also assisting were Gloria and Linda Fralick and Karen Ross. After partaking of the delicious supper, the toast master Rev. J. K. Braham gave an address relating the history of the farm, the home, and the characters of Mr. and Mrs, Fralick. Then a toast to the family was proposed. Dr. R. F. Fralick was called on to toast the Bride, whom he knew for many years, which he did very effectively. Mr. Om Gerrow (brother of the bride) passed some joking remarks with reference to their younger days of courtship, and spoke a little of the union of the bride and groom; who were honoured by the large gathering of relatives, Mr. Wilfred Gerrow of Galion, Ohio, U.S.A, gave some com- plementary remarks to the ladies for their excellent service. He also read some telegrams of congradulations. Then Rev. Mr. Braham read a letter written by a former pastor, Rev. F. G. Joblin, who referred to the faithful service rendered to the Church and to the community during their long 50 years together. In reply Mr. Fralick thanked the Speakers, the girls 'who planned and carried out the necessary arrange- ments, and all who brought beautiful gitfs, which all contributed in making the day a very happy event. Mrs, Fralick in a very few words, also thanked everyone for their part in the happy event. The Bride and Groom are blessed with three sons, three daughters, and seventeen grand chil- dren. Ancient Medallion Comes to Light Mr. Fred Middleton turned up an old medal bearing the dates 1776 - 1876 and the emblem of the eagle. "The "medal- was so designed that it apparently had a ribbon and possibly another medallion when it was first worn, If our guess is correct it was probably one of a group of such str- uck to commemorate the 100 anniver- sary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence in the States. !DC-6B aircraft flying the new CPAL route are equipped with the latest radio and navigational aids as well as facilities insuring a high level of pasa- enger comfort, Canadian Pacific Photo Regent Dealers Join Texaco Div.

Joynt of McColl-Frontenae, Texaco's merchan- dising methods, products and identi- fication will be dealt with in detail throught the medium of film present- ations, Thoughtless Children Thoughtless children are dangerous to others in their group. The young- ster who carelessly pushes another on- to the road or who thinks it is funny to shove another child into the deep water is a real source of danger. We know that the youngster doesn't really mean any harm to his playmate, but the danger is just as serious no matter what his intention. Parents have an extra responsibility to repeatedly warn children of the dangers of the road, the lake and the swimming pool, as children spent so much time away from their parents these days. The above remarks have grown out - of a number of incidents that are re- ported to have happened on our lake front. Surely there is some way that children can be made to realize the dangers resulting in shoving a non- swimmer, especially a younger child, into the deep water Service Club The May meeting was held at the church. where we enjoyed a delicious +1 pot luck supper. The devotional was opened with the call to worship followed by singing hymn 589 and prayer by Zula Hall. Scripture was read followed by a read- ing and hymn 374 closed this part of the meeting, The minutes were read and roll call answered by 20 members with 23 present, Business discussion followed and the meeting closed with the benediction, The June meeting will be held at Betty Beare's cottage at Williams' Point next Tuesday night. All are asked to meet at the church at 6.30 and supper will be pot luck (picnic style). Don't forget your bathing suit. Obituary MRS.
