"3 8--THE PORT PERRY STAR, THURSDAY, JULY 18th, 1067 Greenbank Church Celebrates 60th Anniversary 60 YEARS--On Sunday, June 23rd, Greenbank celebrated, in its spring anniversary of the United Church, sixty years in which the present build- ing has stood on the corner and served the surrounding community. During the past decade many im- provements have taken place. A new oil heating system complete for church and Sunday School room; the Sunday School floor covered with linoleum, walls and ceiling decorated and new lights installed; the ladies' kitchen remodelled and equipped with counters, cupboards, water and gas; the church stained glass windows pro- tected with plate glass. For this an- niversary the church auditorium has been redecorated, pews varnished, linoleum laid, pulpit platform re- modelled, new carpet for front aisles, new communion table, brass cross in memory of Mus, Cecil Leask, two brass vases in memory of Mrs, John two flower stands, hymn boards and bulletin board. Sunday morning was a beautiful morning and close to 400 crowded the auditorium for 11 o'clock worship ser- vice. The church was beautifully de- corated with flowers. Rev. Kénneth Lee, B.A., whose boyhood home was Greenbank, preached on "My Church and I" sounding the note of loyalty ta, Christ and His Church, A. bap- tismal service was performed by Rev. Mr. Chapin when Kenneth James, son 'of Rev. Kenneth Lee and Mrs, Lee, and Elizaheth Anne daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Bruce Taylor of Timmins, Ont. were baptised: The Young People's choir were at their hest, with Mrs. R. Sandison lead- ing and Mrs. K. Ferguson, organist. Mrs. Irma (Walker) Washburn added to the spirit of worship with her solo "How Beautiful upon the Mountains". Rev. Thos, Wallace, who spent so many years as pastor of this church, extended greetings and closed the ser- vice. At the close of the service the con- gregation was invited to the Sunday School room where lunch was served by the community and the Women's VS Sah hy Nk oe locally known as Aunt Emma, cut the birthday cake. The room was filled to capacity and a very happy hour in visiting and renewing acquaintances was thus enjoyed. About a third also returned to enjoy supper together, In the evening service, with a full church, Rev. Keith McMillan, B.A, B.D,. who also was brought up in Gireenbank, now in Burlington, preach- ed on "The Church Visible". His in- spiring message at the close of the day was both uplifting and challeng- ing. A large choir of former choir members with Mrs, Ernest Phair at the organ helped the heart to "wor- ship in the beauty of holiness" as they rendered "Lead Me Lord", and the Junior Farmers' Quartette con- tributéd two selections to the service of worship. : Thus ended a day which will remain in the memory of Greenbank residents, nearby friends and former residents from near and far, as a most happy and soul satisfying day. Friendships were renewed, the past reviewed, and the future anticipated.

Frontier College is an organization that serves the education needs of men who live in isolated camps where there are few educational opportunities. It is staffed by young men from uni- versities who go out to the camps for a summer or longer as laborer-teach- ers. They earn their living on the job during the day and in the evening organize classes, lend books and ad- vise correspondence students. This is strenuous, exciting work, but through it hundreds of men have re- ceived thgir only chance of education, Classrooms in tents, shanties or rail- way cars are found in all provinces, with a large proportion of them in Northern Ontario. The college was founded in 1900 and incorporated in 1919, WHAT WAS MARKLAND? Markland is mentioned in Icelandic literature of the eleventh century as one of three regions that Scandinavian wanderers visited on the east coast of North America. The other two were Helluland and Vinland, Markland ap- parently was between the other two, perhaps on the coast of Labrador. A settlement in Newfoundland also bears WHAT CANADIAN VILLAGE IS NOTED FOR ITS COLLECTION HOLY RELICS? Numerous pilgrims come every year to the village of Annaville, Quebec, which has one of the largest collec- tions in North, America of holy relics from Italy and the Holy Land. The village received its name from the fact that its first parish priest brought back from Rome a relic of Saint Anne. More Hazards Than Ever "With these recent storms in Ont- ario, more than ever we must do everything we can to promote Water Safety", said Claire McMullen, Direc- tor of the Red Cross Water Safety Service for Ontario. "Practically all over the Province, the water level has risen anywhere from 6 inches to three areas are now hazardous". Rivers and streams, once an enjoy- able place for playing, are now trea- cherous, Currents and = undertows have increased, calnt and quiet waters are now dangerous. Miss McMullen went on to say that more people than ever will drown through not observing the simple wa- ter safety rules. In June alone there was an increase of 156 drownings over last year. During July and August these numbers will grow even more. The greatest number of drownings occur from non-swimmers not wear- ing lifejackets. In two accidents re- ported within the past few days, those wearing jackets and involved in a boating accident were saved -- those not wearing jackets drowned. Non swimmers," even weak swimmers, should wear lifejackets when in a boat and when playing around the water. By observing this simple rule - feet--and supposedly safe swimming ! many lives could be saved. SMILES'N U0 OH OO HL MT CHUCKLES the name, New Summer package of Candy, delicious assortment.

WHO COMPOSED "0 CANADA"? ~+The music of "O Canada" was com- poséd by Calixa Lavallee, a composer and conductor born at Vercheres, in Lower Canada. It was composed at the request of Lieutenant-Governor Theodore Robitaille, and was first played at Quebec on June 24, 1880, Lavellee studied music in Montreal as a child and about 1857 he ran away to Orleans with a theatrical troupe. Dur- ing the American Civil War he served as a bandsman in the northern armies and in 1868 returned to Montreal to teach music. He served as conductor and artistic director at the New York Grand Opera House, studied piano and composition in Paris, and returned to Canada to promote operatic produc- tions in Montreal and Quebec. His published work includes two operettes, choral and orchestral selections, piano pieces and songs, Future. ..4-H Club Member The two-year-old in his play-pen is fascinated by life around him. He longs to pull the tail feathers out of every chicken on his father's farm. He has no idea at all how a farmer's son should behave, but he'll find out, later, when his 'brothers initiate him into the local 4-H club. Here he'll learn by doing, pledged to use his head, heart, hands and health in the best possible way. 4-H Clubs were started with one simple idea in mind: to have rural young people do a worthwhile piece of work at home, voluntarily, and do it better than ever before. Plant a garden plot, perhaps, or raise a calf, make a dress, beautify a room. The idea was so good that the young people swept their parents along with them, and farm life improved amazingly. 4-H Clubs have done many useful things. They have kept the right boys and girls on the farm, trained young men and women for leadership, improved life in rural com- munities by introducing better agricultural and home practices, and implanted the ideal of good citizenship in young minds. There are about 76,000 4-H members in Canada. Many will graduate inte farm organizations in which are the progresdive young farmers who--by using modern machinery and farm techniques--help to keep all Canadians well fed.
