Mambo of The Canadian Weekly Newspaper Assoclation Thursday, December 26th, 1967 a ~ NOTES AND COMMENTS AEN § ------------------ . ry Commit Centre? All those folk who wonder "what we do © with our time in a "small town ought to spend the six weeks before Christmas in Port Perry -- the Euchres, Bingos, dances, Banquets and Christmas parties, to say nothing of regular lodge meetings, bowl- 5 prides: etc, keep one's date book i All of which brings home quite force- fully the need of a smal 'hall with facilities . The Meaning of. Giving "And opening their treasures they of- : fered Him gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh," It may seem a far cry from the gifts of the Magii to the infant Jesus, to gifts be- neath the Christmas tree in the Canadian 'home. It is a long road, indeed, yet the underlying motive of both acts is the same. Love of its nature demands sacrifice. And love demands expression of itself to _ the beloved--by words, by deeds, by gifts and tokens of affection. The gift is a visible sign from the giver of his regard, his affection and love for the one to whom "the gift is given, ~~ Our modern and' plenteous- age has wi- dened, and perhaps diluted, the habit -of gift giving at Christmas time. "But the true significance of the gift remains the same. for serving a good hot dinner to some two hundred folk. We would like to suggest that - every organization in Port Perry which has occasion to hold banquets, sup- per meetings, Bingos, euchres, eté., ap- point a representative, and that these re- presentatives get together to consider what they can, do, collectively, to build such a centre for the town. There is nothing like co-operative com- munity effort to get things done. T ~ At times we place mental price tags on our gifts--both those we give and those we: receive. The big gift, the expensive gift becomes our objective. The best cure for that is to attend a school Christmas concert--any old school . concert will do. Watch the little ones, the pre-schoolers and the first grade pu- pils, when they receive their gift. It may- be a tin whistle or a doll's apron, yet for . the little ones there is as much pleasure -in receiving that as in getting an intricate, expensive jet toy. From the wee ones, God's chickddees, we learn anew the true significance of giving. By Stan McKinnon, Editor, Surrey Leader, Cloverdale, B.C.

George Kydd won a seat on the 1958 council at the polls on Monday. This was . Mrs. Kydd's first bid for the position - of councillor and she won in a-two- way contest Mr. Stanley Beach, who served in that capacity for two yrs, 1953-1954, was defeated by a 285-143 vote, : Mrs. Kydd will bécome the first lady councillor in the Town of Ux- bridge for many years. The last time a lady held a position in.muni- "cipal government was in 1946 to 1950 when 'Mrs. Rosebrough- gerved as couneillor, ] Mrs. Kydd's election will bring to ' three the number of new faces in the 1958 council.

For a fee of $7, an efficient official was obtained from Oshawa by the local management in an effort" to quell the unnecessary rough play. Robt. Simcoe, an un- known in my books, was assigned the task. He turned in an excellent job and was well worth the remuneration he received. From the drop of the puck, he had the game in hand. A- round the net or in the corners, he {mmediately stopped the play When- ever the puck disappeared from his view. He clamped down on players who committeed even minor offences. He thumbed the offenders to the pen- alty box either singly or in pairs, The | monotony of watching the game from the sidelines appeared to have an' ef- fect on the players and fans viewed one of the better contests here this season. Not a single player suffered an injury, a far different story than has been told in previous games. The visiting referee called the game by the book. A stranger to the play- ers, he watehed every play witha keen eye and earned the respet of both the participants and the fans.
