L a ¢ i [ry Volume 99 Number 37 Well Attended 400 persons attended the per. formance of this year's "Spring Breeze" in the High School Auditorium last Thursday. The production staged by members of 4-1 Another Club of Uxbridge United 'Church was sponsored by the Maybelle Re- bekah Lodge and it was a suc- cess artistically as well as fi- nancially. This is the third consecutive year the performance has been shown in Port Perry and it is quite, possible that this also will be the last of these events. 1 THURSDAY, JUNE 11th, 1964 "Spring Breeze"| Blood Donors The need for supplies of blood has never been greater than it is now and Uxbridge Branch Red Cross has set its sights on an objective of 250 contributions at its June 18th clinic. The Blood Donor Clinic will be held in the basement of Trinity United Church between the hours of 2.30 - 5.00 p.m. = 6.30 - 9.00 p.m. on June 18th.

Early Sunday morning a lawn chair and barbeque were stolen from the lawn of a home on Lilla Street. A 16 ft. extension ladder and a 7 ft. step ladder were also stolen some time over the week end from a drive way on Queen Street. from the Port Perry High School Band. "Thank You" Su- san, your drumming added much to the marching. Mrs. Ruby Roach, Division Commissioner for Scugog Area and Mrs. Rena Webster, District Commissioner of Port Perry, were in attendance, we appreci- ate your coming to this Service for we realize you both are very | busy. Mrs. Webster read the Scrip- ture taken from Ephesians Chapter VI verses 1 to 11. Mr. Gilbert had a story for the Boys and Girls on being "Trustworthy". If a promise is given by a person, that person should do his or her best to keep it. The Sermon was based on the Scout Laws, Promise and Motto. Parents of the Boys enjoy this Service and want to say "Thank You" to all who take part and make it a success.
