Dancing to LETTERS TO The Editor, Oakville-Trafalgar Journal, Dear Sir: We have read with interest your editorial in the March 8 Issue, including a paragraph regarding the charge made to children to en- ter the new arena for the hockey game on the night of March 1st. ! Perhaps this would be a fitting time to air a little situation that has rather irked us since the opening of our new arena. We are a family of four-- Mother, Dad and two school-age | children. We enjoy being able to go out together, mow that the children are of an age when they take an interest in the sports that are so prominently advertis- ed in our town. Among the sports we all enjoy' skating, and when news of a new artificial ice arena was spread around town, we were all very enthused and did our little part. financially in help- ing to make this dream become a reality. But for what? Now that we do have our arena--and a grand one it is, too--we are bar- red from enjoying the sport of skating together. Unfortunately, or so it would seem, our children are under the age of 14, so that they must skate in their allotted times, and we must still go skat- ing ome at a time, or pay a baby sitter and leave the children at home, tearful because we must always go without them. Or we could take them with us and let them sit in the seats and watch us enjoy (?) our skate while they shiver. Why must this be? We realize that the arena committee have their hands full in trying to please everyone, but is it asking too much that at least one public skating night a week we may be allowed to go skating together, Miller's orchestra rounded out the evening. rails A native of Trafalgar, Thomas Henry Rogers, son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Henry Rogers, passed away in the Toronto General Hospital, Monday, March 5th, af- ter several weeks' illness. Mr. Rogers was born on the Henry Rogers' homestead on the Dun- das Highway, now owned by El mer McLean. At the time he mov- ed to Toronto following the sale of the farm, 25 years ago, he was tendered a farewell and presenta- tion by his friends at the Town- Pa ship hall. The funeral was held on Wednesday from the Yorke Bros. Funeral home with inter- mefit in Park Lawn Cemetery. The service was conducted by Rev. W. Lawrence of Winder- mere Ave. United Church. Sur- viving are two sisters, Mrs, W. H. Priddle (Josephine) and Mrs. Donald McInnes (Margaret) both of Toronto. [EEE Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Fish enter- tained at dinner on Tuesday eve- ning, March 6th, on the occasion of the sixteenth aniversary of thelr wedding. On Saturday afternoon, March 10th, Mrs. Willard Ryan, Toronto, entertained at the home of her sister Miss Ida Pickering in hon- or of the latter's birthday. Among the guests were Mrs. Elmer Mc- Lean, Mrs. Kenneth McLean and Miss A. Marshall. Mr. and Mrs. David Hoey have returned from their trip through western Canada as far as Van couver, where they visited with relatives. At the recent cooking school held in Oakville, Mrs. F. W. Near won the electric tea Kettle in the grand draw. Mrs. E. Albertson won one of the bags of groceries which were given out each day. THE WINNER...

THE EDITOR instead of the present "one at a time" routine? We can guarantee that the children of school age who would attend the skating at the arena in the evening, ac- companied by their parents, would conduct themselves far better than some of the "over 14's" who are unaccompanied. At least they would obey the rules set down by the Arena Management and not play tag or 'race around the ice in a disorderly manner, thereby making it very difficult for those who do go to enjoy their skate. No doubt there are other par- ents who feel as we do. Seems to us that we saw a picture in your paper prior to the opening of our arena, of a typical Oakville family who were all going skat- ing when the "big day" came. Perhaps they did go together on that day, but since then? ? 2 Perhaps 'we should get a little consolation in the fact that the Sixteen Mile Creek still runs through our town, and maybe one "Modern parents," says Hannah, "divide their time between worry- ing over how their kids wilt m out and when they't turn i For LeadershipIts ) 0): |) "Those Careful Cleaners FORSYTHE STREET AT THE LAKE PHONE 1123 OAKVILLE of these winters the weather will be cold enough to freeze it again, then our little family can once more enjoy a skate--TOGETHER!
