TO DISPLAY FAMED QUEEN'S CARPET HERE FRIDAY Don't miss the opportunity of seeing Queen Mary's carpet, which will be on exhibition at Stirling and Dynels garage on Friday, April 6, from 9.30 a. m. to 9.30 p.m. under the sponsor- ship of the LODE. There will be a nominal charge of 25 cents for adults and 10 cents for children unaccompanied by their teachers. Students at- tending in classes will be admit- ted free of charge. For every donation of one dollar or more an official receipt will be given for income tax purposes. The history of the Queens carpet typifies a life where love of beauty and craftsmanship have gone hand in hand with service to her country. Queen Mary worked on the English 18th century design needle-point/ car- pet for eight years. The colors reflect her majesty's personal choice, but she was restricteid in making the solid beckground color 'because of shortages | and rationing .of wool. Queen Mary's carpet is unique in design, and equally remarkable for being the only one of comparable size to be worked by a queen. The queen mother had pic- tured it taking due' place among the family heirlooms in. Wind- sor (Castile. 'When Britain's economic crisis became. acute the queen mother gave the royal carpet to the nation to be sold for the benefits of her country's dollar export drive -- the only stipulation being "that it 'hang in a public place", The I.O.D.E. "Alimony is merely a married man's cash-surrender value," says Hannah.

It is expected that over 500,000 people will view the carpet before it is finally pre- sented to the National Gallery at Ottawa--ithe gift of the Canadian people. "To feel that my carpet is now in the keeping of the Canadian people is more than ample reward to me for all' the time I spent making it during the war years," the queen wrote in a letter to the mt president of the LO.D.E. H. Hall and Mrs. Har- i Dunshoatn are co-conveners of the exhibit, and will be assist- ed by Mrs. A. H. Downey and Mrs. Roy Irwin, regents of the two chapters, Mrs. W. O. Gibson and Mrs. B. A.

Bruce Colville was elected to the board of dir- ectors to serve with continuing directors, J. C. Campbell, J. F. Graydon, W. T. Dowding, Miss Barbara Stone, Cameron Hill mer, Bremner Green, T. C. Chis- holm, Mrs. A. E. N. Davis and W. G. Armstrong. George Duncan was re-appointed manager. Finance chairman Cantelon re- ported a surplus for the year of $8.70, but warned only $2,700 provision for depreciation and re- placement had been made. Owing to expansion of the upstairs lounge, installation of the bar and building of the steward's house the club had strained its current finances almost "to the bursting point," he said. A provision of $8,000 was being included in the budget for the coming year to ad- equately provide reserves: He stated that the bar had not proved to be the money-making proposit- ion that had been expected, thus accounting for a lower than bud- Charles Ambler stated mem- bership stood at an all-time high PHILIPS PHONGRAPH-RADIO Mahogany or Walnut ® Full Range Tone ® Three-Speed Record- Changer ® Long and Shortwave Radio 8 THOMAS ST.

Y. Dick, Dr. Murray Deang will rep- resent the party in the next pro- vincial election as its candidate. Mr. Dick withdrew after pointing out he was occupied with several public: 'positions in the county at that time. Angus McMillan, president of the Oakville Liberal Association nominated Dr, Deans and pointed out the candidates long service in the public interest in Oakville. "Doc, ag we like to call him," sald Mr. McMillan, "has taken part in victory loans, was mayor of Oak- ville, has served on Red Cross committees and wag active in the campaign to raise mbney for Oak- ville's hospital" Contending that only lack of effort on the part of supporters had led to Dr. Dean's defeat in the last provincial elec- tion, Mr. McMillan calted on all county Liberals to work this time as hard as they should have the last time. "Then I am confident that we can have a Liberal mem- ber at Queen's park" W. J. L. Hampshire, Milton, seconding the: nomination agreed heartily with Mr. MeMillan"s comments | on the lack of effort shown by support: ers, "Buty If we get behind our candidate we can elect him," he contended. Dr. Deans reiterated hig prom- ise that, if elected, the "Voice of Halton" would be heard in the legislature. He also expressed his conviction that the municipal act needed serous revision, and crit- icised the present administration for allowing the portfolios of Ed- ucation and Justice to be handled by one man, the Hon. Dana Porter. The candidate also stressed that educational grants were not as represented by the administra- tion, as the total amount of mon- ey available for all municipalities governed the sums which were eventually paid. He felt that the committee appointed to probe: the legal setup of the province was absurd. "Imagine the Hon. Dana Porter heading a committee to! investigate his own department. It is just whitewash on the govern- ments part" He stated that a triple play, consisting of Drew to Kennedy to Frost in the leader- ship of the provincial Conservative: party had mot heen a surprise. "I think we all knew, and I think George Drew knew too, that he wasn't going to remain as this province's Premier," he said of 409 senior members and that the membership was closed. There was a long waiting list. Cameron Hillmer reported in- creased badminton activity, with five home-and-home tournaments played with 'out of town clubs. Ted Stone, presenting Brem Green's report, stated a like in- creased activity In tennis. Thirty more junior members were active during the season. The dramatic group had come out with a profit on its operations Bill Dowding told the meeting, despite the heavy cost of taking the club's' entry to Hart House. Jim Campbell reported dupli- cate-bridge series would start immediately, This was partly in- spired by the CBC deciding to or- iginate its weekly half-hour bridge program from the club within the next two weeks. Experts Percy Sheardown and Mrs. Hudson Johnston would be present and would answer member's questions before and after the broadcast. Owing to the enthusiasm for the second season of bowling, Jack Graydon stated it had been necessary to divide players into bre 'groups, members who could evéry bowling night, and the nes lumped as a pool of re- serves, He forecast another suc- cessful season next year.
