A special Christmas dinner party was held in the Maple Room at the Union Station to celebrate the 80th birthday of Mrs. E. Anderâ€" son of Aldgate Ave., Humber Bay, on Christmas Day. Thirty two members of the Anâ€" derson clan sat down together for dinner, among whom were Mrs. Anderson‘s five daughters and one son. Her eldest daughter and sonâ€" inâ€"law, Mr. and Mrs. Leon Elsey, visiting from Port Arthur was a highlight, since they had not been home for Christmas since 1932. Ten of the twelve grandchildren and seven of 17 greatâ€"grandchildâ€" ren were also present. A large birthday cake was cut and a toast to Gran Anderson was proposed by Bill Saint, husband of Joyce Handicott, ably responded to by the‘ guest of honor, and a prayer of thanks was given by Jack Segsworth, husband of Joan Handicott. â€" The dinner was followed by dancâ€" ing for the elders and an explorâ€" ing party around the station by the young ones, concluding this memorable occasion. Mr. and Mrs. A. Henry, Aldâ€" gate Ave., assisted by their young daughter Coleen, were hosts at. a getâ€"together of relatives, friends and neighbours on New Years Eve. By EVELYN BANAS After a week of deliberating quietâ€" ness in Royal York Collegiate, the faithful R.Y. students returned to their regular school activities on January .3 of last week. Perhaps I speak of January 3 as a gloomy day, but only because it signified the return of work, a hardship which every individual, including/the average student, must undertake in order to achieve success in any field of study. Well, the first few days rolled by without too many groans. It was like a new beginning. One could almost wish he were back in the fall term where the excitement of nearing holidays was quite evident in the spirit of every student. â€"The tension had been high, because of the forthcoming exams, yet the relief of a week‘s holiday afterwards offered a rewarding rest As the Concert Band, conducted by Mr. Roy, played a musical ‘prelude by Bach, the eager students filed into the auditorium row by row. Wheh everyone was seated, the ‘vast room went dark and the Christmas assembly began with the The Girls‘ Choir, conducted by Mr. Wallace, sang two carols, "The Christmas Nightingale," and "Go, Tell It On the Mountain." Their accompanist was Margaret Springle. . As the applause for the choir died down, the trurmpet duet, by Tom Blum and Barry : Hodgins, accompanied by Janet Kennedy on the piano, played a marvellous ensemble in their French carolâ€" "Contigne de Noel." . Next, the string ensemble, conâ€" ducted by Mrs. Sneyd, played "Variations on a French Carol." ." Perkaps the most noval of all performances was Daria Mec‘s, sang m solo, "The Christmas "Nariations on a French Carol." _ | Even the best drivers have ."

The family had resided on Waniska, and Bonâ€" nyview Drs. for some fortyâ€"five years, and were well known and respected in the district. Mr. Gwilâ€" liams was employed for 25 years at the Steel Co. of Canada in Swansea prior to _ retirement. Mourning him are his widow, Lenâ€" ore, three sons, John, William, Walter, daughter Blanche, (Mrs. Harold Hall) nine grandchildren and six greatâ€"grandchildren. Before the holidays, our Christâ€" mas Drive profited in sending twentyâ€"two _ bushel _ baskets _ of canned food products to the Yonge Street Mission. Ann Mackenzie, the chairman of the Welfare Committee, headed this project, which was initiated about two weeks before Christmas. Kindest sympathy is conveyed to the family of the late Mr. Tomâ€" linson, Cannon Rd., another long time resident 6f Humber Bay, who died last week. Also mourning for a beloved wife and mother is the family of Mr. Joseph Wiseman, Grand Ave., whose wife Shirley passed away very suddenly on New Year‘s day, leaving two young daughters. Mr. Roy conducted the Concert Band in "A Christmas Suite" by Walters. ~I‘d swear that this piece last about five to ten minutes, but it was certainly worth listening to. The assembly finished with the entire audience singing "Hark, the Herald Angels Sing." The preparaâ€" tion _ and â€" performafice of _ the assembly | was â€" well worth / the trouble since, in the end, an enjoyâ€" able halfâ€"hour was spent on the The tickets were selling wildly for the doubleâ€"header boys basketâ€" ball game at Kipling Collegiate last Friday night.
