As a staff member on the Caâ€" nadian Council of Christians and Jews, Mrs. Brant Monture said, *There are windsâ€"of change for ‘Canada‘s first citizens as they ity."*: ; Commenting on political reâ€" ports saying the emergence of the Canadian Indian should be a Centennial project, and (they) be led by the hand, "Where are we to be led?" she asked. "Not to the slums, we would not wish that,. What would happen to our land and our right to choose? We have a need for a better unâ€" derstanding among the people of the world, piease think of us 'fl fellow citizens, not strange peoâ€" ple." She went on to say that there is a new day dawning and Canaâ€" dian Indians are concerned about the Bill of Rightsâ€"does it really apply to them, too? . Mrs. Brant Monture expressed hope for a closer liason between the Government and her people in the Department of Northern Affairs, ‘"We are no longer unâ€" der the care of the Department of Citizenship‘ and Immigration", she said with a smile. In closing, shepointed out the need and fellowship of the Y ". . . we need it just as much as you do, and wish to share fully with you." An Ojibway welcome in song was brought to the Weston YWCA members by attractive, petite, Miss Edna Manitowabi in Indian dress from the Odana tribe.

An interesting incident came ‘to my attention the other day while reading an account of a woman‘s . journey by â€" canoe through the wilderness that was Upper Canada. The voyageurs, very picturesque in loose trousâ€" ers, richly embroidered sashes around their waists, long hair streaming in the wind, had the mischevious habit of paddling with extreme velocity towards a rocky shore, then, at the last moment th e y . simultaneousty back paddled and stopped with a jerk.

Eighteen players and officials were guests at the ceremony and entertainment was providâ€" ed by folk singers Bill Mithcell, Also deserving a tremendous amount of credit for the high calibre of minor hockey in Wesâ€" ton are the coaches and offigials who have devoted many hours of their own time promoting and presiding over the games, youth, burning rubber to start, screeching to a stop and carâ€" eening around corners, but wheâ€" ther it is a Roman chariot, a London buggy, a birch bark canoe or a hot rod, youth is much the same. There is nothâ€" ing new in the realim of human behaviour. We speak today of the "New Morality" but it is so aged that it breeds spiritual purification. God showed His attitude toward moral corruption and homosexâ€" uality when He rained fire and brimstone upon Sodom and Gomâ€" orrah thousands of years ago.

Most officials admit that suburban streets appear to have better snow cleaned this winter than sity streets. The argument from the city of course is that there is no place to put the snow., . £5 8 : North York Reeve James Service considers it pecâ€" uliar that none of the big three Metro suburbs, North York, Etobicoke or Scarboro are represented by electâ€" ed ‘representatives, on the Metro planning board this year. The reeve later told Metro Planning Commissioner Eli Comay that if he had been named to the phw board he would have wanted to know more what the Metro planners were working on this year. The reeve was quick to explain to Metro Council that he wasn‘t looking for an extra job. Metro has entered into an agreement with Woodâ€" bridge to provide certain sewer services on the basis that the town pay Metro for the service at the same rate other Metro municipalities pay for water. Metro welfare Commissioner Robin Smith is a former welâ€" lAr_e. official from York Township. ; Motor vehicle registration is expected to move up past the 670,000 mark this year in Metro. Cork Townâ€" ship Reeve Jack Mould is among the suburban civie leaders who want to see some changes in the Metro police commission. The reeve in 1965 spearheaded a move for charges but the effort lost power under pres sure from city members. & Metro plans to spend about $12,000,000 this year to extend the water supply system. A long range proâ€" gram of $8,000,000 has also been drafted to meet future Metro supervision and control over waste disâ€" posal. Mc _ Meftro‘s parks development program .may ‘be hit hard this year with efforts to keep ge Metro tax levy down. Metro parks committee intends to review the 25 year parks development program soon. More and more Metro politicians are getting telephone answerâ€" ing service. This is mainly because of an increase re cently in home telephone calls from citizens. _ > A general review of store closing hours in the Metro area may come as a result of the pending consolidaâ€" tion of Metro area municipalities from 13 to six in number. There has been a 150 percent increase in apartment development in Weston over the past five years. Apartment development activity has been exâ€" ceeded only in Scarboro during this five year period. By comparison North York has experienced an 88 percent increase and York Township 25 percent inâ€" crease in apartment development. . _ se A total of 60 Weston families had applied for enâ€" trance\into public housing projects by the end of 1965, according to Metro officials. About twoâ€"thirds of the families had two or three children each. . Lett, d The total for Weston was the largest among the six smaller Metro suburbs but still three times less than the 221 applications from families in York Township. Children‘s Mental Hospital First In Canada Doctor Says The University Women‘s Club of Weston were taken on a verâ€" bal tour of a hospital for menâ€" tally sick children last week. _ The 7miarj3;irt§Woiffifiai{p'lirciations from York Township came from families with three and four children. One township application was from a family with yine children. At their first meeting this year, the women were told about the work of Thistletown Hospiâ€" tal in treating emotionally disâ€" turbed children by Dr. J. D. Atcheson, hospital superintendâ€" ent. Dr. Atcheson déscribed the hospital as a type of boarding school for children of ages from 5 years to 12 years. These chilâ€" dren are taught by specially trained teachers to avoid loss of a year or two at regular school while in hospital. At the same time the children are treated for their illness which may be of many different forms. To treat these children requires a staff of trained and professional workers. The staff includes psychiatrists, psycholoâ€" gists, social workers, nurses, VC d WILF‘$ HERE‘S THE 19 JOHN ST. EVERYONE‘S BEEN WAITING FOR! ANNUAL FEBRUARY CLEARANCE!
