OA |'a “ate Senior Public School â€" Entertain More This party was one resplendent in fancy, unusual and intriguing costumes. Under the capable diâ€" rection of M. C. Stu Hill, the &nny moved _ along | smoothly. rs. A. Chapman of the Home and School was in charge of the party capably assisted by Grant Gillespie, the principal, and members of the staff and H. and S. John Allen eperated the movie which was a fullâ€"length J. Arthur Rank film. Bruce R\ufilgl preâ€" sented comedy skits and aâ€" singâ€" song. rocked the auditorium. Shellâ€"outs concluded a successful evening of fun. > Weston Collegiate â€" The teeners dance was in charge of Miss Gene Duffy, of the Y.W.C.A., assisted by a teenâ€" age‘club from the Y and mem; bers of the staff of the Collegiate and the Y Board. Ken Watts, Bobbie Gimbey and his orchestra were present through the courâ€" tesy of the Robt. Simpson Co of Toronto. Ken Watts was a capâ€" able M.C. and the orchestra left nothing to desired. A highlight of the evening‘s frolic was a square dance session led by Gord Sackett and his square dance orchestra. There were novelty dances including spot dances, elimination dances, mystery dances and a Conga Line led by Mr. and Mrs. H. Sanders, president of _ the Community Council. _ Refreshments, _ prizes and masks were given out to imâ€" prove the Hallowe‘en spirit. â€" It was estimated that over 400 girls and boys were in attendance at the dance. The orchestra is meeting with the problems which face all organiâ€" zations of its nature. The memberâ€" ship is still inadequate to cope with increasingly difficult music because of lack of support in the violin secâ€" tion particularly. At the last meetâ€" ing we were gratified to have three cellos present and they certainly rendered the orchestrations with a flair. For the next few weeks the group will be in a state of reâ€" organization and & campaign for membership will be the obligation of every one there. Patrons included: Mrs. Olive Moffat, Mr. and Mrs. C. J. Lynch, Mayor K. L. Thompson, Principal and Mrs. E. Worden, Community president Harold and Mrs. Sandâ€" Weston Concert Orchestra It is not comforting to read of the similar problems encountered by wellâ€"established musical groups in large urban areas. It merely reflects the growing pains experiâ€" enced here. Many large centres are seeing their symphony orchesâ€" tras collapsing around them. This is tragic in that it tends to indicate a decreased interest in finer music. When a city of 90,000 fails to supâ€" port a symphony orchestra of 50 pieces, the reader may well imigine the chore for 8,000 population to bring up their strength, to 80. The 1949 edition of the Cog munity Hallowe‘en Party was success and the coâ€"operation of the teachers, Home and School Association made it possible. The members of the orchestra have faith and will work and it may prove.to be a concert group worth listening to in the future. > The "flints" used in cigarette lighters are not real flint but an alloy of cerium and iron produc«d by an electroâ€"metallurgical proâ€" cess.

Surviving are his widow, the former Jean Murray, bis parents, Mr. and Mrs. George Bushell, Weston; a brother in Dawson City, Yukon, and a sister, Mrs. F. Gerdes, Weston. Interâ€" ment took place in Park Lawn Cemetery. Coninued from page 4â€" point out at this time, that never before had Weston ever held an Ontario Hockey _ Championship. Having seen all the games, it really made me feel proud to live in Weston and have such a team represent our town. Letters to the Editor Colored Film On Leather Carving To Be Presented Now, I ask youâ€"Is this what the People of Weston want? When the Lions Club took PUBLIC SUBâ€" SCRIPTION for funds for the arena, they stressed the fact we would be supporting the YOUTH of the TOWN. If our boys are not going to be allowed to play in the Arena, it seems to me they gave false representation. Would you, the People of Weston, rather see our boys play in OUR Arena, or some other team unknown to us. . I, for one, am for the WESTON FELLOWS. I don‘t believe in treating a Championship team this way. WHAT DO YOU SAY WE Do SOMETHING ABOUT IT??? SINCERELY, A SPORTSâ€" MINDED CITIZEN This year the boys were looking forward to retaining this Chamâ€" pionshi; by playing their home games in our newly built arena, but they have been told they will not be able to play in our arena. Our Weston boys will not be able to play in our arena BUT another Jnuior Team with perhaps ONE Weston boy on it will be playing in our arena instead. â€" The November meeting of the Leathercraft Guild will be held at Central United Church rooms on Tuesday, Nov. 8, at 8.30 p.m. Arrangements ‘ have been made at that time for a color and sound film on &he "Art of Leather Carvâ€" ing." There will also be a display of tooled and carved articles from Vancouver. There will be a silver collection to defray expenses. Anyâ€" one interested in Leathercraft is cordially invited. Any new memâ€" bers to the Guild will be welcomed. The following meeting will be held early in December and arrangements are being made by the Canadian Handicrafts Guild to have as our guest speaker, Miss Frances Neil of the Ontario Colâ€" lege of Art. Miss Neil is a gold medallist of the College of Art and her address should be very worth while. eA BANQUETS _ PARTIES PHONE 1000 Â¥. W. C. A. LY.

Last week a North Bay baby stricken with dysentery, came to the Sick Children‘s Hospital after a wild 65â€"mileâ€"anâ€"hour ride in a borrowed taxi from his home. The baby‘s father D. Leboeuf drove the car as far as Barrie where he ran out of gas, and the baby had to be transferred to a police cruiser to finish the trip. The father followed as soon as he had filled his gas tank. Mr. and Mrs. Leboeuf had no place to sleep in Toronto except in their car, until kindâ€"hearted _ hospitat _ officials found a room for them for the night.
