During the war years the funds were used mainly for war work, although local inter- ests were covered too, but now plans are centred on our own community, and by attending the sale you will not only be benefitting yourself but advancing the interests of the com- munity. Thornhill was the scene of another accident last week when Miss H. Holmes of this district received bruises and shock when in collision with a car. According to Constable A. Harrison, Miss Holmes was crossing Yonge St. at the time. Congratulations are in order to Mr. B. Weldrick on his re-election as Reeve of Vaughan Township. M1'. Weldrick has served the council since 1932. The recent snowfall and the pres- ent cold weather brings wmter sports into prominence once more, and last week-end saw many skiers treking north, and the hills around Thornhill were very popular. A hockey cushion has [been markul off in the skating rink in the Park, grading has been completed. and the hockey boards are in place with the exception of a small amOunt of lum‘ her whiph still has to be purchased.

The meeti’lg was callâ€" ed primarily for the purpose of electâ€" ‘ing a group committee, and Mr. Sparrow, chairman of the York Cen- tral District, acted as chairman of the meeting, having been introduced l by 7 Mrs Edwards. ' eéember 3 saw District Commissioner Clarke Locke spoke of the fine things that had been done here and said that many good scouts had been turned out. Mr. Harry Swabey has been appointed Honorary Scoutmaster, and incidentally he is the first honorary scoutmaster in our district. Mr. J. Harwood, Field Commis- sioner who has made a professiOn of scouting, was then introduced by Mr. Locke. Mr. Harwood gave an intelligent address on the qualities 3 Scout must possess in order to become a good one, uhow their initi- ative is called into play, and of the position a parent should take in this regard. The necessity of a Group committee was then explained. Scouts and Cubs in any community should be under the guidance or con- trol of a group of senior people in the community, and it is their busi- ness to see that the boys have prop- er leaders as well as a place in which to meet. A senior scout group, called Rover Crew, and made up largely of Lans- ing and Willowdale boys, may have their headquarters at York Mills. Reports of the various committees were then given by Barbara Neil, Yvonne Swabey, Mrs. Broderick, Mr. Edwards and Mr. Jackson. Mr. .Swaibey expressed his thanks for the honour conferred upon him and Mr. Grainger explained why he has been unable to act as scoutmaster this season, which was on account of business. Mr. Edwards then spOke of the necessity of securing a meeting place for both the Cubs and Scouts. A small cottage has been offered for this purpose, the cost to be around $500. In this connection, Mr. Ed- wards has received some donations already. All donations to Scouts are exempt from income tax, and anyone wishing to contribute, please get in touch with Mr. Edwards. At the present time, the boys have no prop- er place to meet in and it is albso« luter necessary that some building should be made available in a cen- tral location.

Also a group of these young people intend ~to go down to Toronto on Sunday night next to see the Christ- mas Pageant at Holy Trinity church. Trinity Anglican Sunday School Christmas entertainment is to be held on December 27th in the Far- ish Hall. It was suggested that the leaders of certain groups in the Village be approached with regard to backing the Scouts, and the president of the W.I., Mrs. Swa-bey, and Mrs. Brod- erick as president of the women's auxiliary, are automatically included on the group committee. Pte. Sam Johnson, son of Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Johnson of John St., ov- erseas for more than two years, is with the Army Service Corps near Amsterdam. Sam was an instructor of truck drivers at Camp Borden where he took two or three courses before going overseas. Although he does not expect to get home before Spring, Sam says they are very busy repairing in a garage, working in- side instead of out as formerly; they are living in cabins now instead of tents and are getting good food, so although he would like to be home for Christmas, he is content to stay. The election of a group committee was then conducted by ballot and t“e following names were selected: B. Edwards, G. Giles, R. H. Neil, L. Jamieson, J. McNeil], T. Jackson, C. Jaeger, A. Sumner, J. R. Sumner, F. Haines. A meevting_ of this Group Commit- tee has been called for Monday night next. It is most gratifying to know that Miss Gillian Watson who underwent an operation recently is coming along nicely, although still confined to hos- pital. _,, _ - . “u Watch your Japonica, or Flowerâ€" ing Quince, this winter.
