Mr. Ross Dean introduced the speaker. Mr. Bradshaw suggested a gar- den plan with the plots numbered and colour-schemed. One of the essentials in a garden, he explain- ed, is a compost box or hole. Af- ter generalizing on gardens he spoke concerning lawns saying that six inches of topsoil are re- quired before seeding. The best grass seed is the most expensive, about $1.25 a pound, and contains a good percentage of Kentucky blue grass. 5 pounds are required for every 1,000 square feet. For twenty-seven years Dr. Rout- ley was a chief executive officer of the Canadian Red Cross Society. From 1921 to 1927 he was Director of the Ontario Divismn and for the remaining eleven years was National Commissioner for the Red Cross in Canada. In his cap- acity as 'a Red Cross worker he travelled throughout the world. He was for' a time a member of the Board of Governors of the League of Red Cross Societies and Chair- man of its Advisory Health Com- mittee with headquarters in Gen- eva and also Canadian representa- tive on the International Commit- tee of the Red Cross Society. Small Garden Soil Needs Test Thornhill Gardeners Are Told Hedges today are trimmed wrongly, ,Mr. Bradshaw stated, and are often not of hedge variety.

He was a Past Presi- dent of the Canadian Hospital Council and was one ofwthe five mmbers’ of the original committee appointed by the Ontario Hospital Association to develop the Blue Cross plan for hospital care which came into existence in 1941. His outstanding services in the cause of humanity brought him many honours. Among them was the Commander’s Cross of the Or- der of Orange-Nassau awarded by the Netherlands Government in re- cognition of the work which he per- formed acting in an advisory cap- acity to Queen Juliana, then Prin- cess, as she sought to use the Neth- erlands portion' of the Canadian Allied Relief Fund for the best ad- vantage for her people. Ir. 1950 the French Government awarded him the Cross of a Chev- alier of the Legion of Honour and in the same year the Canadian Hos. pital Council awarded him the George Finlay Stephens Memorial Award for 1950 as one who was considered to have made the most significant contribution to Canada.

It is interesting to note that he “sang his way” through'Univer- sity and was soloist in several Tor- onto churches.

Kent Addresses Thornhill Women’s Institute “The Community” was the topic of the talk given by Rev. E. E. Kent, Th. D., minister of Thornhill United Church at the regular monthly meeting of the Thornhill Women’s Institute last week. “It is estimated that three-quar- ters of the world’s population lives in villages and it is there that you find true fellowship,” Mr. Kent said. He stressed its value, add- ing that true fellowship dispels ra- cial and sectarian discrimination. In discussing community organi- zations, he expressed the opinion that the Recreational Committee recently formed in Thornhill was a good thing. He advocated the formation of a community council to eliminate the overlapping of welfare work and the duplication 0f events on the same night, as members could be appointed by the various church, sen/ice and other organizations. Mr. Kent’s talk was full of every-day illustrations and Mrs. P. Bone extended to him the warm thanks of the ladies pres- ent. The roll call replies were the good deeds done during Sunshine Month with members telling of visits to shut-ins, having old peop- le in to tea, etc. Mrs. E. Mchean, Mrs. R. Holmes and Mrs. P. Bone all past presidents, were appointed the nominating committee for the Hobby Show, Scroll & Log Book Interest Residents Of Richvale The combined efforts of the Guide and Scout organizations of Richvale produced a show calculat- ed to interest and please a variety of tastes on Saturday afternoon in the school. i The display of the Scroll and Log Book, which was the special prov- ince of the Guides and Brownies was held in the portable section of the school. Here it was received from Divisional Commissioner Mrs. D. R. Gunn by District Commis- sioner Mrs. R. F. Paul, Brown Owl Mrs. Frank Purvis, and Tawny Owl Mrs. F. Bigley. Scoutmaster C. E. A. Smith, A. C.M. Mrs. Millard, A.S.M. H. Ince, A.C.M. Mrs. H. Good, and Scouts and Cubs and visitors also attended the reception. A guard of honour, composed alternately of Guide Pat- rols and Brownie Sixes, which was changed every quarter hour, was on duty during its stay. In another room the Guides, Scouts, Brownies and Cubs brought tangible evidence of their hobbies, including live specimens of furry animals, feathered friends and goldfish, none of which latter seem- ed in the least impressed by the attention‘ they received. The work on view showed how diversified are the interests of children of Rich- vale and What pains they take. The scrapbodks in several cases were begun some years ago and were handsomely arranged. The needle- work showed fine attention to de- tail and was well done, and the shell work was captivating. The bird houses were interest- ing and should prove to be snug little homes for feathered house- ‘hunters this spring. Aeroplane models, boats, a tank model, bits of Stan Worsdale was ' appointed chairman and to take care of pub- licity, Mrs. Wes.

The first project to be consider- ed is a community hall and the Re- creational Committee plans to look over the park on Sunday for suit- able sites. At the meeting there was considerable discussion on ways and means of raising funds. The Langstaff Recreational Committee met last Monday at the home of F1jed Morris, Langstaff representative oh the Vaughan Townsihp Recreational Commiss- non. Mr. Morris advised that he had arranged for Mr. Eilbeck of the Community Programmes Branch of the Department of Education to speak to the residents of Langstafi‘, in both Markham and Vaughan Sections, on Tuesday, February 27 in Langstaff Public School at 7.30 pm. All organizations are invited to attend.

Indiscriminate use of such headlines as “Is Hockey Dying?", has contributed little more than added fuel for controversy. But the answer to the ‘declining interest’ problem in hockey can probably be found in the game itself. Let‘s examine the pros and cons. In the older days the game was a slower affairâ€"with the accent on individual ater and method. Today the fans are treated to 60-minutes of ‘all out' hockey, played by men. continually fresh. aided by renovated rules and systems. If hockey is slipping, it can’t be through lack of These and a dozen other opinions are trotted out ea‘ch time a new prophecy of doom strikes at the game through the sport pages. And yet. it was to please the fans that the game was speeded up to the point where it requires 18 players to maintain the constant action. drive and excitement necessary to attract the multitude. The Red Line was created to de- termine ‘ofi-side' passes and do away with the older system of long-distance passing which. all too often. was utilized as a measure of easing the pace. Constant substitutionand chang- ing lines ‘on the run' are two other methods which have assisted greatly in speeding up the sport from a Spectatog Point of view. As to the claim that few modern players could play the‘60«minute'game, it is only necessary to point out Milt Schmidt of Boston. g. . Ted Kennedy of the Leafs and a dozen others specializing in 'hcll forlleather' hockey. These men could certainly play alongside Babe Dye, Cyclone Taylor or any other oldtimer you chooseâ€"but. admittedly, they would have to ‘pace' themselves to last the route. Therein lies the story. we think. Pro and Con: In the Good Old Days (we're told) hockey players went a full 60 minutes and usually finished the evening full of vigor and vitality. “No wonder hockey today is passing out," states an ancient fan. "Why. the boys who are playing now turn blue in the face after three minutes of play!" Others chant: “They mined hockey when they put the Red Line into the game." , Coal - Coke - Wood Let The Street Fleet Deliver Telephones - Richmond Hill 156 - Willowdale 682 RICHMOND HILL FARMERS’ FEEDâ€"“SUPPLY TELEPHONE 139 TOWING SERVICE - REPAIRS - WELDING Specially prepared by a prominenf Canadian sport; authorify for SAME FRIENDLY SERVICE Nick’s Auto Shop C.

That's an eternityâ€"when suspense in what is for sale. Although we have not always managed to keep an accurate check on the statistical side of the bouts. it appears that the married men have easily held their own. No doubt practice helps. Actually, the fact there are more married men playing professional hockey than single may also account for the high casualty list among referees.
