TEE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill, Thursday, Sept. 27, 1951 The Salvation Army has a saying that the word “hOpeless” isn’t in God’s dictionary. It also believes that God gen- erally works through human instrument- ality. Such a belief often involves Salva- tion Army Officers in works of mercy that test compasion to the limit and faith,to the utmost. The success, however, that the Salva- tion Army has had in dealing with the distressed and the despairing, the defeated and the dissolute, has commended its ac- tivities to Canadians everywhere. The local Red Shield Campaign Committee highly endorses the international program of The salvation Army. ‘ An interesting inquiry was recently conducted by a committee of the parishâ€" ioners of the Church of St. Mary Immac- ulate in charge of a turkey supper and ba- zaar to be held next Wednesday in the ar- ena. One of the points raised in the com- mittee’s questionaire had to do with the reasons residents have for making their homes in this village or district. The reas- ons advanced lacked any great variety, the principal one being that the power of the community to attract folks centres in its home-like characteristics. Visitors also have often noted that the art of be- ing a. good neighbor Richmond Hill people Almost every Salvation Army Officer can provide dramatic stories of blasted lives, impoverished families, storieo~ of crime and tragedy, of mistakes and fail- Camp Ahshunyoong was organized in 1931 for the purpose of providing camp 'rivileges fer the~boys and girls of North ork.

Cabins that will accommodate eight campers each will take care of 80 campers. There is adequate accommoda- tion for astaff of twenty leaders with special nurses’ cabin, directors, cooks and camp supervisor.

Most of the stories, fortunately, have a happy ending. In Canada more than one hundred Salvation Army social service institutions, plus a multitude of various services, help in assuring that “hlappy ending” to many a sad and sorry ta e. v“. Residents of Richmond Hill and dis.- trict have an opportunity in the current Red Shield Appeal to help The Salvation Army maintain its good works.

Self congratulations are, of course, seldom if ever in order, but_per'- fihfié’the accuracy of this unanimous judg- ment entitles us to think fairly well df ourselves. ’ The aforementioned turkey supper in a sense offers us an opportunity to evi- dence this spirit of good neighborliness. Nowhere in the entire pI‘OVinCe perhaps will a better meal be served at an ex- tremely attractive price than the one at the arena next Wednesday evening, the price being made possible by the free and loving labor of many hands. ults. There is also a library, reading room with a nice stone fireplace. ‘ The camp operates practiCally from May 24 to the middle of September. Dur- ing July and ‘August it is in constant use by teen-age boys and girls. Then day camps are conducted at a nominal charge of $12 for the period. In the Spring and early Fall the camp site is used for long week-ends by church Young Peoples Groups and C.G.I.T. The Junior Farmers have for three years had one week around the Labour Day week-end. Occasionally a Sunday School picnic comes here such as Newmarket this summer. Approxim- ater 700 ’teenâ€"age boys and girls have ens joyed these camp facilities this summer. Die camp is operated on a non-profit basis and is only maintained by consider- able voluntary labour and cash donations from interested individuals and organiza- tiOns. The maintenance of such a camp involves considerable financial‘help just to keep the buildings in shape and for gener- al expenses. Extra support is still needed for special projects long overdue and which would contribute gain to an im- proved pljograin for boys and girls.

West Langstaff Ratepayers As~ scciation was to have held its nom- inations of officers for the forth- cgming‘ season at the regular meet- ing‘ scheduled 'for last Monday ev- ening.

The treasurer reported sufficient funds to enable the Library to continue under the 'present system. The possibility of the Library Associa- tion being changed to a Public Li- brary that would be maintained by the‘taxpayers was considered. The Library is fintergsted in col- lecting early records of the district and would like to start a section devoted to C'ariadiana. During the preceding season, no fewe; than 19 public bodies working in the municipal interest have used the room for their meetings, and this service will continue. um. The school is aVailable to the association one evening a month and so the executive decided that the nominations would be com- Bined with the elections which the constitution calls for at the regul- ar October meeting. A copy of “A King’s Story” by the Duke of Windsor has been pre- sented to the library by Mrs. Geo. Dean, in memory of her daughter Mary. We are most grateful for this donation and wish to thank Mrs. Dean. Since the library moved to its new location, the circulation has increased enormously and it is dif- ficult to buy enough books to satisâ€" fy the demand. If any readers have books of current interest they can spare, they would be welcome. As our shelf space is limited, how- ever, we would like to reserve the right to return or pass on any books that the Librarian feels would not circulate at this time. Those present Monday evening took part in an informal discuss‘ io of points of policy, the purpose of the organization and problems and suggested improvements. It appeared that a number of people were under the impression that the Langstafl’ Recreation Committee was a sub-committee of the West Langstafl" Ratepayers Association because some of the members serve on both. The'association has an entertainment committee of its own whereas the Langstaff Re- creation Committee is answerable to the Vaughan Township Recreat- ional Commission. When Mr. Fred Morris was asked by the Commiss- ion to arrange for a committee to be formed if Langstafl’ wished to avail itself of the grants and fac- ilities aVailable for recreation. fep- resentatives of the Langstaf’f Rate- payers_Association for Markham residents and of the West Lang- stafl" Association were invited to join to make it a truly Langstafl' affair, not split by an imaginary line at Yonge Street.

An important thought brought forward Monday evening, was the suggestion of amalgamation of the two Langstaff ratepayers as- sociations if both favoured the idea. .We are sorry to report that Mrs. F.
