Industrial; S. Tinker. member- ship; R. Paris, Retail; and A. Uren. Civic Improvement. The Industrial Committee received special praise for the excellent strides it is mak- ing in assessing the industrial po- tential of the village. ' The members made a substan- tial donation to Richmond Hill’s Coronation bleachers. It is ex- pected that regular meetings will be suspended during July and Aug- ust.

Lion Basil Mundy emphasized that, al- though Mr; Brown had lost his eyesight when he was 5 years old, he had been rehabilitated and was leading an almost normal life. Mr. Brown is a graduate of the Uni- versity of British Columbia and has been with the C.N.I.B. for six years. Edward G. Brown of the Public Relations Department of the Tor- onto branch of the Canadian Nat- ional Institute for the Blind was guest speaker at the Lions Club last Thursday evening. Mr. Brown gave several examp- les of how the Institute encourages blind people to overcome their handicap and regain their happi- ness. He also spoke on two pro- jects which will affect this area. Next Fall. the CNIB will be calling for volunteers in York County to form a local Advisory Board to aid the blind. He also mentioned the proposed building to be erected in Toronto in 1954 to accommodate 150 blind people who have no home. This project will cost ap- proximately $3.000,000 and exten- sive campaigning will begin next year. Lion Jack Hart presented the customary box of roses to the speaker. AURORA : Members of the local Women‘s Institute have petitioned Council to impose a 9 o’clock cur- few to clear children from'the streets. In his address Mr. Brown told his audience that the Institute had been formed after the first War through the efforts of Col. E. Baker and a group of friends. He emphasized that since that time he services have been elaborated to the present when over 20000 blind people are cared for. The programme of the institute is wide and varied to accommodate those in need of assistance who range in age from 6 months to over 100 years. As a conclusion. Mr. Brown stressed the main achievement for which the C.N.I.B. is striving. “To rebuild confidence and restore hu- man dignity to the blind people of Canada.” At a brief business session Lion Paul Morley. chairman of the Scotchlite campaign for bicycle safety announced that 200 bicycles were taped.

For over a thousand years in Britain the coronation of a monarch has been a brilliant afâ€" fair attended by pomp and splen- dour but it has ever been, above everything else, an impressive re- ligious service. The pageantry was, for many, a highlight, and did much to relieve the drab monotony of ages long ago. Nevertheless every detail of the Abbey service was deeply moving. This does not mean that all cor- onations were equally impressive nor that all monarchs had the same solemn sense of responsibil- ity. For instance. at the corona- tion service of King John, a worthâ€" less scamp. he was plainly indif- ferent to the religious aspect of his coronation and showed impatience at the length of the service. He voiced his annoyances and prepar- ed to leave the Abbey, When it was pointed out that he had not received the Holy Sacrament, he immediately left the building. “And all the people shout- 2 ed and said God save the _' King." emmmmmmmmmummmmmfi Britain. Most of them understood that they were called to a high of- fice where the measure of their greatness would be their willing- ness to serve rather than to be served. That some have failed is simply to say they were human; that others took up their burden, reverently and humbly, is to rec- ognize their worth. mmunuw This flagrant disregard of trad- ition and his scornful attitude to- ward what was regarded as the climax of the service, was some- thing that John never lived down. His subjects were filled with dis- may and disgust and his subse- quent career, marked by hostility and calamity, was attributed to his failure to enter into the deeper meaning of the coronation service. Making allowances for excep- tions. it is probably true that no monarchs have had a greater sense of responsibility than those of +1 5 =5 i g i llllllllll mun» TODAY’S QUOTATION AT OUR YARD FOR PICKUP OR DELIVERY C.

When she came to the throne in 1837. she was an eight- een-year-old girl. Watching her with deep sympathy was the poet, Alfred Tennyson. As the corona- tion service proceeded he looked at her and was quite overcome by her appearance of utter loneliness. Previously when told that she would probably be Queen. she was silent, then said: “I will be good." When one of Britain's greatest poets, Elizabeth Browning, learn- ed that the young queen wept at her coronation. she wrote: She saw no purple shine.

Last Week At Richvale School ill in Lockwood Clinic. Toronto. We welcome to our community Mr. and Mrs. Gates and family who are now occupying the form- er home of Mr. and Mrs. Artantis, Mill Rd. The Junior Girls ball team has kept its winning ways by turning back a determined Thornhill team 12-5 in the first of the best of three play-off games. Another win will keep the championship at Richvale for another year. Empire Day services were held in each class room. The celebra- tions were kept simple in order that it would not overshadow the big plans the area has for the Cor- onation. The students are practis- ing diligently for the big event on the eve of the great day. Their smiling faces were record- ed on film the other day when the photographer came to look over likely future models. They man- aged to smile although they had just come through an ordeal of examinations. To come to more modern times the coronation of the late King George VI was as moving as it was unexpected. After the abdication of his brother the King assumed his duties under trying circum- stances. Many who were present at his coronation could not res- train their emotion as this brave man, evidently reluctant, and with deep humility, took up a burden for which he frankly said, he was unprepared. We welcome the Leitheads to Richvale school. Billy is in grade five and Kathleen in grade three. Luck just doesn't smile for the Senior boys team. They were e1- iminated from the playoffs by 105- ing to Langstaff and in the prev- ious game with Charles Howitt. John White broke his wrist in a collision with a team mate. R. G. SIMPKIN, pictured above, will represent The Liberal and other member papers of the On- tario Division of the Canadian Weekly Newspapers’ Association in Great Britain during the Cor- onation. He will airmail first- hand reports of particular interest to readers of the weeklies back during his tour. He sailed from New York on May 18 and will take delivery of a car on arrival in England. It will be his second trip overseas having served in World War I. Mr. Simpkin has been a reporter for one of Ontar- io's largest weeklies for 25 years and is particularly well versed to speak on the rural scene. The young Queen. soon to be crowned, has much of her father’s charm and simplicity. Her sincer- ity has made a deep impression upon her people and she begins a reign which millions pray, will be marked by peace and goodwill. It is unbelievable that a woman so young and unaffected can carry on without the prayers of her people. and of many who are not part of the commonwealth over which she is to rule. She is a deeply relig- ious woman. without frivolity, yet thoroughly human. For her the coronation service will indeed be a consecration service. Few British sovereigns, in the long list, revealed such a deep sense of reliance upon God and devotion to the inner meaning of his high office. Were happier pageantries! - And while the heralds played their part Those million shouts to drown â€" “God save the Queen" from hill and mart â€" She heard through all her beating heart, And turned and wept: She wept to wear a crown. The impediment in his speech made every address a trying or- deal; yet without self-pity and cer- tainly without reservation, he lined up to his coronation vows. He literally wore himself out by a life of amazing activity and sacrificial living. Once. when in London's sordid east end, a workman took his hand and said: “You are a great King!” The King, humbled by such a spontaneous tribute, took the man’s hand and said: “You are a great people."
