The area covered will be as follows: Elgin Mills side road to Carrvillc Side-road from North to South and from Bayview to Bathurst East and West. This area is to be divided 8â€" mong several leaders, who will be supplied with check lists of birds it is possible to see within 20 miles of the Museum in To- ronto. The Naturalists taking part in this census are asked to report buck to the home of Dr. Lillian C.

The fact that recreaâ€" tion is a very necessary part of normal life has long been accept- ed by educational authorities. Square dancing is more than just dancing. Besides being fun. it is also a form of recreational therapy â€" a tonic for family acâ€" tivity, an opportunity to meet new friends and a cure for worâ€" ries. It forms an excellent hasâ€" is for a democratic community because it completely destroys the social caste system. The only introduction required in a dance is a pleasant “bow to your part- ner and corners all”. A great part of its popularity is due to the fact that there is no age barrier. It appeals to teen-agers as well as to their grandparents. Another intriguing factor is that it satisfies the urge to dress up. Rural dancers don their best Stinday clothes for an evening out while their city cousins preâ€" fer Western garb and loud colors in casual clothes. Historic Form The history of this form of dancing is rather interesting too. The square formation of the dance originated from a game in ancient Greece and latei- a noble- man of the early French court was inspired to put it to music and have a quadrille dance. It was used as a quadrille in‘ Engâ€" land and was brought to Canada by the early settlers. Here it was modified into our tradition- al Canadian folk dance; which Receives Licence Sunday Morning R.H.KaneAppolnted Lay Reader, Anglican Church At last Sunday morning’s ser- vice held in St. Mary’s Anglican Church, Richmond Hill, R. H. Kane. well-known business man in this area was presented with :1 Lay Reader‘s Licence granted by Bishop F. H. Wilkinson of the Diocese of Toronto. The Rector. the Rev. A. An Chote, made the presentation and presented to Mr. Kane 3 Lay Reader’s Badge on behalf of the Churchwardens, Harry Stanford and'T. P. Henry, after reading the following testimonial: “In every Church there is al- ways a handful of people who rarely miss a service in the Church â€" morning or evening â€"â€" winter or summer. We here at St. Mary's Anglican Church, Richmond Hill. have such a group. I can think of such people as Harry Stanford, Mrs. Pocknell, Mrs. Hall and Mr. Scrivener as some of these peop- le. And there is another who since I have come to this Parish, hasn‘t missed more than two or three services, morning or ev- ening, during this entire period. That person is Mr. Harry Kane.' We all know Mr. Kane to be a most devoted member who is willing to do whatever he can for the Church. He it is. who plays the chimes every Sunday morning and evening. He it is who puts the hymn numbers up on the hymn boards for every service. You can count on Harry to act as Sidesman at those mid- week services that are sparsely attended. Wednesday evening he can be counted upon to attend choir practice. When the Rec- tor‘s voice gets a little tired, Har- ry is always there to read the Lessons at the evening service and to take the Collects. Mr. Harry Kane has served our church long and well, holding many of the senior offices such as Sidesman, Lay Delegate to Synod, Representative on the Ad- visory Council, Vestry Clerk 1when Ted Mansbridge served in the armed forcesi. and he has been singing in choir work since 1913. It is with a great deal of pleas- ure that I have the honour this morning to make him this special presentation.~As a token of the high esteem in which we hold him, and to give him the proper authority he should possess in asâ€" sisting with the services of this church, the Bishop of Toronto has been pleased to grant Mr. Kane. 3 Lay Reader’s Licence. The Bishop has written asking that I express his very best wish- es to Mr. Kane as he takes on this new appointment. On behalf of the Wardens and myself, may I have the honour of presenting to him this Licence and Lay Reader's Badge and may our Lord be pleased to grant him many years of continued service in His Church.“ Presbyterian Christmas Party Sunday SchOol Awards Presented At'Concert A capacity crowd was in at- tendance Monday night for the annual Sunday School Christ- at Richmond Hill Presbyterian Church when ap- 300 were present.

Relaxation Modern high pressure living is surely taking its toll on the mental and physical health of the people. They need some- where to relax. to forget their problems and enjoy themselves without worry. They find it here. The iherapueiic value of Square dancing lies, in lilt of the music and the simplicity of the activi- 1y The (lancer is not required to learn a square dance. He Merely follows a few basic fig- ures such as “do-so-do". “grand chain" as “promenade. which are used by the caller to form a fig- urc. It is a sort of followâ€"the- leadcr idea â€" the thinking is all done by the caller while the dancers merely follow the “call”. This is a very agreeable situaâ€" tion for the dancer because it requires no memory, no decisions and a minimum of talent.
