The bride was the former Norma King of Keswick. The groom is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Treanor Canning of Markham Township. S. J. Carlisle. general sales manager of the firm, states that the company’s: recently improved parking lots have been a real boon to their clients. So many 0“ our customers use the rear en- trances we have been obliged to adjust some of our reception areas, states Mr. Carlisle. September sales have passed all expectations at the busy of- fices of David McLean Ltd., Realtors, where salesmen and prospective buyers have been ac- tive. ~ Although the supply of homes for sale made available to them has continued to grow in gratify- ing numbers each month, 'the McLean firm are again having difficulty obtaining enough list- ings and are appealing for more houses and building lots. The most poular house in cur- rent demand .is the $13,000 to $18,000 home with three bed- rooms and purchasers prefer the areas between Bayview and Bath- urst. older homes too have be- come increasingly popular with Sept. Sales Passed Expectations David McLean Ltd. Announces Anglican Sunday School Of The Air In 1905 Archdeacon Lloyd of the Diocese of Quâ€"Appelle, Sas- katchewan started to mail outl Sunday School lessons to boys and girls who lived too far away to attend a regular Sunday school. Little did he think that by 1958 this would grow into the world's largeSt Sunday school, with an estimated registration of 34,000. The Sunday school by mail and radio is now conducted by the Anglican Church of Can- ada to provide religious instruc- tion for children living in the ‘remote areas of Canada where regular Sunday schools are not possible‘ Assisting in the enrollment of students for the Sunday School by mail, the Canadian Sunday School Caravan Mission organ- ized by Miss Eva Hasell has been invaluable. The vanners visit families in scattered areas in 15 dioceses during the sum- mer months. When a child is registered Sun~ day school papers are sent out each month. Assignments are completed and returned to the secretary for the Sunday School by mail for the diocese. In May the pupils write the G.B.R.E. ex~' ams. This year 644 Sunday school pupils wrote the examinations. 7 Another part of this work which has grown in importance in recent years is the Sunday school of the air. From one coast of Canada to the other \‘ari~ ous radio stations broadcast the specially prepared tapes of Sun- day school lessons each week during the winter months. These broadcasts are prepared hv the Reverend Canon Geoffrey Wilson in Edmonton. In the Diocese of Toronto the Sunday school of the air is broad-‘ cast on Sunday mornings (Octo- ber 5, 1958, to March 29, 1959) at 9:30 over CFRE and at 9:10 over CHFI-FM. Miss Mabel Jones, 43 Davies Crescent. Toron- to 6.'is the diocesan secretary. Children who live in places where there is no regular Sun- day school or who are unable to attend because of illness are in- vited to enroll in this Sunday chool. Lucky Draw Dec. York County WA. The York County Hospital Women’s Auxiliary has just an- nounced a lucky draw will take place at the York County Hospi- tal Gift Shop. December 19, when a 17" portable television set, an oil painting and a set of dolls (mother and three children) will go to some lucky persons. Tickets which are 25 cents each or 6 for $1.00 will be on sale with all local merchants and at “The Liberal" office. All the proceeds are for YorkICounty Hospital work. Mrs. W. C. Cowan. 47 Church St. N.. Richmond Hill is ticket convenor for this area. Additional sales staff are being interviewed as the aggressive north end company continues to expand and applications are be- ing accepted by Mr. Carlisle at Thornhill. the accent on spaciousness and trees. The new David McLean office that is to open at Yonge & Finch Avenue, on October lst, will bring the total to five McLean branch offices on North Yonge Street. With their recently broad- ened and continually expanding field of operations the McLean executives feel that they are able to provide the most complete service in all phases of Metro- politan Toronto and North end real estate. ' Leadership Course Local Jaycees Thursday, September 25, the Richmond Hill Jaycees and friends met for their second din- ner meeting at the Richmond Hill Theatre Grill. It was membership participation night and First Vice President Murray McLeod was in the chair. When coffee was served, Mrs. Malcolm Thompson gave a short talk on the coming V.O.N. Can- vass, and got the Jayeeés prepar- ed for this worthwhile drive. Several announcements were then giVen, one in particular caught the attention of many members: a district convention to be held in Newmarket on Sunday, Octo- ber 5. ‘ ‘ Following the announcements, Leadership Chairman Bernie Crane led off with the importâ€"‘ ance of leadership training. Then First Vice-President Murray Mc- Leod distributed I.Q. looking sheets and asked the fellows to complete them. What answers! He then showed the fellows how next time they can do better. Past President John Turner then led the Jaycees in a brainstorming session. In the short time that John had this Session, several fruitful ideas developed on a Richmond Hill Jaycee convention garb and on future projects. Lea- dership Chairman Bernie wound up this part of the evening with a surprise. Under each chair was a one dollar bill! A For those who stayed to take the effective speaking course. George Nablo then kicked off with, (a: how to stand when giv- ing a speech and (b) how to intro- duce a speaker. Each chap then go” up to the! podium and amid fear and trepidation gave a little impromptu speech. a ni_L-M “Hr- -77“, This Javyceé meeting of Septem- ber 25th was one; qf the pest and mast well attended meetings the Richmond Hill Unit has had and the next meeting, to be held on October 9th, and which will in- clude a 3w members induction ceremony is shaping up to be of the same calibre. District Presi- -dent Gord Schottlander will be the special guest for that meeting. TRY LIBERAL CLASSIFIEDS PHONE TU. 4-1105 SOMETHING TO SELL SOMETHING TO RENT SOMETHING WANTED ‘UniversityWomenAcross‘ Canada' - Theme Meeting A large number of women from" all parts of York County assem- bled at Kingcraft House. King City, on the evening of September 22 for the first fall meeting of the University Women's Club of York County. Mrs. Barbara ’3. Langstafi‘ of Richmond Hill spoke on “University Women Across Canada," reporting on the high- lights of the 14th Triennial Conâ€" ference of the Canadian Federat- ion of University Women which she attended in Montreal early in August as an afiicial delegate of the York County Club. During the evening Mrs. Lang- stafl‘ passed along to members the club’s official charter which had been presented to her by Dr. Doris B. Saunders retiring Presidnt of the C.F.U.W., at the conference's closing banquet held in Montreal's new Queen Eliz- abeth Hotel. Study Groups Formed .St, iation for Adult Another highlight of the even- ing was the formation of a study group for members on “World Politics” to be conducted by Mr. Edward Loury under the Ford‘ Foundation and the Canadian As- Education.‘ The course is to commence on October 1 and run for 10 weeks until December 3. Plans were laid also for a study group in French conversation and another on local history, Report On Triennial Mrs. Langstaf’f who was intro- duced to her audience by Mrs. Bruce Davis of King, expressed great admiration and enthusiasm for the work being carried on by the C.F.U.W. in such fields as education. penal reform, the status of women, and the preserv- ation of historical sites. Her re- port gave York County Women as participants in a comparatively new club. an awareness of what membership in the C.F.U.W. “family” really means, and the scope of the problems with which individual clubs concern themâ€" selves in community, provincial and natural life. Education Chief Interest uuuvuv-v... As Mrs. Langstafi pointed out; education continues to be the chief concern of such clubs, and projects in this field include giv- ing leadership to effect reforms in educational policy and pract- ice: endeavouring to .make avâ€" ailable good books in school and community libraries; getting an opportunity for the gifted child to develop all his powers; endeav- ouring to get French taught in earlier years, and of course, the awarding of fellowships to wor- thy individuals. Status of Women Important work is also car- ried on by the Status of Women Committee of the C.F.U.W. and by individual clubs in this field. Efforts of late have been conâ€" centrated on recommended chan- ges in the proposed new federal Estate Tax Bill which. as present- ly drafted, does not recognize the contribution made by a wife to the marriage partnership. Other subjects under study are equal ‘pay, jury service for women, dower legislation. domicile. the older woman worker, and adopt- ion laws. ‘ Historical Sites Preserved Another worthy project under- taken during this triennium by the C.F.U.W. were its efforts to preserve the historical and archâ€" itectural aspects of the area afâ€" fected by the St. Lawrence Pow- er Development. Many old build- ings of great historical value. gravestones of U. E. Loyalists settlers, etc., which Would other- wise have been razed or destroy- ‘ed by floodwayters, have been pre- served through the representat- ions made by our university wom- en in co-operation with other in- terested groups. Libraries and Creative Arts Over the past three years there has been a lively and increasing interest in and. support of lib- FOR PROMPT PICK UP CALL TU. 4-441? PROFESSIONALLY DONE Same Day Service raries and the creative arts among university women's clubs. Mem- bers are active in library boards from the local to the international level. Some clubs give gifts of books. equipment or money to libraries. In the field of creative arts. the larger clubs have study groups in the arts, invite mem- lbers of the Canada Council as \speakers, have members who ser- ve on boards of art organizations or themselves contribute to the arts by writing in prose or verse, exhibiting paintings. etc. In the field of international relations, the CtF.U.W. works in close co-operation with the In- ternational Federation of Univer- sity Women, and at the time of the great exodus from Hungary its work with the refugeqs came to the fore. At the conference in Montreal, Mrs. Langstaff found particularly interesting study groups which were formed on the literature of nine countries. Asia, Africa. Braz- il, China, France, Germany, India; Japan and Russia. Individual clubs had been reading widely on the theme of the Montreal Con- ference, “Candles of Understand- ing - a study of the plight and pleasures of man," as depicted in contemporary literature. an at- tempt to find areas of understan- ding through the literature of the various countries. The theme proved a popular one and resulted in some very stimulating dis- cussions in the conference study groups. Thanks Speaker Mrs. Langstaff ended her re- marks by thanking the club for the privilege of attending the Montreal conference as its of- ficial delegate. The speaker was thanked by President, Mrs. Chees- brough of King for her intellig- ent and interesting report. Fol- lowing the study group enrol- ment. refreshments were served and a special half hour enjoyed by the members. .n . . ‘1 u, u“. ...v...r,, V, The next meeting will be held on Monday evening, October 27, at Kingcraft House 8.15 p.m.. and the club welcomes any university women in the County who are interested in attending.
