Thanks to John Paul of Weston and his descendants. the War- bricks of Bolton, the letter books of a York and Toronto merchant of over a century ago are now among the original documents in the collection of the Toronto Public Library. They are the subject of a notable contribution in the recently issued Year Book entitled, “Alexander Wood, Mer- chant of York.” The author is Miss Edith G. Firth, a member of the society and of the re- search staff of the Toronto Pub- lic Library. Wood's dwelling and place of business was at the north-west corner of Frederick ‘and King Streets and it is reâ€" corded that “the first sidewalk on the muddy footpaths of York was put down before Mr. Wood’s store." He came to Toronto in 1797 and until his death in 1884 he was identified with the pro- vincial capital's public and mer- cantile affairs. Those years cov- ered the change from Toronto to York and included the negotia- tions following the surrender of York in 1813 and the destruction The pioneer centre being de- veloped at Sharon in associa- tion with the Temple of Peace is described in the year book of the York Pioneer and Historical So- ciety recently received by the public library.

Restorations at the house of Eb- enezer Doan, master builder of the Temple, reveal the skilled craftsmanship in the construction of this early example of a framed house.

When cutting roses it is of utmost importance to av- oid injuring the bushes. Always use a sharp knife or a very sharp pair of pruners or scissors.

She had the distinction of exhibiting at the first Royal Winter Fair in 1923 and was the only continuous exhibitor in the horse classes right up to and including last year. Her grand- daughter, Betty Rae, did the showing for Mrs. Davison.

Produced by two young men with amazing ability, 'John H. Burrows and Leonard J. Acker- man for Allied Artists, “Al Ca- pone" was made with an eye to stark reality, with no punches pulled. Starring one of Hollywood's all- time great actors, Rod Steiger, the man who won an Academy Award nomination for his stirring work in “On the Waterfront,” “Al Capone” comes to the screen only after years of research and painstaking preparation.

Hybrid tea roses usually have three leaflets at the top of the rose stem and below that a spray of five leaflets. To cut blooms from these cut just above the top- most leaflets if the stem is weak. If the stem is pencil thick the cut may be made lower. Remove flowers after petals fall to maintain the energy of the plant. The best time to cut roses. is late in the afternoon and cut the bud just before petals start to un- fold. Black spot is the most import- ant disease to plague roses, and all varieties of roses popular to- day are susceptible to it. The spots on the leaves are black or dark brown and distinctive. Small spots may appear on flower parts and on the stem. These are known as cankers. To control Black Spot use a suitable fungicide on the foliage before infectiOn occurs. Fungicides that contain captan or fermate are effectual. Application should be made every ten days and after rains. During dry spells apply every twp or three weeks.

Haggai-t, Rich- mond Hill Town Council Monday night decided to instruct the sol- icitor to‘draw up a licencing by- law for the municipality. main stem Besides being “a study in evil” “Al Capone" carefully recreates that era in American history when graft and corruption were the order of the day: an era made possible, according to many, by the law of prohibition which turned out to be a boon to wrong- doers. Unlike the average crime pic- ture, “Al Capone” does not in any way glorify a gangster. Rather, it merely ’records the law-break- ing activities of one man. Capone, who considered himself above the law. Through it runs a love story telling the saga of a woman, play- ed by Fay Spain, who tried to be- lieve in Capone but who, too late, found out she was dealing with a monster. The licence f-ee ranges from $25 for an auctioneer, driving school, milk or bread truck, to $500 for a transient trader. The fee for a lodging room licence will be $10., “Councillor Haggart in intro- ducing the resolutiopmstgted ht; u-~._-° .....- _-V, f ‘t there is a very definite need for such a by-law and the present one is only the first of Wm stages in dealing with the matter.

Cancer Campaign Quota Realized i jet/[ting By Doris M. FitzGerald The old adage that “everybody complains about the weather but nobody does anything about it." has no longer a basis in fact for top ranking meteorologists, in 102 countries, are observing and studying every phase of the wea- ther as it affects agriculture, hy- drology, and travel by sea or air, the world over. While these scientists do not expect to control the weather, they are making it easier for mankind to anticipate. and cope, with its vagaries by advance warnings of storms, hurâ€" ricanes. etc. Every four years their findings are tabled and dis- cussed at the World Meteorolog- ical Congress held in Geneva, Switzerland. The congress had its actual beginnings about 80 years ago as a small voluntary organ- ization of meteorologists which became, first international, and then world wide in scope. Finally, in order to keep pace with the tremendous post war develop- r.ents it .was made one of the im- portant special agencies of the United Nations. in 1951. In April of this year Mr. Pat- rick D. McTaggart-Cowan, Assoc- iate Director of Canadian Meteor- ological Services, and a Trustee of Thornhill Police Village, was on of the 300 delegates attend. ing the most recent World Met- eorological Congress, in Geneva. During the month long confer- ence the work of the past 4 yeafs was reviewed, and also the ac- complishments of the Geophysical year which ended on December 31, 1958. The programme for the next four years was drawn up, and an eighteen member ex- ecutive elected. This latter body will meet once a year ‘3 deal with any suggestions and problems ar- ising before the next Congress. The complete scientific reports given at the April meeting would fill a fifteen pound book said Mr. McTaggart-Cowan, and many of them are rather technical. He did, however, give us some inter- esting bits of information. For instance. one of the projects of the W.M.C. is to provide an ex- change of weather data all around the northern hemisphere, by means of a high speed radio cir- .cuit.. The main stations in the ‘communicating network include Frankfurt, Moscow, New York, San Francisco, Tokyo and New Delhi. The latter two are not yet finished, but should be oper- ating within the year.

That Church will stand steadfast, making an in). pact upon society, whose mem- bers are teachable, ready to study the Scriptures, making a faithful witness to others of the things which God had taught them by His Spirit. done Our Lord promised to use men in the service of His Kingdom who were teachable. Luke tells us that after the resurrection Christ appeared to His disciples, “speaking of the things pertain- ing to the Kingdom of God". Even though these men had spent three years in the “school of Christ”, there was still more to learn. Matthew tells us that on several occasions after the resur- rection, Jesus sat down with His disciples and opened up and ex- plained to them the scriptures of the Old Testament. He helped these men gain a firmer grasp of God’s plan and purpose. He help- ed them see more clearly the role which Be as Saviour and Lord had in the fulfillment of that pur- pose. These men were used be- cause they were teachable. How relevant this statement is in our world today. The ideologies of communism, fascism, secular- ism, have made frightening head- way in capturing the thought and action of millions of people. What a desperate need there is for Christians to be able to state clearly and with certainty. the things they know and believe to be true. The reason the early Church overcame the darkness of their age, was its unflinching de- votion to the truth of God. Paul writes of the Christians at Berea that “they were more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they re- ceived the Word with all eager- ness, examining the Scriptures daily whether these things were so, therefore many believed". They studied God's Word and they communicated their inform- ed iaith to the world. A distinguished industrialist said to an obscure teacher in a Christian College, “The cloth we make wears out, but the ideals‘ you plant in human minds live et- ernally”. This is still true. Christ can- not send forth His Church to teach the Gospel if it is not willing to learn more of the things which are necessary for salvation and Christian growth. One of the great Weaknesses in the life of the Church today, is the unwill- ingness on the part of many mem- bers to learn the things of God. In the average Church there are less than 10 per cent of the con- gregation enrolled in any kind of Bible Study program. Such a con- dition can only weaken the Church’s witness. How can the world take seriously a church whose members are unwilling to be taught themselves in the truths of the Kingdom? by céfiédéf ’ the Unitea THE NEED FOR TEACHABLENESS Facts and faith out States and Russia. Recently a fourth Arctic jet stream was dis- C‘vered at high altitude. These swift rivers of air moving through the quiet atmosfilere are known to be linked with major changes in the weather. but their full ef- fect has not yet been determined. One thing the Meteorologists neglected to do was forecast the weather for the April meet. “The inhabitants of Geneva gave us a warm welcome. said Mr. Mc- Taggart-Cowan. “because on prev vious occasions we seemed to bring sunshine and balmy days. This time however, it was vexy wet and cool." Following the World Meteorol- ogical Congress he went to Lon- don, England. to attend the meet- ing of the Directors of the Met- eorological Services of the Com- monwealth. The primary concern of this association is to discover what can be done to co-ordinate research. and to help less well de- veloped members of the Com- monwealth. 3A2 We Before flying home from Prest- wick. Scotland, Mr. Mc'l‘aggart- Cowan managed a week-end visit with uncles and aunts in Edin- burgh, the city in which he was born. An Oxford graduate, he took meteorological training in London, England, and began his career in Newfoundland by init- iating and taking charge of the weather service for the first com- mercial trans-Atlantic flights in 1937. During the last war he was Chief Meteorological Officer for the RAF. Ferry Command based at Dorval, Que. In the course of his duties. since joining the Can- adian Meteorological S":'vice he has visited every continent except Australia, and is on friendly terms with hundreds of fellow ,scientists of every nationality. During the past two years Mr. McTaggartâ€"Cowan’s travels have taken him to the Arctic Dew Line, Washington, London. Paris, New Delhi and Geneva.
