On June 26th, to celebrate the day the largest 8th grade class in George Bailey Public School graduated, even the rain helped by holding off. There were eight beautifully dressed girls and fif- teen smartly groomed boys, back- ed up by the other seven grades, who sat on the lawn outside the new front door and heard a very pertinent address by Prinicipal John Outram. - He said that although they must be very glad to get out of school at last - and it was nice for him too, - they were neverthe- less leaving what he hoped they felt was their second home. This, being the largest graduating class, had done very well. No marks were given to the final results as far as those getting diplomas were concerned, but the ones who stood first, second and third had “Honours” written on theirs, as they had done excellently in every subject all year. The pupils were given to under- stand that although a few of them were passing conditionally to grade 9, they had the ability but just needed to do a little more work to stay there. A few not present would profit by another year in Grade 8.. 1- A LL, n__-_ Everyone, including the Prim cipal, would anticipate seeing fresh faces next year, but if any- one had any problems he would be very glad to talk anything over with them at any time. as someâ€" times it was easier to have some- one outside the family to confide in. and he felt they were all good friends of his. On being wished a happy hol- iday. the, younger grades grabbed' a popsicle and departed, and the 8th grade went to the Lower Hall to find tables beautifully set up with an enticing cold luncheon prepared and served by the Com- munity and School Club. ,1L__ to Judy Maddin.

June let. the weather was ideal for the Memor- ial Day Service. in remembrance of those passed on, and who peacefully rest in Maple United Cemetery. There were a good number of friends from, near and far. And the many tokens of flowers and plants here and there thro- ughout the cemetery created a garden like appearance thus show- ing that the friends had not for- gotfien their lqved ones. The Ministers taking part in the service where Rev. W. B. Jennings B.A.B.D.. of St. Steph- ens Anglican Church. Rev. B. F. Andrew of St. Andrews Presby- terian Church and Rev. H. W. Davies B.A., of Maple United Church who delivered the Ad- dress. at the moving pictures... Now that I’ve attended one - -along with a couple hundred others - let me agree, they are fun. Yes, even the hard Working W.A. of Maple United Church and the Hi C's, ably guided by Bob and Lynn James seemed to be having them- selves a time, on Tuesday even- ing June 23rd. As for some of the small fry - - 1 - oh youth!! Where could they be stashing it all? We observed the James boys Brian and Doug with their cousin Shelly, keeping their waitress on the hop. The Hi C‘s were feeling am- bitous a few weeks back and thought they would like to put on just such an affair. However, be- ing newly organized and few in number the June group of the WA. under Mrs. Kay Lightheart, came to their aid and helped make it the success it was. The general appearance of the cemetery was commendable due to time and hard work put in to it, in so short a time. Ice Cream Social The church lawn looked most festive with small tables covered With white cloths, set out amongst strings of gay coloured lights. ‘On each table there was a vase of deep red roses, donated by Mr. Roy Clegg. Being a city girl, all I knew about such things was what I saw The W.A. group looked after the food detail, baking pies and cakes, etc., and more or less sup- ervising the whole deal. 7 Menfis had been prepared, thanks to Bruce Murchison, in a colourful manner. For this one occasion Bob and Lynn contacted the 15-17 age group of the United Churches of Concord, Edgeley, Hope and Ma- ple and were extremely pleased with the response. No doubt in the fall when the club starts up again, it will be a going concern. Their interest was certainly whet- ted that night and sitting back (waiting for another ice cream) we couldn’t help but feel intense- ly proud of our local young people. Help! Mr. and Mrs. R. Thompson re- cently enjoyed the company of several out of town friends and relatives, among them being Mr. and Mrs. A. A. Porter of Ottawa with their sons Jeffrey and Chris- topher and Mr. and Mrs. H. Jac- obs, St. Paul, Minnesota. In be- tween visits they also had guests from Toronto. WHITCHURCH : Township Coun- cil agreed by resolution to engage two special constables to patrol the lakes in the municipality and to have control of all parking on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays from 9 am. to 6 pm. Th'eir em- ployment is to run until Septem- ber 15. Another successful Strawberry Festival was held in Teston Unit- ed Church Wednesday, June 24. An estimated 630 people were served. The story of the festival begins the day before when the ladies of the church are to be‘ found baking countless pies and cakes, etc. That evening long‘ tables are set up in the Sunday School room. Early on the day of the festival the berries are brought to the church where they are stemmed and washed. Pota- toes must be peeled and cooked, cabbage shredded for salads and the many loaves of bread butter- ed. Teen-agers and young people full of life and laughter work along with more experienced hands at the task, to accomplish an amazing amount of work. At a quarter to five tables have been set, decorated with flowers and laden with good food and the first customers start to appear. By five-fifteen. 90 people are enjoy- ing the delicious home cooked food for which the ladies of Tes- ton are famous. A line of people begins to form at the door and as quickly as places are vacated they are filled again. Salad plates are .filled and emptied, saucers of luscious red berries are served and pies, cakes and tarts are con- sumed by the score. And so it goes for four hours!‘ Many old friendships are renewed and new friends made and over all this bustle of‘activity is the joy of a well organized co-operative group enjoying the satisfaction of a ,“mission accomplished.” Tired iworkers feel that the weariness is all worthwhile and this is Straw- ,berry Festival 1959. Strawberry Festival There will be no church servic- es in Teston the Sundays of July 5 or 12. Rev. and Mrs. Jenkinson are enjoying a much deserved hol- iday. There will be services in King City United Church both Sundays at 10 am. with Rev. E. M. Nicols of Toronto in charge.

About 40 adults and chil- dren spent an enjoyable day of swimming, hiking, racing, etc, and made the homeward journey tired but happy. School Closing Schools in the area closed at noon on Friday and the children hurried home with their report cards and the long awaited for news. We hope that there were not too many disappointed.
