Robin Wood, Jeffrey Burton, and David Gibson represented the Student Council of Richmond Hill High School. Though the Richmond Hill trio trailed the Niagara group, who had previous experience in ques- tioning, and facing the camera, they excelled in the theology and physics questions, and were able to bring home some cash to aug- ment the Student Council funds. Everything considered, the local boys “made good", their school may feel justly proud of their ef- forts. Jetfrey’s answer to the M. C. was, ‘We could have answered the questions given to our oppos- ition, but drew a blank on our own questions.” As spokesman for the trio, Jeffrey Burton presented his ac- count of Richmond Hill High School, its activities and Student Council, in a' very favourable light. Further questioning by the M.C. revealed that Jeffrey in- tends to specialize in science, mathematics and physics. David Gibson indicated that he was in- terested in science, and also pho- tography as a hobby.

Citizenship is the status of a person who gives a1- legiance to the government in return for political rights and pri- vileges but the obligation of citi- zenship does not end with taxes and voting. A good citizen votes regularly and intelligently. Good citizenship requires more than mere knowledge of the headlines in the current events. They must be able to form intelligent opin- ions by collecting various views on events or movements. Mrs. E; Armstrong was pres- ented with a beautiful purse in recognition of her faithful work as area chairman for the past | three years. A good citizen is co-operative, unselfish, friendly and courteous. Too many accept the privilege and neglect the responsibility. A good citizenslpas an obligation to his or her family, to God and the community. Historical facts put in a history will preserve them but will not keep them alive. They should be told to the community and shared with the New Canadians so they may realiie' our rich heritage. A wonderful afternoon and ev- ening was enjoyed by all those who attended the Richmond Hill United Church Christmas Fair and viewed the gain decorated rooms and the beautiful crafts, flowers and candies on sale. The smiling faces of the “small fry" as they came from the Fish Pond or on their way out of the mo- vies was a joy to see. The nursery was filled to capacity most of the day, giving mother a chance to have a leisurely cup of afternoon tea and pick up some pastries at the Bake Sale. Four hundred or more delicious meat pie and spaghetti suppers were served, and the children just loved the hot dogs. Clarke Dedlow is now the proud pos- essor of a red ribbon he won as top “baker” in the Men’s Cake Baking Contest. It looked scrump- tious and so did the others, as they were auctioned off. Every- one relaxed as the Men’s Club took over in the evening with games for the children, and thor- oughly enjoyed watching the thrilling Danish dance steps of the Village Folk Dancers.‘ ‘ A very sincere word of thanks to the hard working convenors, Ruth Miller and Mable Fenwick and to all committee members and friends who made this such ,a successful Christmas Fair.
