" Congratulations Richmond Hill on a fine Christmas â€"- may it nevelri. grow dim. Merry Christmas to a I would like to express my tip- preciation to the Curtain Club for their presentation of the pan- tomime “Cinderella” for the children of Richmond Hill. This show was received with tremen- dous enthusiasm and to those of us who link pantomime with the spirit of Christmas, it certainly showed that the traditionally live pantomime can still captivate the imaginative minds of the young, and/foster memories in the not so young. Congratulations to the people of Richmond Hill. Christmas is nearing and when you come to Richmond Hill there‘s no doubt about it. Thank: to Curtain Club Dear Mister Editor: l “Dear Mr. Editor” Dear Mr. Editor Once again my thanks go to the Curtain Club for their wonderful effort, and I for one (I am sure I echo the sentiment of many) would like to see this club present a pantomime every Christmas. An Enthusiast Most farmers would welcome town people if approached the right way. Too many people take nil-startle: with other people's prop- e y. Many prominent people of the Town of Richmond Hill will be present tonight at the Summit View Restaurant on the occasion of the celebration of the third anniversary of the establishment of the Richmond Hill Junior Chamber of Commerce. Has Won Enduring Place The Jaycees as the Chamber is popularly known, has proven to be a very live addition to the district’s worthwhile organiza- tions. By its training of members in Public Speaking and Business Administration, by its organiza- tion of such community services as the recent highly successful. “Shop Locally Week" which at- tracted wide interest even out- side the boundaries of the town, by its success in the field of net- ional and international competi- tion with other J aycee groups, by Many people I know like to take the family and go out to the woods and cut their own tree. There's something real nice about that and there's nothing wrong with it. But please before you go rampaging thl‘ough the woods, ask the permission of the_ owner. Vfiiést year three men split a $90. fine for three stolen trees. Farmer's Wile Its hard to believe that anyone could enjoy coming down Christ- mas morning and looking at a stolen Christmas Tree. Yet we are told there are many hundreds stolen every year. r ‘_ Dear Mr. Editor Jaycees Observe Third Anniversary Mr. Lowe now has a congrega- tion of one hundred members re- sulting from the recently held meetings plus a few Adventist families who were already resid- ing in the area and who have pre- viously been compelled to travel to the Branson Hospital Campus. site of the nearest church before Pastor Lowe established his meet- ings in this district. Mr. Lowe Sm that the church has come to Richmond Hill to stay and that he will always be glad to welcome interested visit- Meetings will be held every Saturday at the Masonic Hall with Sabbath School commencing at 2.30 p.111. and normal church ser. vices following at 3.40 pm. The celebration of Christmas should centre around the birth of the Saviour of the world. Old Fashioned FOLLOWING A SUCCESSFUL series of evangelistic meetings which have been conducted every Wednesday and Sunday evening in the Lions Hall, Centre Street East during recent weeks, Mr. Lawton Lowe, Pastor of the Seventh-Day Adventist Church has ended that series of meetings. He has established a Richmond Hill Seventh- Day Adventist Church which is now meeting until further notice in the new Masonic Hall on Crosby Avenue until land can be purchased and a new church building erected. Pastor Lowé is marriéd and has 3 two children. He currently lives at 26 Holcolm Road, Willowdale. I may be termed old fashioned, but I like to think of this Season as a time for thought on the real meaning of Christmas. The real significance seems to be submerg- ed in a frantic desire to make money, sell and give expensive gifts. I may be a voice crying in the~ wilderness, but why can't some- thing be done about the commer- cialization of Christmas? New Church Established Christin-I Too Commercldlzed Dear Mr. Editor: Enjoys 5110po In Richmond Illll Pleale Don't Steal Xmas Tree- New Resident Climax To Meetings Richmond Hill is predomin- ately British in population and outlook. It is the British who deplore the lack of theatres and the kind of culture they took for granted at home. Yet these same people seem to prefer to wall about Canada whilst they sit comfortably at home watching their favourite TV westerns complete with commercial \inter- ruptions instead of turning out for a wonderful evening's enter- tainment, supporting what could be, who knows, a repertory company. How is the Curtain Club ex- pected to operate without sup- port. I am not a member or any- thing to do with the Club but I do feel than something concrete should be don-e to help the Club. A filled auditorium is the best support. _Ionwever,. I film? that‘ it Only this week our children have had the opportunity 0‘ see- ing “Cinderella,” the first. pan- tomime my youngest children have ever seen and the first we have seen for nearly thirteen years. This could be a yearly event, something to look forward to as it was in England. With a little support Richmond Hill could have its own pantomime and to have a theatre on our own doorstep at prices within everyone's reach is surely worth an occasional TV programme missed. It is teaching the child- ren the value of a live play, something hard to do at present in Canada. is possible to join' the club without having to participate in anyway. Every new member paying a fee is actively support- ting a company giving lavishly its time and talent. To misquote Churchill, never was so mucn done by so few and not apprec- iated by so many. Yours faithfully, L. Sargeant The message of the above-nam- ed company carrying greetings to The Richmond Hill Curling Club, last week appeared erroneously under the heading, “Ready-ijed Concrete Ltd., Gormley, Ontario.” This should have appeared as “GORMLEY Ready-Mixed Con- crete Ltd.. Gormley, Ontario. No doubt most readers under- stood but we are glad to make this correction while regretting any inconvenience to the com- pany. Much more cou‘ld be said on this occasion but no doubt most of it will be said in the course of the evening during its Anniv: ersary Dinner and after. and will be reported in these columns next week. Record of Public Service its public spirited support of many worthwhile community pro- jects over the past three years, the chamber has won an endur- ing place in the local community and has established a well deser- ves prestige and respect for it- se . Much Could Be Said Thus for the present, "The Liberal” will content itself by wishing it continued success and congratulating the chamber upon its three year record of public service. May it long continue to serve the district. Curtain Club and interested peo- ple in Richmond Hill to attend. Apart from Club Members, it is doubtful whether twenty resi- dents turned up to encourage a local playwright and actor i1. his excellent work. A few weeks ago there were notices in the "Liberal" of the reading of Mr. Rabinowitch's play. inviting members o_f the Why then should the east have to play to nearly empty halls? The Curtain Club has brought honour to Richmond Hill so why can't Richmond H111 res1dents show their apprecia- tion by turnlng out en masse for its productions? AURORA : Yonge Street will be made a four lane highway north and south of the town. The Curtain Club's recent pro- duction of “Blithe Spirit" was excellent.
