The Sunday School had invited Mrs. Roy Barker of Woodbridge Some sections of our town had 'about two hours without hydro last Sunday morning during which time some of the junior set were most unconcerned that they couldn't have their bacon and eggs or toast but this was the morning Maple United Sun- day School was to have an Open Session and how could they have their program without electric- ity? Fortunately when the front door banged shut as our junior set off to S. S. the hydro came on and all was well. It.would be most impossible indeed to name all the sick folk around town. However we are so sorry Ken Rumble has had such a nasty bout, Helen Spen- cer kept mom in a dither, what with Helen’s high temp and the Daffodil Tea responsibility. The Plunkett’s, Crook’s, Cleworths, _Wells, junior and senior that is, and many more were bitten with the bug. Young Rod Shields has decided to be allergic to sever~ al things but in the process â€" things are kind of tough. S. S. Open Session: The first day of Spring seems to go along with March let also being Gail James birthday â€" there is always bound to be something stirring when either one puts in an appearance. Gail celebrated being seven years old on- Monday, March 215t. Many, Many more happy returns Gail. Thursday, March 24, young Jeff House celebrated his 4th birthday by having about a dozen little fljiends in fora party. ’ The last we heard was that the party was a tremendous success but it was difficult to get Mother, (Bev) out of the dishpan â€" neighbors suggested a smaller, quieter do perhaps next year af- ter they came across Bev thor- oughly washing and drying the paper plates and paper cups!!

Birthday Notes: Refreshments and social period followed. Remember to Buy Easter Seals:- The ladies attending this meet- ing felt it was indeed a timely topic and that they were much better informed regarding the duties of the various departments of their church. On W. A. work, the various departments were outlined by; Mrs. G. Watson. on Christian Education; Mrs. E. Walker; Christian Stewardship; Mrs. Cul- len, Christian Citizenship; Mrs. Breeze, Visiting and Christian Fellowship; and Mrs. H. Jack- son on Missions. Other depart- ments such as Press, Literature and Visiting Committees, were covered by the president, Mrs.‘ Payne. Mrs. H. Davies spoke on Boy's Work and Worker’s Conferences, also outlining the higher Govâ€" erning Bodies of the Church from General Council and the duties of the Executive Boards. Mrs. Davies stated there were 2 conference branches over all Canada and 12 Presbyteries. There are 28 pastoral charges in York Presbytery. The Government of the United Church of Canada. was the sub- ject before the meeting. Mrs. Boron outlined the departments of our own pastoral charge from a chart prepared by Rev. Harold Davies, â€" pastor of Maple Uni- ted Church. Mrs. K. Tilley convened the program and Mrs. N. Woods was in charge of the Worship Per- iod, quoting on "Key Words of the Christian Faith." These were Sin, Confession, Repentance and Forgiveness. The March meeting of the W.A. was held on Tuesday evening, March 22 in the Christian Educaâ€" tion Room, with Mrs. N. Payne presiding. see â€"-!!” So be it. Maple United Church W.‘A.i 2 and 3 sons at noon and around 4.

GILL Maple Noteg BUILDERS' SUPPLIES tative in events “The Liberal : Liberal is always willing to publish interesting items regarding people and its contributed by its readers in Maple, Concord & Edgeley districts. Our represen- e in Maple is Mrs. Len Shore, ALpine 7-1150; in Concord, Mrs. Audrey Boron. 5-2329; and in Edgeley and Sherwood. Mrs. Raymond Stuart, AV. 5-1934. It Costs Less Than You Think To Build A Recreation Room Shingles & Roofing Materials, etc. On the other hand â€"-â€" perhaps Tim has the edge â€" his father makes their bread and butter as a Commercial Artist and photo- grapher and having dad close at hand for needed advice and such can’t be too bad. So often we have heard the comment -- “But where in Maple can any young people get work” â€"- to help pad their allowance, or teach them the value of a dollar, when they are hounding mom and dad for that new Easter outfit. Well here are a couple of teen- agers who decided to do some- thing about it. Being smart and sticking to their flair for photo- graphy, Tim Weir and Tom White have turned their hobbies into a hoped for paying propos- ition, and formed their own “Tim Tom Studio.” Taking over Tim’s recently re- modelled room over the back stairs, the Tim Tom Studio of Photography is gradually coming into its own and they say they are open for business. Perhaps Tom has had more ex- perience, as he is an ardent member of R.H.H.S. Camera Club and of course when your Maple Notes Correspondent wants a picture â€" Tom White is called and as a result has had a goodly number printed in “The Liberal." The congregation of the Maple United Church is most pleased, along with Mrs. Roy Clegg, or- ganist and the one mainly re- sponsible, to see the additions to the choir. Last Sunday, Michael Weir made his first appearance to add some basso profundo and we understand he will have some added support in the near future. With the five young ladies newly installed, Mrs. Clegg will have a full choir to work with before long and it must be heartening to have these young people tak- ing active part. As Ambitious Teen-age Duo So these leaders 'give a fair share of their leisure to training and instructing your boys. Let them know you appreciate them, it takes but .. minute. Their duties as Camp Wardens include a thorough checkup of fires, camping sites etc., after the scouts have broken camp. In case of emergencies, which do happen even in the best of camps, they are on hand to ad- minister proper aid. B paék’s cub leaders, Russ Locke and Gary Palmer have gone with the “Skigper” at tir_nes. (It’s here the scouts from Toronto District set up their winter camps and qualify for sur- vival hikes etc., with some good winter sports thrown _in.) Scout Master “Skipper” Jack House, ever eager to learn added knowledge in dealing with scouts, hies off to Orangeville, (with sleeping bag tucked under one wing) where the ,Scout’s Oxtrail Camp is located, and acts as official Camp Warden, on sever- al occasions. We would emphasize this is a free clinic and each resident is invited to take advantage of its first class professional services. - Helping to make this coming April 7 clinic run more smoothly, members of Maple Women’s In- stitute, as always, will be on hand to assist. 7 fl __ _ ‘ - A complete up to date file is kept on each patient and you are notified when to next attend the clinic. If you are new in this com- munity and have young ones or perhaps there is a new addition in the family â€" here is your op- portunity to have your child re- ceive a thorough check-up, and you will be advised when the proper “shots” should be given. Along with the regular stand bys â€" in “shots,” that is, your child may also be given the required polio shots, ‘In case you are not acquaint- ed with this service, it is offered free of charge by the Public Health Department. The doctor and nurses in charge are there to assist you in keeping your pre _school child healthy â€" through the “Well baby” clinic. Here is a special notice to all mothers of pre school children. On April 7. a Well Baby Clinic will be held at Maple Community Centre, to show slides on the Holy Land taken when she and Mr. Barker visited there last year. This was perhaps one of the more ap- preciative audiences Mrs. Barker has had, Seeing their Bible stor- ies come to life was most fascin- ating for these boys and girls and will no doubt enliven their in- terest in the Bible and its tea- chings. Well Baby Clinic Phone TU. 4-1311 Congratulations were received via cable, from Prime Minister Diefenbaker, Premier Leslie Frost and our local parliament representatives, Mr. Cathers and Major Mackenzie. Mr. and Mrs. Rumble have re- sided in Maple ever since their wedding in 1910 and have regul- arly attended, as active members, St. Andrew’s Presbyterian Church. They are held in very high esteem in the neighbour- hood and surely have seen many changes take place in and about Maple over the past 50 years. The “Liberal” joins the many friends and neighbors of this community in wishing Mr. and Mrs. Rumble, many more years of happiness together in good health. Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Rumble, Keele St., Maple, had planned a very quiet 50th wedding anniver- sary at home on March 23rd. but were pleasantly surprized by many friends and relatives cal- ling to offer congratulations and present them with beautiful flow- ers and gifts. Arthur Rumbles Wed Fifty Years The annual Home and School Association dance held at Maple Community Hall on March 18 turned out to be a very enjoy- able affair, and for the first time profitable as well as pleas- ant. The executive wishes to thank all those who gave their support by attending the affair and also special thanks to the many who bought their tickets with sole purpose of supporting their Home and School Associa- tion even though they had no in- tention of attending the dance. Renewing old acquaintances at the dance were Mr. and Mrs. Bill Baker of Hawkestone Ont. Mr. Baker is a past, president of our association. Also there to renew old acquaintances were Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Wells. Mr. Wells was formerly a teacher at Concord School. 1‘ The Guide and Brownie Packs shared the check room receipts, as did the Boy Scouts and Cubs last year. ' The Guide and Brownie Group Committee Bake Sale held at the school on Election Day was not as well supported as was expected of the mothers whose daughters are members of the Guide and Brownie Packs. Many thanks to those who did support it and also to the willing work- ers. The fault was not theirs. Fund raising enterprises are so lacking in support that it- seems the only way left' is to charge a straight yearly fee for each Guide and Brownie, in order that the support of the packs be shared equally by all mothers of Guides and Brownies. Let us all turn out to the next Group Com- mittee Meeting in April to dis- cuss the matter. Home and School Concord Community Ratepay- ers Association invite everyone to attend their next regular meeting to be held at the school on Thursday, April 7, at 8.30 p.m. sharp. During the meeting some informative reports will be giv- en», including those on all the Vaughan '“ownship council meet- ings held during February and March and attended b represâ€" entatives of the as ociation. Many requests and suggestions made by the members were pre- sented to the Council at these meetings. Guide and Brownies A St. Patrick’s Day dance was the theme of the evening for 19 ‘boys and girls at Concord School last Saturday. In attendance were two dancing Leprechauns com- plete with green outfits, buckled shoes, white beards and clay pipes. The Leprechauns (who were in reality Loren Whaley and Barry Woods) carried “Pots 0' Gold" filled with gold wrapped candy coins and gold wrapped Easter Eggs in lieu of enough gold coins. The “Pots 0‘ Gold” were won by Evelyn Gareau and David Agnew during a novelty dance. A11 in all a very pleasant evening was had by all. More teen-agers would be welcome at the monthly get togethers so come on out kids and join in the fun with your £riends. Inci- dentally parents, all you have to do is provide transportation to and from the school for your teen-agers. The Teen Town Com- mittee, sponsored by Concord Home and School Association and the chaperones do the rest.

His reason? ‘The air north of Lawrence Avenue is the purest in Metro Toronto â€"â€" they say she is coming here for the sake of her son.” We are happy to report that Mr. John Witney is able to be out and around again after a bout with the whooping cough. "riends of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Kippax, former residents of Con- cord and now residing in Stev- enson, Ont. will be sorry to hear that little Charles is in Chat- ham Hospital suffering from a mastoid and mommie is in bed with the flu. ,Latest members of the whoop- ing cough club are Lynda, Ro- bert, Randy and Brian Bailie and Jeffrey, Wesley and Lisa Boron. Lets all hope we won’t have any more new members. Remember parents, according to York Coun- ty Health regulations, all child- ren under 12 who have been in contact with whooping cough are quarantined for as long as the patient. Mrs. W. G. Lake'is feelinvgfi ibieâ€"E-i ter after a lengthy bout with a bad virus attack. Mrs. Isobel Burlington of Hill- side Ave., is in the Branson Hos- pital. We all hope she will be home soon and feeling better.

Mrs. Donnie Warwick is off_the sic_k_ listfigngl feeling much better. Belated birthday greetings to Loiren7Whaley for March 27.

On Sunday, March 20, the lst Concord Scouts enjoyed an all day outing of tobogganin-g at Reaman’s «Hills. Lunch of Irish Stew and hamburgers was cooked over an open fire. It was re- ported that a very enjoyable time was had by all. One Scout, name of Douglas Boron still has a sun burped face ito prove it. The highlight of the Father and Son banquet was the pres- entations of First Class Scout Badges to Scouts Charles Saun- ders and Don Day Jr. Having two first class scouts in a group of this size is quite an achieve- ment and speaks well of our Scouter Mr. Nick Custoreri. First Stars were presented to Cubs Loren Whaley, Ronald Nor- din and Jeffrey Boron. Any boys interested in Cubs should con- tact Mr. Harry Webb, AV. 5-2338 and boys over 12 who are ser- iously interested in Scouts should contact Mr. Nick Custoreri at ME. 5-5351.

Babies ordinarily acquire the ability to sit up between 6 and 9 months. When child- ren first learn to sit up they usually lean forward in a position that appears strain- ed but it is actually a slump- ed or relaxed attitude. Mus- cular development and co-or- dination progress rapidly and in a little more than a few weeks the child can maintain proper balance while sitting. Sitting up is merely one of the steps in growth leading towards the later develop- ment of more complicated movements. such as stand- ing and walking.
