Edinburgh, that SATURDAY, JUNE 4th The disturbances of the time caused the Scots to hold Conventicles (secret worship services) in the glens and for- ests, arms in one hand, Bible in the other.

With the original introduction of Karting in the United States. one or two wise Americans fore- saw that this sport would soon go the way of others and become professionalized unless it was properly protected. It was sponsored in Britain by The Royal Automobile Club. The result has been that there are great possibilities for the private individual to go kart racing, and, contrary to the kilijoys, where the spirit has been keen enough tracks have been found through- out the country and many a dis- used gravel pit or airfield has come into its own again. It is incredible but' the sport in a short six months has grown from a local afi‘air into a national sport recognized by the national press and by television. Amateurs Protected So they banded together to pro- tect karting so that it should re- main a sport for the family â€" a sport in which all mum he in- (by Paul Delmar) WHAT is KARTING? You probably only heard about this new sport the other day when you read the story in the columns of “The Liberal" about the application before Vaughan Township Council to establish an arena in this area. Perhaps you are already wondering whether this is a spor for you? Perhaps you are trying to decide whether or no to join the many who are already enjoying the thrills that Karting has to olfer. Probably you will decide that for fun and enjoyment, Karting. provides the opportunity for all the family a chance to let its hair down. Started In U.S.A. Starting in the U.S.A., the sport has arrived in Britain and other countries to quickly es- tablish as a leading family sport. Kartingâ€"New Family Sport tradition grows, and on this cornerstone, modern Presby- terianism will build on the memory of their forebears. With the strength of this memory, their free Conven- ticles will grow and flourish. And to the children goes the heritage. Here. on this beau- tiful lakeside site, as they :ome to study. play and wor- ship in summer camp, they will learn of the sacrifices of the past and the new tradi- tion.

There, on the sweeping ver- anda of the main lodge the bell stands. Forever, it is land-locked and anchored, but never retired. Of Mr. Playfair, Rev. James Donald, camp convener, said: “You can't hate the world as long as there are people like that." A plaque inmemory of Mr. and Mrs. Playfair is to be dedicated at the Conventicle. This is being provided by the camp Alumni, says Mrs. Mac- Kenzie Matheson, chairman of the Women’s House Com- mittee.

Thus, Karting in the States is national and is enjoyed by thou- sands at not too great a cost per year. Protection Needed Cost of a Kart is around the $200 mark. For this small outlay, everyone who has ever dreamed of circling a race track, enjoying the thrill of clever cornering, ra- cing up the straight to the next, all the excitement of pit work as karts are serviced, can have his dreams come true. Whether it will come to this area via the proposed track near N0. 7 Highway in Vaughan Town- ship is for the township council to decide.

Reeve John Perry told the ap- plicant, a Mr. Rush, that since his appearance before council 3 week earlier, nine property own- ers who originally had signed a petition favoring the car lot had changed their minds and had formally so notified Council. Reeve Perry explained that as matters stood, Mr. Bush had one legal out. the securing of a car agency. This would enable him to by-pass council.
