So many were un- able to attend (because of a busy season or heavy schedule etc. at work), but their wishful thinking followed those who did make it to the annual Lions’ Convention held at Ottawa. This proved to be one of the largest conventions ever held, with a registration of 2.100, com. prised of delegates and members from the Provinces of Ontario Quebec, 7 Along with the business agen- da, annual reports, etc., the par- ade, as always was a highlight of the convention.

Concord Ladies Are ‘Good Group’ The Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Concord Boy Scout Association proved delightful hostesses Mon- day evening, May 30, when seven members from lst Maple Boy Scout Ladies‘ Auxiliary, accepted the invitation to join their meet- ing. Altho‘ugh the ladies. all moth- ers of Cubs or Scouts, displayed their characters to almost per- fection and the dialogue was hilarious â€" the general theme, while greatly exaggerated, came kinda close to home at times!! Some games were played and Maple came off very well indeed as to the prizes, ‘ Business was quickly dispensed with and it was a pity the “Cur- tain Club” didn‘t have a spy out to witness the players in the sketch, “How Not to Conduct a Meeting". Amidst white linen cloths flowers and candlelight, most de- lightful and fancy sandwiches and small cakes, tea and coffee were served. Other guests were from Concord Brownie and Guide Auxiliaries. Thanks so much for our invita- tion â€" along with the pleasure of your company, we feel much can be learned and inspiration given between our groups when we meet in such fashion with the common interest â€" our sons, and scouting in our community. Danny Is in bed at home but is burned just as badly so maybe their friends will send along a card o_r letter to cheer them up. We hope Danny has learned a big lesson and all the other boys and girls as well. If you ignore safety rules and do foolish things, you not only endanger yourself now retired. The reason for such a surmise developed after two car loads of ladies (having hurriedly left in- structions on how to serve the stew heating on the stove), took off to the city to partake of a fascinating and most delicious hr- ray of Chinese food. The success and enjoyment of just such an evening may well become an ac- cepted habit.

We made arrangements with a Chinese Chop Suey House to serve us a special dinner and then from the price we would pay for the dinner, they would donate a certain portion to the World Refugee Year Fund. In this way we felt we, in helping o:hers, would enjOy and appreciate our evening all the more.

Nugent of Vaughan Township Police was their special guest. Films show- ing “Wild Birds in Flight," Pike Fishing and “On the Spot" - a film of survival in the bush, were of interest. Helen’s family and frienis at- tended the service and proudly watched as Helen stepped for- ward to receive a Scholarship for Post Graduate Study in Oh- stetrical Nursing‘ given by the Sisters of St. Joseph, St. Mich- ael's Hospital. The preceding few days were excitingly hectic. Saturday even- ing May 28,,Geo. Calder was guest of daughter Helen at a Father and Daughter Banquet and Dance held at Hampstead Res- taurant, C. N. E. The next day, Sunday, Helen’s guest was her mother, Jean Calder, at a Mother and Daughter Tea held in the Nurses Residence in the afternoon where the mothers met the staff, the Sisters of St, Joseph. There were 49 boys present and Mr. Nugent gave a talk on safety, while riding a bike. stres- sing that the boys had received permission to ride their bikes on the sidewalks rather than on the road. As trucks are necessary to the industries in our town. there always will be many on the road and so caution and strict safety rules mast be followed â€" and that means riding on the side- walks to and from school. Con~ slderation should be given ped- estrians walking on the side~ walk. . ’ This is the time of year for graduation exercises in many fields of endeavour. On Monday, May 30, 1960 Helen Calder was a proud part of the 66th annual GraduationExercises of St. Mi- chael’s Hospital, Toronto. The ceremony took place in the after- noon at Convocation Hall, Univer- sity of Toronto when 102 student nurses, out of a starting class of 105, the largest class at St. Mikes. received their R. N. diplomas. Following the Graduation Exer- cises, Helen’s parents held a re- ception at their home in Maple, from 7-9 pm. for friends of the family. Around 70 guests attend- ed to offer congratulations to He- len Calder R. N; and she received many beautiful and useful gifts. There were many out of town relatives and guests attendina the graduatiqn and receptian One of Helen’s special guests was her grandmother Calder of Toronto _who would be celebv‘at- ing her 76th birthday the next Sunday.
