Ruth and Bud with their two children Roger and Frances have resided on Church St. S. for the past 14 years, during which time they have made many friends.

They all extend a hearty wel- come to friends to drop around to 2 Vanderhoof Avenue, Lea- side, and visit them. They leave the Hill with pleasant :memories and hope their new town will provide them with as many pleasures as Richmond sponsored by the Rotary Club of Richmond Hill. The conference was held at the YMCA Camp on Lake Cou- chiching, near Orillia. Subject, of the Conference was “The Re- birth of Latin America." During the first three days of the week-long meeting, the del- egates listened to lectures given by experts in the field of Latin‘ affairs. This part of the confer-‘ ence was supervised by adults. The final four days’ meetings were organized by the students .er and foxgloves along the road- London, noticing the maple leaf worn by Miss Dawson, pointed out that the flagpole on the White Tower is also a Canadian“ a BC.

Purvis, con- venor, of St. Mary’s (Anglican) Rummage Sale is busy with her committee making plans for this annual fall event. Ten years ago the Evening Branch of the WA. of St. Mary’s Church made history by spon- soring the first rummage sale in the district which has since he- come an important part of com- munity life in the Hill. Members of St. Mary’s Church will be reminded early in September about their con- tributions but if anyone wishes to make early donations of clothing. attic and basement treasures, etc, they may do so by calling TU. 4â€"3190 or TU. 4- 4780 for pick up. The committee for this year’s sale is: Mrs. W. Purvis, convenor; Mrs. J. Goodier, Mrs. M. Langton, Mrs. N. McLeod, and Mrs. C. Williams. Mr. and Mrs. E. J. H. Redel- meier and sons Hugh and Billy took a break from their Mus- koka cottage holiday for a visit to Strartford on Saturday where they saw the performances of ‘The Tempest" and “The Gon- doliers". Rummage! Rummage! The courtesy of British mo- torists and the tid-iness of streets and parks in towns and cities especially impressed Miss Mary Dawson of “The Liberal” staff on her recent visit to England and Scotland. Of particular in- terest, too, was a traffic police- man in Durham, controlling traffic throughout a wide area from the central square by ‘means of two closed television circuits and traffic lights. In Edinburgh, the problem of ice in the winter on the steep approach to the Moun-d has been solved by placing an electric blanket under the road surface which turns itself on as the tem- perature drops to the danger point. Here, too, the most moving sight was the Scottish War Memorial in Edinburgh Castle, where each branch of the ser- vice and each regiment which served in both World Wars is remembered even to the mice and cavnarias used by the engin- ers to warn of gas in the tun-- nels. It is not unusual to find the name of a father in the book for the War of 191448, and that of his son in the book of 1939-45. A highlight of the trip was a trip on RMS King George V which bore a plaque recording the fact that this ship had par- ticipated in the removal of troops from Dunkirk and other beaches during World War II. iA trip ashore in a dory at Staffa to clamber over the rocks to visit St. Ninian's cave and a trip to Iona where St. Colum‘ba brought Christianity to Britain in the sixth century were made from this ship. Back from three weeks holi- daying in England are Mr. and Mrs. A. Smyth and their young daughter Sharon. Spending the first part of their vacation at the home of Mrs. Smyth’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. G. Page. Monkselaton. near Newcastleâ€"on-Tyne, they made trips to Lancashire. the Lake District and Gretna Green. They later paid a brief visit to Lon- don, continuing to Brighton where they stayed with Mr. Smyth’s parents, Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Smyth. About 150 members of the Richmond Hill congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses will be at- tending the "Courageous Min- isters District Assembly” to be held at the Civic Stadium, Ham- ilton, from August 3 to 5.

Rosam Jr., super- visor of the work of Jehovah’s Witnesses in Canada. BETTY RUTH NEAL Mr. and Mrs. Walter P. Neal, of Rockwood, Tennessee, an- nounce the engagement of their daughter.
