In 1887 the Women’s Board of Home Missions of the Pres- byterian Church. USA institut- ed a day of prayer for home missions; two years later the Baptist Women's Board appoint- ed a similar day of intercessions for foreign missions. In the succeeding years women of oth- er communions began to share in these services. In 1919 these two observances were combin- ed into a United Day of Pray- er for Missions and the date chasen was the first Friday in Lent.. 1'- 11-..-.1- aL- __u-_.. The next chapter in the his- tory of the World Day of Pray- er is the story of its journey, on the wings of the Holy spirit, around the world. The ever wi- dening circle of the observance was not the result of a highly organized promotional cam- paign; it just happened and this makes it somewhat of a miracle. Missionaries returning to their overseas fields of ser- vice and church women travel- ling abroad spoke of this Unit- ed Day of Prayer and of the joy of sharing in its fellowship. ‘In 1927. at the request of in- terested women in other lands. it became in name. as it had become in fact, “The World Day of Prayer”. In 1964 milâ€" ‘lions of women in 150 countries knelt together in prayer. In Canada last year 3,500 com- munities from Newfoundland fto the Yukon observed the day. The World Day of Prayer is a child of the missionary move- ment: it was mothered by the Women‘s Missionary Societies of many churches on this con~ tinent and‘it was their mission- aries who first carried the news of the observance overseas. In Canada the pattern was strikingly similar. As early as 1895 the Woman‘s Auxiliary of the Anglican Church designat- ed St. Andrew’s Day. as a day of corporate intercessions for missions. The Methodist Wo- men's Board also appointed a similar day of prayer. It was. however. the Presbyterian wo- men. following the institution of their annual day of prayer in 1916. who first caught the vi- sion of a wider significance for these denominational days of prayer; a vision which led to the Canadian observance of the World Day of Prayer and for- mation of the Women's Inter- Church Council of Canada. which sponsors this observance. The first service was held in Canada on January 9. 1920. and was called “Women's In- terdenominational Day of Pray- er for Missions" In the spring LU I.“ The offering from hundreds of World Day of Prayer servic- es across Canada makes pos- sible substantial grants to a large number of organizations.

Charges against nine other members will be heard Febru- ary 23. The charges arose out of a joint raid against the newlyâ€" formed club by Markham and Vaughan Township Police, Ja- nuary 22, during the height of a beer-drinking party. Of the 15 who appeared in court only one entered a guilty plea to any of the charg- es. He was Ronald Storey, 20, who resides at the Yonge Street club, and who was convicted of illegal possession of liquor and keeping liquor for sale. Police confiscated 86 full pints of beer, 44 empties. and arrested 24 guests, in- cluding 15 men and nine girls, some of whom tried to stage impromptu exits during the raid through back doors and rear win- dows. During the court hearing, reasons given for being at the house on the night in question, ranged from seeing about “get- ting my motorcycle painted," to “having my ears pierced." A third charge of supplying liquors to minors was with- drawn. Similar charges, however against club president, Edward Lesniewski, 25, and Stanley Lindsay, 25. both residents of the club, were withdrawn by Crown Attorney A. Armstrong. Storey, who faces a minimum term of two months in jail un- der the act was remanded to February 16 for a pre-sentence report. Both Lesniewski and Storey. who wore beards during their entertainments, were clean sha- ven for this occasion. No explanation for the with- drawals was given, although Magistrate 0. S. Hollinrake told Storey he wondered if he might not be “taking the responsibil- ity for the others.” Crown Attorney Armstrong had admitted there was no re- cord of Storey having purchas- ed any beer. Jorg Schneider. 20, of 8143 Yonge‘ Street, who also was ori- ginally charged on the first three counts, had the charges against him withdrawn in fav- or of a reduced one of purchas- ing liquor under age. Testimony revealed mat Stor- ey had helped Schneider carry the beer purchased by Schneid- er, into the house. Of the remaining charges. four people were convicted of drinking while under age. three were convicted as foundâ€"ins. and two others were convicted of having liquor in a place oth. er than a residence. Three other charges of found- ins. including one against a ju- venile, were dismissed. Brian Hampson. Toronto. who is in hospital at present. was remanded to March 9.

Constable Cox said the house had been under observation for two weeks. and that. during one of those weeks 504 pints of beer had been purchased for the house.

Ri- chmond Hill Public School Su- perintendent Gordon McIntyre told the board Thursday of last week. “These telecasts. like any lessons, vary from being almost useless to being the spark of some of the best lessons yet," said Mr. McIntyre. He said that television was at its best when it brought something immed- iate and important to the classroom. such as the re- cent coverage of Sir Win- ston Churchill's funeral. “However. education is still a twoâ€"way business," said Mr. McIntyre. “Television \von’t displace the teacher. because the only thing that gives good two-way communication is a ‘good teacher and a class." Vice-principal‘s salary, $7.- 500 minimum, $9,200 maximum, with $500 annual increments, with the salary of the present vice-principal being increased to $8,500 in September, 1965. Mrs. Redelmeier President Hosp-ital Aux. Members Contribute 16,287 Hrs: BY LOREN GUILD York Central Hospital has given service for 32,000 patient days since its opening November 1963. This statistic was given by the administrator, Gary Chatfield to the annual meeting of the hospital volunteer auxiliary, February 11, when they con- vened in the hospital cafeteria.

Seven hundred and sixty-six babies were welcomed into the world and nine of these births came in sets of twins. A further breakdown of the total is in percentages according to area. Richmond Hill pro- vided 40% of the patients, Vaughan 11.5%, King 10.7%,‘ Metro 10%, Thornhill 9%, Whit- church 5.6%, Aurora 6.3% Markham 4% and miscellaneous 2.8%. Mr. Chatfield com- mended the women on the val- uable contribution they had made to the hospital financially and through volunteer indirect service to the patients. In the absence of Chairman Mrs. E. Redelmeier, Vice-Chain man Mrs. W. Pocknell warmly welcomed Mr. Chatfield, Stuart Parker, vice-chairman and Douglas Storms, first chairman of the hospital board and Mr. Britnell, accountant for the hos- pital. Mr. Parker added to the happy spirit generated by the feeling of the year‘s accomplishments by expres- sing the appreciation of the work the women have done. He said that the auxiliary and the board shared a co‘mmon interest in their desire for the highest pos- sible care of the patients. He extended thanks to the auxiliary for the financial assistance given and said he was astounded at the large number of hours of work given by the volun- teers 16.287 hours, which meant 1357 hours each month. Mrs. A. Lander reported that membership had dropped. She felt this was to be expected following the initial campaign for members and the remaining 425 were a keenly interested group of whom 420 were active.

In a report of the superin- tendent. it was shown that John Hincks, assistant principal at Walter Scott Public School, had received or made 462 calls durâ€" ing the year, having to do with the securing of or releasing of supply teachers. plus various other teaching situations. He said there were 16 sup- ply teachers on the list, and they had been hired a total of 337 times last season.

However, board members were concerned with the lack of reasons given for the propo- sal.

Finlay, reporting for the gift shop, provided an am- using moment when she said that one patient had drawn at- tention to the slogan on the match boxes, it read, “Come back soon." These were re- placed by another line only to find that the wording was, “Our customers are our best assets." Match boxes forth- with will have a less persuasive invitation. Mrs. Toby Shore concluded her summary of area activities, describing them as steady and productive. Junior auxiliaries provide the services of 42 volunteers. Re- porting for all of the volun- teers, Mrs. W. A. Smith stated that Mrs. R. J. Miller, director. had trained 175 members. Mrs. Miller installed the of- ficers, asking them to affirm their dedication to the work and promises of their offices. Members were asked to stand and pledge their dedicated sup- port to the auxiliary. Mrs. Pocknell called on Mr. Storms for a message and in his usual breezy manner he established rapport between himself and audience. He said he sometimes walked through the hospital just for the pleas- ure of it. He commented on the pervading cleanliness and the cheerful atmosphere and Iadded. “It doesn’t even smell like a hospital.“ A letter from the president. enroute to New Zealand was read by Mrs. Miller. She sent her greetings and regrets that she was not present and ex- pressed her pride in the suc- cessful and dedicated work of the members. to remain un call until seven. A recommendation of the superintendent that considera- tion be given to requesting York Central District High School Board to provide the services of a school psycholog- ist. or psychiatrist on a fee ba- sis, and that provision be made in the budget for same, was re- ferred to the planning commit- tee for study. The board also approved a recommendation that the anâ€" nual Junior Red Cross cam» paign for funds in all classroom branches be sanctioned. Trustee Stan McBeth was ap- pointed to replace former Trus- tee James LeMoine. who has resigned. on York County Ele- mentary School Trustees' As- sociation. Board Chairman Walter Hut- chinson suggested the crash program had been in the na- ture of research to see if'tea- chers could be developed. “What is it they are teach- ing people to teach?" asked Mr. McIntyre. “It seems to me they’re coming in the back door." Vice-chairman Deena Simp- son said she felt the board, which had been contemplating membership in the institute for 1965, should belong to it, but that a more definite outline of what courses were being con~ sidered, should be presented. “I don’t think we’re getting the guidance we should." said Mrs. Simpson. “I think French would be ideal, but they’re wor- rying about the teaching of it." He said the field of the in- stitute was not in the field of teacher training, but in curriâ€" culum itself. ’62 Pontiac Convertible ’62 Chevrolet Impala 285-5445 9612 Yonge Street 923-2942 ALL CARS EQUIPPED WITH 1965 LICENCES V8, automatic, power stegring, power brakes, custom radio, new top, in mist blue with matching interior. 2 Door Hardtop, two tone grey and and white with red interior, custom radio. white wall tires. low, low mileage, one owner trade.
