The many friends of Miss Ag- nes Boyle will be so sorry to learn that she had to have an emergency operation for appen- dicitis a week ago Monday night. However, she is progres- sing very favorably. She is in York Central Hospital, Room 215. and would be so glad to receive cards from any of you. The senior adults, who meet every second week or so at Thornhill United, had a delight- ful bus trip last week. First they had a stop-over at Mrs. Katherine Fierheller's farm. From there they drove to the McMichael Art Gallery at Kleinburg. In spite of the heat they enjoyed the gallery and the beautiful surroundings. They had tea at the “Doctor’s House" and came home well satisfied with their outing. Last week I dropped into two camps operated and administer- ed by the Metro Toronto YW- CA. They do not limit their campers to the Toronto area. They are both in the vicinity of Parry Sound. Tapawingo, the larger and the older of the camps, is three miles north of the city, located on a truly won- derful hay, part of Georgian But. The large islands across from it, protect it from the winds, and also give a magnifi- cent outlook. The more than 200 acres of property provide hills and rocks, playing fields, and a large waterfront. a great deal of room to move about in, and privacy. The buildings are most attractive and the equip- ment in excellent condition. Besides sail boats, row boats and canoes there are some ky- aks for additional fun. Swim- ming, tripping, crafts and land sports are all there under ex- cellent leadership for this is a skill-oriented camp. So much so that they are planning a picnic for this Thursday at the Tamblyn‘s “Little Brook Farm."

Thornhill is very quiet these hot days. Children are hurrying to the swimming pool, and the local pools come awake in the evening. John Street is now be- ing sodded around the new side- walk, a great improvement. The library has had its face lifted with a new coat of fresh paint. And I am sure that this weather is not helping the water supply!

One girl seemed to be getting a large share of those, and it turned out to be Jane Goodyear who had placed in the gymnastic competition and performed at the variety show at Thornhill Secondary. Congratulations, Jane. I was delighted to see both these camps, and to realize that 70 girls were profiting by this experience this summer.

His two stormy marriages, his seeming indifference to his children, his parsimony and exhibitionism are in strange contrast to his industry as a novelist of great popularity and critical aclaim. Following the ceremony a buffet reception was held in the garden of the bride’s home. Mrs. Tobey received the guests wearing a colorful floor length gown featuring a full skirt of Hawaiian print and a plain yel- low silk bodice. She wore a purple orchid. Entertaining at various show- ers prior to the wedding were Mrs. Lorne Den-by and Irene Denby. Mrs. Robert McIntosh and Mrs. Douglas Rochester. Linda Malone and Mrs. Frank Rosenberg and Mrs. Robert Blair and Mrs. Peter Lankin. and the consequent sufferings of Captain Fraser and his wife. After seeing her husband tor- tured and killed, Mrs. Fraser was later rescued after under- going unspeakable indignities. A woman of many parts, her later sojourn in England was a period of lurid notoriety. The bride is a graduate of Thornhill Secondary School, Ryerson Polytechnical Institute and the Toronto Teachers’ Col- lege. She will be teaching home economics and physical education in Etobicoke.
