We note that in the Janu- ary 14, 1974 issue of the same magazine. King Town- ship resident Norman E. Bair-d replies to their editor- ial. Mr. Baird is a member of Principal Heating â€" a di- vision of Canada Electric and president of the Toronto Sheet Metal and Air Hand- ling Group. His reply to the editor of the HPAC explains the position of the associa- tion he represents and of their support for a strong provincial group. In the November 5, 1973, issue of the Heating. Plumb- ing and Air Conditioning magazine published by South- em Press, an editorial “chastised” the Toronto Sheet Metal and Air Handâ€" ling Group for their appar- ent non-support of the rec- ent Canadian Association of Sheet Metal and Air Hand- ling Contractors. Instead of working with the Ontario group, Mr. Baird contends that the “national organization arranged its convention and conference first. then asked the Ontario group to participate after the event had been set up".

Mrs. Britnell was one of the original group who met as early as 1967 to lobby for this service.

The Toronto Archdiocesan Cath- olic Women’s League Public Speaking Contest is an an- nual event and the winner of the oratorical competition is eligible to enter the regional trials held later in Richmond Hill. Each contestant delivered her chosen speech and was also asked to ad lib her way through an impromptu talk drawn at random. Winner of the event was Nobleton resident Amanda Salter on the topic "The Cir- cus". Miss Salter is the daughter of Dorothy and William Salter and cele« brated her 14th birthday February 8. Other contest- ants were Kathy Knowles. Marlin Muylaert, Sandra Philips.

Dianne McCormick of the CWL was. as usual. busy with organizational duties and in informing the press.

In 1948 up to the year 1957 (when he last vis- ited China), little good was spoken of China, while today it is hailed by some as a “Land of Promise”. “The truth lies somewhere be- tween.” he said. By DONNA MATTHEWS A most interesting speak- er highlighted the January 28 meeting of the York County branch of the Can- adian Federation of Univers- ity Women held at Kings- craft House in King. Dr. Lewis Walmsley, whose col- lection of contemporary Chinese art is now on dis- play in the new Bethune College, Y o r k University, taught for 26 years in China until the Communist take- over and since his retire- ment in 1962 has travelled extensively and done some writing. A comparison between the West and China then fol- lowed. The Chinese are no different from the Western people biologically but they differ in that there is an enthusiasm and motivation in their actions. The West is caught up in a spirit of com- petition. in China it is one of coâ€"operation. The Chinese feel that honest hard work and effort with co-operation COMBINATION “The Liberal" is always pleased to publish items of interest regarding peo- ple and events in Oak Ridges - Lake Wilcox and King City districts.

Dr. Walmsley continued with a description of Chin- ese higher education which includes manual labor and medical services which are available to all even though on a very basic level. The evening concluded with questions from the group. The women of China began to count only after the Communist take-over. A late marrying age and wide distribution of birth control information has helped to fight the population expos- ion. Dr. Walmsley answered his final question on the state of the Arts in China by telling his audience that in literature and drama pol- itical themes are dominant, but there is some freedom for artists to paint as they wish.
