Rotary Club is truly alive, and carries out a tremendous amount of community, charitable and benevolent, fraternal and social activities, was clearly demonstrated when Vice- President A.A.Boire, outlined, at the regular weekly luncheon on Wednesday, the work that had been carried on during the last six months by the various committees of the Club.\"What he divulged in his resume of the activities of the committees, is an indication that in spite of all adverse conditions created by war times, the Westmount Rotary Club can not only be proud of what it has already accomplished, but expect that when the annual report is submitted, it willw show that the organization has progressed and made a success of #11 it has undertaken to carry out.A very satisfactory financial statement was submitted, and President-A, W.Callard, who was fn the chair, Wäs sincerely congratulated for the splendid man- mer in which he had directed the activities of the Club during the last six months, In the report of the committees\u2019 activities, it was shown that \u2018the Carnival Committee, which is presided over by E.A, Everson, had made some $12,000 clear in four days.Smokes for Service Men The report of the War Services Committee, whose chairman is D.A.W.McKean, showed that 10,- 000 cigarettes had been provided to the officers and men of H.M.C.S, \u201cWestmount,\u201d as well as two bicycles, Every Westmount boy serving in the armed forces over- geas, in the army, navy or air force, received 300 cigarettes a month.The programme committee under the able chairmanship of P.J.M.Andrews, had provided first class and most interesting speakers, and had otherwise contributed considerably to the entertainment of the members of the Club.Special mention.was made of the Youth\u2019s Service committee, who has as its chairman, W.G.Moxley.The boys\u2019 camps and clubs had carried out a splendid work, and had obtained most sat- tsfactory and wonderful results.The Fellowship committee, headed by D.Kerr, had arranged for meetings with other organi- gations, through golf tournaments end other similar activities outside the city.The International Service Committee, whose chairman is C.T.Medlar, suffered considerably from existing war conditions, and its activities had therefore to be drastically curtailed.To Get Together It was stated that one of the best ways to get better acquainted was through visits to outside clubs, and this had been carried put by the Inter-Club committee, under the chairmanship of R, G.Burgoyne, _ The Personnel committee, under the chairmanship of E.A.Harrison; the Membership committee, directed by T.C.Stokes; the Service committee, whose chariman ig C.T.Medlar; the Attendance committee under W, W.Murray; the Finance

Brigade, drop in this past Friday, while en route home after a three year period abroad, with the R.C.AF.He was warmly welcomed by a number of his former boys, now in The Boys\u2019 Brigade Company, and immediately following his inspecting the Company, he was requested by Captain Richardson to remark on his findings.He commenced by stating how thrilled he was to see some of the old boys of his Life Boy Team now serving in the Company, particularly noting several with stripes of rank, showing that they had progressed most favourably, He was pleased to note all uniforms so well polished and said it brought him back to his boyhood days in the 3rd Hamilton Company.Prior to taking up leadership with the 1st Company, he had served from boy to officer in this Company and had proved to be a most successful leader.Later when asked to bring the boys a brief Christmas message, Flt.-Lt, Scott recounted several thrilling experiences which he had during the Blitz and then went on to say how much his early training in the Brigade had meant to him for it was put to a great test and withstood, particularly did he stress what the Spiritual training had meant to him, bringing from his pocket the B.B.Testament which every boy receives upon being enrolled in the Company, and stating that it was this book which had proved to be his greatest companion throughout; reading from it daily, he received Gke © Serving the City of Westmount, Garden Suburb of Canada\u2019s Metropolis ~~.AWARDED THE O.B.E, Brigadier Robert William Moncel, of Westmount, who has beon granted a new honor, Westmount

shifted.So will Pop's.He likes it at WHS and may prefer to retire than take up duties at Roslyn, Fingerprints Convict Thief Footprints on the dry sand are easily erased by even the slightest breeze, but the fingerprints left by the dirty greasy hands of John Papas, 31, of no known address, remained in such indelible markings on a piece of glass that they convicted him of theft and sent him to jail for a year.ered the \u201cWestmount Restaurant,\u201d on St.Catherine street west had been robbed, several months ago, they were mystified and puzzled.The place had been broken into by smashing a window, and careful scrutiny and examination of pieces of glass by a member of the Westmount detective force, resulted in the discovery of a number of fingerprints.Papas had heen held on suspicion, and when his fingerprints the necessary strength to carrya-were checked with those on the him through, He stressed very strongly to the boys that they too would certainly derive much benefit by reading their Testament daily, in keeping with their enrolment promise.He will remain in Hamilton for a week to ten days and then return to Montreal where it 1s quite likely he will be able to resume the leadership of his Former Life Boy Team.The boys were proud to see him wearing the D.F.M.Activities are being carried on throughout the holiday period and this week it is expected a special feature will be introduced on Friday.Edwin Goring was made welcome this past Friday as he (Continued on Page 3) glass they were found to correspond and he was faced with the direct charge of theft.Although he

avenue and Dorches- ter street, Mrs.H.Proulx, of 60 Lafleur avenue, and Donald Tremblay, 11 years of age, who were passengers in a car driven by H.Tremblay, of 4526 Des Erables street, were injured.Mrs, Proulx and the boy were taken to the Western Division of the General Hospital.Mrs.Proulx was treated for broken teeth and the boy for cuts on the face, but they were able to return to their respective homes as their wounds were not considered serious.William Clack, of Aubry, Cha- teauguay county, who was in charge of the other auto, escaped without any injury.The accident was investigated by constables Morgan and Dunbar of the City of Westmount police force.Carols Presented By Trinity Choir The choir of Trinity Memorial Church gave a Carol Recital on Sunday evening, at 7

Westmount?Answer\u2014The Côte St.Antoine Road, which gave its name to the first incorporated village.We do not know the exact age of this road.It may have begun as an Indian trail.We do know, however, that it formed à branch of the Chemin de la Montagne, which ran west from the Recollet Gate of Ville Marie.(Little St.Antoine St., a section of Dorches- ws NEY Flowers For NEW YEAR'S Corsages

for land grants by the Seminary of St.Sulpice, (Seigneurs of the Island), after the Fort de la Montagne was established in 1684.The \u2018\u2018Côte\u2019\u2019 system of granting land in long narrow strips, fronting on a shore, or further back, on a main road, was used in early French Canada, primarily for defence against Indian raids; so that all the farm houses could be built near together, and the men working in the fields could be within call of each other.According to one tradition, the Côte St.Antoine was the safest road from Ville Marie to Lachine, because, being well back from the river, it was out of the way of passing Iroquois raiders.It therefore was early chosen by prudent settlers, who, nevertheless, fortified their farmhouses, VITAL MATERIALS NEEDED Newspapers, Batteries,

most interesting films of the year, opened yesterday at the Monkland United Theatre, with Irene Dunne and Charles Boyer.An engrossing story, brilliant dialogue, big emotional scenes\u2014 all unforgettably sympathetic\u2014 contribute to the dramatic sweep of this poignant romance of two intuitive and highly intelligent people who are able to analyze their own hearts\u2014and brave enough to do something about it.Miss Dunne plays the role of a \u2018woman of the world; Boyer is seen as a Continental Casanova.Although both are engaged to people of wealth and are without financial stability themselves, the two fall desperately in love with each other during an ocean trip.Because it it the first real love to come into their ill-spent lives, they agree to forsake their chance at luxury, Boyer to make good in six months.* The valiant efforts of the two to justify their existence, their respective trails of sacrifice, bitter disappointment and brave struggle, and an unforeseen accident that forces one to drop from the other's life, are events which build toward an intensely dramatic climax when Fate finally reunites them.Local Rotarians (Continued from Page 1) vertising and

but we can console ourselves with the thought that they all contribute to victory.We can\u2019t complain.Qur war effort has produced tremendous results with remarkably little inconvenience to the average citizen.NEW YEAR\u2019S RESOLUTION FOR WOMEN We heard a woman sæŸ, the other dav, that she had made a New Year's resolution to find out what her husband did at the office all day long.Save yourself the trouble, madam; here's a representative account of a busy man\u2019s day at the office: In the first place, a man isn't at the office all day.From the time he leaves his bed until he gets to the office, an hour and a half is consumed.approximately as follows: Twen- ty-five minutes for bathing, shaving.dressing.Twenty-five minutes for breakfasting and reading.Thirty minutes for transportation.Ten minutes for walking to the office.On arrival at his desk.he talks over, with his peers, last night\u2019s radio, the Walter Lippmann editorial, and the morning news.That takes twenty-five minutes.His mail takes an hour, depending on its quality and quantity.Now it\u2019s ten o'clock and he receives a call reminding him of a luncheon committee meeting at 12.30.He receives another call reminding him of a conflicting engagement, which requires that he cancel the other engagement, but not without the promise to drop around as soon as he can tear himself loose from the first luncheon.; That brings him to 10.20, and a man calls to sell him a new heating arrangement for the house.It\u2019s now 10.45, which seems to be a good time to dictate letters; but since the Canadian Art Theatre Starts Auspiciously BY RENE DE CARTERET At a time when the age-old characters.the part of some of the leading have to pitch in and raise some more money.He gets away at 2.00 and rushes to the second meeting, arriving just in time to hear about another deficit.He\u2019s back at hte office at 2.55.Meanwhile more mail has accumulated and four telephone messages from personal friends, reminding him of engagements at 4.00, 4.30, 4.45 and 5.30.He calls back, confirms two and promises to do the best he can on the other two.He locates a stenographer, attacks his mail, but finds that little of it demands his personal attention, particularly since he is so rushed with important matters.He shoves it at the girl, telling her to do the best she can with it, Now it\u2019s 3.45 and he\u2019s due uptown in fifteen minutes.He confers with his assistants and delivers a few well-placed rebukes or compliments.He manages to check in at 4.10 with his friends.In fact.he looks in at three places and is home at 6.45.And yet some women doubt that men work like slaves. re RAR stone CAC CARR A BR 4 6 \u2018apte Four Divisions , In the Pee Wees The pee wee section of the Westmount Municipal Hockey League will be split up into four divisions this year, two of them four team groups and the other pair, three team groups.The King George division will be composed of four clubs from Roslyn School with the captains heing Mike McCuiloch, John Fer- rabee, Jim Brown and Mori Jaques.The Prince Albert division will have three teams from King's school and one from the West- mount Y.M.C.A.The Teams from King's include John Gillingham\u2019s Panthers, George Gough's Rinky- dinks and Andy Cote's Aces.The three team Western division includes a trio of outfits from St.Leo's Academy, namely the Greens, Reds and Greys.- The Staynor division includes three teams from Queen's school with Ray Boxer acting as captain for the Flyers, Eddy Kalil as captain of the Eagles and Ray Beaton as captain of the Corvettes.Games will be played \u2018on the Roslyn, Prince Albert, Western, St.Leo's and Queen\u2019s rinks.The Western and Staynor divisions will play inter-sectional games and at the end of {the season the four champions wu meet in a playoff to decide the city championship.Ÿ The three teams from King's school have lined Up most of their players with the Panthers signing on captain John Gillingham, Carl Burton, Mike Barnard, Bob Sherlock, Don Smith, Tim Col- linge, John Petrie and Allan Lightfoot.The Rinkydinks have captain George Gough, Bob Bun- ten, David Mackie, James Lough, John Lough, Jan Sandzelius, Eric McFadden ad Ronnie Aldred.Ande Cote's Aces have Sonny Gales, Howard Rosen, .Jack Cote, Peter Giffin, Stan North and Fred Russell.The three Staynor division teams have also lined up their players and captain Ray Boxer of the Flyers has signed up G.Davidson, G.Fehr, F, Wratten, R.Cohen, B.Feldstein, C.Petch and R.Monette.The Corvettes under captain Ray Beaton have signed up D.Kerr, B.Anthony, BE.Hough, J.Dorrance, N.Alanasoff, P.Craig, F.Eartly and J.Bea- sant.Eddie Kalil's Eagles include Gilmour Beasant, Fred MacDonald, John Smith, Bruce McBean, Drummond Marshall, James Craig and Bob Whiteside, The schedules for the teams in all four sections will be published in the Examiner next week but the team captains are asked to call in at the office in the greenhouse and get,a copy from Recreation Supefvisor Jim McCor- miek immediately.k é The Westmount Examiner Classified Advertising Two cacy \\ : = ess = , \\ PACE ELEVEN \u2014 PHONE YOUR ADS \u2014 WAlnut 2773x 15 WORDS 35.2c for each additional word rm \u201cpieces, ROOMS TO LE\" MONTREAL WEST\u2014Two large aa- furnished rooms, with sun porch.Private home, $35.WA.1500.W-14 ROOM & BOARD GOOD home for elderly seml-invalid, male or female, nursing care, tray service, MA, (681.W-22 GARAGES WANTED WANTED\u2014 Heated garage, vicinity Argyle and Sherbrooke.WE, 1065.W-20 DOMESTIC HELP WANTED General Housework Apartment on Cote des Neiges, 9-12 every morning except Sunday.50e.an hour.WJ.8051.\\W-26 PERSONAL BENTONA Noted Psychologist reader.Trouble Speclalist for men and women.Questions answered.Appointments daily.F1.0801, W-15 AVENUE Tea Room, 364 Victoria Avenue.Home cooked meals, afternoon teas, teacup, card, palm and ar- FOR SALE LET a graduate pharmacist fill your prescriptions.Due to our policy of 6.30 p.m.closing, it Is possible for Mr.A, Rochman, B.Ph,, to fill every prescription we get We will call for and deliver your prescriptions at no extra charge.SOMERLED DRUG STORE 4625 WILSON AVE.DExter 1161.CHESTERFIELD VELOURS combination, never used, 3 modern gpring filled, sacrifice immediately, $75.00.EL.3614.5826 Sherbrooke Street West.w-3 ONE model aeroplane engine.FI.1020.W-17 BUNK beds, $37.50;
