The Miracles That Built St. Edwards
Ten years ago there was a barn standing empty
in a field in West Rouge that was slated for
demolition to make room for development.
At the same time, Rev. Bill Wheeler, thenpas-
tor of St. Simon's Anglican Church, Highland
Creek, was drawing members from the West
Rouge area because St. Simon's was their nearest
Church.
The Anglican Church Extension Committee
owned the field in which the barn stood, but
nothing had been done with it as yet. Rev. Bill
decided that people driving from West Rouge to
Highland Creek for services, plus a sturdy,
empty barn on Church -owned land could, with
the proper manipulation, add up to a commun-
ity hall in West Rouge that could be used for
services on Sundays as well as social activi-
ties - in short, a social and religious centre
in a growing community where it was badly
needed.
Rev. Wheeler has long been noted for being
a man of action and great resourcefulness, and
this part of his make up went into high gear.
Demolition plans were cancelled; a $1,000
donation acquired; funds from the Anglican
Committee were obtained; and 15 volunteers in
the neighbourhood got to wark evenings and
weekends with tools, home skills and brawn.
and a year later St. Edward's Community Cen-
tre opened up.
Cubs, Scouts, Brownies and other local events
filled the hall on weekdays; and this praz-,ical
pastor took turns with his lay preachers con-
ducting services and Sunday School on weekends.
Thus it operated until Jan. 1st, 1966, when edit-
ing the Canadian Churchman took up too much
of Rev. Wheeler's time; a young Anglican Church
Army captain. Captain R.S. MacDonald, was sent
to St. Edwards to take over under the guidance
of Rev. G.A. Young, present pastor o` the Church
of the Holy Trinity, Guildwood Village.
Captain MacDonald, also a man of action and
much faith. decided that St. Edwards had grown
to the extent that renovation would be timely.
The job was again done mostly by volunteer
labour - "and miracles." claims the Captain.
According to this young enthusiast, the success
of his project seemed to hinge on a number of
miracles: New pews were needed. Pews were
delivered from St. Peters on Brimley Rd. when
that Church decided to update; also their altar
moved into St. Edward's. A large amount of
lumber was needed, but cash was short. This
need was met by a surprise donation of "exactly

ation under the guidance of Captain MacDonald.

■w■st Q
enough lumber for the job."
Then there was the "miracle of the red carpet."
The square of red carpet that had graced the
former smaller altar was feared not to be enough
for the area of the new altar, which included
some steps. But the Captain and Ws helpers
Just started cutting and fitting, and low and be-
hold, the piece, like the bread and fishes in the
New Testament, went around exactly.
Today, St. Edward's has its larger altar at the
other end of the building, under the cross -
shaped window that was made from a hag opening
in 1958; a panelled office and meeting room
upstairs where the hayloft used to be, and Sun-
day School and meeting rooms in the basement.
And it is a picture to see with sun shining through
the stained glass of the cross - windows, pointing
interesting shadows under the arch and on the
book shelves near its entrance; and bringing to
life the wood of the altar cross that was made
by hand by Thomas Pearl of Pfefferlaw, father-
in-law of Mrs. Charlene Pearl of W.3st Rouge.
Captain MacDooald is very proud of the results
of his project and faith. How did he feel when
he first walked into St. Edward's Church over a
year ago, to become the pastor of a congregation
whom he had n_ver met before? Nervous? "Not
at all," said the yo.ing m. -n in thegray uniform.
"I knew I was not alone when I entered. My
Leader went before me, and I knew everching
would w•.)rk o.tt. "

"COWLETE WAUT1t CULTURE"
Against Capital Gains Tax
Dear Sir:
A capital gains tax -- the ultimate socia:ist
stab in the back of the few imaginative entre-
preneurs who dare to put their money to
speculative use for the advancement of Cana-
dian ownership of Canada.
Recent polls of the man on the street, re-
flect that nearly everyone is concerned about
the extent of foreign ownership of Canada's
industries. Nearly everyone expressed the idea
that something should be done about it. Nobody
was asked by the pollsters "How many shares
do you own in a Canadian Company?" - the
key pertinent question. The sorry fact re-
mains that Mr. Average Canadian will not avail
himself of sufficient knowledge to participate in
ownership of Canada's industries through the
purchase of shares of common stock of our
various companies.
Instead of countering this sorry condition
by suggesting to the government ways and means
of fostering greater Canadian participation in
the ownership of their own industries through
Investment Clubs and educational processes etc.,
there are those amongst us who are doing a dis-
service to this great country by suggesting that
the Government of Canada should cut itself in
as a partner in the profit, BUT NOT THE LOSS,
of those of us who have had the intestinal forti-
tude to do without some of the good things of
life to amass a little pool of "risk capital",
and use it imaginatively. This, in spite of the
fact that our little dividends are already in-
come taxed. We cannot think of a finer way
for the government to dry up whatever source
of risk capital there is in this country, than
through such an iniquitous tax.
Place yourself in the position of a person who
purchased a home in the 1950's on a strategi-
cally located lot (but not for speculative pur-
poses) who finds that through a stroke of "once
In a life -time" good luck can sell on today's
market and reap a moderate profit on his in-
vestment. Something we all dream about. some-
thing we all wish could happen to us, yet the
government, according to some, should become
our partners for 15 of 20% of the mark up, al-
though we have paid heavily in taxes already
down through the years.
Now far can any government reach into the
pocket book of the individual and still retain
the facade of democracy?
If Capital Gains "Tax there must be. in order
not to completely destroy the thrift, imagina-
tion and democratic souls of those of us who
still believe that some of OUR money should
be left at OUR disposal. we believe that it
should not be applicable to any persons whose
average income over the last 10 years was less
than $10.000.
Yours truly,
Robt. F. Hunter.

Housing Starts
Decline In Metro
Residential construction in Metro Toronto
slumped drastically in the first quarter of this
yea, according to a survey issued by the Toronto
Real Estate Board last Fri. Apr. 14th.
Building permits issued in Toronto and the six
Boroughs will allow only 1447 housing units of
all types in March this year compared to 2184
for the same month last year.
E.W. Dempster President of the Real Estate
Board predicted that although more apartment
building is anticipated for the balance of 1967,
the shortage of "family type" housing will
grew worse as the number of new single family
homes coming onto the market dwindles.
I he most critical housing shortage is centred
in Metro and the unusual increase in demand,
coupled with the unusual drop in busing supply
has had its effect on house prices.
In the Central Mortgage & Housing Corporation
booklet "Canadian Housing Statistics" the aver-
age price of a bungalow in Metro financed under
NHA increased 17.2 per cent from $19,677 in
1465 to $23,056 in 1966 while the average cast
of a Metro building lot jumped 22.8 percent from
$5,777 to $7,097.
"Something is seriously wrong with planning
by governments at all levels when a piece of
land in Toronto costs three times as much
as it does in any other major city in North
America," said Mr. Dempster. "The aver-
age NHA building lot in Halifax is $2046 and
in Montreal $2558. Building lots in other Cana-
dian centres range from $3095 in Winnipeg
to $3541 in Edmonton and $4200 in Windsor.
Mr. Dempster still feels that this is a good
time to buy a house. "The residential market
is strong. The cost of construction and land
is rising and thirdly, the relationship of new
house building to known new demand is declin-
ing. All these reasons point to a continued
scarcity of both new and used homes," he said.

After New Members
Watch and listen for the sound truck on Sat.,
April 29, in West Shore.
The West Shore Association is going out for
two purposes: first is a Membership Drive,
and following the sound truck will be your
executive and fellow members in the Asso-
ciation, to help you and assist you in pining
the Association and becoming a part of your
community. Secondly, we are on the lookout
for all of our volunteers to help with the Cen-
tennial Park which is called West Shore Glen.
All kinds of help, raking, digging holes, plant-
ing trees and shrubs is needed. Planting should
start within two or three weeks, so send your
name in.
Remember: The greater the number of mem-
bers, the more force we have - the higher per-
centage of homeowners who are members of
this Association - the more weight carried at
Council meetings, and with various other com-
mittees and associations in the area.
This greater membership and higher percent-
age strengthens the backbone of the Association,
and will, in the long run, help YOU as a resi-
dent to enjoy to the fullest the homeowners'
rights which are quite often overlooked by those
very individuals which you have helped put
where they are. Greet your Executive and future
fellow members with a smile and your member-
ship. You will greatly benefit by it. Recreation
planned for you is, in most cases free, to you
as a member of the Association. You will have
your West Shore Glen which is a park that will
include palygrounds. We will shortly have a
beginning on our new South Park.
That is Saturday, April 29th - you will hear
us - come out and see us!

For the best flavour,
,keep fresh port sau-
sages in air tight pack-
ages in the refrigera-

seasoned ones within
about 3 days; the more
highly seasoned varie-
ties can be kept longer
without loss of flavour.
West Shore Centennial
Project Needs People
The West Shore's Association Parks Com-
mittee, of which Paul Hrynkiw is Chairman,
is finally seeing signs of being able to start
work on the Centennial Plan's major point,
the "West Shore Glen". This park will con-
sist of a landscaped promenade park, and a child-
ren's playground park, together with a natural
ravine promenade park, for which formal plans
were drawn up by professional landscape archi-
tects.
Most of the rough grading is done now, and
they are proceeding with the fine gradin
The bulldozer will mark out the pathways,
which have now been staked out, and the first
lot of gravel will be laid. Within the next two
or three weeks, the majority of the shrubs
and trees will be planted, and the ground will
all be raked ready for seeding. Work will also
begin on the playground park, and after the equip-
ment has gone through and done rough clear-
ing through the natural ravine promenade park,
then it will be necessary to follow along behind
with the cleaning up that is necessary, but which
will still allow it to be as close as possible
to its natural state.
All of this requires Manpower - Womanpower -
Childpower. Anyone who can help and who can
donate a few hours of his or her time. We need
people to rake, people to dig and plant shrubs,
to work on the playground section. The Parks
Committee is set up with several different super-
visors for the different sections of the park
and the different jobs which have to be done.
But we must know who!
Phone anybody on the executive and let them
know what you can do or would like to help
with, or phone Paul Hrynkiw at 839-2008. Re-
member - this park is yours and will be there
for you to enjoy - if we all put our shoulders
to the wheel (so -to -speak) and push. The plant-
ing must be done and completed before the end
of May - the grading and raking can take a little
longer. And bring a neighbour to keep you com-
pany - don't be the only one at your end of the
street to help - they will be willing too.

hall this season, is looking forward to an excel-
