WHITBY FREE PRESS, WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 1984, PAUE 9 Al three say they're ready for Jaycees' all candidates meeting Five generations These two people represent some five generations of Whitby's founding family, the Lyndes, A re-union of the decendants of Jabez Lynde was held Sunday afternoon at the Lynde House Museum. Matthew Carpenter, aged 3, lives in Peterborough is Jabez Lynde's seventh great grandson and is seen here with Walter Lynde, 89, of Oshawa who is Lynde's great-great-great grandson. The stone they are sitting on was erected outside the family home, which was built circa 1812, in 1926 to mark the location of the oldest family residence between Toronto and Kingston. The last member of the family to live in the house was Elmina Lynde who lived until 1895 when it was given to All Saints' Anglican Church who in turn gave it in trust to the Town of Whitby. The Whitby Historical Society now operates the house, located at the corner of Dundas and D'Hillier Sts. as the local museun. Many of the Lynde family members attending the re-union had never met each other and spent much time placing their names on the family tree located on the second floor.

Ail three say they will focus not only on local issues but on the national issues of unemployment as well. Incumbent Pro- gressive Conservative MP Scott Fennell says that he welcomes ail candidates meetings as a chance to tell people what he and his party stand for. "I'm going to talk about job creation and what we're going to do to bring back the en- trepreneurial spirit in this country," he said. Fenneil also had nothing but praise for the Jaycees, who regularly hold ail can- didates meetings during federal and provincial and municipal elections. "I'm delighted to have the opportunity to go," he said, 'They run a really good can- didates'meeting." The New Democratic Party's Geoff Rison is also pleased that a local organization is holding such an event - especially since it falls at the height of the holiday season. "I want to present the major difference bet- ween the other parties and our party on as many issues as I can," he said, "I want to show that the only alter- native, if you want an alternative, is the New Democrats." Rison said that he will present the party's five major thrusts in the election: employment; equality for women; youth employment; fair taxation and, a more enlightened approach to disarmament. He also intends to bring forward some local issues including the lack of affordable housing lin the area, the Pickering airport and "the lacklustre perfor- mance of the sitting member." Also gearing up for the event is Liberal candidate Gary Herrema who says ail candidates meeting are worthwhile "if they get the people out." Such meetings, he ad- ded "let them see who can do the job and who can't." Herrema says that he too, wil talk about job creation and housing. "I'm going to talk about how the buck relates not only to Canada but to Whitby as weil," Herrema said, "I want to show how they relate to the local area, never mind the global picture." Everyone is welcome to attend the meeting and all candidates wiil be field questions from the audience. A spokesman for the Jaycees said that questions will be written down and presented to the candidates by the moderator. Photo of a well known painting of the Silver Dart by R. W.

Silver Dart replica at CNE Canada Pavilion Seventy-five years ago John Douglas McCurdy, in a fragile biplane called the Silver Dart, made Canadian aviation history by taking the first powered flight in this country, at Baddeck, Nova Scotia. The original Sijver Dart no longer exists, but a full-sized re- plica, the only one in Canada, is on view at the Canada Pavilion at the 1984 CNE, courtesy of the Canadian Aviation Historical Society. Nearby, another exhi- bit celebrates the 60th anniver- sary of the RCAF, and its suc- cessor, Air Command. On dis- play in this exhibit is the CT-134 Muskertie, the CF-5 used for pilot training and the cockpit of Canada's newest fighter the CF- 18. Many model planes will also be on view at the Pavilion. Throughout the rest of the spacious Canada Pavilion, a score of federal government agencies have exhibits where visitors can learn more about how their govemment functions. There will be plenty of things to do, from skiing down an artifi- cial ski "hill" at the Fitness and Amateur Sport exhibit to role- playing as a "member of the jury" as Justice Canada simu- lates typical courtroom scenes. Information abounds at the Canada Pavilion: from the Foot- ball Hall of Fame, where vis- itors will be able to see on dis- play the Grey Cup; finding out about the importance of our grain and minerals; to Canada's concerns for water, not just the quality of it, but the question of how much can be spared from the Great Lakes to supply cer- tain increasingly arid areas in the U.S. Visitors will be able to buy shiny new silver dollars and ob- serve the "world's biggest elec- tronic dictionary," which finds equivalent words and phrases in English and French in split seconds. Youngsters haven't been for- gotten. While their parents may be enjoying the continuous free stage shows of music and danc- ing, children will be able to watch puppet presentations, see a special play produced daily from the Canadian story book "Hole in the Fence" or even be fingerprinted by the RCM Pjust for the fun of it. Via Rail Can- ada will have some free goodies for the tots with buttons and balloons cheerfully dispensed by Mr. Choo Choo on weekend ap- pearances. Free coloring books posters and pins can be found at exhibits and again this year there will be a large supervised play area locked at the side of the Pavilion to keep the kids amused for hours. As always, the Pavilion pro- vides lots of fascinating things to do and see. Meet famed swim- mer Marilyn Bell on Friday, August 17th at 1:00 p.m. and Canadian astronaut-in-training Steve MacLean on Thursday, August 23rd at 1:00 p.m. Inter- act with the great number of electronic computers and de- vices found throughout the Pavilion and have your ques- tions answered by the many Government information offi- cers on hand. At the Canada Pavilion there will be a great deal to learn and, because of the new electronic and novel means of presenting information, that too should be a fun experience.
