Chin Family
Story Written
"The New Citizen", a Toronto pub-
lication, recently carried the following
sketch of the Chin Family of Luck-
now:
Mrs. Charles Chin of Lucknow,
Ontario has one big aim in life—to
see that all her children are contented
and secure in the vocations of their
choice. The fact that she has fourteen
of them ranging from the age of 10 to
29 years, puts her in a class out of
the ordinary, We feel that such an
ambition which is on its way to being
fulfilled, is worthy of note.
Mr, and Mrs, Chin were married
in Vancouver in 1920. The following
year they opened a restaurant in New-
market, Ontario and there, the first
five of the eleven boys were born. In
1927, the family sailed for Hong Kong
for a visit, where the sixth son was
born, .. Returning to Canada, after
leaving three of the boys in China to
get an education, they settled in Luck-
now, and it was there that the re-
mainder of the children came into the
world.
In 1937, the family was reunited.
The boys, Jim, Harry and Frank
returned from China in that year, but
were later separated from the family
in 1943 when Jim and Frank were in
the army and,Harry was in the air-
force. The war's end brought them
together again. Mr. Chin passed away
from a stroke in September, 1951.
Mr. and Mrs. Chin had always felt
that a strong spiritual background
was necessary for a happy home.
Members of the family have taught
Sunday School, conducted Y.P.S. meet-
ings, and sang in the choir of the

Triebnor, "of Exeter, at S.S. No. 9,
Kinloss, and Mr. Errington, of W.
Wawanosh, at Fordyce School,
Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Zinit and
family, of Turnberry, Mr, and Mrs.
Clifford Purdon and family, of Bel-
local Presbyterian Church, whose
former minister, the late Rev, C,
MacDonald, was moderator of the
General Assembly in 1949.
The Chins have also been very
active in school activities, 'They have
taken part in the students' couneils,
athletic society, and high school band.
Morley, Gladys, Charlie and Jack are
still members of that band.
All learned to skate and play hockey
on the local mill pond and the lack of
ice in warm weather did not put a
stop to their playing. In the spring
they played floor hockey in their base-
ment, and in summer there was
always field hockey. Their interest
in hockey has brought them much
publicity. Bill, Albert and George
teamed up in 1940 in the Bantam
League, rose quickly into the Inter-
mediates and in 1945 were invited to
try out for the Maple Leafs. They
played hockey in their Owen Sound
training camp.
George continued to play and in
1947 and 1949 he was with the Windsor
Junior Spitfires and Chatham Ma-
roons when they won their respective
championships. In 1950 he won a
sports scholarship to the University
of Michigan and has since played on
the university team that won two
consecutive championships. He was
voted this year by the American Press
to the All-Star University team, whose
members are picked from all Ameri-
can universities.
The Chins all started playing hockey
early. Jack and Charlie, 13 and 14
years respectively, have already begun
their hockey careers, winning the Pee
Wee and Bantam Championships in
their teams in the Bantam O.M.H.A.,
"D" division this year.
But education does not take a back
seat to sports in this family. Gladys
has won the proficiency shield as the
head of her class in all her high school
years. She has just completed her
Junior Matriculation. She and Mary
have both won awards in English and
History .
Today, the three eldest boys, Jim
Harry and Frank, are working in
Toronto at the St. Charles and the
Lichee Gardens. Sam and Bill are
both pharmacy students at the Uni-
versity of Toronto, Albert is assistant
manager of Chin's Restaurant in
Lucknow, George is on a four year
scholarship at Ann Arbor, Michigan,
and Mary and Margaret are both
student nurses in their second year
at Toronto Western and London Vic-
toria Hospitals, respectively. They are
all single.
Morley has just completed his
Honour Metric and Gladys her Junior.
Charlie has finished Grade 10 and
Jack is in Grade S and Allan Grade 5.
These latter five are still living with
their mother in Lucknow.
Mrs. Chin ensures the education of
those who have completed high school.
The family works in the „summer to
pay for most of their own education.
All Mrs. Chin wants in life is the sat-
isfaction that all her years of hard
labor and worry were not in vain.
From the look of things we know she
will not be disappointed.
P.C. Charged With
Careless Driving
An accident which resulted in be-
tween $700 and $1,000 damage to a
