McKIBBON Phone 475 Wingham 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 Dead Stock DEAD AND CRIPPLED FARM ANIMALS REMOVED PROMPTLY FOR SANITARY DISPOSAL Telephone Collect Palmerston 123w Durham 398 GORDON YOUNG LIMITED WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 01 1952 village gardens this week, and all Miss 'Sabel Elliott started clerking hope that frost will not come for in the N, J, Welwood store in Wing- sometime yet. ham on Monday last, PeOcawil TEA PHONE: 241 PONTIAC — BUICK — G.M.C.

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.
