Candles glowed in remem- brance of Mrs. Herbert Kirkby, a past president, and of Mrs. William Johns and Mrs. Charles Robert- son, - forme_ executive members. On behalf of the Canadian Commit- tee for World Refugee Year, Mrs. F. Fingland explained the purpose for Refugee Year and asked for the most generous support of all WMS workers for this cause. Res- olutions were presented by . Mrs. Milan Moore, Whitechurch. Those on temperance stressed the edu- cation of young people' through compulsory scientific' courses on the nature of alcohol in high schools. Others commended the federal government for its action re Refugee Year and CKNX Wing. ham, and The Churchmen for their fine religious programs. During the day the literature table was a very popular place. The highlight of the day was the address by a missionary, Miss Ruth Churchill, who- is serving in the cityd of Montreal. From her wide experience there -and in sev- eral other Canadian cities, she spoke bn the subject, "In the' Sha- dow of the Cross." High on Mount Royal, overlooking the city of Montreal, stands a huge cross, beautifully illuminated at night. In its - shadow the Church' seeks to meet the needs of the people of a cosmopolitan city—the Frenchman who would be a Protestant, the frightened immigrant, alone and friendless in a strange city, the outcasts of the slums -desperately needing food, clothing, friendship and g,iidance. Because our work- ers give spiritual'food as well as bread, vigorous, self-supporting congregations have been formed by those helped. Miss Churchill has been studying in Nashville, Tenn., for the past few months. She told of some shocking incidents of race discrimination she had wit- nessed there. But, she warned, "we make discrimination in Huron too, especially in our minds." On behalf of the Presbyterial, Mrs. E. McKinley paid fitting tri- bute to the work and devotion of the retiring president, Mrs. Mc- Vittie. Rev. J. C. Britton closed the meeting with prayer and the benediction.

The Legion corner (By JACK ROMANI)} Well, Comrades and friends, here we are going into April and at last the weather has become more springlike. liVe are hoping for good weather, so that we can finish up the exterior work on the new Legion. The interior is just about finished—thanks to a few eager beavers among our members. We have some real good hockey news this week. Our Pee Wees (121 and under) have just come through with a WOAA "C" cham- pionship of Western Ontario by de- feating Elora 8-6 on the round, and they have stepped into the "B" championship, and in the first game tied Walkerton 3-3. Keep up the good work, lads; the Legion is very proud of you. You know, folks, this is the team that will represent Seaforth and district in the Young . Canada hockey tournament held yearly in Goderich. They play their first game there at 5 p.m., April 15, against. Kincardine. Now a note on the more sober side. If any reader of this col- umn should have the misfortune to break a leg, or any other type of accident that requires a wheel chair, crutches, or a hospital bed, contact the Legion through Bill Smith, the grocer, or "Jalle" Cor- nish and they will see that you are fixed up with whatever you need. This is another of the com- munity services that the local branch provides free of charge. We are holding a public dance in the new hall on Friday, April 8, so all you young folk. who like to dance, dojft forget the date and come out and enjoy yourself , in Western Ontarid's finest ballroom. This winds it up for this week, so we'll close with a thought for our Comrades: "At the going down of the sun and in the morning we shall remember them:" --- LEMON'S LEMON'S TAXI and PARCEL SERVICE All passengers Insured I;EtIL PEONES.:DAV% 676 .675 and FUEL OIL Wm.
