Accordingly, on December 1 a Dominion-wide campaign for the col­ lection of fats and bones was launch- by this Division in co-operation with the Oils and Fats Administration of the Wartime Prices and Trade Board. Mrs. Phyllis Turner, Oils and Fats Administrator, has declared that the urgency of this fats and bones col­ lection campaign is real and great. 'Canada needs, through salvaged fats and bones, 35,'0'0'0,0'00 pounds ■of fat a year. That would appear to be a lot of fat, but, actually, it means only about one ounce of fat pel* person per week. This is not just another brief campaign, with a spurt to be put on for a few days or weeks and then dropped, sustained, every household, hotel and restau­ rant, from day to day, fromt week to week and from month to month, for the duration of the war until vic­ tory is won, Housewives are the key people in this collection. They are asked to take their fats and bones to their meat dealer. In any community where a fats and bones collection system is already in operation, eith­ er 'through the municipal collection or Sponsored by a local voluntary salvage committee, housewives can continue to dispose of their fats and bones through such system,. The Canadian meat dealers, (your butcher), as their contribution to the l'4rar effort, have undertaken to ac­ cept salvaged fats and bones at their stores and see -that they are for­ warded to the Tenderers and meat packers for the recovery of vital glycerine for explosives and of oth­ er materials essential for war in­ dustries. Likewise, the Tenderers and pack­ ers throughout Canada have pro­ mised their hearty cooperation in making the campaign a success. ywua^BB,uwMw*uu*iuaBRw^^ “ARE YOU RUPTURED?

Sanders, of town, ceived word on Tuesday of the death of his brother, Charles Sanders, of Gilbert Plains, Manitoba, who pass­ ed away in his eightieth year. The deceased had been poorly for two or three years and critically ill for the past few months. Born and raised on the fourth concession of Stephen, he was a son of the late Thomas San­ ders. For five years he farmed in Stephen Township before going to Manitoba in 1891. He was married in Manitoba and is survived by widow and four daughters. JOSPH H. AMOS, 95 dies in McGillivray his Me­ MISSIONARY FIELD SEC’Y AT MAIN ST. CHURCH “This Business of Missions,” was the sermon topic of Rev. Mr. Wil­ liams, of Toronto, in Main Street Church on Sunday evening. Any­ one who criticizes Christian mis­ sions is in reality criticizing Christ more than the church, as it was Christ himself who gave, the march­ ing* order to his followers, “Go ye into all the vrorld and preach the gospel.”. A war-weary world looks for hope in the famous Atlantic charter but the Christian church has been proclaiming -the same message of freedom for 2,0'00 years. The church is ‘the great pioneering, the greatest humanitarian and most constructive institution in the world. The business of missions is the most romantic in the sense of being a greater venture. Think of the ad­ ventures of Livingston in Africa, Morrison in China and McKay in Formosa. The speaker spent a num­ ber of years as a missionary in For­ mosa and lived for a, time in Mc­ Kay’s house. To be the first to sow the seed of the Christian gospel in a pagan land is a thrilling adventure to say the least. It is the aim of the missionaries to establish a self- supporting, self-propagating church- as soon as possible. This has accomplished in Form'osa. Fifty-five percent of all the cated Chinese have received education in Christian schools. Our missionaries, notably, Rev. Dicken­ son, of West 'China, have done much to improve the material comfort of the natives by introducing better farming methods, better livestock, better grain and hence better ba­ bies and better men and women. The medical doctor rendered a service for Christ in the mission field that T. can never be measured. Rev. Williams said that he well remembered the first leper he saw, who 'looked up at him in prayer, begging for help. The prayer has been answered as a splendid institution to cure the lepers is now at work in Formosa. Joseph Henry Amos, former Gillivray Township engineer and an active church worker, died Monday night at his home in his 94th year. For more than 60 years, iMr. Amos was Sunday School superintendent in the United Church at Brinsley, giv­ ing up the position only 14 years ago. He was a member of the session nearly all .his life and for many years was recording steward. Born in 'Carlyle, England, he cros­ sed the Atlantic with his parents when he was six months old. His parents became pioneer settlers of McGillivray Township, where Mr. Amos grew up and later farmed. In his younger days he made a reputation in framing barns and dir­ ected barn raisings. Active in com­ munity work he was for many years the township engineer. He was a staunch Liberal. Mr. Amos was a member ,of the Wtest McGillivray C. O. F. His wife, the formei* Frances Mary Craven, predeceased him nine•years ago. Four children also predeceased him. Surviving are four sons, W. Amos, Lucan; J. Linwood Amos, Brinsley; ‘Alvin Amos, London; Dr. J. E. Amos, Brantford;’ and one daughter, Mary B. Amos, at home.

This one was presented by the London Little Theatre and proved to be a great hit with everyone. As has been the custom the hall was jammed to the roof and everyone left "owing the place xnoney”, as the saying goes. There were 27 numbers in all, including skits, orchestra selections, singing, dancing and monologues, to say nothing of a splendid chorus of t lovely girls who possessed the most gorgeous costumes you could pos­ sibly imagine. Following the show a supper was served to the cast on the stage of the Recreation hall and large plates ot sandwiches and cake were brought from the airmen’s mess on beautiful­ ly decorated tables. While supper was served to the cast, chairs were moved back and Sgt. Watts made a quick change-over from our pub-1 lie address system^ to the sound table in the projection booth and a period [ of dancing began. This afforded an i opportunity for the airmen and I airwomen to meet the cast and is: always one of the highlights of stage j show nights. j The London Citizens’ Committee a}*e to be congratulated for the splendid efforts they are making on behalf of the armed services in their district. They are not only making outstanding contributions to the morale-building program of the Air Force and Army, but in so doing are creating a warn! spot in the ^hearts of parents from coast to coast who are always kept appraised of thecae-- tivities presented for the entertain­ ment of their sons and daughters. Thanks a lot, London. * # * * This week Miss Jeckell sent our library a’ Christmas present in the form, of a subscription to the Read­ ers’ Digest for 1943.
