Davey legki like an East Indian baby, His background is really West Indian and Anglo-Saxon. He has straight silky hair with a tiny bit of curl at the back, beautiful big dark eyes and light tan skin. He is healthy, active and quite strong. He loves to have his legs free so he can kick and he's fascinated by his own hands, which he finds more interesting than any toy. You can see his eyes are fixed on his hand more than on the camera. Davey is easy to look after because he's a good eater and sleeps right through the night. He likes to be cuddled and he loves attention, but doesn't demand it. This baby will be a fine son for a couple wanting to share as many milestones as possible with their little boy. To inquire about adopting Davey please write to Today's Child, Department of Social and Family Services, Parlia- ment Buildings, Toronto 182.

David Kruecheberg's miss- ion is to reach these men for Christ, and the basic tool of his work is the Bible Society's Today's English Version New Testament. 'I wouldn't place any other translation', he says 'this has meant so much to me. I never used to read the New Testament until I got "Good News". Since then I have read it all the time. It's the greatest. The guys think so, too, and really read, if. I think it is es- pecially beautiful when they come and ask me for a copy, which they do.'

Withdrawal of government financial support of Canadian investment in southern Africa is demanded in a resolution to come before the 24th general council of The United Church of Canada meeting here Jan. 25-Feb. 2. In a series of resolutions appended to a sweeping review of conditions in Africa, South America, the Middle East and other world trouble spots, the committee on international affairs is sharply critical of South Africa's policy of apartheid — recial segregation — and Portugal's colonial policy in its African territories, The committee asks the general council to urge the Canadian government, among other things, to abrogate Commonwealth preferences extended to South Africa and to recommend no further expenditure of public funds to promote trade with, or investment in, South Africa. This would include Canadian participation in the Cobra-Bossa dam project in Mozambique. Other resolutions deal with the current conflict in the Middle East, world development and human rights. The international affairs committee is composed of 32 clergymen and prominent laymen and lay women. It was established by the general council, highest legislative body of the United Church, in 1946 and the report to be submitted at the forthcoming meeting will be its 13th. The general council usually meets every two years but the 24th meeting was delayed to Now, some folks gripe if the sermon's short; and some folks gripe if it's long. Some complain of a brand-new hymn, and some of a time-worn song. And some don't like announcements made, and some want more of them. And some folks like the preacher fine, and some quit "cause of him". Some laymen must apologize for all the parson's wrongs, while he is salving ancient hurts whose blame to layment belongs. Some folks anger at money-talk and some want tithers only. Some complain of every meeting and some say they are lonely. Some folks say the church is dead, some say it's too political, Some say the church is pietistic, some say it's hypocritical. Some people say church folks are nosy, others say the church is cold. Some say buildings must be new, others want just the old. Some people like informal ways, some like to worship formally. Some want the preacher just to visit, others say don't come if things go normally. Some folks will fan themselves just while others shudder. Some want the parson for a figurehead, while others want a rudder. One thing is absolutely sure on earth, beneath each dome and steeple: no matter what the church Will do, it can't please all the people. For some folks never will be changed, not even Hell would budge 'em: but we can have compassion knowing that only God can judge 'etre ANNUAL MEETING of the plot owners of BAIRD'S CEMETERY will be held on January 20, 1971 at 2:00 p.m. in the 1.0.0.F. Hall, Brucefield W. Webster Cemetery Board Chairman coincide with that of the general synod of the Anglican Church of Canada. The two bodies will meet separately in adjoining hotels here. There will be two joint sessions — one to consider a report on church union, the other to study a new hymn book proposed for common use, The general council must elect a new moderator to succeed Dr. Robert Baird McClure, the noted medical missionary who served in China, India and the Middle East for 43 years. Now 70, Dr. McClure plans to spend his retirement in Southeast Asia posts treating victims of leprosy. The election will be one of the first orders of business when formal sessions open Jan. 26. Delegates to general council are known as commissioners and about 400, half laity, half clergy, are expected to attend. Major decisions concerning the life and organization of the church will be made at the meeting and a hard look will be taken at the relationship of the church to human problems at home and abroad.. Active participation by all commissioners will be encouraged through the establishment of what has been termed "task forces on concerns" rather than holding full plenary sessions. Also, instead of having a devotional speaker as in past meetings, there will be a variety of early-morning worship, two joint communion services with the Anglican Church and a joint service of celebration and thanksgiving Sunday evening, Jan. 31. Among resolutions on So all that's left for us to do is witness to God's love—and hope if we get close to Heaven, the Church gives us a shove. domestic matters scheduled to come before the general council is one from the Bay of Quinte conference deploring what it calls the domination by "the producers of beverage alcohol" of telecasting of sports events, It asks the council to appeal for federal legislation banning radio and television advertising by "liquor as well as tobacco interests." The conference also urges: "That the air time involved be purchased by the government of Canada and used for the promotion of national and international development and service programs, the needs of Canada's native people etc." The low scale of pensions paid to retired United Church ministers is noted in a review to be put before the council by the church department of pensions. It reports that in 1968, last full year for which figures are available, the average annual pension paid was $2,518. The Canada Pension Plan payment would be in addition to this. The department proposes that the retirement age, now 68, be reduced to 67 as of June 30, 1971, and to 65 by June 30, 1973. It recommends increases to six per cent from five in employee contributions to permit higher pension benefits but no increase in the present 81/2 per cent contribution by individual congregations. , On the last point, the department's review says: "There are problems in collecting the present 81/2 per cent employer's contribution, particularly from smaller pastoral charges." Thus we will do our best to serve, till from this earth we're sundered, knowing we have won life's prize if we just bat 500!
