The marriage of Nancy Mary
Hartman and Leonard John
Stroeder which took place on
Saturday, January 23, was a real
family event, Brothers and
sisters of the bridal couple
formed the bridal party and the
bridegroom's cousin, Rev,
Edward Hinsperger of Christ the
King Cathedral, Hamilton,
officiated at their marriage at St.
Louis RC Church, Allen Street
East, Waterloo,
The bride was given in
marriage by her uncle and
godfather, Joseph C. Dietrich of
Waterloo. Her godmother, Mrs.
Dietrich, made her wedding
gown and baked the wedding
cake s The bride is a daughter of
the late Mr. and Mrs. Ralph
Hartman and step-daughter of,
Mrs. Annie Hartman of RR 3,
Clinton. The bridegroom is a son
of Mr. and Mrs. Simon Stroeder,
RR 3, Mildrnay.
Mrs. Winston Worsley, was
matron of honour for her sister
and another sister, Mrs. Richard
Haines, was bridesmaid. Both are
BY C. J. HARRIS
One of the incidental benefits
of our centennial is a
widespread, continuing interest
in Canada's history. There
probably has been more
historical research, writing and
publishing in the past decade
than in the preceding five,
A project just announced by
the Ontario government is
particularly worthy of attention.
Fittingly, since it deals with the
early French period, it was
announced in Montreal by James
Auld, Ontario's Minister of
Public Records and Archives,
and Minister of Tourism and
Information. The project is
named the Sainte-Marie Prize in
History after the 17th century
Jesuit community, first
European settlement in Canada's
interior, that has been exactly
reconstructed by the Ontario
government on its site near
Midland, Ontario.
"It is a truth that purely
political or economic unions
seldom are lasting," Mr. Auld
said at an early December
meeting of government officials
of Quebec and Ontario. "The
human animal requires
something more. Call it a
community of interest, or a
sense of common heritage, or a
sense of shared history, or
merely 'roots.' We need also a
sense of connection to events as
A
of Kitchener. Helen Hartman of
RR. 3, Clinton was flower girl for
her sister.
Sylvester Stroeder, Kitchener,
and Gerald Stroeder, RR 3,
Clifford were attendants for
their brother. Ushers were
Richard Stroeder, RR 3,
Mildmay, the bridegroom's
brother; Peter McInnis,
Kitchener, the bridegroom's
brother-in-law; Louis Hartman,
RR 3, Clinton, the bride's
brother and Richrd Haines,
Kitchener, a brother-in-law of
the bride.
Ring bearer was Paul
Hartman, RR 3, Clinton, a
brother of the bride. Paul
Stroeder, RR 3, Mildmay, the
bridegroom's brother, and Philip
Dietrich, Waterloo, the bride's
cousin, served the nuptial mass.
A reception followed at the
Knights of Columbus Hall,

well as to each other. Put
another way, we need a sense of
family, a sense of descendancy
from history, a sense of sharing a
heritage.
"Without it certainly we
cannot survive as a nation, but at
best as only partners to a
marriage of convenience.
Understanding our history with
so me objec tivity, seeing
Canadians within the context of
events will allow us the
perspective and freedom in
which mutual respect can
flourish ...
"A nation Called Canada was
merely a dream in the mind of
Champlain when Jesuit priests
and hardy French pioneers
travelled the long and dangerous
route into the heart of
present-day Ontario. There they
founded a thriving Norman
community that survived a
decade of almost daily danger
and hardship. Ontario traces its
beginnings to this community, a
community of gallant
Frenchmen. The, time was 1639.
"SaintesMarie was destroyed
ten years later, a co-incidental
victim of a bitter Indian trade
war. After two decades of
historical and archeological
research, the community stands
again as it did three centuries
ago. Sainte-Marie's ancient
purpose survives, too. It was
built as a model of fraternity, It
was built to teach. It was built
to contribute to the
establishment of a nation.
Today, we recognize these same
purposes and Sainte-Marie stands
as a physical point of contact for
English and French and their
mutual heritage!"
The Prize, including an award
of $1,649.00 and a publishing
program, will be given annually
on the advice of an international
jury for original historical
research and interpretation of
17th century Canada and the
international environment which
influenced developments here in
that tentury. Subject matter
could embrace the Roman
Catholic Church, polities in
Europe and North America, the
fur trade, ecology, Indian
studies, relationships between
colonies or individuals. Deadline
for the first submissions is
December 13,19'
The Sainte-Marie Prize cari be
art important, Worthwhile
project. It is One that deserves
widespread support and
publicity.

"THE BIBLE
TODAY"
Plans ate now being final-
ized, for the publication early
in 1971 of the New Testament
in Popular French. tt will ap-
pear under the title "Bonnes
Nouv ell e s Anjourd hut"
("Good News Today"), The
aim of the translation, in corn,
mon with other popular vet-
soins is to teeth the widest
possible public, without ceas-
ing to appeal to the more
intellectual elements in the
community. The Fr ench
term used to describe the 'lev-
el of translation is "Francois
Courant" (Current French)..
This is preferred to "Peptdar
French" or "Simplified
French"; the intention is to
employ the language spoken
today over radio and televis-
ion and tiled in the press-
Prerich which Is natural,
clear anti correct, but without
archaic forins and specialized
expressions.
Dare has been taken so to
translate the New Testament
that when it is read out louts,
the meaning will continue to
be unambiguous. Thus a. Cap-

THE EDWARDIANS, by J, B.
Priestley.
J. B. Priestley, with his usual
charm and perception has
written of the period in England
from the accession of Edward
VII in 1901 to the outbreak of
the first World War. He covers
the social, political and artistic
viewpoints of the era - from
politics to the press, from
authors to painters, from gaiety
of fancy-dress balls to the
Titanic tragedy.
SEXUAL POLITICS, by Kate
Millett.
Radical feminist and Women's
Lib. leader argues that the
relationship between the sexes is
and always has been a political
one - a continuing power
struggle in which women are
sometimes idolized, other times
patronized, always exploited.
ESPECIALLY MAINE, by
Henry Bestion.
Observations of earth, sea and
sky from Cape Cod to the St.
Lawrence, most of them written
before ecology became a
household word. Henry
Bestion's love of nature and of
Maine are most delightfully
presented in these selections
edited by Elizabeth Coatsworth,
noted writer of children's books
and herself a resident of, and in
love with, Maine.
THE AMERICANS, by David
Frost.
Well-known as a TV
interviewer in the United States,
David Frost, an Englishman
whose first claim to fame was as
the star of "That Was the Week
that Was" presents interviews
and impressions of American
"greats and near-greats."
WARTIME JOURNALS OF
CHARLES A. LINDBERGH.
The years between 1938 and
1945 were cataclysmic for one
of the famous men of our
century. In that period, he
studied European aviation,
sought to alert leaders to the
military imbalance and the lack
of preparation among the
Western nations and made a
dedicated effort to keep the
United States out of a war that
he believed seriously threatened
to destroy Western civilization.
WILDLIFE CRISIS, by HRH
Prince Philip and James Fisher.
Prince Philip's concern for
Wildlife conservation grew from
his interest in bird witching, He
illustrates his account with his
own photographs, superb in
quality. James Fisher
contributes a history of the
conservation movement around
the world, aided by the approval
and assistance of the World
Wildlife Fund and the
International Union for the
Conservation of Nature and
Natural Resources. The book is a
plea for preservation of some of
the world's most beautiful
creatures, many almost extinct,
many doomed unless man acts
and quickly.
LAUGH BABY LAUGH, by
Ann Henry.
Canadian Ann Henry
struggled to raise three children
by being at various times a circus,
performer, an actress, a waitress
and the owner of a chicken
farm. The bleak atmosphere of
Winnipeg in the 1930's and '40's
is lightened by the author's
gaiety and enthusiasm.
THE UNDERWATER BOOK,
ed. by Kendall McDonald.
The divers themselves,
members of the British
Sub-Aqua Club, write of their
explorations in underwater
fields. The thrills of their work
are coupled with a warning of
what pollution can do to the sea.
HRH Prince Philip contributes a
