The following amusing inci

Public School children are being
taught to care for their tempor
ary quarters. One day recently
an officer of a ladies organiza
tion of the Anglican Church had
occasion to visit the Parish Hall.
Going home she started to take a
short cut across the lawn when
she heard a child soream, “You’ll
get the strap!” Turning to as
certain what child was in trouble
she found she herself was the
culprit, for daring to put a foot
on the church grass. Needless to
say she retreated and took the
long way home by the pavement.

address
the W.A. for the corsage which
had -been presented her at the
door, saying it was the first cor
sage she ever had given her.
The material for her address
was taken from letters she had
written her mother 20 years ago
when she went as a bride to a
very remote post in northeast
Saskatchewan and lived in a
barn-like shack with no -con
veniences. She told of waking in
the morning to find snow on the
window sills, frost on the bed
and food frozen, and of hazard
ous trips from post to post in
make-shift conveyances and of go
ing through water up to the
buggy seat. Their mission was
65 miles from the nearest doctoi’
or dentist.
Fortunately they had a Red
Cross nurse who helped out
wonderfully. As Mrs. Jacolyn re
lated her experience it was hard
for her listeners to realize that
Canada still has people who live
the lives of the early pioneers.
