The Rev. and Mirs. John Gra
ham were most dedicated Work
ers dn .the Bayfield, Varna and
Middleton parish from 1939 te
1945 and Mrs, Graham served
with distinction as1 president of
■the Deanery of Huron and was
'a pillar of strength to1 the WA’s
of their three point parish.
Mrs. Graham’s talk was most
well received as she covered
this era. Her reminiscences
evoked many memories among
those present.
“Those were the depression
years,” Mrs. Graham stated,
“and money was scarce, but
kindness and godliness were
often freely expressed. .
; “My husband and I felt privi
leged to serve in this corner of
God’s vineyard.
“A census is being taken in
Canada 'and my message to you
all is, ‘Stand up and be counted
for Canada and for God.’’
“To the WA members I
would say there is a real chal
lenge, in our „new name, .‘The,..
Anglican ’, Church Women of.
Canada.’
“I leave you with the best of
all wishes as expressed by Sit.,
Paul, ‘The grace of the Lord
Jesus Christ and the love. of
God and the communion of the
Holy Ghost, he with' you all,
Amen.”
‘ Mrs. Fre’d Middleton moved a
volte of thanks to all who had
contributed ,to the excellent .
program.
Two members of the WA who
have removed to towns were
presented with housewarming
gifts, Mrs. Arnold Miller of
Goderich' 'and Mrs. John Grigg
.of Clinton.- Mrs. Ray Wise read
the address., and) Mrs. Cole and
Mrs. John Smith presented the
gifts. It was an auspicious time
to honour these dedicated mem
bers, whom we hope will con
tinue their association.
The Rev. E. J. B. Harrison
pronounced the benediction.
Tea was served in the Sunday
School room. The lace covered
table was centred by a beauti
ful arrangement of apricot tea
roses and buff chasta ’mums
and lighted burnt orange can
dles.
The 75th anniversary cake
was cut 'by Mrs. Fred Middle
ton and Mr. Harrison.
Mrs. William Wise, the senior

were- expressed by Mte. J. B.
Higgins of Bayfield, Mirs. Gord
on Rathwell of Clinton and

delightful birthday party and it
augurs well for the next mile
