The Canadian Bible Society reports that the 1972 figures indicate an unpreceden- ted circulation in Canada and.,-, overseas t, ' In .the SOety • distributed 108,000" BiOes and more than 300,000 copies of the New Testament in addition to more than two and a half million copies of smaller scrip- ture portions. Included in those figures are 33,000 Bibles or Testaments in 76 languages other than English or French. The Bible Society each year furnishes free scriptures for the blind. More than 7,000 units in Braille or on cassettes or tape were given to the blind last year. A highlight of the 1972 report was the announcement that the Canadian Bible Society forwar- ded $860,000 - or more than $16,500 per week - for the tran- slation, printing, and distribution of the Bible over- seas. Much of this was used to furnish scriptures to those who are newly-literate. According to Dr. Kenneth MacMillan, general secretary, the Society is aiming to in- crease its support of world distribution of the Bible. "The Bible still on best seller list hundreds of thousands who will join the ranks of the newly- literate depend upon their Canadian friends of all chur- ches for copies of the Bible," he -points out. the' Bible -societies, of the, vv, 6 r I 4. have made ; •:.$14eard le. progress in the translation of * the scriptures. Today 255 of the world's language groups have the complete Bible in their own tongue. People speaking these languages make up 90 per cent of the world's population. The Canadian Bible Society is an inter-faith agency that receives the support of people of all denominations. "You might say that it is the best possible practical expression of Christian unity," says the Bible Society's general secretary. A cordial invitation is exten- ded to Clinton and community to attend a most worthwhile and enjoyable evening in On- tario St. Church on April 8th at 7;30 p.m. for the joint spring Thankoffering of the Ontario St. and Wesley-Willis United Church Women.

It is a children's book, but makes good adult reading, The title is "Ningiynk's Igloo World" and traces an Eskimo girlg search for her real mother. As a historical sketch it depicts the Eskimo's daily and seasonal life, which includes legends and pagan rites, The book she is presently working on, is more harsh and realistic. It is the story of a crippled Eskimo youth and is a book for older boys. She also plans a future book of Eskimo legends, many of which have never been recorded, She has written for several magazines, including the "Family-Herald". Special music will be by the "Maranatha's "a very talented group of young people. This promises to be an evening for the whole family to enjoy. ahead with raising money for the purchase of the vehicle as the main project of the year.

Business and Professional Directory The Huronview Ladies' Auxiliary met in the Craft Room at Huronview on March 26, The president, Mrs. Colclough, presiding and after welcoming the members after the winter recess opened the meeting with the Lord's Prayer repeated in unison. Mrs. McGregor, supervisor of the Craft Room introduced Mr. Rowe, the Assistant Ad- ministrator of Huronview, to the members. Mr. Rowe said he had several projects in mind for the ladies to work on. The most urgent project at the moment was the purchase of a van type vehicle suitable for transpor- ting wheel chair residents and others to Goderich for treat, merit and therapy rather than in private cars which is the practice at present. After a lengthy discussion, the mem- bers felt that a project of this size couldn't be undertaken by the Auxiliary alone and it was decided to defer any decision until next month, In the mean- time the members were to con- tact all service clubs, fraternal organizations and Women's In- stitutes in their communities, explaining the handicaps and Members of Clinton Christian Reform Church for- med a choir for the Sunday evening song service. Aire Van Der Bride led the service and the devotional period. The Auxiliary met in the craft room on Monday after- noon and as well as assisting with the quilting discussed new projects and made plans for the coming year. One of the projects, the annual Blossom Tea and sale of home baking and crafts will be held at the Home on Wednesday, May 2 from 2-4 o'clock. Assistant Administrator Ed Rowe attended the meeting and outlined some of the needs of the home. The urgent need at the present time is a vehicle such. as, a minibus, that wonlAr, aecbmmodate. wheelchairs. Auxiliarydecided tti W hat's new at Huronview? minimmiesmammil Local obituaries
