The Frenchman who is accompanying him on the trip plans to go to France^ completing a trip around the world. A gigantic sale of the former’King Farouk’s effects is scheduled for the near future in Egypt and the family at "home has a strong suspicion that Charlie, who will probably be some­ where in that neighborhood, will be unable to resist the temptation to at­ tend such an interesting event.

The meeting opened with prayer by Rev, Parker, The minutes of the pre­ vious meeting were read and adopted by Mrs. Dorothy Templeman and Miss Elsie Howden, The roll call was then taken with each member introducing herself, Reports were heard frpm the various committees. It was moved by Mrs. Templeman that the secretary order tables to' match the chair which were purchas­ ed last year. The president, Mr§. Shir­ ley Boucher, welcomed the new mem­ bers to the Guild and hoped to ex­ pect more in the near future. The meeting closed with prayer by Rev. Parker after which the members heard their Guild meeting which had been recorded unknown to all. This proved quite startling and amusing. The members then proceeded to the rectory for lunch, served by the host­ esses, Mrs, Jean Elliott and Miss Flo­ rence Harris. The February meeting will be held in the basement of the church with the showing of a film, “Power With­ in". Anyone is welcome to attend. Christmas, Charlie spent the Christ­ mas holidays With his Sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. J, H. E. Webb, who have lived in Singapore for several years, After Christmas, in company with a young Frenchman he met on the boat going across the Pacific, he started off with a pack on his back on a trip up the Malayan Penninsula. Travel­ ling mostly on foot, but using other means of transportation as well, the two travellers made their way through the jungle, arriving eventually in Cal­ cutta, where they were staying when Charlie’s last letter to the family ar­ rived. He reports that he is enthralled with the grandeur and beauty of the country on the trip from Singapore to Calcutta, but said that there is still a certain amount of trouble with the guerillas in that part of the world. to show up at night The third and final question was, “How do you think the costs should be divided." Members were of the opinion that stop signs could be paid for, in part at least, from fines of persons who dp not stop, Other pro­ tective devices should be paid by the Federal Government because in that way everyone would be paying for something for which everyone uses. Lunch was served following the dis­ cussion and a social time was enjoyed. Winners By Roe Farms Service Dept. News of Neighbours In Distant Places S INCHES PER CHICK AFTER 6 WEEKS. 1 3 6 1 E.

Flying from Malton with his bro­ ther, Gordon Hammerton, of Wallace­ burg, Ian stayed for a couple of days at Mrs. Hammerton’s home in Wal­ lington, near Croydon, Surrey. From there he went to Lanelly, South Wales where he is visiting with his sister and brother-in-law, Mr. and Mrs. R. Bennett. The trip home is Gordon’s first in twenty-six years, while Ian has not been home since he first came to Canada, six years ago. Ian says in his letter that the spring flowers are out in England, and that the countryside is beautiful. They had about two weeks of winter altogether, with* a fair amount of snow, but spring seems to have come already. In spite of temperatures of between 50 and 60, however, Ian reports that the dampness makes him feel cold, after the dry weather of Canada. Evening Guild Meets At Radio Station The January meeting of St. Paul’s Evening Guild was held in the studios of radio station CKNX. After a very interesting and enjoyable- tour of the station, conducted by Mr. John Cruickshank, Mrs. Dorothy Temple- The members of the Westfield For­ um met on Monday evening of last week at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Howard Campbell. The topic for dis­ cussion was “Stop, Look and Listen." The first question was “How many unprotected level crossing are there within 10 miles of where you are meeting tonight?" The groups agreed there were seven unprotected cross­ ings within ten miles. “Keeping in mind that the cost of complete protection by a subway or overhead bridge is roughly 25 times the cost of partial protection by auto­ matic devices, such as bells, flashing lights or short arm gates, what kind of protection would you recommend for the level crossings in your area?" was the second .. question. The group decided that flashing lights and wig-wags are a fine protection, an­ other suggestion would be to put stop signs at all level crossings with a heavy fine to all motorists who fail to stop. The sign should be large and could be painted with luminous paint PRETTY GOOD FLOCK J WELL,ITS A CINCH THEY'RE EH, DOC 7 SOME CHICKS NOT CHIRPING WITH TH0U6H, KEEP CHIRPIN67 JOY, JACK.THEY LOOK - THEIR HEADS OFF.WEAKTO ME.
