MacLean pre siding. Th© meeting, which was well attended, was of a very high order. One feature of the gathering was the buffet supper which had been pro vided. This feature proved to be most enjoyable and was highly praised by those in attendance. It afforded an opportunity for the members and ad herents to enjoy a social chat and be come fetter acquainted with each other. X Another feature of the gathering was a deepening appreciation of the role the church is playing in the cor- poi*ate life of Wingham and commu nity. A just pride was felt in the Presbyterian Witness to Canadian life? and the writer of this short report believes that many present silently compared the present contribution with that of former years. When one has been active in church work for some years, on<f is apt to do some comparing with by-gone days. All in attendance were pleased to learn that the congregation is in a sound financial position and that the prospects for the coming year were good. The interest shown in the work of the church during the year ended was on a high level, each every organization playing its and adding to the success of whole. All allocations for the budget of the church were exceeded, from that of the congregation itself to those of the several missionary organiza tions. Special attention was called to the splendid growth of the church school. The call went out for more volunteers to engage in the work of the school to meet its growing de mands. The outlook for the future is most encouraging. It does a person good to be in attendance at the diet of wor ship on the Lord’s Day and see the large number of young people present. The church that can gather to itself its young people and inspire them to take an active part in its life, is not the church that is likely to close its doors. Of particular interest is the large attendance at the quarterly commu nion services. There is something more in these communon services than an individual same. It is at porate nature realized. Appreciation by the minister, Rev. Alex Nimmo, of that of Mr. Harold Victor Pym as organist and choir leader, and of the choir, was made known in words of warm praise. just and part the participation in the such- services, the cor- of the church is fully of the fine work done H.

Heads of the various committees reported for their departments and offered suggestions for improvement in decorating, as well as the packing and distribution of candy at the Christmas parade. The most important subject under discussion was the celebration of Wingham’s 75th anniversary, which occurs this year.

HAMILTON, OPTOMETRIST “A Complete Visual Analysi»” Religion was an important part of his home life and, his ambition always was to be a priest. He studied in Catholic schools, was a fine student of St. Viator College, Bourbonnais, Il linois, and when he was a freshman was good enough to make the de bating team. It was then he learned a major lesson which he has never forgotten—be natural. He went abroad to study at Bel gium’s University of Louvain. Sheen’s work was brilliant. He was the first American to win the prized Cardinal Mercier-Award, given once every ten years for the best philosophical trea tise. Bishop Sheen is prouder of that than any of his 11 other degrees. His next year was given to work in England. He became assistant to the pastor of St. Patrick’s, a poor multi-national parish in London’s Soho. He was popular, loved, respect ed and is still remembered. When he visits London, he preaches at St: Pat rick’s. He taught at St. Edmund’s College, London, and his reputation had grown so much that Oxford and Columbia wanted him to teach philosophy. But there were other plans. Nine months later he..was sent to Washington to teach at a Catholic university. In June, 1934, he was named Papal Chamberlain of the late Pontiff, Pope Pius XI, with the title of Very Rev. Monsignor. In October 1935, the Pope made him Domestic Prelate with the title of Right Rev. Monsignor.' He was the first preacher in a nation-wide Catholic Hour when it began on the NBC network in 1930. Book after book of his have become best-sellers. He was consecrated a Bishop June 11, 1951. There are few men who could carry his current work-load and survive. He gave up his radio pro gram in the fall of 1952 after 22 years, to spend the time on his TV program, “Life Is Worth Living". He also has his Sunday sermons at New York’s St. Patrick’s, his religious instruction and lectures. He supervises the work of the Society for the Propogation of the Faith with 129 diocesan directors, writes or edits all the society’s pro motion material, keeps in touch with the 100,000 missionaries, spends time with missionaries visiting New York, edits two magazines, writes two na tionally syndicated columns and is always at work on a new bobk. He has a staff of 30 helpers who work where he lives with two other priests. His day starts at 6.15 a.m. He plays a good game of tennis about once a week and neither drinks nor smokes. He lives frugally and gives the large income from his books to missions. The Bishop’s life is spent trying to point out the way of hap piness to his fellowmen.

But life insurance policyholders have a special stake in this work. You see, certain important medical research projects are supported wholly or in part by funds from all the life insurance companies in Canada with their millions of policyholders. As a result, skilled scientists in many Canadian medical research centres can carry on their task of attacking some of man kind’s deadliest enemies. Their names: cancer, heart ailments, tuberculosis and poliomyelitis. Other vital studies are sup ported in a similar way. These focus on processes of ageing, cellular growth, dental hygiene, pregnancy complica tions, thyroid hormones, blood clotting and asthma, to mention but a few. Will all these efforts help you and your family to live longer, healthier lives? Yes! Thanks chiefly to the advance of modern medicine, babies born today can expect to live about 20 years longer than those of 50 years ago. Many dread diseases have been banished or controlled. Ahead lies further progress that will surely benefit you and yours. And, if you are a life insur ance policyholder, you also have the satisfaction of know ing you have participated in this program designed to bring the. blessings of good health to all I AT YOUR SERVICE!
