WESTFIELD Mission, Rand Meets The Mission Band met in the church school room on Sunday afternoon The call to worship was "This is the day which the Lord hath made, we will rejoice and be glad in it”. The mem ber’s purpose was repeated in uni son. Scripture lesson was read by Donald McDowell and prayer by Mrs, Howard Campbell, Readings were giv en by_ Shirley Snell and Garth Wal den, Mrs. told was Mrs. The study book was taken by Hugh Blair and the story was by Mrs. Campbell. The roll call answered by each one present. Blair closed the meeting with prayer. Farm Forum The Farm Forum met oh Monday evening at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Buchanan. The topic for the night was farm policy in relation to production, In view of the fact that a world food bank does not appear likely in the near future, the question was what kind of marketing and produc tion policy would appear to be the best for the Canadian farmers. For example, should Canada adopt any of the other five plans suggested in the guide or a combination of these plans, or what other alternative? The Forum believed that the No. 1 example of price supports, based on 100% parity along with a two price system, would be the best suggestion. It was felt by the members of the Forum that they would like especially to see 100% parity on the salaries of members of parliament. The manu facturers are protected by tariff that farmers are forced to help to pay, it was felt, and therefore the farmers should be protected by price supports. The social activities were in charge of Lloyd McDowell and Cecil de Haas. The meeting next week will be held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Harvey McDowell.

Following the Third Collect the girls formed a semi-circle at the chancel steps and repeated the aims of their organization. After the promise "to try hard to be loyal to God and the Church, to be helpful to others and to say the member’s prayer,” each girl was enrolled by the rector, the Rev. H. L. Parker. In recognition of their faithful work in passing their tests, six of the mem bers received their armbands while five others received their armbands and first stripe.
