He pointed out that people from many communions were present at the event, but that 100 years ago even people from other Prot- estant faiths would have been met with glassy stares had they at- tended the service in the church. GREAT MAN The Protestant clergyman then delved into the relationship be- tween Protestant and Roman Catholic peoples, noting it was a great day that persons of these McKinley — Continued from front page "This Company's initial in- formation was that the survey would take at least six months, but I have assured them that this is not the case and asked them to wait, if possible, at least another month before making de- finite plans," the Zurich area man stated. He added that it would be of definite value to the area to have the province take over the com- plete administration and selling or leasing of buildings to whom- ever would be interested because the federal government feel the province would be much more flexible in this type of operation as they would be able to lease on long-term basis.

Accidents — Continued from front page Ivey, London, and Douglas John Shirray, Hensall. The two cars collided on a curve as they met each other. Police report the street was only wide enough to facilitate one car, due to a buildup of snow. The final crash of the week took place on Sunday at 4:30 p.m. involving a car driven by Edna Victorine Ducharme, Lon- don. She had been eastbound on Highway 84 in the Zurich area when she attempted to pass an- other vehicle driven by Jeffrey Dietrich, RR 3 Zurich. However, her car fish-tailed as she pulled out to pass and she hit a crusted snowbank on the north side of the road. Damage to the car was listed at $300 and the London woman sustained neck and shoulder injuries. She received treatment in South Huron Hospital. various faiths could come to- gether and respect each other due to the fact most people now carry fewer prejudices. "We're coming nearer to the point where we can speak with one voice," he enthused. He indicated that the person who had a great deal to do with this example of brotherhood was the late Pope John XXIII, whom he referred to as "one of the greatest men we ever had". Rev. Hatton referred to Pope John as the greatest Pope the Protestant church ever had as he brought a new significance to inter-faith. "He knew what God wanted and look what he did," Rev. Hatton exclaimed in awe. Concluding his address with a challenge that the men present tackle the challenges of brother- hood with sincerity and motiva- tion, Rev. Hatton said they should seek to challenge people to re- fuse to be part of the problem, but rather part of the solution. He was introduced by R. E. Pooley and thanked by Larry Snider. AOTS president Iry Armstrong chaired the meeting and Len Mc- Knight introduced the head table guests, which included visiting area clergy, club executives and Reeve Derry Boyle.

Students will be bringing home a letter from Mr. Palmer along with their reports that will out- line the program. * * * * As I promised last week—an opinion. The question I asked the students was this; What do you think of the idea of having a Centennial Day at the school, during which staff and students could wear Cen- tennial costumes? The following are the students' opinions. Kathryn Hall, 9E—"I think it's a very good idea. It should be more than one day, perhaps two. The only thing is that while most kids would do it, a lot of kids wouldn't. I, myself, would do it. Costumes should be optional be- cause all the kids maybe couldn't get a hold of clothes. I think it would be a great idea!" Bob Read, 9F—"That would be all right, if they had costumes, but if some didn't, then there should be some source of cos- tumes. Costumes should be op- tional. If I had one I'd wear it. If you don't have a costume, just come in normal attire. It would be nicer this way. Costumes should be optional,' because a lot of people wouldn't know where to get them." Joanne Whilsmith, 10D—"I think it's great, really. I don't know whether everybody will par- ticipate. It would be a lot of fun. Costumes should be optional— this would work out better. The Student Council should give prizes for the best costume." Barry Southcott, 10E—"Yes, I think it's a pretty good idea. It is Centennial year. The school should do something. I think it's a good idea, Costumes should be optional. No one should be made to do it, if they don't want to." Joyce Benson, 11E—"I think it's a very good idea. Quite a few kids have costumes and it would be a good chance to show them off, and after all, it is Centennial year. I'm in favour of it. Cos- tumes should be optional because not everyone would want to wear one. It would spoil the fun if we had to do it." Jim Hoffman, 11E—"I think it's a good idea. I'd go for that. Costumes should be optional be- cause some students might not have costumes and would feel left out." Anna Marie Dietrich, 12C—"I think it would be great but just for one day. If the response is good, then maybe we could have it again. Costumes should be optional because some kids wouldn't do it anyway." George Lee, 12D—"Well, I think it would be okay. Everybody should dress up, but I'd like to see a prize given, like money or school supplies, This w ould supply more of an incentive. For people who have old clothes, it would be okay. As long as it's well done, with taste, this type of thing would be all right. I think costumes should be op- tional." Marie Powe, 13C—"I think it's a good idea for some, but maybe all might not participate in it. Then there would be kind of a separation. The wearing of costumes should be optional." Jim Huxtable, 13B—"I don't really know. I'd be in favour of it, yes. Some would go all out. I doubt if you'd find very many, though. I don't think there would be that many in favour, when it came down to the actual wearing of the costumes. I think cos- tumes should be optional." Bye for now!
