Two nights were spent with the latter's cousin, Mrs. Gordon Johns, Woodham, and the boys were given tours of area farms and spent part of a day attending classes at SHDHS, The boys speak French in their home communities of Noelville and Monet- ville and attend bilingual schools. In the back are Rejean chartrand, Mr. Sleaver and Michael Mayer. Seated are Dennis Coulombe, Mrs. M. J. Anderson, 93-year-old grandmother of Mr. Sleaver who resides with Mr. and Mrs. Johns, and Mrs. Gordon Johns.

Mr. Sleaver, a former school principal, started the first patrol in 1954 in Northern Ontario and is employed by the Ontario government. He and the boys' parents shared the cost of the 1,500-mile trip. T-A photo Infant baptised Clandeboye cleric moved COODGtvei.
