WHILE still a young man the tide of popular opinion turned against Him.
His friends ran away. One of them denied Him. He was turned over to His
enemies. He went through the mockery of a trial. He was nailed to a cross

AN AVID QUILTER Mrs. McKinley has completed two this year, She and Debbie hold a 'Colonial Lady'
quilt she is in the process of finishing for her eldest daughter Dianne, who is at school in Toronto.
Active in dubs
The home of Robert E.
McKinley MY. and his family is
a solid, comfortable two-storey
Stone house built in 1867 by
ancestors who left Ireland in
184 2 to escape the potato
famine.
After braving the tribulations
of a long sea voyage, these hardy
settlers stopped off at the Gaspe,
journeyed on to Galt and finally
settled on land, purchased from
the Canada Company in
Ooderich.
On this same land, a few
miles north of Zurich, the
Robert McKinleys, his parents,
two brothers and their families
reside in separate residences.
The first dwelling, a log
cabin, was torn down when the
present house was built, but
some far sighted pioneer planted
a small chestnut sapling on its
site which has grown into a 60
foot tree that spreads its shade
over a large part of the lawn of
the 100 year old stone house.
It is here that Audrey
McKinley keeps the home fires
burning while her husband is in
Ottawa every week attending to
the affairs of his constituents.
Running the household,
overseeing the activities of four
active children and attending her
duties in service clubs and
church organizations keeps her
well occupied.
"But, it's not so bad," she
states cheerfully. "Of course,
there are times when it would be
easier if Bob were here.
However, he phones nearly every
evening and gets home each
weekend, so really, things work
out quite well,"
Asked if there were any other
disadvantages, besides her
husband's absence, in being a
politician's wife, she answered,
"No, Bob loves his his work and
I'm happy to go along with
whatever he wants to do.'
"Are you actively involved
with politics yourself?" she was
queried.
"No, But when there is an
election the children and I take
on the back room jobs which
frees Bob to campaign and visit
the voters."
The children are Dianne, a
student at the Patricia Stevens
Career School in Toronto; and
Debbie and John, both enrolled
in Grade XII at Clinton
Secondary School, and Janet
and Brenda who attend the
Centennial Public School at
Brucefield.
The two oldest girls have
been active members of 4-H
clubs for several years and Janet
has just enrolled in this
organization.
The girls' interest stems from
their mother's enthusiasm for
4-H. Although she is not actively
involved in the work at present
she has conducted ten or twelve
clubs in the past and hopes to
get back at it when she has more
time.
This year she holds the
position of Matron of the Exeter
Chapter of the Eastern Star, as
well as being a group leader for
the U.C.W. at Goshen United
Church.
The M.P.'s wife sews many of
her own clothes as do her older
daughters. She loves to quilt and
has completed two beautiful
ones since January.
Mrs. McKinley follows the
local hockey games with interest
since son John is an avid player
with the Zurich Juniors.
John shares his. fathers keen
interest in horses and this spring
is training a thoroughbred,
Centennair, which he hopes to
turn into a jumper. He is also
kept lansy exercising one of his
father's harness horses, Armbro
Jaunty,
The family doesn't join Mr.
McKinley in Ottawa but Mrs,
McKinley tries to get down three
or four times a year and the
children go at least once while
parliament is pitting.
Speaking of 'Ottawa, Mrs.
McKinley recalled the highlight
of her husband's political' career
as being the first opening of
parliament she attended after
her husband's election to office.
"I was really thrilled about
it," she said. We were invited to
attend the Opening Ball at
Rideau Hall and were presented
to Governor General Vanier and:
his wife, I remember them .both
As being so warm and gracious."
The words 'warm and
gracious' describe Audrey
McKinley herself. She comes
through as a friendly, happy
woman, devoted to her husband
and family, yet willing to share
her time and talents with the
community in which she lives.
