It was overcast so this accounts for the length of time. They came 80 miles in a head wind. Winners of the race were, Mert Culbert, Clarence Hardy, and George Noyes. There will be a very interesting race in a couple of weeks as pigeons will fly all the way-from St. Jerome. That's some 400 miles away. What makes this race interesting is the fact that some of the bird owners have got their feathers a bit ruffled and are going to go all out to knock these last winners right out of their perches. Holy Trinity Anglican Lucan Sunday the flowers in the church were in memory of Mrs. Emily Tomes. At the service of morning prayer Rev. R.A, Carson preached on the family, He said there are a great many pressures on the family today. One of the things that affects the family is the earlier age at which people marry and the resulting early birth of children. Another factor affecting the family is the increased number of divorced people. Then too, we are developing "dormitory" towns. People sleep one place, but they work, eat, and entertain somewhere else. This affects the family and the Church, Mr. Carson said the Church tries to meet the changing situation by marriage counselling, improved adult education and up-to-date children's education. But the real burden of the family falls on the mother who is responsible for the early training of the child. Mr. Carson con- cluded by saying we need a return to the family pew, father, mother and children worshipping together every Sunday. The Junior Choir medals were awarded to Lisa MacKenzie and John Henderson for attendance and behavior during April.

A delegation of parents of Lord Dorchester Secondary School students appeared at the Board's meeting and presented a brief expressing concern about the credit system now used in the school, They are accompanied by several students. Spokesmen for the delegation, Hans Kanter and Anne Crisp, said that many parents and students feel frustrated when they try to fulfill their respon- sibilities for selecting subjects, particularly when there are in- sufficient numbers of students 'choosing some subjects. When this happens, the school is unable to form classes and present the subjects. The delegation asked that the board establish an avenue of communication which would permit parents and students to consult regularly with board members. They also asked that public meetings be held to assist trustees through small group discussion with parents, to form board policies. After meeting in ,committee, the board decided to hold a public meeting in the Dorchester area May 29. In other business, the board granted permission to a group of secondary school students to use facilities at Lambeth schools this summer. The students, Anne Carroll, Maureen Duffield, Louise Ennis and Cindy Mann, will take part in a co-operative ministry of education program entitled "Students participating in community education." They plan to offer an educational and recreational program for children who are too young to take part in other established eommumty programs; By SID PALEY One week done one more to go, sure be glad when its all over, Toronto is some place, eh, Incidentally there will be no Comments next week.
