Pierce, who will soon be returning to Senegal, Africa. He told of his travels in Canada beforehe became a Christian and how God lead him, and later his family into a new life. When he was asked to serve in Senegal he Made many excuses but finally agreed and then things began to happen, Senegal is a small country and at present is a spiritual oasis, surrounded by countries where Christian activities are restricted. Mr. & Mrs. Pierce spent a fruitful term in charge of a school for the children of missionaries and diplomats. At present they are working with the Mennonite church in a home for teen-age boys who have had problems and who are being prepared to go back into society better equipped to deal with life. Those in attendance were impressed with the thought that there are many types of missionary work to be done and the young people present were challenged to seek God's will for their lives. In the morning service, Rev. Elvin D. Thornton announced that he has resigned the pastorate at Lucan as of August 12th, because of an appointment by the World Missions Depart- ment to Kingston, Jamaica.

Mr. & Mrs. Peter Janzen, Mary Need space for seniors Members of county council learned on Friday that they will soon have to start thinking about a possible extension to facilities at Huronview Home for the Aged. Both J. L. McCutcheon, chairman of the Huronview Board of Management, and C. A. Archibald, Huronview ad- ministrator, told the meeting that the waiting list for bed care is steadily growing. They told the members there was no increased pressure in other service areas at Huronview but that more space for bed care residents was a growing need. "If this trend continues, it appears consideration will have to be given to an addition, or a new building elsewhere to provide accommodation for the large number of applicants requiring more extensive nursing care," noted Mr, McCutcheon. "There is no doubt," he told the meeting, "this type of patient can be cared for much more economically in our type of ac- commodation rather than in hospital where the rates range from a minimum of ap- proximately $40 per day." "Our bed care section at the present time is operating at a maximum of $14 per resident day." In other Huronview matters council passed a resolution, which will be sent to all the counties and regions of Ontario, the Ontario Association of Homes for the Aged, Murray Gaunt and Jack Riddell, calling for petitioning of the minister of community and social services, Rene Brunelle to allow any ex- cess income of extended care resident to be applied against any arrears of maintenance. In connection with this request the board of management noted that at the present time, a number of extended care residents receive monthly in- come in excess of their comfort allowance of $35 and the cost of maintenance of $4,00 per day, By MRS.
