Autumn, the blazing climax of the year, with its brilliant display of color brings with it more than smoky hills and crim- son forests to enrich the sou1.1 Each year there are the Sectional •Meetings of the Maitland Pres- byterial Society held this fall in' Whitechurch and Brussels. Guest speaker at both gatherings was the widely experienced, and en- thusiastic Mrs. Ronald Rice, re- cently returned from China where she and her husband have been missionaries for thirty-five years serving in Peking, Korea, Japan, Canton, and Taiwan. Her topic was,"Where is your heart?' Using as her text Philippians 4:13 "I can do all things thrciugh Christ which strengtheneth me," she stressed the need for each. of us. to get our hearts in the centre of God's will, and warned us to be careful before we say, "I can't do that, I don't have time." She thinks if we're so programmed that the Lord can't get in, our hearts are not in the centre of God's will. After relating many personal examples, Mrs. Rice said she believes if we give God what he's asking for, He returns it manifold. We were encouraged to ask Jesus to help us to see God's will in situations pertinent to us, to be considerate of the opportunities and the tasks God puts in our way, and whatever it costs to do what he Wants us to do) knowing that He will reward us with strength, joy, and peace. Mrs. Rice showed slides de- pleting phases of Chinese life - the people and their attire, pub- lic buildings, Buddhas street scenes of markets, methods of transportation by bicycles, trains cars push carts, etc. The Whitechurch meeting was chaired by Mrs. Donald Robert- son Kinlough, Mrs. Wm.

These are not. wild geese and it IS well known in this area that they are tame. The guilty parties ig- nored no-trespassing signs and deliberately, shot the geese while they were on the river. Why anyone would 'want to kill these beautiful creatures, knowing they are privately owned, and tame, is beyond understanding. If .they were around later to hear the crying of the flock they would surely regret their actions. The incident is being investigated by the R.C.M.I'. and the O.P.P. • * * * * * Santa Claus is coming to town.
