Phone 887-9487 Chris Palmer, [right] receives his pin as the new president of the Huron County Federation of Agriculture at the Federation’s annual meeting in Blyth Friday night. The Belgrave-area farmer succeeds Paul Klopp of Zurich who made the presentation. The Afternoon Unit of the U.C.W. met on October 11 in the school room of the church with 11 persons present. In the absence ofc Mrs. Sarah Anderson, Mrs. Olive Bolt was in charge. The secretary’s and treasurer’s reports were given and Mrs. Janisa Coultes reported as to the number of Mandates and copies of the Upper Room. Two volunteered to take the copies of the Upper Room to Brookhaven and Callander Nursing Homes. For worship Mrs. Bolt’s theme was “Come YeThankful People Come”. She read a poem “Octo ber” and the group sang the first and third verses of the hymn, “Come Ye Thankful”. Mrs. Olive Campbell read Psalm 100, having a thankful heart. The meditation by Mrs. Bolt was “Having a thankful heart is reason for Thanksgiving. ’ ’ Thanksgiving is probably the most straight forward, no non sense, holiday of the year, the one every Canadian should be able to celebrate in complete honesty. Thanksgiving doesn’t require much more than recognition of all the wonderful things about this life each of us lives and of course, a thankful heart. Thanksgiving for Life. Life is precious for Work, for Love for the World. You don’t have to be religious to give thanks every day. It is a wonderful world. There is nothing better. For Bible Study Mrs. James Hunter used parts from the Daily Study for the letters of St. Paul. For Mission Study Mrs. Alice Scott used the Mandate for “Black Womenin South Africa.” Black Women in South Africa suffer much oppression. Magogo’s husband had to leave South Arica for the sake of his life. Magogo obtained a passport to go to see him and other relatives. On the way home she was arrested and sent to jail. All the charges were fabricated. Koko is black. Her major sin is her blackness. Having seen a bunch of children on the streets unattended, she came up with the idea of running a day care for those children. Before long the various embassies provided them with fabricated structures and some furniture and equipment. Busi is a domestic servant in a white family’s house. Busi lives in a single room in the back yard, she belongs to the organization that is trying to have the nannies and workers treated with respect. Every black woman in South Africa - indeed, every woman who cares for justice - they are the fighters, the unsung heroines. Mrs. Scott had been at a family reunion where a young man there is a specialist in Social Work after a number of different situations. He is now going to South Africa with the Unitarian Society. Mrs. Bolt closed the meeting with prayer. People Mrs. Alice Scott and Mr. and Mrs. Murray Scott and family motored to Caledon, Sunday, October 9to visit Mrs. Alice Scott’s brother W. F.
