Was Speakef Al Day Of Prayer WHITECHURCH NEWS On Friday the World Day of Prayer was held in Whitechurch United Church at 2 p.m. The 'organist was Mrs. Don Ross playing the opening hymn All people that on earth do dwell. In the first part the Voice 1 was Mrs. John de Boer, Voice 2 Mrs. De Bruyn and Voice 3 Mrs. Gordon Rintoul. Hymns sung were In Christ 'there is no east nor west, 0 love that wilt not let me go, He liveth long who liveth well, Blest be the tie that binds. The scripture, I John 4: 7-21 was read by Mr. Bev Kay,, who also led in prayer and was the guest speaker on the topic "Love in Action". He illustrated Love ,in Action by the parable of the Good Samaritan, Luke 10. The Jew going from Jerusalem to Jericho was attacked and left half dead on the road. The first to come along was the priest and next was the Levite, who both walked by on the other side. The Samaritan next came and when he saw the Jew so badly beaten up he immediately took care of him even if they were of different tribes. Many christians today belong to the different types illustrated but the Samaritan was Love in Action. He illustrated Love • in Action with other stories from every day life. Mr. Kay was thanked by Mrs. Lorne Durnin, U.C.W. president. Voice 1 for the second part was Mrs. Lorne Durnin, Voice 2 Mrs. Walter Moore and Voice 3 Mrs. Russel Chapman.

NEWS By G. Austin Local 335 of the National Farmers Union, met at Brookside School on February 28 with president Mrs. Charles Wilkins presiding. Due to the stormy weather, the leadership training . course, which was to have been held in the Local, has been cancelled. There was a discussion on the continued low beef prices.. The Local will prepare a brief to be sent to Eugene Whelan and opposition parties in Ottawa and to our Own M.P.'s. John Austin is in charge of this. A brief to be presented to the Ashfield Township Council for their consideration was discussed and accepted with some changes. The following points were suggested by Local 335 to be incorporated into the township zoning by-law. (1) That there be an upper lithit no greater than 500 acres that any one individual farin family can control. (2) That a family farm be classified as one that the family operates by the fact that it is in financial control, provides the decision making and supplies most of the labour. (3) That any livestock or poultry unit must either own or have under long term lease enough land to handle the manure from the entire Operation. (4) That where land is zoned for livestock or poultry, the farmer who follows an accepted code of practice have the assurance the zone will not be changed. (5) Only classified family farms be eligible for tax rebates, special incentive loans, improvement grants, tile loans, subsidies etc. (6) That only farm related corpora- tions be allowed to operate a commercial enterprise. (7) That severances not be granted to accommodate additional resid- ences on class 1 and class 2 agricultural land, if it is desirable to build an additional house, then it would become part of the farm property. Severances are a controversial issue and with farms increasing in size, additional resident severances are likely to continue to be granted. These residential properties could outnumber the farm properties. If conflicting issues arose, they could form an urban council. It does not seem reasonable that an urban council would be desirable in a township, zoned agriculture.

ESTABLISHED OVER SIXTY YEARS WALKERTON PHONE 881.0234 ONTARIO Jane 'Pengilley Gets Posting To Wellington Co. In early March, Extension Home Economist Jane Pengiller will leave Huron County behind her to step into a new phase of her career. After three and a half years in Huron, Jane has been transferred to Wellington County, where she will work out of the Fergus office. She will, continue to carry out the Auties of Extension Home Econ- omist, which demands that she spend most of her time working with 4-H homemaking courses. Her involvement requires that she plan and oversee current 4-H projects; visit the various clubs to follow up earlier meetings; as well as organize Achievement Days. As well, Jane works with the Senior, Homemaking work, including a close liason with the Women's Institute groups. Huron County was Jane's first post on graduation from Home Economics at the University of Guelph. She looks upon the last three and half years as having "'really been exciting". "I've certainly gained a lot of experience and the sharing of ideas with the people I've worked with is something I'll never forget". A native of the farming commun- ity of Streetsville, Jane feels some remorse at having to pull up her Huron stakes but the challenge of "new people and new surround- ings" promises an attractive chal- lenge.
