The Anglican Church Women held their quiet Lenten Day on Thursday at the home of the president, Mrs. Roy Collins, who ex- tended a welcome and opened with a poem. Prayer and the Scripture from Proverbs Chapter 6 followed and each member answered the roll call with a Lenten scrip- ture verse. Mrs. Ronald Thacker read the minutes and also the planning of the World Day of Prayer. Mrs. Harvey Cooper was convener and called on the Rev. Merelyn Letson who gave an excellent talk on "Say yes to God". She opened and closed her devotion with prayer and gave us much to think of in this holy season. The ladies are invited to Mrs. David Haldenby's home for the Easter meeting which will begin with a midday potluck. The Easter remembrances to sick and shut-ins will be made ready and delivered for Easter. The president closed with "A Cross In Your Pocket". Refreshments were served and Mrs. Agnes Hodgins gave the By May Boyle courtesies. Mrs. Frank Maulden of here and Mrs. Jean Hughes of Lucknow visited on Thurs- day with Mr. and Mrs. Lorne Eadie at Wingharn.

Besides Italy their tour includes visits to Greece and Crete. Edith Webster had as visitors last week Mr. and Mrs. Ted McCullough from Ot- tawa Lake, Michigan.
