I am so glad I receive this paper. It keeps me up to date on the births and deaths, not that we like to read about our friends passing, but it is part of life. All the best in your endeavour to make the Lucknow Sentinel the best weekly newspaper around. Yours Truly, Wilamina Hill Toronto, Ontario To the Editor: As I look out the window and see the last throws of winter quickly .vanishing and fresh life anxiously awaiting the beautiful warm sun so it can burst from the ground, I look around me and feel very thankful that by some stroke of fate I am here m Canada and able to enjoy the fresh, clean air, the blue sky and rich fertile soil that is so much a part of us. But along with being grateful for where I live, I am also very grateful for the people who are a part of my country. `Canadians Care'. Yes, they really do, and nowhere is it more apparent than in the Third World. Of course there is much more to do, but I think we should acknowledge our ac- complishments. Accomplishments such as ... the number of man hours that Operation Eyesight volunteers donate ... the $25 donations, saved out of grocery money, or pension cheques that go toward restoring eyesight. They are truly impressive. Visiting a Third World country can make one feel very humble. To see the smiles of mothers and fathers whose children's sight has been restored or to observe an elderly woman, whose cataracts have just been removed, try to bend over to kiss the feet of monitoring personnel to show her gratitude. My wish is that all those who donate to Operation Eyesight could experience these feelings, to know what a wonderful thing they are doing ... giving individuals a feel- ing of self respect, a new lease on life, the joy of sight, Donations can be forwarded to P.O. Box 123, Station 'M', Calgary, Alberta T2P 2H6. I have one more wish, which unfor- tunately is an impossible one. I wish my RRIF f 1 .9% INVESTMENTS 122 l:ourthouse Sq..

But I also know what she would have said, "Don't worry about me, help those who really need your help, restore their sight so they can experience all the joys I've had most of my life." Albert Schewietzer said: "I don't know what your destiny will be, but one thing I do know; the only ones among you who will be really happy are those who have sought and found how to serve." My mother was really happy! Her whole life was spent doing for others. Have a very Happy Mother's Day, and may God protect and bless all our volunteers and may we recognize and thank them for their devoted efforts.
