"e( Can Live by /Myself, 1 chink"
Dressed in torn trousers and
a threadbare jacket that could
not hide the hump between the
shoulder blades, the new boy
savoured the warm scented air
of the building where they had
brought him. In the distance
he heard children laughing and
half hidden by a post, he
watched four boys on crutches
playing ping pong. A sign in-
formed him that he had enter-
ed the Sam Yook Disabled Chil-
dren's home sponsored by the
Unitarian Service Committee
of Canada in Korea.
On that December morning
in 1958 they found him, hud-
dled in the nook of a market
stall in Seol, trying to forget
the pangs of hunger that gnaw-
ed at his stomach, He could
scarcely remember when he
had not been hungry... not
only for food, hut for someone
to talk to, someone who would
not shun him because of his de-
formity. A little girl on a tri-
cycle smiled shyly at him as
she rode by and he felt the
first glimmer of acceptance in-
to the human race. What
would be the future of this
fourteen year old hunchback
without a family or friend in
the world? Sometimes his eyes
had strayed to the bridge over
the Tian River where many peo-
ple flung themselves into the
ice cold waters to bring an end
to all their problems.
Half a world away a group
of young eager students made
an application to the Unitarian
Service Committee of Canada
for a Korean orphan. They
wanted someone, preferably a
boy, with whom they could
correspond, At USC Head-
quarters, 63 Sparks Street, Ot-
tawa, the life of this unhappy
boy became mystically bound
to Canada. For the first time
in his existence Duk Kyoo felt
the concern of people he had
never seen. The years passed
in a happy flow of warm letters
while his young friends in Ca-
nada held concerts and bake
sales to renew the annual $96.
for his adoption. With their
encouragement and the special-
ized counselling and vocation -
fou
ole -
al guidance in the home, his
confidenee grew and he master-
ed the skill of printing and en-
graving. Early this year the
USC social team found him a
job in an engraver's shop. In
one of his last letters to the Ca-
nadian friends he had grown to
love he said: "Everything I
have today I owe to your warm
love and continuous help. With
this skill I can live myself, I
think."

controlled bell skirt, also en-
hanced around the bottom by

a French pure silk illusion fin-

with roses, sweetpeas and
white tapers.

of waltz blue peau de soie,
the bodice softly draped across
the front and styled with a
scoop neckline. The control-
led skirt was designed with an
overskirt enhanced with a self
fabric rose and bow.

a gold peau de soie sheath
with black accessories.

Travel Director Shows
How to Pack Suitcases
FORDWICH—The September
meeting of St. Anne's Guild
was held in the basement of the
church. The president, Mrs.
William Sothern, welcomed
the visiting ladies and Miss
Lane, and offered her apprecia-
tion for having so many attend.
A chapter from the study
book, "Let's Be Happy Chris-
tians", was read by Mrs, Jace-
lyn Daunt. Roll call was an-
swered with a get well card by
21 members.
The president introduced the
guest speaker, Miss Carol Lane,
Women's Travel Director for
Shell Canada Ltd., who gave a
very interesting talk on travel
in Canada, and demonstrated
the proper way to pack a suit-
case. The discussion was very
informative and also amusing.
The women found you can pack
a suitcase properly and have
quite a few extra gadgets that
most people wouldn't think to
take with them.
Mrs. Grace Brown thanked
Miss Lane and presented her
with a gift on behalf of the
Guild.
Mrs. Alma Hargrave, Mrs,
Ruby Armstrong, Mrs. Ruby For-
ster and Mrs. Sothern were ap-
pointed as a committee to
draw up plans for a booth at the
fair.
The October meeting will
be held at the home of Miss
Louise Matthews. The meet-
ing closed with a hymn. The
ladies then had the opportunity
of watching Miss Lane repack
her suitcase, and to ask ques-
tions they had on travel or
packing.

LOANS FOR STUDENTS
Guaranteed by the Government of Canada
Purpose: The purpose of the Canada Student Loans Act is to facilitate bank loans for
students who need financial help to continue full-time studies beyond secondary
school level at Universities and other educational institutions.
Who can apply: Any Canadian citizen, or anyone resident in Canada for one year who intends
to live in Canada after completion of studies, may apply for a loan under the
Act. An applicant must be enrolled or intend to enroll as a full-time student
at an educational institution approved by provincial authorities, and must
meet the standards of academic qualification and financial need established
by the student loan authority in the Province in which he applies.
Amount of loans: Depending upon individual circumstances and financial need, loans up to
$1,000 a year may be made, with a maximum of $5,000 during a student's
academic career. The Provincial Authority receiving applications and deter-
mining eligibility will issue a certificate to each eligible student stating the
maximum amount the student may borrow. This Certificate of Eligibility
is required before a student can arrange a Government Guaranteed Student
Loan with the bank of his choice.
Repayment: Interest -Free and Delayed Repayment Period
To assist students, the interest on loans during the period a student continues
full-time studies, and for six months thereafter, will be paid by the Government
of Canada. During this same period no repayment of principal is required, nor
will any service charge or fee be payable by the student.
Method of Repayment
Borrowers will begin to pay interest and to repay loans six months after they
cease to be full-time students. The current interest rate to students is 53/4
per annum. Normally the repayment period will be five to ten years. Borrowers
have the right to repay loans in part or in full at any time without penalty.
Life Insured
In the event of the death of a borrower responsibility for repayment of the
loans will be assumed by the Government of Canada.
Where to apply: A list of approved educational institutions in Ontario is contained in a
brochure now available at banks, universities and other educational institu-
tions. Ontario residents planning to attend one of these institutions should
apply directly to that institution for a Certificate of Eligibility.
Ontario residents planning to study in other provinces or countries should
direct enquiries to: Department of University Affairs, Suite 600, 344 Blow
-
Street West, Toronto.
