Secrets from the
Blue Barn Kitchen
By Kay Grose

With Lent nearing its end
we offer a cheese dish and a
vegetable bake, both very tasty.
Cheese in the diet has great
value. It has a variety of vita-
mins as well as that elusive
calcium. Non-milk drinkers
could depend partly on cheese
for their daily calcium but
some milk should also be used
on cereals or puddings.
A tray of gourmet cheese
and crackers fills a multitude
of between meal roles.

Film Shown at
General Meeting
The general meeting of the
U.C.W. was held in the United
Church Monday evening. The
meeting was opened by Mrs. J.
Reavie and Scripture was read
by Mrs. G. W. Tiffin. Mrs. G.
Richardson read the medita-
tion, "If We Care Enough".
Mrs. J. Walker led in prayer.
A film, "The Detached
American" was shown and Mrs.
Lewis of Exeter led in a dis-
cussion period. The film was
about a girl murdered in New
York city in 1964 while 38 peo-
ple watched and did nothing.
The discussion, "Why people
do not want to get involved"
was lively and interesting.
Mrs. Reavie closed the meet-
ing with a poem and prayer.
Delegates for the three-day
conference being held in Wing-
ham were present at the meet-
ing.
—Mr. Ross Hilbert of Guelph
spent the week-end with his
mother, Mrs. William Hilbert
Sr.
tial to the new evangelism.
The church is the living body
of Christ identified with his fel-
low man -- and must be identi-
fied with subsidized housing,
medicare, decent wages. The
good news must be given to in-
dividuals but also to public life.
The church must be identified
with improving bad housing and
caring for the children of work-
ing mothers. The U.C.W. is
organized for fellowship and
service and can do this type of
work.
The new evangelism means,
"Get where the action is -- and
start praying". It means identi-
fying with society, standing be-
side the lonely, hurt person. A
cynical world has had too much
preaching and is now demand-
ing action. "Don't speak to
me of love, show me," is God's
call to our generation.
The chairman of Huron Pres-
bytery, Rev. A. Higginbotham,
introduced the guest speaker and
Miss Iva Mai Smith was in
charge of the music. Miss Lyn-
da Reavie and George Jardine
sang the duet, "God that Mad-
est Earth and Heaven".
MISSIONARY SPEAKS
At Wednesday morning's ses-
sion Miss Muriel Bamford on
furlough from India, spoke of
her work in Bauswara.
Though we are aware of the
tremendous variety of peoples
in India and the small percent-
age of Christians, the individ-
ual's plight is hard to realize.
The Christian mission began in
1914 with 4 Christians and in
1964 there were 2615. Miss
Bamford used several examples
of the slow process of change in
individuals' lives. More evan-
gelists are required.
The poverty of India is
shocking -- even to the African
visitor. The Christian people
are generally from the low
caste and therefore poor group.
From Bauswara agriculturalists
conduct pilot projects and show
the effectiveness of new meth-
ods, good seed, fertilizer. Im-
proved poultry raising methods
have produced 50% increase in
egg production. A real drought
in India has increased the prob-
lem. Jim McNairn of Seaforth
went out in February to drill
wells. The churches are co-
operating to help famine relief.
The city people have cash to
buy food but the villagers re-
quire meals from the churches
to survive. These people will
soon have no water for the rains
do not come until July.
In Bauswara, the churches
run a school for those to grade
5, The government provides
some higher education but hos-
tels are required to enable stud-
ents to attend. The churches
co-operate to run a hospital and
Retired Nurse, 96
Turnberry Native
Mrs. Andrew Agar. a resi-
dent of the Baker Nursing Home
in Mount Forest, is getting a
little of the attention these days
she used to give others many
years ago.
Mrs. Agar, celebrated her
96th birthday Tuesday. She
spent some of the 50 years she
has lived in Mount Forest nurs-
ing people back to health in her
home during the days before the
municipality had a hospital.
Until two years ago she liv-
ed in her own home and did her
own housework.
Everyone at the nursing home
calls her "grandma." She is
quite alert and maintains a keen
interest in music.
Mrs. Agar was born in Turn-
berry Township, a daughter of
the late Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert
Stevens. She was married in
1891 to Andrew R. Agar, who
died in 1948. She has one son,
William, of Mount Forest, five
grandchildren, 16 great-grand-
children and seven great-great-
grandchildren.
—Mr. and Mrs. Harold Ham-
ilton of Wyoming spent the
week-end with Mr. and Mrs.
Herman Nethery and other
friends.

MAIN STREET, WINGHAM
Phone 357-2981
Tuesday evening at 8 o'clock
the Wingham United Church
was almost filled to capacity
for the public service conduct-
ed by Rev. C. M. Jardine in
conjunction with the three-day
meeting of London Conference
United Church Women in Wing-
ham.
The guest speaker for the
service, Rev. J. R. Hord, Sec-
retary, Board of Evangelism and
Social Service chose "The New
Evangelism" as his topic. This
new evangelism calls man to
see Christ at work in the world.
Mr. Hord asked, "Can we
crush communism by force?
Will dropping bombs stop com-
munism in Vietnam?" He is,
personally, opposed to escala-
tion of the war in Vietnam and
spoke of the part he played in
a protest movement in Saska-
toon and Regina last week-end.
He admired the passion for jus-
tice and service he saw in this
protest march. He sees Martin
Luther King as a modern Moses
leading his people .
Formerly, goodness was a
prerequisite of church member-
ship. The new evangelism
urges the acceptance of the
needy just as they are, the en-
folding in a warm friendship,
the personal sharing. Would
evangelism stress the profes-
sional evangelist? This empha-
sized the gap between the cler-
gy and the laity. Team work
between these groups is essen-
a training school. In India
there is one nurse to every
13, 000 people. Over 80% of
nurses are from the Christian
community.
We can be happy about what
has been done but must realize
what a great work is yet to be
done, the speaker told her audi-
ence.
