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.

ELLIOTT'S BEAUTY LOUNGE COLD WAVE BODY PERMS HAIR COLORING 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. NEW OFFICERS Mrs. W. B.
