The factors that face us in this Modem world are popula- tion explosion, population shift from rural to urban centres, the new nationalism, and the atom- ic bomb, and these changes produce problems for the church. The Presbyterial travelling library made an interesting dis- play. The president, Mrs. Ralph Dickson, chose hymns and thoughts in keeping with the Easter season. A second film strip "In Joseph's Garden", centered around those who visit- ed the empty tomb. The roll call was answered with a favourite Easter hymn. Mary and Nancy Dickson re- ceived the offering.

WINGHAM, ONTARIO Dial 357.3630 WROXETER—The following letter was received by the How- ick Lions Club from Ian Howes, a former resident, who is at present teaching the Indian children at the settlement of Bearskin Lake, in Northern On- tario. The Howick Lions had spon- sored a successful used skate drive to supply these children with skates, and had shipped 65 pairs to Ian in March. The Club is most grateful for the contributions which were sent, without cost, to the children. The Club deems it a great pleasure, along with their teacher, Mr. Howes, to be able to participate in the laying of a good foundation for a healthy and character building pastime for these children who appreci- ate so much what has been done for them, while many would accept these as a matter of fact. Bearskin Lake, April 5, 1966. Dear Jim and Lions: I would like to congratulate you on the fine selection of skates that you were able to roun up for the children at Bea .tin. They arrived here last Tuesday in good shape and are now stored in the school awaiting distribution. I don't think that I will have them given out till next fall, now, as they would probably come to naught over the summer break. Next year we hope to be able to have an outdoor rink constructed on the school grounds if the lumber is avail- able. If not, we will have to settle for a clearing on the ice. I have been able to acquire a' fire pump and hose, so we should be able to keep a good ice surface. Indian Affairs supply us with most of the oth- er requirements for hockey. Three of the boys helped trans- port the boxes from the post of- fice to the school and were completely awed from the sight of so many skates all at one time. I thought that I was go- ing to have to lock them in the cupboard with the skates to keep them happy. At the time I asked if the club would be interested in the skate project, I mentioned that I would be able to raise a lit- tle money for their sale. I think that I said that each pu- pil could pay approximately a dollar per pair. There was no mention made with the ship- ment as to whether or not you wished any return on the skates. I have saved the stamps off the boxes and note that the postage was considerable. Would you at least accept that in return for the skates? Perhaps you could let me know in the near future as I may be moving in the spring and I would have to turn the matter over to the Band Council. Again, my special thanks. Perhaps next fall when the children get the skates you will hear from some of them. Yours truly, Ian. WROXETER Mr. and Mrs. Robt. Mont- gomery, Mr. and Mrs. Robt.
