The corn and milk powder will be loaded aboard a ship nowiwaiting in New Orleans which is scheduled to sail shortly after Labour Day. On Fifty-five tonnes of number two corn destined for Nicaragua were shipped out of Hensall Co-op on Monday. The corn (along with 88 ton- nes of milk powder bought in Toronto) has been purchased by the Canadian office of the Christian Reformed World Relief Committee (CRWRC) to help feed the many Nicaraguans who bore the brunt of a severe tropical storm that hammered much of Central America in May. Though the contract called for 55 tonnes of grade three corn bagged and loaded at the Hensall mill, the local co-op supplied higher quality number two corn at the number three price as their contribution to this charitable endeavour. The specially manufac- tured bags proclaiming "Gift from Canada" in both English and Spanish were further embellished with highly visi- ble replicas of the Canadian flag. Harry Veldstra, Canadian director of CRWRC, drove •droni his Burlington office to Hensall to participate in a dedication ceremony. As the corn was being loaded deacons and elders from Christian Reformed con- gregations in Exeter, Clinton and Lucknow bowed their heads while Bernard De Jonge, pastor of the Exeter church, prayed that the ultimate. result of the ship- ment would be "to the greater glory of God and the better- ment of our neighbours."
