Fox at Crusade
SCOTLAND - Billy Graham is
presently conducting a series of
meetings called "Mission Scotland
'91" in three Scottish cities, May 25
- June 8, and the Times -Advocate
has a reporter on the scene. Eugene
Fox, who gave us a report on Dr.
Graham's "Mission England '89" is
in Bntain for ministry and personal
reasons, and he will repeat his free-
lance work for this paper again.
Over 1,000 churches representing
many denominations are participat-
ing in this, the largest effort to
share the Good News in Scotland,
since the Billy Graham crusade
there in 1955. Church leaders agree
these 10 meetings are greatly need-
ed, with church life in Scotland at a
very low ebb. But confidence is ris-
ing as they expect God to do great
things through the Mission.
Although Dr. Graham will preach
only in three cities of Edinburgh,
Aberdeen and Glasgow, the Mis-
sion will be much more extensive
than that. Through satellite technol-
ogy there will be 15 "Live Link"
centres set up throughout Scotland,
the same in every way as the ve-
nues where Dr. Graham will be
speaking, except there he will ap-
pear on huge television screens. An
additional 45 Live Link centres
have been organized throughout the
rest of Great Britain, so effectively
the Mission will involve 61 crusade
outreaches that will take place si-
multaneously..Tho Live Link ap-
pi`oaCh has bein
by the Billy
Graham people
f
places, and it is often the case that
the response to the message is
greater in the Live Links than
where Dr. Graham appears person-
ally.
Fox expects to file a full report
on the Mission for the Times -
Advocate shortly after the conclu-
sion of the meetings.
W.I. District Annual
CREDITON - The eight branches
of the Huron South Women's Insti-
tute met in Crediton on May 16 for
their 88th district annual meeting.
Marylin Pym, treasurer, said that
the catering to the Sportsman's Din-
ner gave a boost to another success-
ful year for the Institute finances.
Guest speaker Barb Shipley
spoke about literacy and how 17
percent of the population is func-
tionally illiterate, and nine percent
read at a grade one or two level.
Only 62 percent of the population
are considered to read well.
Shipley encouraged the Women's
Institute to play its part in promot-
ing literacy.
As a highlight of the evening,
Mona Alderdice and Lois Hodgins
presented Marilyn Pym and Marion
Dougall with Life Membership cer-
tificates.
Since next year is the year of the
tree, the Institutes are urged to plan
something in recognition of it. The
sesquicentennials of Stephen and
Usborne Townships are also main
events on the 1992 calendar.
Jane Muegge reported the age of
membership in 4-11 clubs has been
lowered to 10 years, and 64 pro-
jects are available over a three year
span, since clubs only need a mini-
mum of 14 hours per project.
Dolores Shapton brought greeting
from the area as the president was
unable to attend, asking the mem-
bers to make a list of what the W.I.
docs for them and what they do for
the W.I.
The next project is "Women feed
the World and S5 will buy a
spade, S10 a food preserving kettle,
$20 a wheelbarrow or a brooder,
and S150 buys a nutrition kit for
training courses.
The group were also told the Fed-
erated Women's institutes of Cana-
da.convention will be In Ontario in
1997.
Irene Richardson conducted the
election of 1991-1992 officers.
President will be Lois Hodgins,

When you pick up a pair of K Springers, the first thing you'll notice
is how light they are. Then you'll observe that the soles are slightly
thicker than usual and feel softer. That's because
K Springers are constructed in two layers.
On top (t), there's a soft springy layer of
deep foam. Under that (2) is a layer
