She took and passed the RCDS Licensing exam and is currently working and residing in London, Ontario. 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.
