On Wednesday, May 7,
Women's Day Out was for-
tunate enough to have Mrs. R.
C. Lambert show slides and
Speak about South Africa.
Dr. 'Lambert and his family
lived in South Africa for three
years. They lived in the very
modern city of Durban where
Dr. , Lambert worked In a
mission hospital (Dr. Valerie
Jones worsted at the same
hospital).
Because they were involved
in the hospital, they were able
to meet all races. Tourists are
not able to do this because of
racial segregation. Negro
servants had to live in a
separate house.
The negroes were not allowed
to live in the cities. They had
their own villages and had to
travel many miles to the
mission hospitals and to work.
Negroes were not allowed to
speak to the whites in public.
They even 'had their own
beaches.
South Africa has no change of
seasons.. The average tem-
perature in the summer is 80
degrees F, In . July, in the
winter, it gets quite cool and
may snow but the snow is gone
in a short time, There is snow in
the mountains.
Elementary schools in South
Africa are for boys and girls,
but the secondary schools are
separate.
Sports are well organized.
They play cricket, polo, and
soccer as well as other sports.
The doctors were given their
holidays the same time as their
children so they ,could travel.
The Lamberts visited • 'such
places as Victoria Falls which
is higher than Niagara Falls
and very "beautiful, and Cape
Town `the •, home of heart
transplants and Dr. Barnard".
It certainly was a thrilling
experience. Thanks again•Mrs.
Lambert.
This week, May 14th, Joan
Van Den Broeck took us on a
tour of the jail. We will be
reporting on this next week.
We are 'having Home and
School representatives come to
'speak to us from Toronto on
May 21st. On May 28 we are
going to have a picnic at one of
Mr. Hindmarsh's log cabins
near the beach. This should be,
a fun way to end the year.
Help us make our last two
meetings a success! Join us
Wednesday mornings from 9:30
- 11 at Knox Presbyterian
Church. Bring your kids too.

45, while pedestrian deaths
were down 11.8 percent from
346 to 305. •
Transportation and ' corn,
munications minister John R.
Rhodes said, "These figures
are the most encouraging
we've had to date. In addition,
it's the lowest death rate per.
100 million miles travelled over
the past 20 years."
The 1974 statistics show that
there were 204,271 reported
motor vehicle collisions' - an
increase ' of 5.8 percent as
compared to 1973: •

lytr;—R-frozles--concludec ;
"Close to ' 40 percent of those
fatally injured are once again
in the,15 to 24 -year -age group.
"Our goal is to reach these
young people and .make them
aware of the responsibilities of
driving safely. And this can be
achieved with the thoughtful
.co-operation of every motorist
in Ontario," he said.
