This year, UNICEF also celebrates its
40th anniversary in providing water, nutri-
tion, education and health care to the
trillions of children whose lives are in
jeopardy. The role of the Canadian public
and government m extending these basic
services to the world's children has been
and continues to be both substantial and
important.
fpIn our campaign messages we urge On-
tarians to "Give the Children A Tomorrow".
Your assistance over the past year has done
just that for hundreds of thousands of
children. May I extend thanks on behalf of
these children and .the UNICEF volunteers
in Ontario.
Sincerely,
Elizabeth Haig,
Provincial Chairman,
Ontario UNICEF Committee
Doug Macaulay of the Clinton Kinsmen, presented Don Jefferson, President of Clinton
Minor Hockey, with a'cheque for $2,000. Mr. Jefferson said the money will go towards
paying for ice time. l Anne Narejko photo)
Correspondent returns from England
By Doris Hunter
BAYFIELD-This wanderer has returned
and I'm glad to be home to welcome the
snowdrops and the crocuses, just starting as
indeed they are most uncharacteristically in
England. A 'lard winter has wreaked havoc
with the customary spring show there.
• Canada House has the best window boxes,
laden withdaffodils and hyacinths this year.
However, there will always be an England
and the query "Is this the way to Buck-
ingham Palace?'
Attending the service at Westminster Ab-
0bey should be the first priority of any Cana-
,. wishing to let history becomeupper-
most for one's travels.
Seated in the Crossing and moving over to
allow for more worshippers, I was informed
that I, even a low tourist, was sitting in the
Queen's seat! Pleasant also, to have the con-
;,gregatiorl join in prayers for "the people of
q:,C ilaada,• Ontario. " It was a heartwarming
tp, me.
Ijt:';ias interesting to me to find each
'.'eh up.h we attended packed with people. In
Qxfir'd we had difficulty finding seats. The
newly 'elected Bishop of, Edinburgh was the
prbaclier.
. i Hider hostelers enjoy staying in college
-{residences during the summer, it is a dif-
ferent experience when the students are in
residence. My granddaughter is at Queen's
College, Cambridge. This provided the op-
portunity of staying with her there. The
students have cosy rooms on four different
floors, with showers and toilets on landings
between each of them. There is little heat in
these corridors, and students can be found
emerging from the showers, bare footed and
clad only in bath towels.
Bicycles predominate, every student, and
they number in the thousands, most have
one, and to see them lined up in the college
bike rack is a sight indeed.
The architecture in Cambridge and Ox-
ford is quite different, each so beautiful one
finds it hard to believe the buildings are of
such an age.
Museums are a must of course and the
Ashmolean in Oxford is certainly one of the
finest. Here ;you will find the Marshall col-
lection of Worcester china, the finest' in the
world and overwhelmingly beautiful and the
exquisite Alfred jewel, the loveliest•treasure
of them all.
Museums speak of times gone by, but the
people who have evolved from past cultures
are of prime interest.
Waiting in the foyer was a real cross sec-
tion of England today, a group of Oxford
Dons in full professorial regalia, a class of
little girls, all uniformed in green with
pigtails flying; some Punk young people
with motley colored hair in spikes and
strange costumes; teenagers with tightly
curled long hair, and yes a couple of Cana-
dian tourists. That is England today.
Prices are higher than last year, as is the
pound. Travellers should be warned that
London banks are now charging to cash
travellers cheques, yes even American Ex-
press in sterling.
The Royal Bank which is the only so called
working Canadian bank in London, will cash
your cheques without charge.
The plays are splendid this year, and fun.
If you are journeying to Toronto to see Cats
with the Lioness, it is as great as everyone
says. Observe your cat well before going
and it will be more enjoyable if you have
read T.S. Elliot's poems, on .which it is
based.
Alas I have not tome home loaded with
antiques. I was too busy to shop.,
The best part of coming home was the
sight of Hubrey and Hilda Bell waiting to br-
ing me from the airport and the gift of a
large pot of pepper cress, from Harry Mit-
chell's Garden of Eating!

208 quilts start lOOth celebrations
HENSALL-Over four 'hundred and fifty
people converged in Hensall on March 18 for
Grandma's Quilting Party at the United
Church.
The event, beginning the 100th anniver-
sary year of the church building, saw 208
quilts on display. The quilts made over 100
years ago,consisted of the old curved foot-
', board bed quilts, very old woollen, satin or
velvet embroidered patchwork quilts, piec-
ed quilts, applicated quilts, delicate em-
broidered patterns and spread quilts. •
One full room of various autograph quilts
attracted a lot of interest with their different
designs and patterns. They were made from
the first world war to the new Hensall
` United Church 1986 Centennial quilt.
The Baby Crib room was of interest not
wonly to the young mothers and fathers but
also to Grandma as the many designs from
bears to dogs to the little old Dutch girl and
boy were on display.
The dining room, also decorated with a
number of quilts, was full of chit-chat as
people met over a cup of tea, biscuits and
apple -butter and reminisced about their
quilting experiences over the years.
During the day the visitors were able to
get a first hand glimpse of quilting with the
ladies of the church quilting on a beautiful
Fan Design quilt at Grandma's Quilting
Party.
General chairperson for the event was
Belva Fuss, with Mona Alderdice in charge
of the quilt display, Hazel•Corbett in charge
of the 'door, Evelyn Flynn in charge of the
dining room and kitchen and Margaret Cole
in charge of the quilting bee. Others
