Each joined with the other 170 delegates to elect the new National Spiritual Assembly of the Baha'is of Canada, which celebrated this year, the 30th Anniversary of its incorporation by Act of Parliament in 1948. This year's members include: Hossein Danesh from Ottawa, Glen Eyford and Ruth Eyford from St. Albert, Alberta, Michael Rochester and Elizabeth Rochester from St. John's, Newfoundland, Ed Muttart from Olds, Alberta, Jamieson Bond from South Mountain, Ontario, and Douglas Martin, Husayn Banani from Toronto, Ontario. Held at the same time as the Convention, the "Concert of Man" was the National Spiritual Assembly's gift •to the people of Fredericton for their hospitality onthe occasion of its 3011th an- niversary. Three per- formances featured Acadian -born Marie- Paule Martin, one of this year's du Maurier competition- winners; Gordi Munro from Halifax; Ballet Shayda from Ottawa, and Nancy Ward from Saskatoon. Besides being talented entertainer's, the per- formers represented, in themselves, -a measure of the diversity of humanity that it was the purpose of the "Concert of Man" to salute. At the very heart of the Baha'i Faith lies, an unshakable belief in the oneness of mankind, and the living of a life based on an appreciation of the differences among us. To demonstrate that a unified community, made up of people from every racial, cultural, economic or religious background is practical, and to provide both the spirit and structure for its establishment, is the animating purpose of the Baha'i Faith.

Meeting in Montreal Witness speaks on love "How pleasant it is to have friendly, warm'and helpful neighbours. They make a dark day a little brighter and a good day even more enjoyable. But how many of us are good neighbours?" asked Mr., Ralph Brodie, spokesman for Jehovah's Witnesses of the Goderich area. "Warm greetings, acts of courtesy and con- sideration are high on the list of today's scarcities. People in many places note a growing lack of concern for others," he observed. Mr. Brodie added that one factor strongly af- fecting human relations is our modern society. The system works against the spirit of generosity, he said. It tends to make us in- sensitive and selfish.
