Australia topic
for 3 Ms group
The May meeting of the 3Ms of
the Presbyterian Church, Wingham,
was sponsored by Mr. and Mrs.
John Donaldson.
Mr. and Mrs. Bob Carbert of
Wingham gave an interesting slide
presentation of Australia and New
Zealand.
Shirley Donaldson welcomed the
group. A timely ,meditation.,
'When Following Seems Unfair,"
was given by Shirley Donaldson,
saying: "Maybe God is putting you
through an experience.°° This was
followed by a prayer. John Donald-
son read the scripture from John,
Ch. 21, and led in a '"singspira-
tion.°° Mrs. Donaldson also read
about beautiful spring, saying:
"Renew your life with health and
courage." The president, Mrs.
Floyd Phillips, conducted the busi-
ness portion of the meeting.
Mrs. Bruce MacDonald intro-
duced the topic by singing Aus-
tralia's National Anthem, accompa-
nied by Cora Robertson. She also
sang "Waltzing Matilda", which is
a song relating to life in Australia.
It was an effective prelude to Mr.
Carbert"s slides of Australia. He
said it was the trip of a lifetime,
spending 10 days in Australia and
14 days in New Zealand which they
liked very much. Using various
modes of travel they were able to
view the beautiful flower gardens
and churches, a famous opera
house and most impressive war
memorials. They saw koala bears,
and plenty of kangaroos which are
becoming too plentiful, and herds
of cattle and sheep. It is reported
that in Australia there are 30 sheep
for* every man, woman and child.
