They are a mighty army, this legion
of the infirm, font" million strong who
want to take their place in the world
of men but instead are forced to stay
in their homes, hospitals and sant-
aria, They carve neither sympathy
nor charity, blut 'they do wish for
"the consideration of their fellow
men." Thus the establishment of an
annual international Shut-in's Day
held the first Sunday of June to en-
courage the public to visit the sick
and disabled.
Leaving for Kitchener
(Intended for last week)
Prior to leaving for their new home
in Kitchener recently a surprise fare-
weIl party was held for Mr, and Mrs.
(Ted) F. C. Byers at their home North
Dublin. Many friends gathered and
the evening was pleasantly spent in
social chat and dancing following
which a lunch was ,served by 'willing
helpers. Later an address was read
and the departing' couple were piresen-
td with a twilight floor lamp also a
sandwich toaster -'Mr. and Mrs. By-
ers thanked evelgone graciously for
the lovely gifts . and expressed their
regret in leaving the community, how-
ever extended a . welcome to ,any of
them in their new home. Dancing was
then resumed a jolly time spent with
folks present from West Mon'kton
Clinton, Dublin, Brodhagen, Stratford
and Mitchell. In the wee small hours
all departed . wishing Mr. and Mrs.
Byers success and good luck in their

The Fust Sunday in
June is Shut-In's Day
There are none more appreciative
of any little .attentions than the shut-
ins, for through adversity one comes
to value the worth of common -place
things, a card, a letter, a few flowers,
a visit, Let us who are enjoying the•
blessing of good health take time off
the first Sunday of June, to pay a
kindly thoughtful visit to someone
Iess favored than ourselves, some-
one belonging to this vast army of
the sick and infirm. Even such a
small effort on our part will be re-
ceived with joy and gratitude.
Let June 6th, then, be the begin-
ning of anew adevnture for you: an
adventure in neighborliness.
Why' not observe Shut -ire's Day in
Your community; few pleasures of
life bring greater returns
that of friendship.
International Shut-in's Day was
conceived in the hind of a young
Canadian invalid, Ernest Barker. With
(the help of a few friends he formed'
the Shut-in's Day Association "In-
+�ternational" to promote the diay
which fails annually on the first Sun-
day of June. The object of the As-
