SPRING TEA The Northside United Church schoolroom Was the setting for the Annual Spring Tea, sponsored by Group Two of the W.A. The guests were received at the door by Mrs, J. M. Scott and Mrs. 3. C. Britton, Mrs. John Kellar welcom- ed the ladies and introduced the speaker, Mrs. Kate Aitken, well- known radio and television per- sonality, whose subject was "Our Widening Horizons." Throughout her talk she showed how our lives and interests are reaching out to those of other nations; how corn- mnnioation with deeds, , as well as words, can bring results far greater than can be imagined. She commented on the riot last fall in the United Nations, Sitting in the press gallery, she said she 'could hardly believe what her eyes saw—a shocking -display of. violence in the beautiful building dedicated to world peace. The shoe -pounding episode and a man being hurled over the balcony rail were unbelievable in such a setting, "How can one find relief from the tensions aroused in a situation so disturbing " she questioned. Many, She suggested, relax through recreation, others take aspirin, whereas she reads poetry. Later, in her hotel room she read Robert Frost's poem, "Stopping By Woods On A Snowy Evening." After reciting the poem for her listeners, she referred again and again to the lines: "The woods are lovely, dark and deep, But I have promises to keep And miles to go before I sleep," Mrs. Aitken spoke of Canada's beauty, depth and importance, as well as of the responsibility, con- trasting our abundance with the need and want in other lands. Canada grants to her people many freedoms unknown to other peoples, she said. Religious free- dom is a great privilege, allowing many denominations to assemble as in the case of those listening to her, or to go to their individual places of worship. She paid tri- bute to the excellent work done in foreign fields by the Anglican, Presbyterian and United Chur• ches, and especially to that of the Roman Catholic Church. Free- dom of speech : allows Canadians to express their opinions short of slander or libel. Canada still has political freedom,.a secret ballot by which the people can vote as they like. In Switzerland, a tradi- tionally free country, Mrs. Aitken found she must report to the po- lice when she wanted to work in another town. This made her ap- preciate the freedom of move• rnent in her homeland, where she can go anywhere at any time, as long as she can pay for gasoline or a plane ticket, A group of related incidents during the Second World War prove how far-reaching can be the influence of lives upon others— lives that "have a promise to keep." Some handicapped women in Canada wanted to help. "Send us old socks," they said. The tops were cut open and made into lit- tle dressing gowns by sewing and featherstitching the flat pieces onto flannelette like grandmoth- er's patchwork comforters; In an English home for disturbed or- phan children, who -had; been sav- ed from the blitz, one little boy seemed unable to recover from his state of shock.' As he looked down over his robe of many colors he spied something familiar, "My'daddy had a pair of socks like that,' he said. Com- munication! With these Words he returned to normal, thanks to those who cared even an ocean away. In Johannesburg, South Africa, Mrs. Aitken stated that the city was divided into areas, the favor- ed whites occupying the central part with its many advantages. On the outskirts were slum sect- ions, where the natives lived un- der unbelievably poor conditions, Only one tap was provided to furnish water for a great number Beuileli .• I a In coming to Seaforth, Aitken proved ° that she has "promises to keep", When she calls tate out lronl her husy schedule With the ".Canadias Broadcasting Corporation and with UNICEF to share her exper. fences matt information with the a women of a small town, she is keeping faith, After a morning meeting in Ottawa, she flew to , Malton and drove to Seaforth. As ^ soon as she had finished her tea, sheleft for Malton to catch a 6:30 plane back to Ottawa, She, tsut$ "i would literally and figuratfjvely,. have many miles to go before she , could sleep, Food, Costs! buya REFRIGERATOR -FREEZER OR HOME FREEZER NOW/Mayl5 to June 3Q • Here's how you get your free $20 food certificate 'WHERE APPLIANCE DEALERS DISPLAY THIS SIGN Buy an electr'c home freezer now, May 15 to June 30, at any appli- ance store ppli-ance.store displaying the "Super- market In Your Home insignia.
