Three Confederation Cara- vans will be exhibiting in 145 Ontario communities for a total of 344 days from May 1 until mid-November. •On each ex- hibit day the exhibit hours will be from 11 .a.m. to 11 p.m. Estimated per visitor time in the Caravan is approximately' 40 minutes, and all communities hosting the Caravan are urged to have corresponding celebra- tions to attract and entertain the spectators. Caravan Exterior In addition to the national message carried in the inter- iors of the caravans, there will be an area on the grounds out- side the 'caravan devoted to re- gional exhibits. Their purpose is to acquaint the visitor with some facts and foibles of their own area. The exhibits them- selves will require the partici- pation of the visitor where pos- sible, and provide a fair -ground atmosphere of gaiety and ,ex- citement appropriate to this celebration. Origin—The first section of the caravans has two primary functions. First, it serves to condition the viewer. Secondly this section suggests what Can- ada was many years ago. At the beginning, we find our- selves in a tropical forest. Then we view the creation of the continent. This is followed by a section on primitive man end- ing with the Indian of today. Explorations—This part shows us HOW Canada was explored. For the most part, the explora- tions section is not chronolog- ical, it is more concerned to show the MEANS of exploration what people wore, what they VARNA NEWS United Church Women The March meeting of the UCW was held last Thursday evening with a good attendance. The president, Mrs. M. Hayter, opened the meeting with pray- er. Group four were in charge of devotion's with Mrs. William Dowson in charge. Mrs. Lee McConnell read the scripture and Mrs. Dowson giving the meditation. Mrs. J. Johnston lead in prayer. An appropriate Easter poem was given by Mrs. Gordon Hill. The offering was taken by Mrs. M. Thompson and dedicated by Mrs. P. Johnston. The study book was taken by Mrs. William Dowson end it was on the early Protestant church in the Mari- times. Mrs. William McAsh and Mrs. A. J. Mustard gave the report of the Presbyterial which was held in Wingham. The roll call was answered by an Easter thought. There were 17 calls made to sick and shut-ins during the past month. Mrs. William Dowson closed meeting with prayer, and group three served lunch. Foreign Femmes The third meeting of the "Foreign Femmes" was held on Tuesday evening last at the home of Mrs. Allan Hayter. Eight girls were present and and answered the roll call with a recipe or food characteristic of England, Scotland, Ireland and Wales. Miss Carroll, home economist, was present and led the discussion on British tradi- tion. Debora Stephenson and Mary Lou Johnston demonstrat- ed •how to make English trifle and finnan haddie, with egg sauce. The meeting closed by singing God Save the Queen. * * * Mr. and Mrs. Donald Barker, Ruth, Lorne and Glenn, of King City, visited over the week -end at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Fred McClymont. CENTENNIAL Turkey and Ham SMORGASBORD handled, what they ate. One figure more than any other stands for exploration, and that is Samuel Champlain. The key section ofexplorations is de- voted to this creative man. Settlement—The third section begins with a nineteenth cen- tury poster asking people to come to Canada. After the post- er telling how wonderful the new land was going to be comes the reality; we find ourselves in the hold of one of the im- migrant ships that brought set- tlers to Canada in the last cen- tury. Upon leaving the ship's hold, we enter a room depict- ing the civilization of New France. The many waves of settlement will be represented, right up to our day, This great struggle to break the land and populate it ends with what might be called the crowning achievement — the city. The settlement section ends with a brilliant, frantic, rather amus- ing view of a Canadian city today. Pre -Confederation — The pre - confederation area will be il- lustrated by a series of chil- dren's pictures. These will be a child's' view of some of the many internal and external problems of the French and British colonies and the pres- sures and circumstances which led to confederation. Confederation—Now we find ourselves in a single, simple chamber which represents the act of confederation. This chamber is 'approached through a darkened area. Impact is created by dramatic lighting on the confederation sculpture displayed in the centre of the chamber. When we leave the confederation chamber we turn into a replica of a small print- ing establishment of the 1860s. Here a man is operating a print- ing press and distributing to our visitors the original pro- clamation of confederation. Leaving this we find that we are walking along a railway right-of-way. This is a stretch of track . as it was originally laid down in 1885—the thin rails nailed to ties set right in the sod. These rails lead us into an area representing the six provinces that have IN GOSHEN CHURCH Wed., March 29 Centennial Dress Optional Please contact Mrs. Melvin Elliott or Mrs. Russell Erratt for Tickets TICKETS: $130 Children under 12: 75c Under Six Free orimmememummeniimeremempiesememm joined Canada since then and rounded out the nation. Some- thing is represented of each province: its people, its charac- teristics, its reasons for joining. Manitoba in 1870, British Co- lumbia in 1871, Prince Edward Island in 1873, Saskatchewan and Alberta in 1905, and finally Newfoundland in 1949. Achievements and the Cana- dian Way—This section is de- signed to stress the complexity and diversity and variety of Ca- nadian occupations, resources and resourcefulness. To tell this story with the greatest ef- fect, it deliberately avoids categorizing our various oc- cupations. Instead, it is a continuous admixture of art and industry, labor and science, literature and inventions. Throughout this section, some of our products and achieve- ments will be given special at- tention. Canada in the World — We now enter the last section of the exhibit entitled CANADA IN THE WORLD. It is designed to show the status which Can- ada has achieved in interna- tional affairs and the part she has played as a nation in peace- keeping throughout the world. The military role of Canada is summed up in a single ex- hibit that is more symbolic, more moving in its simplicity than a larger display could ever be. It consists simply of four scared helmets. These four sil- ent hats say all that can be said about the Canadians who have fought and died in other parts of the world fighting our own or other people's wars. Another exhibit shows Cana- dian institutions abroad. Even more important than buildings are 'Canadian people. So the last section of "Canada in the World" is devoted to people. These people, all of them, are typical of the way in which Canada and the world have be- come interdependent. The train ends with a very short section. It is a kind of epilogue. It con- sists, in essence, of reflections of ourselves. Hidden voices pose questions, some of which are critical and provoking. The answers must come from each of us as individuals. 48 Ounce Supreme Peanut Butter _ _ _ 99c White or Pink — 2s White Swan Tissues _ _ _ 6/79c Salado Tea Bags, 60s _ _ _ _ 79c 15 Ounce Chum Dog Food 4/49c 9 Ounce Wagstaffe's Jam or Jellies _ 5/$1 19 Ounce Club House Peaches 31c Pineapple•Grapefruit Drink Stokely's Ping 3/$1 Nabisco Shredded Wheat _ _ 25c Maxwell House Instant Coffee, 6 oz. _ _ _ _ 99c Cheese Whiz, 16 -oz. jar _ _ 69c 14 Ounce Libby's Spaghetti 2/35c Pouch Pack Monarch Cake Mixes _ _ _ 4/69c 14 Ounce Van Camp's Beans . _ _ 4/69c Grapefruit 10/59c 6.Ox.
