Staff photo UCW hear John Kellerman on handicappeds' lives John Kellerman of Toronto, a former Dashwood resident, who . has cerebral palsy, showed the film "Walk A Mile in. My Shoes", at the Thursday evening meeting of Zurich's United Church Women. He was assisted by Jack Gaiser of Dashwood. Special guests were members of the Bayfield and Goshen United Churches. The film showed how John himself, a girl paralized in a car accident, and a man with a broken leg cope with their han- dicaps. Getting on trains, buses and aeroplanes pose great dif- ficulty. John has been trying to make others aware that handicapped people can live normal lives. He has succeeded. During the question -and -answer period following the film he told thee audience that he did a lot of travelling. He has been to England and California, as well as many other places. He has also been asked to dine with Queen Elizabeth when she visits Ottawa;; The film has been shown on television 25 times in two and one- half years, and in places as far away as Israel. A quartet from the Mennonite Church - Mrs. Clifford Gingerich, Mrs. Glen Gascho, Mrs. Jim Gingerich and Mary Lou Erb - sang. several songs during the evening, accompanied by Mrs. Mahlon Martin at the piano. Marie Pask read a poem, "The Old-fashioned Thanksgiving". During the business period, it was announced that the Bible Society would meet in the United Church on November 6.
