ated your fellowship with us in
this community and in the church,
and you are going to be missed.
We have admired the willing and
unwearying manner in which you
have co-operated in our work in
the Sunday School, the Evening
Auxiliary and the Choir. It seems
as if the church was a definita part
of your life and in its work you
found joy. We commend you be-
cause whatever you undertook to
do, you did, all you could, and did
it gladly. As Librarian of our
Choir, we are going to miss you,
and our beat wishes go with you
in your nvw location and position.
We hope that in the not very far
distant future you may be back
again in Hensall as one of its resi-
(tants, and a worker gain in our
church. Our thoughts and prayers
will be for your constant useful-
ness and happiness wherever you
may be, and as a token of all this
we ask you to receive from us this
gift which we believe will serve
you for a longtime to come. When-
ever
you are conscious of its
warmth and comfort, may it re-
kindile memories of happy times
spent with us in the church and at
our picnic and social functions, and
bring to your heart a renewal of
friendship and affection toward
those who, while absent from you,
hold within their hearts a great
esteem and a .sincere gratitude.
With every good wish for the fu-
ture. Sincerely, The 'choir of Hen-
sall United Church."
The following letter of thanks
was received by Miss Violet Mc-
Clymont, of Hensall, secretary of
the Wohelo Class of the United
Church, acknowledging a care par-
cel sent by members of the class:
"Niebull, British Zone: "I re-
ceived a care package from the
British Church Association helping
in Germany. In this package I'
found your name and address and
therefore I should like you my
gratitude. Four weeks ago I re-
turned home from Jugoslavia
where 1 had been prisoner of war.
My wife had fled to this place,
where her sister lives. when in
January, 1945• the Russians ap-
proached her village and all inhabi-
tants were forced, to leave their
homes. My wife earns a little
money by assisting the Protestant
clergyman. I formerly was a pas-
tor in Silesia. (Eastern Germany).
In 1942 I became a soldier and af-
ter the capitulation I was taken
prisoner in Jugoslavia. There in
1945 conditions were even worse
than in Russia. In the first days
after the capitulation and on a long
march from the Austrian frontier
to Belgrad and the southern dis-
tricts, almost half • of the German
soldiers were killed, lots of them
by famine. Nearly all German Red
Cross Sisters and girl helpers
were shot, drowned, or cruelly
brought to death.
"Between September, 1945, and
April, 1946, of the men of my pris-
oners' camp, 167 died, 300 were in-
valids and sent home, 300 had to
be laid into hospitals. Our food
was scarce; often we had no roof
above us, and Christmas, 1945, we
spent in the open-air by a fire. At
that time many of us had no coats
or shoes. Our sick prisoners lay
in barns and stables. I adminis-
tered them the Lord's Supper.
November, 1945, most of the Cath-
olic and Protestant clergymen were
sent to a special camp, called
Straflager (camp for people to be
punished). Since the summer of
11947 conditions in Jugoslavia im-
proved a little. We hope that un-
til the end of 1998 the remaining
60,000 German prisoners will be
sent home. Prisoners there cannot
save any money from what they
earn there by their work. The
money they get from a day's work
Is of no higher worth -than some
cigarettes.
"The ,Protestant Church cannot
give me a position or any employ-
ment sidce so many clergymen
have come from the east, Almost
one-third of Germany's territory
has been robbed by the Russians
and Polish, and the British and
American zones are overcrowded
with fugitives from these lost dis-
tricts. Thank you for your kind-
nests
indnests and nice package. With kind
regards, Hugo Hineber, British
Zone, Deutschland.",

IN THE REALM OF SPORT
Last week we mentioned Exeter
may enter a team in this group,
and just recently we heard that
Tavistock has decided to enter a
team in the Intermediate Series,
requesting a grouping in Group 6.
We feel sure Mitchell will be back
again, but the placing of a team
by the Clinton Colts is very un-
certain. Group 6 probably will be
made up of Seaforth, Clinton
Radar, Goderic'h, Exeter, Mitchell,
Tavistock and Centralia Flyers.
Sport fans, especially the juven-
ile followers, will be glad to know
that the Legion will present the
winners of the Legion Juvenile
Softball League with .a suitable
Legion crest to each individual
player on the championship team.
Winners were Brucefield.
Another item of interest to the
youngsters, according to Legion
Sports Officer, Fred E. Willis, is
the intention of the Legion to look
after the three outdoor rinks again
this season. We .believe work has
