Since the initial shock of the dis- aster, Canadians by the tens of thousands have demonstrated their sympathy in the most practical way possible—by contributions to the Ontario Hurricane Relief Fund. This fund was launched with the official sanction of the Ontario Government leas than a day after the disaster struck, and its purpose is to avoid lupiication of effort by bringing all relief appeals under one banner. Chairman is Col. Eric Phillips, prominent Toronto indus- trialist, and honorary treasurer is 'N. J.. McKinnon, vice-president of the Canadian Bank of Commerce. These appointments were made by Premier Leslie Frost. The Ontario Hurricane Relief Fund is designed to bring immedi- ate financial aid to the homeless, orphans and other dependents and the needy. With the aid of many social agencies, officials of the fund have surveyed the damaged areas, depots have been set up for the dis- tribution of immediate financial aid in the affected areas, err' r'ans have been laid for the rc s ration Of household furnishings food, clothing and other neces 't'. s of life which were lost in th•: ods. Col. Phillips stresses that there is an urgent need for c::iiribu- tions. Property loss has exceeded al] early expectations and the prob- lem of rehabilitating thousands of flood survivors is an i---ec'"ate one. The Ontario Hurricane Relief Fund will warmly welcome indi- vidual and corporate donations, large and small. All Canadian banks' have been authorized to .re- ceive contributions, or they may be mailed to the Ontario Hurricane Relief Fund, 37 King Street East, Toronto.

''You should be proud of those .pito- neer members," she said, "who had faith in the future and trusted fu God. Today we are living in a world of chaos, suffering and tragedy, and there is a great challenge to today's Christian women. A Christian," she stated, "is one wlto lives or tries to live like Christ. Many Christians try to live in Heaven instead of on earth where they can help the sick—those sick in body and sick in mind." Continuing, she said, "We must either be a.tramp or 'a pilgrim—a tramp looks for the easy way of living, while a pilgrim lives with an objective and does what she can. God has revealed that all man- kind is linked 'together—if in war, why not in peace? "We are travellers looking ahead and where are crossroads and sign- posts. We must go forward, not backward. We must think of those who have not heard the truth and those who have strayed.
