Inside was a bill for a dental appointment I did net keep. It didn't irk me to have to pay something I didn't benefit from, because the joy of having played hookey on a memorable day richly added to my wealth .of memories, I suppose it had something to ido with the caress of spring sunshine, the smell of thawing earth or the lowing of a new- born calf just over the fence from our wayside home. It really doesn't need ..an excuse. I admit I was on my way to keep that appointment when the lure of an adventure was much stronger than my coa- science. A flock of tiny migrating birds rode a current of air northward shove me as I made my way to the station. I knew the route the train I was to board would, take, for I have travelled it often. It winds through a thickly populated suburban district where muni- cipal bylaws have demanded equal indestrial growth with each housing development. Small factories have sprout- ed along the CN right of way and as close as a stone's throw to the tracks are squat, one storey houses, their multicol- ored shingled roofs looking like a jeweled necklace strung on the bosom of mother. earth. Sunshine kissed the' line of newly washed, linen flapping in the breeze behind many of the homes; housewives with their Easter permanents tied in ker- chiefs gossiped over back fen- ces, pre-school age tots waded through hip high puddles and mud-caked dogs cavorted• on brown lawns that were just be- ginning to show the promise of lush 'greensward.

Wesley-Willis WMS Thankoffering Has Guests From Four Churches The Easter Thankeffering of the Woman's eifissionery So- ciety of Wesley-Willis United Church was held in the church on Monday afternoon, April 10 with guests :from Londesboro, Brucefield, Ontario Street and Idolmesville churches. Mrs, G, Manning, president of the Good Will Club was in charge of the opening. Mrs. Frank Fingland, president of the WMS took charge of the balance of the meeting. Mrs. John Sutter read froM Mark 15;1.8 and Bertha Diehl led in prayer. Readings were given from the visiting church, es, followed by a solo by Mrs. William Hearn with Mrs. VI, R, Rennie at the organ. Mrs, E, J, Rein'sten gave the of- fertory prayer, Mrs. C. Nelson ietrodeced the speaker, the Rev. Miss M. Cousens, Japan, who told of three mission 'schools support- ed by the WMS. Students there are eager to learn leng- list, There are Bible classes for the mothers, The women take a large part of the work of the church. Pictures of the work and life of the people in Japan were shown. A' vote of thanks was moved by Mrs. N. Holland and sec- onded by Mrs. Wilfred Jervis. The Rev. E. J. Roulston offered the closing prayer.. All were invited to the Sun day School room where lunch was served by the committee in charge, and a social time was enjoyed. , . . its covers while one booteed foot danced :free from such res- traint, As the train travelled throu- gh followed ;fields and those showing the :amazing early green of winter wheat, a start- ling 'headline, as it came to mind', almost spoiled my happy' observations. "Starvation Fac- es Most of 'the World", the black-faced type had claimed, quoting Dr. Brock -Chisholm.. With so much fertile land rushing past the train windows it is hard, on this glorious day, to accept Dr, Chisholnes pre- diction that within the next 41 years the world's population would' double in what he term- ed frightening birth explos- ion" which would create as many new humans as were born in the previous 200,000 years. Another headline Dr. Chis- holm made with an agitated statement was that children should` he told there isn't any Santa Claus. This, we all re- member, created a flurry some: years: ago among parents who believed in fairy tales and had little difficulty remembering the joy their own childish trust in the rely poly little fellow had brought into their early childhood. As my eyes watched 'the pas-- sling landscape that was sprout- ing into new, lush growth ev- erywhere, I was reminded of the day I took my youngest son to Dr. Chisholm 'to have a festered thumb lanced. He was at that time a general practitioner in Oakville, a small restless man with enquiring eyes and a rather detached manner. I was not at all sur- prised later when I learned he had :forsaken medical practice for broader fields in his pro- fession, to become director- general of the World Health Organization. I understood why doctoring in a small village on the shores of Lake Ontario would never have satisfied Brock Chisholm. Now in semi-retirement: I real- ize he is a v,eirriee mortal be- cause we are so dilatory in facthgprospects of the world's future. Gordon Burwash is another Canadian who has. made a pre- diction. He claims man's only salvation is to return to trains and horses as modes of trans- portation, The human race isn't the only thing, according to him, that is headed for explos- ive tactics. In less years than Brock Chisholm gave the population to multiply, Gordon Burwash predicts cars will be travelling bumper to bumper on. ALL our highways and will be in such a hopeless tangle in metropol- itan areas it will be impossible to move such vehicles as am- bulances and cars of the police force. He suggests cars be res- tricted to "necessary" or "em- ergency" categories which I presume include delivery tr- ucks. and those belonging to doctors or isolated residents. - It would appear as though we are playing hookey from our responsibility to future gen- erations just as surely as I played hookey from the un- pleasant prospect of a dentist's drill. I expect we will continue to do so, unless we are const- antly goaded into action by vis- ionariess like the Chisholms and Burwashes of this world. We are going to have to pay for our sins of omission and com- mission just as surely as I must pay for all_ appointment I ig- n Just the same, it makes me a little sad to think that those yet unborn may never. know the thrill I experienced in watching, in a leisurely man- ner, members of a well con- trolled population trend greet- ing a new, gloriously exhilar- ating season, The April meeting of the Wesley-Willie Woman's Assoc- iation was: held in the ehuich parlour with 'the president, Mrs. D. Andrews in the chair, The theme for the month was. "The World .Chureh." The presieeet read a suitable verse and led in 'the 'theme hymn and pray- er, Scripture from Rev. 21 was read by Mrs Oliver, Thoughts on the lesson were :given by Mrs, J. Nediger and prayer by the president followed by the Lord's Prayer in unison, It was announced that the drapes for dividing off Sunday School .class rooms had been made ard hung. Several voiced their appreciation for them, In ,the absence of Miss L. Walkineharw, Mrs. R, Jenkins read' :several cards of thanks. An invitation from t h e Woman's Missionary Society was. received:, asking the W.A, ladies to attend their Thank- offering on April 10. Mrs. Donald Andrews fav- oured with a lovely solo, "The Beautiful Garden of Prayer." Several home and hospital calls were reported. Mrs. F. Andrews gave the report of flowers and cards sent. The manse committee had visited the manse and reported on any necessary repair work, The committee was instructed to go ahead with any work. It was: decided to invite as many ladies as possible of the congregation for visitors day in May. Mrs. Fred Reid was appoint- ed a delegate to the W.A. Presbyterial in Walton on May 3, Mrs. Donald Andrews favor- ed with another solo, "Out of The Ivory Palaces". A vote of appreciation was given her. A social hour was spent with Mrs. T.
