Young people’s class of Mrs. M. iC. Fletcher recently conducted an evening service at the church and the offering went towards “Operation Brown Cow," Mrs. John iScliiroeder’s^class of girls sponsored a candy sale and raised $20. Ajadther group, un­ der the direction of Mrs, Carfrcy Cann, plans an Easter tea. A class of 'boys, taught by Mrs. Del Mooney, is selling cookies made by the members; another class is collecting coat hangers; Mervyn Cudmore’s group plans to sell, popcorn. Another class, under the direc­ tion Of -Robert Southcott, will stage a pen and pencil “blitz”. The boys will call on every house in town and sell, at .retail prices, pens and .pencils they were able to purchase at wholesale cost. Other groups in the (Sunday School are donating money they would ordinarily spent on candy or amusement. “Enthusiasm in the 'Sunday School is high," -says iQarfrey 'Cann, the superintendent, who initiated : the* 'campaign. "Every member is contributing one way or another." He pointed out that •participation in itb-e project ds strictly voluntary for ‘the classes but each has decided to assist in some way. Above Missions Objective Mr. Cann explains that the project is over and above the regular church donation to mis­ sions. It does not affept the nor­ mal allocation James (Street sub­ scribes to general mission (funds. "Operation ‘Brown Cow" was sparked by Mr. Cann after he met Dr, Strangway recently in Dunn- ville and learned there of bis de­ sire to establish a dairy herd. The Angola negroes have cattle of their own but they are of poor quality and produce little milk. The doctor hoped that by esta­ blishing a good herd at his mis­ sion, he could not only provide milk for the childreti, but cduld help to improve 'the quality of cattle to natives raise. (Canadian cattle would, not survive because the weather is too hot and the insect too plenti­ ful. The Swiss cow, 'however, is suited to 'the climate and the church groups hope to buy four or five of these at $150 each. Climax of ’the campaign wil,! come on Muy 20 when Dr. fitran?r- way visits James street Church to1 receive the proceeds of “Oper at! on Wbwn Cow" before his re turn: to Africa.

She may hold a vital secret of your future health Here you are eye-witnessing a method of research that has re­ cently made medical history. Known as “tissue culture”, it is the method by which the famous Salk polio vaccine is produced. Hut this same technique now holds fixcit­ ing promise of bringing immunity from a host of other diseases! Meningitis, pneumonia, influenza, measles, chickenpox, mumps — these are but a few of the diseases whitJh 'Wiedical science is fighting on’"a' world-wide front with this shining neW* weapon. Like polio/ all of these ills can be caused‘by SOme kind of virus.' Some viruses can now be isolated . and grown in tissue cultures. After being “killed”, they inay then be made into safe vaccines. So the-— laboratory technician shown here may have in het hands the key to a vaccine that will someday con­ trol a disease which now is a potential threat to you and your loved ones. This project, conducted by the Research Institute Of the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto, is supported by funds contributed by the nation’s life insurance com­ panies. It is one of many similar projects supported wholly or in part in this way.
