Mary Hihn, the president, welcomed the members and guests. Miss Mary Louise Flach introduced Dr. G, W. O’Toole of Walkerton, the guest speaker. Dr. O’Toole was born at St. Peter’s in Cape Breton Island, He is a graduate of St. Francis Xavier Uni­ versity, Antigonish, Nova Scotia and a medical graduate of McGill Univer­ sity, Montreal. In his remarks to the Sodalists, Dr. O’Toole left the impression that just as he in the medical profession had found, God has a place for each person as he journeys through life. The young people of today are quite familiar with every personality of television and screen, but know very little about religious personalities and the foremost place they take in the world of today. He urged the girls to study their religion, practise it, and. then their good example would reach out as a support to all God’s child­ ren, for He uses each of us as an instrument bringing souls to Heaven. Dr. O’Toole was thanked by Mar­ garet Brophy and presented with a little gift of appreciation. Evening Guild Tours Lloyd's Factory On the evening of Tuesday, May 17, the Evening Guild of St. Paul’s Church met at 8 p.m. at Lloyd’s Door factory.

His explanations were both technical and spiced with humour. The ladies were impressed with the machinery and the wide vari­ ety of doors.

May rally in Lucknow Presbyterian Church on May 17. There was a good attendance from the Auxiliaries at both sessions. Tho president, Mrs. M. Henderson, presided at both meetings, Tees­ water Auxiliary was in charge of the afternoon devotions and Evening Auxiliaries of Ripley and Cranbrook took the evening devotions. Miss M, McLeod, Lucknow extended words of welcome and Rev. W. McClean, Luck­ now, brought greetings from Presby­ tery. After roll call and the treasurer’s report, Mrs. MacPherson and Mrs. Appleby sang "In the Garden.” The guest speaker was Miss H. Bricker, girl’s work secretary. Her topic was "A Canadian Looks at the Church in Asia.” She gave a clear picture of what met her eyes and was register­ ed on her memory during her recent trip through mission fields in Japan, Formosa and India. The tragic plight of the refugees, the great physical needs of the people, and the intellec­ tual need to overcome the supersti­ tious religion that still has a heavy hold on the minds of the people. Miss L. Reith, secretary for adult work, gave helpful advice in the dis­ cussion period. The delegates to Synodical gave a report on the meet­ ings held in St. Thomas. Then followed the presentation of an "In Memoriam” to Mrs. Wilson in honor of the work done by her mother, Mrs. Mowbray, for years in the Presbyterial; and an honorary life membership to a past president, Mrs. A. McAuley, Ripley. The session was closed with prayer by Mrs. L. Fortune. Evening Theme The theme of the evening session was "Christian Fellowship.” Dele­ gates to the evening dept, conference, held in Ottawa gave their report. Miss H. Bricker spoke on "Asians Look at the Mother Church in Can­ ada.” She tried to tell us how the young Asians look at the Mother Church by giving us a list of search­ ing questions, that these young people ask. Here are a few of them: If 60% of the people in Canada are Christian what are they doing to win the other 40% ? There is only 1% Christian in the East but that 1% is 100% alive to win the other 99%. What are you doing about the evils in your own country? Why don’t you send us more missionaries? Is your church really alive and growing? A number of young Christian Asians are training in Canada and they seem to be getting the impression that pleasure and comfort is our God. The Church has a warfare for souls yet we are losing our young people. Where are the two-thirds of the baptized children? They are not in our churches. Mrs. Day of Wingham sang a solo. Following roll call Miss M. William­ son, a missionary, home on furlough from the Bhil field in India, gave us an interesting talk on her work. It iis only about sixty years since the j men’s Auxiliary of 4 <■» **4 1______ ._____________ 1 V* Vi/ilrmissionaries' have been working among these hill people. There is much to be done yet but they are advancing and as one Bhil is educated he teaches another. Before real ad­ vance can be made in Asia, the men must have more respect for the wo­ men, she said. It wels a pleasure to see the C.G.I.T. girls at the evening meeting. Mrs. F. Moffat thanked all who took part. The .......................... Mrs. meeting closed with prayer by J. Fisher. ALL TYPES of rubber stamps and stamp pads sold at The Wingham Advance-Times.

The period of the play is the late 1800’s, the bustle period for women. The scene will be set in the morning room of a house on Madison Avenue in New York City. The whole family, Mr, and Mrs. Day are redheads, with the temperament to match, vital and spirited. The household leads a life of shadow and sunshine. When Father is pleasant and hearty the children are smiling and relaxed. When Father is angry they are sober and watchful. Father, however, is hot-tempered not bad-tempered. Mother is sprited and never a martyr. They are both ingen­ ious and both without humour. Mother is never scheming or calcu­ lating. She does try to postpone the meeting of household crises, but when they do occur she uses nothing but her feminine instinct. She is entirely feminine and Father is masculine and that is the whole basis of the conflicts that occur frequently throughout the play. the held 0-0-0 Work on the set is scheduled to begin this week, now that the lumber and equipment is assembled. The stage at the town hall looks pretty barren at the moment since the old set has been dismantled. Jim Currie, Bill Cruikshank, Stan Hiseler, Raymond Merkley and Miles Overend spent some pretty strenuous hours taking it down. Let’s hope they are as eager about putting a new together. one 0-0-0 Dorothy Templeman offered rubber plant and Mrs. Eckmier, Huron County librarian suggested a book on costumes of that period, which was eagrely received by Lillian Overend, who is directing. The Lon­ don Little Theatre kindly offered to lend the club some men’s frock coats. 0-0-0 her the The tickets for the play are now at the printers and will soon be on sale. So that townspeople will not be approached several times by different persons, to buy a ticket, a canvas will be made by the club members with each one taking a section of the town. If any non-members would like to help with any kind of preparation for the play they are cordially invited to drop in on a rehearsal, which are held Tuesday, Friday and Sunday evenings at 8 p.m., at the town.hall, and speak to the director. Public Health Nurse YIVA Guest Speaker Miss Mary Love, of Wingham, Hur­ on County public health nurse, was the guest speaker at the regular [ monthly meeting of the Young Wo- ? the Wingham j United Church, held on Tuesday, at the home of Mrs. Jack Walker. Miss Love addressed' the thirty-three mem­ bers present on the subject of mental health, stating that mental illness is very high in Canada. She said we are living in the greatest time in his­ tory and our world is essentially in ourselves and named a few ways in which we can help ourselves. Believe in ourselves and believe in the people of the world. Miss Love said we should have a religious attitude to­ wards life and a serene outlook and must do our best each day and make the best of every moment. The registered nurse mentioned the fact that everyone should have a hobby of some sort and to beware of saying “I haven’t time.’’ Collectors, she went on, are extremely happy people gaining a great sense of satis­ faction and accomplishment. In mentioning the fact that Canada has a very high accident rate, which is one of our unsolved health problems, she suggested that there should be a Jaw checking the mental health and physical well-being of motorists be­ fore they are issued with drivers’ permits. The speaker was introduced by Mrs. Jack Walker and thanked by Mrs. Fred Templeman, who also pre­ sented her with a gift. The devotional period of the auxil­ iary was conducted by Mrs. John Strong' with the theme being "Live to Give.” Prayer was given by Miss Barbara Stainton with the Scripture read by Mrs. Templeman. Mrs. Nelson Cunningham read an article from the United Church Observer entitled "Dis­ cipline.” Mrs. Allister Green read another article "A Day in the Parson­ age” and the offering was received. The president, Mrs. Ross Hilbert, was in charge of the business portion of the meeting, while the secretary, Mrs. Green, read the minutes and the roll call. The corresponding secretary, Mrs. George Guest, read three thank- you notes and the treasurer, Mrs. Russell Zurbrigg, gave her report, which showed a balance of $62.00. The sick and visiting committee reported one visit made’ during the month of April.

Today, voy­ agers may still suffer from that ancient disease, as any methodical, rapid change in motion and speed— whether it be on a ship, plane, merry-go-round or even a camel— produces similar effects on the body. Almost all of the trouble is due body’s or­ gan of balance, the inner ear, a structure about, the size of a small ■ key and reminis­ cent of a pretzel in shape. It reacts to abrupt changes by producing symptoms such as nausea, pallor and cold sweating. Canadian scientist R. L. Noble and other researchers investigated the extensive motion sickness prob­ lem during World War II and found remedies that gave partial aid to at least some travelers. Recently, the chemical labora­ tories came up with some new harm­ less compounds that proved to be very effective during tests conducted by the U. S. Armed Forces. Of the drugs examined, the investigators were particularly impressed with one called Bonamine—the only drug that gave 24-hour protection against motion sickness with a single dose.’ As this drug is now available for civilian use, it will be very easy for' the otherwise queasy traveler to enjoy the far-flung wonders of the world—without the ancient of motion sickness.
