Area womenrrieptto .pray„ hear speakers. talk. of. Peace Exeter and area women met Friday to take part in the world- wide Day of Prayer which was prepared this year by a com- mittee of the National Christian Council of Japan. The theme was 'Make Us Builders of Peace', in Exeter, Caven Presbyterian Church was the setting for the service at which Mrs. Kenneth Rennick, Monkton, was the speaker. She said Canada has never been the battleground for war since confederation, "We have enjoyed an era of peace in that sense, yet our country is no more at peace than any other country of the world to-clay". She pointed out that when Jesus told his disciples he was leaving them peace he did not mean peace as opposed to war. In fact, he stated there would always be wars and rumors of wars. The peace Jesus was speaking about, she said, was the inner peace which comes from God. "It is only as we come to un- derstand and accept that Christ died as the peace offering for each of us do we find the peace for which we search and which we can then share with the rest of the world," Mrs. Rennick con- cluded. The choir was made up of members from several of the local churches and Mrs. Ada, Pinney and Mrs. Maxine Sereda sang a duet. Ladies taking ,part in the service were Mrs. Harry Strang, leader, and Mrs, Alex Meikle from Caven; Mrs. Henry Van Essen and Mrs. John Neevel, Bethel Reformed; Mrs,, T. Baarda and Mrs. A. Zandbergen, Christian Reformed; Mrs. D. Brunslow, Mrs. L. Amos, Mrs. Gertrude Hamilton, Exeter United; Mrs. Brian ColboOrn0, Mrs. Cliff Blanchard, Pen- tecostal; Mrs. G.A. Doidge, Miss M. Bisset, Anglican. The collection, of $92.67 was sent to the Inter-church council of Canada.

The service was preceded by a pot lot luncheon. Mrs. Donald Deas of Mitchell was the speaker. She noted that the Israeli word Shalom, meaning hello farewell, and peace had the positive On- notation of loving concern for each other, Using the letters of the word Peace, she stressed Patience, Encouragement, Awareness, Compassion and Endurance as necessary characteristics to develop if we are to be builders of peace. • Mrs. Deas was thanked by Mrs. Murray Christie, Leading the worship were Mrs, 'Malcolm Lamond, Mrs, Beverley Taylor' and Mrs. Lloyd Barker.

Alhambra Hall is the site of the Huron Hope Nursery school three mornings a week under the supervision of Mrs, Wm. Blewett, assisted by Mrs. Joan Smith and a number of volunteer women from the communities from whieh the nine young pupils come. Mrs. Margaret Engel, who formerly operated a day nursery, but who is now employed by the National Institute on Mental Retardation in Toronto, in the field of early childhood training, was guest speaker. She outlined the steps leading down from the Canadian Association for the, mentally retarded to the research satellite in the form of the National Institute on Mental Retardation, built by the Kin- smen of Canada as a centennial project to the provincial associations to the 114 local associations. Integration of the handicapped child with the normal children was the theory Mrs, Engel enlarged upon, as this is becoming a reality in more and more nursery and day „school settings. Huron Hope day school has always been integrated into the JA,D. McCurdy School in Huron Park with great success. She suggested, due to the lack of a regular day nursery close by in which children could be gradually integrated that one or two normal children be brought r I I I I I I into the Huron Hope nursery school setting. Instances were given to show that if the correct ground work is laid by the teachers, and the integration is a gradual and not just a dumping of the han- dicapped child in with other children, the different pupil is not only accepted, but protected and looked out for by the other students.
