350 at the IJCW conference
A record number, more than
360 ladies, attended the 10th
annual meeting of Huron-Perth
Presbyterial, United Church
Women held in N orthside United
Church, Seaforth with the
president, Mrs Leonard Strong,
Egmondville presiding.
Particularly challenging was
the talk by special guest, Elaine
Townshend, Clinton, about the
Awareness League of the
Physically Handicapped whose
aims are to bring about architec-
tural, legislative, and social
changes to benefit the handicap-
ped. It is important for the
handicapped person to get out
and take part in the 'community,
she said,
This comes from personal
knowlege as she herself, born
without arms, is now a well-
known feature writer and
columnist. The 'ultimate goal is
that handicapped and non-handi-
capped participate together and
thus understand each other. .
Ann Reuber, Stratford, spoke.
on the themeof the day, Citizen-
ship of Two Worlds. She spent,
three years in Japan in the work
of the church but is presently
teaching here. The real test. of
citizenship, she said, is in what a
person does. The test of who you
are is in what y ou do. Being
aware of the people close to us
and the needs around us makes •
us citizens of one world, the one
right here, She said. Help us to
pray expecting something to
happen and then let us live with
what happens, she said.
