Canadian law and yet remains open.
Since December, thousands of people have
been protesting the operation of the clinic by
quietly walking back and forth in front of the
building, often chanting t'All we are, saying is
give life a chance". On three occasions
members of Voice for life have travelled to
Toronto to join in those walks 'and will
continue to do so until the clinic is closed.
Members of Voice for life are contacting
their member of the legislative assembly and
the attorney -general of Ontario, Mr. Robert
Welch, " to explain their opposition to the
Morgentaler clinic and to encourage .them to
pass legislation or take judicial action to have
it dosed.

remember. When she , returned to life, she
saw the smiling face of Doctor Cameron.
"I have no recollection of being rescued by
the Indians," she said. "Perhaps it is just as
well. I have heard some' dreadful stories
about their treatment of white people."
MacLeod was very perturbed by her last
statement.
"My dear Rebecca, I have lived with the
native peoples, have placed my life in their
hands, and I can assure you, there are no
more kind or gentle people on this earth,
when not harassed by the settlers. True, they
are a hard group. But they have to be in order
to survive. If they take to you as a friend, it is
a friendship which endures for life."
The minister was surprised that Rebecca
should have Came to Canada to give spiritual
guidance to the Indians, and had it not been
for her distressed state of , mind, he would
have told her she was not properly equipped
to be a missionary.
REDTREES
by Don Campbell
As the days passed by, Rebecca became
stronger and eventually totally recovered .
from her ordeal. From time to time, Doctor
Cameron called in to check on her progress. It
was after one of such visits that Mary ..
confided In her husband.
"I think our guest will be sony when the
doctor no longer finds it necessary to all
upon her. Do you know Duncan, when the
doctor was coming down the path today,
Rebecca was standing by the window. She
blushed aimson at the thought of seeing
Doctor Cameron!"
The Reverend Duncan Macleod smiled.
"As I said, my dear. The Ford had a reason
to send Rebecca to Redtrees!"
