Wilfred Gilkinson, a former fire-
man and now with (the OPP, has
been visiting in town.
, It is rumored that. there will
soon be changes in the number of
people permitted to call in about
the whereabouts of fires. However,
as soon as we have a dial exchange
there will be less confusion.
Wonder how many people just
take it for granted that we have
doctors, garages, ambulances, fire
department, and police on duty
when they are away on family,
outings?
Then there's the big brawny lad
who carries the hydrant wrench
while his little partner does all the
nozzle and hose work.
We have been asked many times
why we don% turn the siren off
after it has summoned the fire-
men for a night call. How can we
when we're a mile out of town by
the time it has sounded twice?
The regular monthly meeting
will be held on July 25th at seven
o'clock.

Architect Michael Bach, of Toronto, has designed this two-storey house along simple lines for
economy. However, all.rooms are of ample dimensions and are arranged for convenient hying.
The open planning of the rooms on the ground floor adds an air of spaciousness. The large
windows in the living room overlook the garden and provide good natural lighting. There are large
storage cupboards in the upstairs hall and the architect has also provided room for storage in the
basement as well as space for laundry and a playroom.
The total floor area is 1,144 square feet and the exterior dimensions are 22 feet by 26 feet.
Working drawings for this house, known as Design 507, are available from Central Mortgage and
Housing Corporation at minimum cost.

The July meeting of the Woman's
Missionary Society of Wingham
United Church was held in the
school room and was opened with
prayer by the president, Mrs. C.
Fingland. The • devotional pbtiod
was conducted by Mk's. A. J„ Fox,
and was based on "The Sermon on
the Motint_and Parables"; ,ae:found
in the Gospa e61.iptilral;Utn:tions
were read by Mrs. J. J. 1<err and
Mrs. Fox conducted a discussion
in which several members took
part. She also gave a summary of
the study book whieh was finished
this month.
The audience was entertained by
seeing a group. of colored slides
which were presented , by Miss
Winnifred Farrier, who ,is yisiting
at;her home in Whiteehtil'eli.`Tliese
pictures were photographed by
Mrs. Farrier and portrayed the
beauty Of nature as shown in the
different seasons as one season
molds into the next. ..They were
taken mainly in south-western On-
tario, from the Bruce Peninsula
down and demonstrated the fact
that our own area has a '44,realth
of beauty equal to. any in the
world. The elose-iips ; of flowers
and trees with their clear outlines
and beautiful colors Were a joy
to all,
It was refreshing to note the
lack of formal arrangements and
to see nature in its own pictur-
esque setting. An. appropriate
accompantinent of Music and verse
added to the effect Of rural beauty.
Mrs, Fingland thanked Miss Far-
rier for her interesting addition to
the program.
As this was the last meeting of
the season as supper Was served
by the social committee, and the
gathering sat down at tables
decorated with 'bouquets Of roses.
Mrs. Fingland presided for a
short program, Mrs, D. S. Mac-
Naughton gave a geoup of humor-
ous readings and G., W. Tiffin
carried greetings froth the official
board of the church. A highlight
of the hour Was a presentation to
Mrs. a. W. Tiffin who had recently

million people jammed into a habit-

Build Shacks in Streets
The result is appalling. Human
beings ahe packed into terribly
overcrowded tenement flats divided
into cubicles and bed spaces. They ,
spill out into the streets to settle
in back alleys, or build little tar-
paper and sheet-iron shelters on
roof tops. On the slopes of every
hillside and jagged mountain,
thousands of families have collect-
ed old tin cans and waste timber
to build squatter villages of shacks.
There is no water or electricity of
any kind. Kerosene lamps spill,
fires start. In 1954, one such holo-
caust left 50,000 homeless in one
night.
Shao Chi's father manages to
earn a little money by Chinese
paintings, and his mommy takes ih
sewing. Together they earn about
$12.45 a month-barely enough to
cover food for the three of them.
Their home is an 8' x 10' Shack, Be-
cause Shao Chi is a bright boy
his family have been forcing them-
selves to scrape together $3.50 per
month for his schooling.
Family Finds New Hope
Recently new hope has come to
the P'An family, Through the on-
the-spot work of Foster Parents'
Plan, little Shao Chi has been
"adopted" by Miss Margaret Cork,
of Toronto. The adoption is finan-
cial only. Miss Cork has promised
to contribute $15 a month towards
his upkeep for a minimum period
of one year. This assures the boy
and his family an $8.00 monthly
cash grant, with food and clothing
parcels and necessary medical care.
Best of all, he and Miss Cork will
be able to write to each other at
least once a Month, with the letters
translated by Plan.
Foster Parents' Plan is a non-
profit, non-sectarian, international
relief organization, recognized by
the Canadian government, and stiP-
ported by hundreds of people
across Canada and around the
world.
