English. The choir sang "Centennial Hymn", written by Mrs. A. R. DuVal of Wingham, a composition which has gained national at- tention as a fitting prayer for our country in its centennial year. Ted Ahara took the solo lead. Letters and telegrams were read from Rev. Walter Pickford, Rev. James Allen and Rev. and Mrs. E. 0. Lancaster. In his address Rev. James said that the past 100 years have been the most eventful in the history of the human fam- ily. "We have been thrust into a no-man's land... a time for sorting out what is worthless in our habits and standards, " said Mr. James. "The lust for the new, " said the speaker, "has become a disease. If you want to be pop- ular today you must discard everything from the past. Only what is new is supposed to be worthwhile." Mr. James referred to the war in Viet Nam as a spectacle of two powerful nations con- tending for the world heavy- weight championship and their ring is a small and hopelessly divided country. He concluded his sermon with a plea for the "simple san- ity of love". Couple to visit Scandinavia and Britain Rev.

The May meeting of Mait-- land Presbyterial of the Worneris Missionary Society was held in St, Andrew's Church last Thurs- day, The executive met in the church parlour at 1:30 p. M. and the afternoon session began at 2;00 p.m, in the church with Presbyterial President Mrs, Geo, Sutherland, Ripley, presiding, Mrs. A, Mundell, Belmore, was organist, After the invoca- tion and prayer by Mrs. Suther- land on the theme, "Faithful- ness", three members of the Langside group, Mrs. Wesley young, Mrs, Donald Watt and Mrs. Gordon Wall, led in de- votions, Mrs. Watt's theme on "How Great Is Thy Faithful- ness" was greatly appreciated. Mrs. T, A. Currie, Wing- ham, welcomed all in attend- ance to St. Andrew's, Mrs. John Good of Teeswater was un- able to be present to receive her honorary life membership so Mrs. Hugh Armstrong, Tees- water, read the letter of pre- sentation and expressed Mrs. Good's appreciation. Mrs. A. Mundell introduced the guest speaker, Mrs. A. H. McKague, Toronto, secretary of afternoon groups for the Gen- eral Council of the W. M. S. (Tal,D.). Mrs. McKague's ad- dress was quite interesting and informative. She described life in a northern city in the spring. One of the first signs of spring is to see the small ice cutter making a path across the bay, no matter how bleak everything looks. Next comes word that the lighthouse keep- ers have gone to their posts along the shores. She likened the ice boat cutters and light- house keepers to the missionar- ies and church workers who lead the way in presenting God's word first. Those of us at home must work to provide the light- house keepers and missionaries with oil for their tasks in God's sea of life, she said. This is one way in which the members of the W. M. S. can ever show their faithfulness. Mrs. McKague spoke at length on the work in providing the literature of the church for its members through the W.M. S. The sum of S14, 000 is al- located for this task of provid- ing the translation of the Bible and Other Christian literature in, foreign languages.' .The audience was pleased to hear a selection of music from a double trio of ladies from St. Andrew's choir, and. greetings from Presbytery by Rev. Gordon Fish, moderator, of Nlingham. A detailed report of the Syn- odical meetings, held in Strat- ford, April 18, 10 and 20, was received, read by Mrs. Henry McKenzie of Ashfielci, Miss McLaughlin of Wingham, Mrs. Don Robertson, Kinlough, Mrs. Mel Richie of Kincardine, and Mrs. Alvin Mundell, Delmore. The offering was dedicated by Mrs. Douglas Graham, South Kinloss. Mrs. J. W, English, Wingham, read a memorial tribute for those who had passed away during the year. The af- ternoon session was closed by prayer by Mrs. Andrew Gaunt of Whitechurch. Many of the la- dies enjoyed a delicious dinner served by the members of St. Andrew's groups, and a helpful social hour at the same time. EVENING SESSION The theme for the evening session was "Growth". Mrs. A, Mundell presided at the organ. The devotions were conducted by the Wingham Evening Group, with the Scripture read by Mrs. Redmond MacDonald, In her meditation, Mrs. Robt, A, Campbell used a modern pata- ble to show that as we work conscientiously to houseclean our earthly homes, so we should strive as hard to prepare our spiritual homes. Mrs,13, Molda led in prayer. ,Mrs. J. R. Lloyd of the Wing- ham Evening Group welcomed all present for the evening ses- sion. The Lucknow Evening Group presented a skit depicting the formation of the first Pres- byterial Society in this area. Four groups, St. Helens, Brus- sels, Kincardine and Lucknow were organized in 1876 by Mrs. J. Harvey of Toronto into the Presbyterial of Huron Maitland, to work in conjunction with the Women's Foreign Missionary Society (W.D.). Mrs. Oscar Casemore sang a medley of Canadian songs. Mrs. A. H. McKague, in her evening address compared life to the growth of a garden. She said we cannot sit back and watch it grow, we have to work in it. The world for Christ is a tall order and we must be prac- tising Christians, - "be ye do- ers of the Word."

Page 2 Wingham Advance*Tines, T1,ursela url A UNIQUE FEATURE of the new police radio communication installation here in Wingham permits instant contact with police through a despatcher, Lew Palmer, seen above centre, chatting with Con- stable Doug Foxton. The system's base station, being operated at the left by Chief Jim Miller, is located at the town hall. A mobile unit is operated in the cruiser, seen at right with Constable Ron Zimmer. In the event that no officer is at the station, all calls are automatically channelled to the despatcher, Mr. Palmer, who is then able to contact the cruiser. The local set- up can reach Seaforth which in turn is part of the Perth County radio system. Through this method, tie-in with the Ontario Pro- vincial Police radio network is accomplish- ed within seconds. —Advance-limes Photo.
