Help is urgent- ly needed to do research, especially to react microfilm of old newspapers. Different topics have been assigned to certain people. Ivan is doing the chapter on chur- ches. Missionaries were sent out from London and Goderich, some of them the saddlebag type of preacher, and when enough people were involved, an advocacy was established, with meetings in homes or schools. Ivan found there was a lot of competition between the many denominations for members. The Methodists built many churches, but the Presbyterians built more durable buildings. Church unions were frequent, there being many changes over the years. The Parr Line was named after John Parr who in 1842 leased two lots, the present McClymont and Ostrom farms.

This weather is somewhat frustrating to the staff here, and f sup- pose to other places as well. Thanks to the dedication of our staff, they make themselves available to fill in the vacant spots on the shifts when necessary. Films were shown on Monday even- ing, "Canada 'l'oday" and "Season of the Elks". Happy birthday was sung for Mr. Risi by the residents and refreshments were served. The regular meeting of the Ladies Auxiliary was held on Tuesday even- ing, commencing with a program consisting of accordian music by George Mathonia and piano solos by Grace Martin. Refreshements were served and the Auxiliary members then adjourned to the Board Room for the business part of the meeting. We regret that Mrs. Hilda Shapton is still a patient in St. Joseph's Hospital, London. The Auxiliary ladies are planning towards the Bean Festival, and have their quilting frames up in the recrea- tion room of the apartments. Quilting has been progressing rather slowly, no doubt because of the weather along with other commitments they may have. Groupdiscussions, cookie baking, sing time, shuffle board and other games are still very much a part of the weekly activities here. Due to the uncertainty of the weather, bingo was played on Friday afternoon. The Sunday evening chapel service was conducted by Rev. John Camp- bell, Church of God, Grand Bend. Mid -Winter Specials!
