(Bud) '01 - son at the pledging conference held at New York. The pledge has been increased by $4,000,000 from Canada's last pledge made two years ago. Pledges cover a two-year_period, and the one made today is for 1973 and 1974. Canada's pledge will consist of $7,480,000 in cash and the balance in food. The World Fobd Program, which is joi tly run by. the United Nations....aPd. the Food and Agri- culture Organization, has ex- perienced some difficulty in achieving 'an appropriate protein calorie balance in the food aid it offers. . Mr. Olson said that Canada's food contributions will continue to aim for an improvement in this balance. Canada has consistently been the second largest contributor to the World Food Program since it , was started in 1962. Mr. Olson noted that Canada and the United States have car- ried more than two-thirds of the load in the past, and urged other , partners to increase their share of the total. "Canada recognizes her re- sponsibility in making intelligent use of food, of meeting her objec- tive as a member of the World Food Program, of overcoming food' shortages in many poor countries, and of solving the pro- tein deficiency problem that ,is currently being given higfi priority by the United Nations and the Food and Agriculture Or- ganization," Mr. Olson said. Many adults were suffering emotionally because of the ab- sence of front teeth. An individual would unconsciously raise a hand .to,, his mouth to cover it while talking. Some, afraid to smile, would not apply for jobs in public places. More dwellers of this region will benefit in the near future as this program is scheduled to be expanded. Communication is a problem in teaching driving, as in ail other aspects of human relations. 'To- wards the end of one of a series of brush -up driving lessons, the i - structor told his student: "Pit your hand out of the window when you want to stop." At the next les- son she said, "That stopping tip was bunk. I tried putting my hand' out of the window, and went three blocks without even slowing down!" phlets and handed out sheets and discussed chosing sleepwear. She read the objectives. Mrs. Chand- ler discussed choosing the style and pattern, .then choosing the fabric and getting ready to cut. Jean Patterson and Ingrid Jouit- zke demonstrated taking meas- urements. Mrs. Robertson dem- onstrated equipping a sewing box. At achievement day, there is to be a fashion show and each will model her own garment.
