When the Township Red Cross canvassers‘ call at your door please’ don’t forget that there is a c0m-' mittee in our local Institute doing this work and would greatly appre-' \ciate any cash donations friend-s feel free to give. - It isn’t very often the Young Peoâ€" ple of this town ever want for any-' thing, but last Sunday evening a jitney service was something a few of the Y.P.U. members would really have enjoyed, when 10 members me}: to journey to Queensville to the Y. P.U. Rally and only one car to take' them. However where there's a will‘ there’s a way, and so one young man returned‘ home to see if “dad” \vould' trust the group with his car. The' answer was “yes”. Thanks to “dad” that the second car arrived in time' to get us there to hear Rev. J. D. Parks of High Park Church, Tor- onto, who brought us a very inspir- ing message and also the Baker Hill ladies’ choir who favored us with‘ several numbers in song. After the’ service the whole congregation, which‘ filled the church, were invited to the basement for lunch. There a-‘ gain after the greeting by the Pres-' bytery- Pres, Vera Hunter, Laskay, from the executive and local unions,‘ also by Rev. Foekler, Keswick, from‘ the ministers of the community, were passed on to the Queensville' society the choir again sang three’ numlbers which brought to a close a very wonderful meeting.

The J.F.A. and J.W.1. meetings on Tuesday evening were well attendâ€" ed and the International pictures se- cured' through Mr. Floyd Perkins,‘ proved very educational and interâ€" esting.
