David Smith Guest Speaker ‘ .During Easter and the two fol- lowing weeks, Langstaff Baptist Church will hold services to re- joice in the power of the Risen Lord and to dedicate, to God, the new extension to the church which has been built with His help. The need for increased space became apparent last fall after the attend- ance at Bible School had hovered around the two hundred mark for almost a year. Although at first it was contemplated to build an addition of nine hundred square feet to the basement only, suffic- ient funds came in to enable the completion of a two-story super- structure, providing for an en- larged auditorium with new fount. lighting and seating; eleven new classrooms and vestry.

WELL WATER With the coming of spring and its incidental floods, major and minor, the rural drinking-water supply should be checked for pur- ity. When surface washings are excessive, even the best of wells may become contaminated. If there is an infant in the home where wa- ter from natural sources is used the water should be tested for ni- trates before being used in his formula. An excess of nitrates may cause a “blue baby" condition, although it does not harm older children or adults. Graéme Bales is now Cub In- structor with “A” pack and his as- sistance is welcomed.
