Walker's Orchestra TORONTO - DANCING AT 9.00 p.m. - Each PROCEEDS FOR TUE WOOLLEN FUND Internment Pastor Trinity Y.P.U. Speaker Rev. Tristram, at present at In- ternment Camp No. 30, gave an entertaining and educational talk on "Africa" at Trinity Union,, Monday night. Pictures, taken from a trader's viewpoint, added much interest to the address. Mr. Tristram spent several years in Africa as a trader and told fascinating and exciting stories of his life and work there. lis talk deait chiefly with the Gold Coast and French Congo. The Gold Coast is about five degrees forth of the equator and the direct rays of the sun cause fatigue and illness to those ac- customed to a more temperate zone. Vegetation is dense and the land drenched with water and then under the sun's extremely hot rays, seems to send forth trees and shrubs almost as one views the coast. The speaker toki of the work of the Africans and the difficulties they are surmounting. Exceed- ingly interesting were the pic- tures of palm trees and cocoa bean trees, and the process of picking and drying the bard brown cocoa bean before shipping. Methods of transportation and the improve- ments of railways were also shown. Pathetic and startling were the eslides of children incorrectly nourished. Parents love their children but have no idea the proper food they should give them. Due to this lack of know- ledge, the death rate among small children is high and there is much that can be taught the African mother in the ]ine of nourishment and proper food. Christianity in Africa is spreading slowly, but again there is great need for workers and missionaries to con- tinue the work now established there. President Doris Dudley con-1 ducted the opening service and1 extended the thanks of the Union to Mr. Tristram. The meeting was under the convenorship of the Christian Missions Group.

Tamblyn, the Douglas Family and Miss Tena Ferguson were presented by Miss E. M. Blackburn. Special men- tion was made by Mis. R. E. Mor- ton of the gratitude of Leonard Lawlor, prisoner of war in Ger- manv, for the cards and boxes sent him by the C.G.I.T. Scrip- turc lessons were read by Mrs. Jno. Rickard and MrF. Geo. A.

Principal T. A. Rodgcr, Miss Hattie A. Mason and Miss M. Bernice Smith anci quite a number of the pupils wero on band te welcome, point out objccts of interest and answer questions. Thore was a registration booth in charge of pupils and before the evening was over there werc sev- eral pages of names in the book. The walls of every roomn were ornamented with samples of pupils' art and penmanship and on the shelving were specimens of pupils' craftmanship. Also on the desks were displayed each pupil's work books. These gave an insght into what is being taught and learned, sucb as print- ing, writing, aritbmatic, health, music and other fine arts, social studies, natural bistory, etc. 0f special interest in Pîinc i p a 1 Rodger's roomn was a model air- port, Flying Scbool No. 2, but by Bob Purdy. It displayed hangars, equipment a nd te n planes. Built on a sand table in Miss Mason's room, as an exemple of a group project, was a land- scape scene of mounitains, valîcys, lake and tunnels, with cars on the highway and trains on the railway. The evolution of trans- portation was depicted another place. Newton Selby and Doug- las Gray had co-operated in the building of a cardboard and match box bouse. A litthe old white table, on which the school radio stood, was in process of having its face lifted by Neil Britton and Bob Purdy of Principal Rodger's room and would emerge as a bandsome piece of furniture witb a rich brown appearance. Be- sides the modern piano, and the radio, the school bas an electric gramaphone, but not a moving picture projector. A river scene, witb trees and Indian wigwans, of the size and nature of a mural, attracted much attention in Miss Smith's room. It was executed entirely by the pupils. 0f equal attraction was a flat "SaIt and Fleur" landscape, in colours, on the Jr. room sand table. And there was a pupil-built model of Newcastle public and higb scbool, but of red and green blocks. The scboolhbas a well-organ- ized Junior Red Cross witb active units in ahi tbree rooms and there was much evidence of their in- terest and prectical work. Many fully completed afghans and other articles were on display and et- tracted much attention. Every room bas its workshop equipment, with verlous tools, and a supply of humber and other materials, and the variety and fine work- manship of aIl the useful and ornamental articles turned out by the pupils was simply amazing. It seemed that bere migbt be an excellent source of Christmas and birtbday presents or sbower gifts for tbe bride. All in ail it was evident after a tour of the rooms that the public school of today is laying a baianced foundation1 for the building of botb a liberal and useful education. Among the visitors present were: Inspector W. H. Carlton. Cobourg; Mis. Fred' Smitb, mother "SEEMS 1 CAN'T SAVE ANYTHING"I W E MET on Main Street. Jim had his usual ready smile, even when he got tellhng me how bard up he was. "iSeems funny,' he said, "I 'm earning more these days, but I just can't seem to keep it. "Taxes, Victory bonds and ail those other things coming off my pay." He paused, then went on slowly. "At least it seems as though I can 't save anything. Actualll, .of course, those war bonds are my savings. I 'm glad I 've salted away a few of them. And you can count me in on the FOURTH VICTORY LOAN too!
