R. Bartlett was assisted by Mrs. J. McHolm for this fourth Sunday of Lent. Lead- ership in song was given by the junior choir, leader Mrs. Gloria Lax, and organist Mrs. Dennis Croft. Their anthem was "Glory to Thee, O God, Alleluia". The message to the children made use of illustra- tions of birds and animals being used to entertain and delight children and their elders but with the loss of their natural freedom: this empha- sized the wonderful freedom enjoyed by people here, to live their life to its full potential. The message of the sermon was "Ministry of the Thorn" using the scripture lesson of Paul's account of his handi- cap. The beautiful baskets of flowers were in loving memn- ai-y of Mr-. Edgar Eley. Elaine Kellogg entertained the young people at ber home on Sunday afternoon for fellowsbip and discussion of tbe Lenten period. CGIT held tbeir annual tea party ut Welcome United church an Wednesday after- noon Mai-ch 24th, this year with a Chinese tbemne. A table laden witb delicious home cooking and another with hand made articles for sale, were in charge of different members. The room was decorated with Chinese paper cutouts, and lettering on the walls. Cut-out designed paper covers were on the tables, each centred by a small potted plant whicb was for sale. Delicious Chin- ese food was served witb a choice of different feas. The afternoon's success was i-e- ward for the effort of the leaders, Mrs. R. Eyman, Ruth Kellog and Mrs. L. Kellog. Those attending from here were: Mesdames H. Austin, E. Barrowclough, G. Tufford, H. Best, T. Wilson, K. Ashby, H. Darke and D. MeColl. The latter three later on in the afternoon, attended a tea sponsored by Mesdames R. Lennard and W. Murray for the auxiliary of the Port Hope and District Hospital. It was held at Mr. and Mrs. Murray' very old, restored home. There were over 20 present and all enjoyed the sociability of the afternoon and refresh- ments served. A considerable sum was realized for the benefit of the hospital. On Saturday, March 27th, Clara Darke of Port Hope celebrated her 91st birthday into the academic ivory tower"..."an air of complete integrity". ....a tranquil, sane voice sounding in these chaotic times." In 1965 Queen's awarded Frank Knox an honorary LL.D., citing him as an excellent teacher who re- ed an eager student and predicting that graduates of this University, wherever gathered in numbers, would sooner or later exchange glowing giemories of Eco- nomics 4 He also held an LL.D. from Toronto (1964) and Fellowship in the Royal Society of Canada. Commenting on his death, Principal Watts said: "Pro- fessor Knox was a superb teacher. I deeply admired and Police Station i and among those who called to wish her happy returns were Mesdames K. Ashby, H, Darke and J. Adamson. Clara heard from her missionary friends in Africa to say they expected to be home this summer and were looking forward to seeing her then. There was a happy party for the Sunday school pople at Welcome on Monday evening, March 22nd, with about 42 present. Crokinole was the game played for entertain- ment and sharpest shooters were: Wendy Brice and Lance Payne, with Karen Arnold and Stephen Lovshin winning the consolation prizes.

This past weekend saw skating carnivals in both Newcastle and Port Hope. Julie Payne who had been in competition skating in Febru- ary, with a partner at Ash- burn, repeated that number at Newcastle on Saturday and Sunday and also participated in other skating display with brother Jeffrey and sister Nancy on the same days. Their cousin Shelly Payne also took part in the different numbers those days. At Port Hope on Saturday night and Sunday afternoon, Charlene Austin took part in th carnival there, dressed as Raggedy Ann. Ruth Hall, a senior skater, participated in several numbers. Several flocks of geese have been seen flying north but only small groups. It is not many years since grackles first made their appearance here but this spring they seem to be in numbers, almost to equal starlings. They are destruct- ive in that they destroy other birds' nests. The corn fields, where some shelled corn remains from last fall are well covered with starlings, cow- birds, Redwings and grackles, enough to make us feel that we will be overpopulated by fall. On Saturday evening, Mr. and Mrs. Murray Payne enter- tained about 67 young people in Newtonville hall, in honour of daughter Jennifer's recent birthday. They enjoyed dancing and cards and the happy fellowship of congenial company. OBITUARY (from Queen's Alermni) (Review) FRANK ALBERT KNOX Frank Albert Knox, B.A. '23, LL.D. '65, F.R.S.C., emeritus professor and eminent econ- omist, died in Kingston on Jan. 25. He was 81. A native of Orono, Ont., he taught public school in Osh- awa and Orillia and served with the Canadian Infantry overseas (1915-19) before com- ing to Queen's as a student of history and economics. He studied under O.D. Skelton, whose knowledge of Canadian economy and politics has gained respect among his Queen's colleagues and in government circles. Later, Frank Knox would become known as "one of Dr. Skelton's boys, that group of highly selected citizens, the intellect- ual elite of the Dominion" who left their mark in this same field. He was offered a lectureship at Queen's the year after gra'duation, and in 1924 he began a career in teaching which was to span 40 years. He managed to combine his lecturing with graduate work at both Harvard and the University of Chicago. Though he was head of the Depart- ment of Political and Eco- nomic Science for many years, he found time to serve on several government com- missions. In 1955 he was named chairman of the Co-- mittee of Inquiry into the Economics of the Gold Mining Industry. He was also widely known ta the business world through bis editorship of The Journal of the Canadian Bankers' Association and bis expertise on international trade.
