ERY Ci LeieR Greenbank UCW The Greenbank unit of the UCW held an open meeting in the Church on Wednesday, June 2, in the evéning. Guests were present from Seagrave, Pinedale, Port Perry, Uxbridge, Sunder- land, Leaskdale, Sandford, and Wick: Quiet music was played on the organ by Betty McGee, as the ladies gathered in the Church. Mrs. Ruby Beare, president, ammounced the singing of Hymn 249 "Jesus Shall Reign Where're The Sun" to begin the Devo- tional. Scripture was read from the book of Matthew, Chapter 13, Verses 1-13, by Marg Cou- perthwaite followed by prayer. A solo, "Bless This House" was sung by Jean Pogue accomp- anied by Mrs. McGee at the piano- Lillian Harper read Ver- ses to Express Prayer By. The offering was taken and dedi- cated. The devotional closed with the singing of Hymn 252. "In Christ There Is No East or West." Mrs. Beare then extended a warm welcome to all present & called on Mae Blakeiy to in- troduce the guest speaker for the evening, the Rev. Mr. Callo 'of Hampton Charge. Mrs. Blak- ely's introductory remarks on the life of this young man in the work of the ministry were not only most informative but set the scene for a most inter- esting talk on the. work now being undertaken here in Can- ada. Mr. Callo began by telling something of the work of 'Cros- sroads Africa' and how it be- gan. When he returned to Can- ada on furlough in 1962, he met a friend from Africa who thought a similar project could be quite effective here in Can- ada among the various groups, in particular the Indians and the Whites. Following a trip into Northern Manitoba the idea to form such a project was be- gun. The Canadian project has become known as 'Operation Beaver'. In 1964 the first such operation took place with a group of volunteer workers from all parts of Canada, together with several from other coun- tries, going to Split Lake, Man- itoba in July to help the Indian people build a new church. Mr. Callo gave an interesting com- mentary on the way these peo- ple worked together, with the Indians of Split Lake and how both sides learned from each other- The various coloured slides showing the progress made and how this church was built from the ground up, dur- ing the period of one month, helped emphasize what can be accomplished through love and understanding. Other projects are planned for the coming years. At the conclusion of his talk Mr. Callo invited the ladies to ask any questions. As one listened and saw the coloured pictures, one could almost sense a feeling of taking part person- ally. How much better"world we could have if all people every- where strived for more love and understanding and a wil- lingness to help others: True fellowship with God--with His people. Mrs. Beare expressed apprec- iation to Mr. Callo on behalf of ail present for his interesting talk. Mrs. R. Johnson of Sun- derland was then called upon to lead in an Old Hymn sing- song: The various visiting Units then presented an entertaining programme. From Seagrave, a singing trio -- Mrs. Tobin and Maureen and Mrs. Abraham ac- companied on the piano by Mrs. Keon. Pinedale--Mrs. Sonley gave a very humorous reading ralled "Harvest."

Dr. Claude Vipond, recently nominated Ontario riding Lib- eral candidate told The Times in Oshawa he will probably seek election in the new Oshawa rid- ing. "But, I've been nominated for the present Ontario riding and it is still very much a possibil- ity that redistribution will not take effect until afer the next election," said Dr. Vipond. It is expected that redistri- bution could not be implement- ed before April, 1966. "But the chances of Prime Minister Pearson calling an election before that time look less likely all the time," said Dr. Vipond. The proposed Ontario Riding wiil consist of : (A) that part of the County of Ontario contained in the Townships of Brock, Pickering, Reach, Scott, Scugog, Uxbridge, East Whitby and Whitby ex- cepting that part of Whitby township contained in the area between the west limit of the City of Oshawa and the east limit of the Town of Whitby and lying south of the road allowance between Concessions 2 and 3; (B) that part of the County of Victoria contained in the Township of Mariposa excepting the Village of Woodville; (C) that part of the County of York contained in the Town- ships of Georgina and North Gwillimbury; (D) all the islands of Geor- gina Island Indian Reserve 33 (Population : 63,432). * * x OSHAWA consisting of that part of the County of Ontario contained in the City of Osh- awa, the Town of Whitby and that part of the Township of Whitby contained in the area between the west limit of the City of Oshawa and the east limit of the Town of Whitby and lying south of the road allow- ance between Concessions 2 & 3.
