After ail were served, President Mrs. C. Wight took the chair. They *ere reminded it was the autumn Thank-offering and the President stressed the fact that we as Canadians sbould be especîally thankful because we are so blessed. Are we a better people because of it? Mrs.. C. W. Slemon made an appeal for the Japanese and a special collection was taken to send food to these starving people. Mrs W. P. Rogers brought a message from the Dominion Board of the W.M.S. regarding the dev- astation in the foriegn lands be- cause of the ravages o war and explained their plan to help these people and asked our support in thîs worthy cause. Miss V. Spargo and her group had charge of the worship period. The theme was "The Bible for my life and my Community". Mrs. H. Jamieson read the scripture lesson. Miss Spargo brought a brief message showing why we need understanding in these di- fficult days and how God is de- pending on us to do our part in bringing people dloser together. Miss Allie Bragg led in prayer. Mrs. T. W. Cawker sang very beautifully "Grateful 0 Lord am I". Mrs. W. E. C. Workman was accompanist throughout the meet- ing. Mrs. M. J. Hutchinson deait with. the chapter of the studyj book. She told, in a most inter- esting manner, of the taking of the Bible to the Hawaiian Islands and the influence it had there. It brought dividends in this w a r because when our soldiers ianded on some of these islands in the Pacifie they found Christians there and were given splendid treat- ment. Local Lions Clubs Again Sponsor Christmas Seal Sale If the 1948 tuberculosis control program for Bowmanville and Newcastle districts is to be suc- cessfully carried out, it will be necessary to raise a minimum of $3,000.00 through the forth-com- ing Christmas Seal Sale, Ray Dili- ing, chairman of the local Christ- mas Seai Committee told The Statesman this week. "Fighting tuberculosis bas be- come more and more a commun- ity effort, a citizens' movement," Mr. Dilling sP ïd. "Funds raised through the s. of Seals help pay for mass X-ray surveys, health ed- ucation, nursing services and, ia somes instances, rehabilitation of the ex-tuberculosis into profit- able employment and normal liv- ing conditions."~ Two dollars worth of Christ- mas Seals will reach every house- hoid in this district the day the Campaign opens, Nov. 24. If ev- eryone will buy his share the suc- cess of the undertaking wiil be assured, Mr. Dilling said. Again the Lions Clubs of Bow- manville and Newcastle are spon- soring this drive. The Four Horsemen Subjeci of Address By Dr. G. E. Reaman, Ph.D. Press reports gave mueh prom- inence to the address deiivered by Dr. G. E. Reaman, PhD, Dean of the Department o! Eagiisb, On- tario Agiculturai Coliege, Guelph, who was guest speaker at the Dis- trict Beekeepers Association ban- quet in Campbeiiford on Nov. 1.

For years Dr. Reaman bas been in advance o! bis times in urging educationai reforms aad he bas been beard witb great attention la many addresses 'he bas deliv- ered la recent years in the U.S.A. The subi ect o! bis address was "The Four Horsemen," which he divided under four sub-headings. Ia the first, science as a servant,, he said, bas become the master because o! the lack o! correlation with phiiosophy. la the second, the study o! bistory was stressed. Causes and effects are fundamen- tally the same now as in the past. Because o! bistory's tendency to repeat itseif, current events can be remedied by a study o! past events. Ia the third, be spoke o! youtbh. Oid and experieneed peo- ple bave lost their spirit o! yen- ture because o! the bard lessons they have learned. The daring and energy o-youth is nzod~eed to accept responsibiiity. As a iast su'btopic, Dr. Reaman said a Phil- osophy o! life was ail-important. He outiined three essentiais, be- lief in one's self, belle! la others and belief in some superhuman element which guides nature and human fortunes.

There is one going head first down the trunk of the big elm." "That must be a Nuthatch. Some people speak of it as the upsidedown bird, because in whichever direction it is going it is always seen head down. Wood- peckers climb towards the top, head up; Creepers work their way spiral fashion around a trunk; but Nuthatches can travel either up or down the tree with their heads pointing at the ground. Can you see its underside, Bobbie? IsJ its breast white or pink?" "White, and so is its face and a littie patch on each side of its short, square tail." "Then your birdl Is a White- breasted Nutbatch. Though not noticeable, it must have a small, chestnut daub under its tail. If its cap is grey, this is the female. Her husband wears a black one." "Why is it called P.uthatch, Aunt Alice?" "Because it wedges nuts into crevices and uses its strong bill to hack, or batch, the nuts open." In a few minutes the loud, na- sal "yank-yank" cali rang out, dis- pelling any doubt as to the visi- tor's identity. Bobbie pinched his nose and sang "yank-yank" in imitation. This bird is smaller than a Song Sparrow, yet when beside its first cousin, the Red-breasted, it looks large. To some extent their ranges overlap. Both breed in southern Canada; but whereas the « Red-breasted is a more northerly bird, the White-breasted spends most of its time in the United States. Its large, strong feet are es- pecially adapted for their use. The hind toe has a long, sharp nail, making the bird sure-footed. No doubt the Nuthatch's mode of elimbing allows it to get a down- ward view of the crevices in the bark, so that from this angle it must see insects that Woodpeck- ers miss. The bill is long to en- able it to poke well into the bark for insect pests, their eggs, and the larvae. Much good is accom- plished by this inquisitive bird. The flight of a Nuthatch is un- dulating. Sometimes several of them* look as if they were playing tag, though they take littie time off from work. At this szason they may l'e seen travelling in company with the serious-minded Brow'n Creepers and light-heartedi Chiekadees. These three specles get on famously together, ecd tackling the same.-job in its own way. What makes Chickadees attrac- tive? Youth Day at Royal Include B.H.S. Puplis As Guests of Fair To conform with the slogan "Youth in Agriculture" adopted this year by the Royal Winter Fair, the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce is pronioting a caval- cade of high school students to take part in Youth Day at the fair, Thursdae, Nov. 20.
