Above ail else, tribute 'vas paid ta the picture ai the littie white church at Caesarea. These littie shrines ai Christianity and the iilar bush where once was the front garden gate is the vestige of pianeer settier lufe naw remaining in Durham County. Mrs. James Smalei (Kathleen), daughter ai Mr. and Mrs. John Baker, Sauina, got a great recep- tion as she sang "Red Sails in the Sunset", which was accampanied by Caesarea Regatta Pictures on the screen. Pictures ai clearing the settler's forest were beautiful and realistic 'but ta us to-day pitiful or shame- fui and since "Durham's treeless Folly" is a subject Dr. Williams always has up his sleeve, perhaps we'll get a jab or two as it is in Newcastle. A big turtie snapped <by the camera) an Scugag Marsh Road was credited with furnishing mast ai knowledge the speaker had ai Durham Caunty and the conversa- tion between themn given ta us was really humerous. The turtie knew mare about this caunty and its politics than the late Thomas Baker ai Darlington. In commentary and pictures a brief review was given ai Wo- men's Institute work in Ontario during its hall century leading up ta the Golden Jubiiee of 1947. We saw a red cut stone monument and plaque, narth ai Brantford, ta the founder Mrs. Adelaide Hoodless and first Branch at Stoney Creek, near Hamilton, also featured was the towering Mem- anial at Stoney Creek ta that battle here in the war ai 1812 which turned the tide ai victory over Amenîcan forces. The glory ai this we might well share in spirit for the W.I. In the minutes ai their jubiiee year they naied a huge sign ta the high escarpment behind Stoney Creek, that ail the world may read in their rsolution-"We Treasure the Past-We face the Future". In brie! it was summed up-"I know ai no other arganization for public service that in so short a time has done s0 much with so iittle money and show." Irn persanages was the herbal medicine pot af Dr. Lydia Truil, who sa gratuitousiy ministered irom Highland Creek ta Cobourg and beyond aver 'blaized trails, trackless iorest, fonded swollen stneams in her missions ai mercy.
