Wednesdays in Lent are comnbined services in St. John's, Port Hope with the ruling, the only means by which a Canadian amateur could participate in the Can- adian Open is if he were extended an invitation or wins the Canadian Amateur Golf Tournament. It is clear the R.G.G.A., the amateur body for golf in Canada, bas submitted to pressure from U.S. Pro- fessional Golf Tournament officials. The Canadian Open, once our National Golf Tourn- ament, has become just another American Golf Tour event. Let us all hope that the R.C.G.A. will reassess the ruling and come forward with a plan that accommodates Canadian Amateur Golfers. Yours truly, J. B.

Un the Editor's Mail Dean Sir: The recent announcement by the Royal Canadian Golf Association that Canadian amateur golfers will be barred from attempting to qualify for the Canadian Open is most distressing. The Canadian Open in the past bas been a showcase for the finest Canadian Golfers, professional and amateur alike. It bas allowed the best amateur and professional golfers in Canada an oppor- tunity to compete on a Canadian Golf Course with the finest golfers in the wonld. Under the new R.C.G.A. lew castleS ISocial anc1 (Personal The regular March meeting of the Wesleyville group of Welcome UCW was held at Welcome church, on Wednes- day afternoon, March 10th; this group also has members from the former Zion -UCW. The leader, Mrs. Clarence Nichols called the meeting to order and opened with reading of a poem and business of the meeting was concluded before the program. Many activities for the future weeks were discussed including invitations from Canton and Coldsprings UCWs to attend their Easter meet- ings and announcemeit of a workshop at Campbellford in April. Three afghans were finished, one mainly by Mrs. Clarence Nichols and Ber- niece Best, Mrs. H. Barrow- clough and Mrs. A. Thorndyke and Mrs. J. Groeneveld. Berniece read a letter from Luk Yun Man which shows ber progress in school work since our first contact. Mrs. M. Payne reported on ber nego- tiations for the fall bus trip and asked for suggestions for the June outing. Word from Presbyterial committee of supply suggests knitted band- ages made for Angola be held until the situation in Angola is clearer. It was sugestidi information be sought regard- ing need for used clothing at Fred Victor mission. Postage on used christmas cards bas become prohibitive so a small number will be sent overseas and local needs investigated. The programme for the afternoon was in charge of Mrs. T. Wilson and group, Mrs. Wilson acting for Mrs. K. Ashby who was ill. The theme of devotions was Lent, with Mrs. Wilson reading the Scripture of Jesus' invitation in Matthew to any man to take up his cross.

Lent is the spring season of fasting with the suggestion of "'taking up" something rather than "giving up" something; such as a pro- gramme of Bible reading, meditation and prayer. Mrs. H. Darke read a poem, "Doing." The programme was on "Advèrtising" with different types classified by Mrs. Wil- son under four headings, with all present stating which group was more objectional to them. Many were considered to be downgrading the in- telligence of the viewer with claims of instant cleansing of dirt wherever it is found and many products claiming their superiority over any other kind. Other advertisements, especially of liquor which were subtle in their approach, with a wrong sense of values especially for young viewers. An address was prbvided for anyone wishing to send a letter of protest.\A contest of advertisements with product name missing, concluded the programme About 18 were present, several of whom had to detour around the waste spill at Morrish when attempt- ing to travel by No. 2 highway. Word was received here this week of the death of Mr. Durham, father of Mrs. Wm. Ashby, in Detroit. Mr. and Mrs. Ashby have been away for several weeks but were located in time for the funeral which was Saturdày, March 16th. Larry Ashby and Mrs. Ron Brimmacombe left on Friday night to drive to their grandfather's funeral. On the second Sunday of Lent at Welcome United church, George Tufford assist- ed Rev. R. Bartlett during the service. Rev. Bartlett used a pencil to illustrate his talk to LLE me children about the com- mandments, and their hymn was "Pass It On". The choir's anthem was "It is a good thing to give thanks", and the sermon text was "The re- wards of Disciple ship". The scripture lesson, prayers and responses with the good mess- age in the music and the promise in the sermon made this whole service very special for this Lenten season. Mr. and Mrs. Ken Symons greeted the congregation at the door. Quilters have been having difficulties during the past two weeks with' weather and illness. One was finished at Mrs. Darke's at noon Tuesday and another put in the frames. But with one afternoon off for a meeting, and Friday's ice rain'sending the ladies home in a hurry, the work was not completed till Saturday morn- ing. Mrs. S. Lancaster visited with one quilter on Wednesday afternoon while the others regretted that their necessary absence deprived them of a chat with a former neighbour.
