6 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, September 15, 1976 WESiLEY1VILLE- The first faîl meeting of the Wesleyville unît of the Wel- come UCW was held at the cburcb at tbe usual bour of two o'clock, Wedr'esday, Sept. 8th. The meeting was called to order by the leader, Mrs. Clarence Nichols reading a tbougbt for the day. The pragram for the afternoon was in charge of tbe September group, led by Mrs. Harold Austin. Following the caîl to woùrsbip and the opening hymn, the scripture was read by Mrs. H. Austin, supplying for Mrs. Maclrwin. The med- itation was given by Mrs. George Tufford and Mrs. Arnold Austin led in prayer. The offering was received by Mrs. Byron Cryderman and dedicated by Mrs. Roy Austin. Mrs. E. Barrowclough intro- duced the topic, "Our chang- ing raie in mission" and members divided in two groups, discussed wbetber the UCW sbould accept the chal- lenge of involvement in the rebabilitation of those confin- ed in the correction institut- ions. The need for this pro ject was explained by the Rev. Gerald Brown, cbaplain at Pine Ridge Scbooi near Bow- manville, while speaking at a cburcb service recentiy. The general opinion was that we should agree to beip, but with special guidance, and oniy if there would seem to be benefit from the effort. More detailed information is to be sought. One of the needs in the cbanging mission of the church is for education to bring an awareness of life not only in other lands, but escpecially, our own. We were very fortunate to hear Anna Retallick of Port Hope give an accaunt of a most unusual tour to the Eastern Arctic, and particularly to Baffin Island. This was a trip wbicb describ- ed an area unspoiled by modemn civilization. Tradit- ionally the Anglican and Roman Catholie churches bave served these areas, 50 United cburcb people bave mucb to learn. There were no Indians and the Eskimo people were happy, friendly and banest. Many were away from the small communities, hunting. Icebergs generally are out of the fiords in August but there had been a blizzard, there was 10 inches of snow and the icebergs indescribab- ly beautiful, were sýill there. The government builds bouses for those wbo want tbem; their food supply from the outside cornes by boat once a year. This tour was the first sucb to the area and provided mucb information concerning the people and their environ- ment. Mrs. H. Austin Who bas berself been to the Western, Arctic, thanked Miss Retallick on behaif of ail for ber excellent presentation. During the business, maney was voted- for the general fund; roll caîl was answered by an article for StreetHaven. An invitation bad been receiv- ed by the UCW to a ttend an opening of a new serviceof StreetHaven on Tbursday,. Sept. 9tb at Beaverton, but no one was free to go. 1 Scbool children are settled in their respective scbools and classes for the coming scbool year. Charlene Austin, Lisa Barnard and Beverley Stacey are beginning kindergarten at Welcome and Cindy Gould is in grade one theme. There were about 25 mem- bers and visitors wbo attended the September meeting of the Morrisb Women's Institute on Tuesday, Sept. 7 at the Morrisb Cburcb building. The special speaker was Austin Cbestnut of Port Hope who told of the milîs of the township. Austin bad done cansiderable research bimself as well as bis personal knowledge of milling acquired duing bis many yeams of work at Canton and other milis.

Was our cool summer a sign of a permanent change in our climate? Ponte says yes and shows wby the weather is changing and what man has done to bis world. Spimmer Solstice by Michael Hinkmeyer Katie has returned to hier consider seriously the present use and abuse of good agricul-. tural land and hie urged every member of the congregation to exert ail the pressure and influence within his control to prevent further waste of one of -our most precious resources. It is not enough that we each try to produce some portion of our family's needs. We must also step forward and resist local and regional groups who with housing, new highways etc. are robbing our nation of its agricultural resources at the present rate of 50 acres each hour. Mr. McKellars remarks re- minded this writer of the excellent presentation by the 4-H Conservation Club in Orono a few weeks ago. The young people. there, like Mr. McKellar, 'were urging us all to look around and see how we can ahl make better use of every bit of good productive land. We can all produce food, provide shelter for wildlife and effectively control natural erosion if only we will plan more effective use of our gardens and fields. This family enjoyed a trip to Port Hope on Saturday night to see the famous old mnovie "Gone With The Wind." We found it just as interesting and enjoyable as it was some 20 yýears ago when we saw it int the samne old Capitol Theatre. By the way, we think the town of Port Hope is to be congratulated for keeping its little movie house in such good repair and we were impressed by the number of young people. present on a Saturday even- ing.

This of course means that the Mafia will have to try to destroy the "lsongbird". this confrontation between good and evil ends in a most unexpected way. The Canadian Connection by Jean-Pierre Charbonneau The reader of tbis book wiil be surprised to learn alI the details of the stories he-she bas anly seen on television or in newspaper beadlines. Drug trafficking is the main subject and we discover, that Montreal is a major link in world drug trade. This is a very long book but also very readable and a must for anyone interested in tbe Canadian crime scene. Ail these books as well as many more new ones and scores of older ones are available at the Bowmanville Public Library wbicb is open Monday to Friday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. and Saturday 10 arn. to 5 p.m. The Omen by David Seltzer Now a frightening movie, this book deals witb an outwardly normal cbild wbo nevertheless brings death and destruction to those wbo oppose bis destiny.

The Russians by Henrick Smitb Smith,, a former writer for Time magazine, presents an inside view of Russia, a look at how a country really lives under a Communist govern- ment. The day-to-day 11fr iof the average person is not as attractive as the Soviet go- vernment says it is, but it is not as unappealing as we might imagine. Smith shows thatthey have many of the same social problems that Western society bas (delin- quency, alcholism, polîtical corruption) and he also shows problems peculiar to this type of political system. The every- day lives and personalities of the Russian people corne across very well. It's a warm book about people, not just political systems and so is bigbly recommended. ,Do you know somieone who is blind or handicapped in some other way so.that he or she cannot read an ordinary book?
