a, fw i "N oN vv PORT PERRY, ONT, THURSDAY, APRIL 19th, 1951 There 'were a few who tried hard to get to Church on Sunday and those who gid received a fine message on Prayer from the Rev, R. B. Harrison, The choir was in their places and at the close of the segvice, Mr. Harrison made many pleasing remarks to Miss Allene Sweetman, our organist, since Mrs. Samells moved away. .

Fisher, Brook- lin, . Manning, Alta, Mar. 26, 1961. - Dear Mrs. Luke and other Members of the W.A.: The. scrap books arrived in good condition last week, and L do wish to thank you for the gift. It was nice of you to do that work, and I know some child will enjoy these books, when1 am able to get out -in the country to see people and visit homes again, so again thank you for your interest and thought. We had a long cold ard stormy win- ter, it began the last of October and has 'kept it up steadily until this last week, when it_turned very mild and now the snow is gradually melting. We hope _it_will melt gradually, for there will not be tlie water and the terrific mud which_we had last year. I have put the car up until the roads are dry, so my work now is confined to Manning. ~ I enjoy it very much here, the peo- ple are grand to me, our cause is very small, as it has.to be built up from the bottom, but I do enjoy my Sun. day School and C,G.IT. Our Church has to have a basement put under it, and the parsonage also has to have a basement and be renovated; so there is a large building programme ahead of us, for the few who are interested. I am fortunate to be able to stay at the hospital residence and find the companionship and help of the nurses u great boost to me. The. hospital is run by the W.M.S. It is a twelve bed one, but too small now, for the coun- try is growing rapidly and being set- tled rapidly, also there are several oil crews here and that makes for a lot extra cases in the hospital. 1 know Mrs. Fisher so well, they are a grand couple, Thank you again, and 1 wish you every success and blessing in your work, Very sincerely, Etta Campbell. --- ow ew Blackstock Donald Johnston has purchased the John Griffin farm at Yelverton, and his brother Leslie is taking over the farm at, Cadmus, which Donald is leaving and which was formerly owner by Clarence Parr, of Bowman- ville.
