Many of those who attend- ded **Grace" Church on Sun- day were surprised to see no usual entry steps. The pre- vious Sunday it had been decided to remove the old crumbling steps and instal new ones. Accordingly, work proceeded immediate- ly. We owe much to Clarence Carter who obtained the advice and planned estimate from Max Stichmann who TRL hh 3 TRY IRM rived, and Tm % aisle ols io: Recently arrangements were made for a group of Indian children to attend the public school in a northern Ontario town. The principal of the school in the town was _aware that Indian children sometimes had arough time at the hands of other students, and to try to forestall this kind of situation, he called in a Human Rights Commission counsellor to talk to the other children. The 'counsellor asked the children if any of them had ever moved to a new school, and what they thought it would feel like if they were the strangers. In this way he helped them understand how the Indian children would be feeling when they ar- the integration proceeded relatively smoothly. Community counselling is one of the major roles of your Ontario Human Rights Commission. We hold seminars and dis- cussions with police in areas where there are communication barriers between them and minority groups, to help relieve ten- Government of Ontario William G. Davis, Premier People problems can be serious problems. This is what Ontario is doing to help solve them in advance. sion and promote mutual understanding. We attend meetings of immigrants and native-born minority groups to explain to them both their rights under the legislation and their responsibilities as citizens of this Province. We also help bring people into contact with local agencies like home-and-school groups, community and government agen- cies, and churches, which are available to help but which many know exist. Wherever * based on race, language, colour or creed, the Human Rights Commission is available to generate discussion and motivate people to develop understanding and re- spect for the other's point of view. Our job is to help bring people together and encourage healthier among all groups.

The Jr. Choir will also sing at the Decoration Service the same day at Prince Albert Cemetery. Rev. Pogue told the child- ren that since Israel is. so much in the news lately -he" had decided to take a series of studies on the heroes of Israel. Naturally he started with Moses who led the Israelites into the promised land and also gave the people the laws which are basic for the laws for people of the Western world. As the congregation was saddened by the loss of one of its most faithful adherents, it seemed coincidental that Rev. Pogue had chosen a sermon that should follow Easter and the passing of life. We see death as a cycle of new life and growth. Last Wednesday evening the ""Head" met at the home of Mrs. Alva Thompson. We were so pleased to have Mrs. Eastwood who appears to be completely revived from her period of ill health. We also welcomed our guest, Mrs. Helen Fedyk. Devotional period was conducted by Alva Thomp- son, Helen Hortop and a skit by Reta Wilson, Betty Read- er, Irene Carter, Alva and Helen. It represented our generoisity in tipping the expected amount in restau- . rants as if it were a tithe but our reluctance to consider tithing for the collection plate at church. For the roll call we were asked to name our favourite method of relaxing, which is considered a very necessary part of life. We received appreciation from Joel Aldred on behalf of * his family for lunch serviced 'at the time of his father's passing. There was also a lovely card of appreciation from the recent bride and groom Elaine and Gordon i News from Scugog Island Lunn. A card of appreciation from Mrs. Eastwood for Best Wishes during her illness. We shall gratefully acknow- ledge a sizeable donation for services rendered by the U.CW.

He has already done a fine job. Our members who have been suffering from various discomforts are Cammie Samells, Marion Hughes and Mabel Graham. We were pleased to hear that the profits from the Hospital Spring Fair were $623. Plans are well under way to renovate the Washroom at the "Head" Church. John Pearce has very Kindly offered his services. It is nice to remember that Sam, Arnold and Chris Hardy built it and Jim Wilson donated the flooring. Our near future projects are a Bake Sale at the "Head" Museum Church, June 22 at 2 p.m. and a Strawberry Supper with "Grace" U.C.W. at "Grace" Church, Wednesday, July 3. Watch the Coming Events. For relaxation Reta Wil- son conducted a contest in which she gave points for various items in our purses. As a result Beryl Pearce and Bonnie Gerrow won 2 Breathing Plant Pots. The next meeting will be a week late July 10 at the home of Mrs. Joyce Heayn.
