Canada Mission, June 23, 1942. Dear Friends, A holiday would not seem quite complete without witing you a letter. We are now at the coast having a month's rest and a change of air and altitude. I for- got to look up the date of the last circular letter which we wrote, as I intended to do just before leav- ing fpr holidays. Now I do nôt know just wbat news it contained 50 I shaîl not try to make this a summary o! our doings since we last wrote, but rather a littie account of a Leaders' Camp that we had at Chissamba from May 14-19. East year we ventured into new fields of work by having two short schoois for Boys' leaders in wbich we taugbt botb camp and village programs. Tbis year we decided to carry it further by hav- ing a camp to train those who are to lead our Boys' camps this dry season. AIl the seven mission stations of our United Church of Canada and the American Board were invited to send their leaders if they wished. Four o! them took advantage of the offer,-the tbree Canadian stations and Chilesso. There were 36 young leaders in tbe camp. It is only during the last few years that any of our native pastors bave ventured to conduct Boys' camps witbout a missionary present. This year we are going stili furtber by choos- ing young laymen to lead some o! the camps. At some the African pastor or the missionary may only look in for a couple of days. At the Leaders' Camp we tried to teach nearly everytbing by demonstration. The camp was built according to a design that we gave out as a model. Don't forget that our "tents" are grass buildings, usuaily three in num- ber arranged in the form of a 1U"1. There is no fear of rain until September. We taught the Bible lessqns that; will be used in the Boys' camps later,-one set for the older boys on the require- ments o! a good "Traveller or the Christian Trail" and anotber for the younger boys on "Travel- lers of Olden Times who sougbt the Trail of God." It is difficult to make a literal translation, but our Boys' group is called some- tbing like "The Christian Travel- lers" and is subdivided into "lThose who seek the Trail," "The Followers" and "The Messengers.' It is an adaptation of the C.S.E.T., Boy Scout and 4-H programs. We gave out programs of worsbip for both mornîng and evening anc used some of tbem at the Leaders' Camp itself. Two periods per day were spent iearning new boys' group and camp songs. ThesE people do love to sing! New games also bad their place. OnE that we taught was Newcomb,a simplification of Volîcybail thai I iearned from a paper sent oui by our Boys' Work Secretary in Toronto. Singing games are als< very popular bere even wber boys play by tbemselves. Mrs Ferguson taugbt First Aid an lessons on village bealth, the lat- ter oeing for older boys wbo havi bad first aid teacbing in formie: years. Our agricuitural teacher,o young man who was trained ai Currie Institute, heiped me tc Iwork out a iist of projects ir iAgriculture for members o! eacl age group, which he taught to thE camp leaders so that tbey may introduce themn whiie in camp this year. Then of course thE Opening and Ciosing CeremonieE bad to be demonstrated. We anE using practicaily the same oneE as Iast year, - torch ceremonie. wbicb are symbolic o! the faci that our program is centred fi Christ and that we must pass or to others that whicb we receivt in camp. I had to supervise the arrangini o! a camp kitchen as we did noi have time to cook our food in- dividually. Stover, the young man who belped me in Dondi area iast year, came a few dayE early and heiped prepare mater- ils and direct the camP aiong with Artur Ruben (Artbur Reu- ben) the one who is, helping ME at Chissamba this year. In Chissamba area we plan tc have three camps beginning thE twentieth of July. I hope to visit them ail. We bave been at Chissamba since February and expect to stay on here indefinitely if conditions permit. We are very thankful that our work stili goes on as usual in this part o! the world, We join witb you in prayer thal the "Prince of Peace" May yet be given bis true place in thE lives o! men and among nations, Ratepayers Notice: Sorry to have to bning you out, but I am offering my services to you and hope you will be able to find time to come up and gîve me your vote and influence. I can assure you I will serve you faitb- fully as in the past. W. J. Martyn, Councillor. To the Electorates of the Town of Bowmanville, Ladies and Gentlemen: During the past year it bas been a great pleasure for me to act as one of your representatives on the Town Council. I bave tried to carry out the duties to tbé best of my ability, and in the best in- terests o! the town. Once more, on Monday, Dec. 7, we shahl go to the polîs, and again 1 shahl offer mny services as Coun- cillor. I would appreciate your' full support on this day. Anyone who desires transportation kindly phone 2249. Yours sincerely, Owen Nicholas. To the Electors of Bowmanvilie: A year ago a large number of my friends were kind enougb to vote for me in the municipal election, for this I thank you. During the year I have given at- tention to your interests and tried to obtain a knowledge of the business of the Council. I sbould like to serve you for another year and respectfully request your support in the coming election to the Town Council. For motors telephone 668. Sincerely, Arley W. G. Northcutt. To the Electors of the Town of Bowmanville: Having served one year in Council I bave again been nomi- natpd and offer my services. I bave been a property owner and taxpayer for 31 years and the knowledge I have gained tbe past year would enable me furtber to do the best I can, if elected, for ail interests o! the Town of Bow- manville. John H. Gianville. To the Electors of Bowmanville, Ladies and Gentlemen: At the request of many citizens I bave again accepted tbe nomina- tion for Deputy-Reeve of Bow- manville in 1943. Having quali- fied for this position I respect- fully solicit your support at tbe poils on Monday, December 7th. While not anxious for public of- fice it is my sincere opinion that experienced men are best able to maintain our municipal affairs in their present healthy condition. As stated by Acting-Mayor C. G. Morris in this paper two weeks ago, an election this war year was an unnecessary expenise to load on the taxpayers of Bowmanvilie. On bebaîf of ail members of the 1942 council who have again of- fered their services, I trust that the electors will show in no un- certain manner that they resent the forcing o! an election this year-those responsible for this election would be poorly quali- fied to support the "Economy programme" o! your 1942 Council. With best wishes for the Xmas tseason, I remain, t Yours sincerely, W. J. Challis, Deputy-Reeve. To the Electors o! the Town of Bowmanville, Ladies and Gentlemen: bHaving bad eight (8) years' ex perience in Council work in Bowmanviîle, I solicit your vote rand influence for Deputy Reeve, -believing that I can be of real tservice to the town in that capac- t ity. If elected, I shall at ail times Swork for the best interests o! Bowmanville. Yours faithfully, 0 S. Little. Ladies and Gentlemen: Having again been nominated for Council, I offer my services. Altbougb not a large taxpayer, I consider myseif witb the majority of taxpayers wbo bave attained their property througb their own efforts, therefore appreciating tbe value of it. My hope is that in the near future the earnings of tbe working class will enable them ail to be- come home owners, giving tbem more interest in town elections. I Ao not believe in tbe policy of discrimination against other can- didates, regardless of what re- ligion, organization, fraternal soc- iety or political groups to wbicb they may belong. My opinion is that if a candidate doubts his ability to win on bis menit be should not qualify. As a resident of the Town of Bowmanville for over 30 years and a taxpayer for 15 years, I ask your support at the poîîs on Mon- day. If eiected I will fulfil my duties to the best of my ability for al concerned. Sincerely,N.Alsn If he says be can't, drop him; If be says be'll try, consider bim; If he says be wiil, bire bim.

Y ou '11 Appreciate Their Warmth ON COLD DAYS According to Dr. Victor G. Heiser, the three great enemies of rnankind are bemorrhage, shock and infection. He tells us tbe fol- lowing, wbich sbould be excep- tionally interesting to blood don- ors. Perbaps the most insidious and most difficult to treat of the tbree is shock. It is a well-known killer in war and in peace. Men bave died of it wbile being treated for their wounds, as surgeons looked on belplessly. However, science has recently been acbieving more success in its figbt against sbock. The magic is in giving the victim a trans- fusion of blood plasma, tbe liquid part of buman blood, to replace that lost in the peculiar condi- tion of sbock. Shock Is State of Near Death Severe injury or frigbt can re- i suit in this state of shock, or near death. The "insuit" to the nerv- ous system. of the victim causes loss of control over the blood vessels, which relax and fail to do their duty. This will be acC'ompanied by a drop in blood pressure. Tbe cir- culation stagnates, tbe blood col- lects in tbe abdomen and tbe body becomes cold. Tbe beart beats rapidly but weakly in its frantic effort to restore tbe circulation. Worst of ail, tbe liquid part of tbe blood itself begins to leak out tbrougb tbe walls of tbe blood vessels into the tissues. Athougb there is no visible bleeding as in tbe ordinary sense, tbe blood nevertbeless slowly seeps away. And unless tbis leak- age is stopped or the lost plasma repiaced. the near-deatb of shock may turn into real deatb. Blood Banks Saving Lives Blood Banks store blood plasma for emergencies wben the blood liquid lost. internally in sbock must be replaced by transfusion of the life-saving blood plasma. The blood donated by donors is treated to eliminate all but tbe plasma. Then it is stored or sbip- ped in iiquid forma or as a dry 'powder, to distant battle areas and to civilian bospitals. The blood bank of life-saving plasma is ready to cbeat deatb in tbe event of sbock-for every soldier THE STATESMAN NOW SOLD AT THESE STORES Newcastle: Anderson's Drug. Hampton: G. A. Barron & Son.
