There was an average attendance of 92 which was almost equal to the enrolment. The theme this year was "Proclaiming Christ Our Peace" and from the Nursery Class to the Senior Class les- sons were taught by word and picture, showing that in Christ we are secure. We ask you to pray that the Holy Spirit will quicken the seed that was sown, that, through this school boys and girls shall confess Christ as Saviour and that some may be called to give their lives to go and proclaim His Name to those without hope.

Harry Hays To Open '69 International Plow Match to the big The Honorable Harry Hays, Federal Minister of Agriculture, has accepted an invitation to open the 1965 International Plowing Match on Wednesday, October 13th, at 2 p.m. The Match--is_ being held this year from October 13th to 16th at the Massey - Ferguson Farm, York County, Milliken, Ontario --adjoining the northern bound- ary of Metro, The last Match in York Coun- ty was in 1934 at Wexford, but the International Plowing Match originated in this county in 1913 on Sunnybrook Farm, so the big event is returning home to York this year. Preparations for the Mateh have been underway for many 'months now -- under the direc- tion of chairmen covering the various committees handling the varied aspects of the event. Bill Sutherland, the farm man- ager, planned crops as far back as two yers ago, so that sod and stubble would be available where needed. Since then, work has been underway in planning special events, the farmstead improvement competition, wag- on tours, parking and traffic, publicity and the county exhi- bit. From now on, there will be increasing acceleration in the work leading up opening day. Approximately 500 acres have been reserved for plowing com- petitions, parking and demon- strations of various kinds. It is expected that @bout 600 plow- men will take part and they will be competing for prizes having a total value of 315,000. Tented City will cover over 50 acres where over 300 exhibi- tors will be reserving space. Advance reservations indicate that a record in both number of exhibitors and the total space occupied, may be set at this year's International. On October 13 and 14, the On- tario Plowmen's Association, in co-operation with the York Cty. Local Committee, will be host to the Canadian Plowing Coun- cil in conducting the annual Canadian Championship contest, It is expected that eight Pro- vinces will enter teams. When the Honorable Harry Hays officially opens the Inter- national Plowing Match on Oct. 13th, all things point to the start of the biggest Match ever held--due partly to its proxim- ity to Metropolitan Toronto. Record attendance is anticipated from every province of Canada and from across the border. rounded up three items: Mrs. T. where she will enjoy a vacation. | Citizen's Prayer; Mrs. E.
