Epsom-Utica United Church is supporting the Canadian Foodgrains Bank by renting 35 acres of land to be sprayed and ploughed this fall in prepa- ration for sowing and planting corn next spring. The cost, without donations or volun- teers, would be about $4,000. Corn fertilizer, spray and truck- ing is to be realized through gifts of cash. In the past, this area has been part of the group that bagged and shipped 30,000 bags of corn overseas, a chris- tian response to world hunger. All money raised for this project will go to the Canadian Foodgrains Bank in Winnipeg. For further information, con- tact Ross Evans, Don Asling or Arnold Kerry.

Lloyd don't be in a hurry to get back to work, the business is well established. Good luck! From an editorial point of view I would like to say that in this country we are innocent until found guilty by a judge or jury. Each day our TV or papers show pictures of an ac- - cused getting in or out of a police vehicle long before they even see a judge for a trial. Or in major cases be- fore they have a prelimi- nary hearing to see if there is sufficient evidence for a trial. Remember in recent times we have had two young men wrongly in prison for over 10 years. Lets not mistake police work with news propagan- da. That person taken in for questioning might be your son or daughter. - Pine Ridge Garden Club reports bus number two is getting filled. If you want to go with us call Shirley Love 986-5330. Joke of the Week Two fellows talking dur- ing their coffee break. One said "My wife and I argue a lot. She's very touchy, the least little thing sets her off." You're lucky his mate said, Mines a self starter. Saying of the Week Knowledge comes, but wisdom lingers. It may not be difficult to store up in the mind a vast quantity of facts within a compara- tively short time, but the ability to form judgment requires the severe disci- pline of hard work and the tempering heat of experi- ence and maturity.
