Work In Courts Address Theme The St. Andrew's United Church Men held their first dinner meeting of the fall sea- son recently with Rev. J. H. Hodgson, chaplain to the Metro- politan Police Courts, as the speaker. His theme was 'The Other Side of Life'. In his address, Mr. Hodgson told of a typical day in the cells where, he said, he tries to meet the first needs of the jinmates. One of his major roles is to try and keep these men from becoming bitter toward Church and Society. "The philosophy for which Ro- tary stands can save the world if-its members will take advan- tage of the opportunities it of- fers to promote international un- derstanding throughout the world," Rotarian Robert Day, of Toronto, governor of Dis- trict 707, Rotary international told members of, the Rotary Club at their Monday luncheon meeting. The governor, who was pay- ing his official visit to the club, praised the club on the work it has. done since it re- ceived its charter in 1920. He said the reports presented at a club assembly Sunday night were the best he had received during his visits to district clubs. He also congratulated the club in the success of its Friendhip Day and on the fact that it is now rated as a 200 . cent Rotary Foundation ub. EXAMINE LIVES ' In his talk, Rotarian Day urged the members to take a new look at Rotary in their daily lives and at the commun- ity in. which they live. International Rotary takes on a new. meaning all the time, he said. It was not until after the First World. War that Rotary really started to flourish. At that time Rotary was confined to the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom; but today there are 11,594 clubs in 129 countries. For that reason Ro- tary is in a position to meet the challenge of the atomic age. NET EARNINGS Mr, Hodgson believes he was called to do this work and does not think that capital punish- ment serves the purpose it should. Even though he is given a list of United Church people when he goes into the detention area he deals with every denomination. ute to judiciary, police and to other officials for the help and co-operation they have given him. A short. question and answer period followed Mr. Hodgson's address. Married Couples Hold Retreat Recently 25 couples from the French sectior of the parish of St. Mary of the People partici- pated in a closed retreat for married couples preached at the Queen of Apostles Retreat House, in Port Credit.
