arkinstall is also a physician and is particularly experienced in the treatment of women and children writing from winnipeg in a news despatch published in the kitchener newsrecord dave cross reports on the odd customs of mennonites claiming that these characteristics are gradually being dropped yet many of them we like very much the monnonites have been in this country for nearly 150 years not merely 75 years as the writer below infers cross article reads as follows seventyfive years ago the first mennonites came to canada to day a great number have been absorbed into the canadian way of life although a few still cling to centuriesold customs about 115c00 strong in canada with a large segment living in manitoba they are a striking con trast to other followers of the protestant faith origin of beard custom a highly religious sect most of their customs are observances of biblical phrases one of these adhered to closely by the extreme balderman sect is that all male members must wear beards this idiosyncrasy springs from the belief that the beard was given by god and therefore should not be shaved another custom in extreme groups there are 1g different sects is that only married members must wear beards a mennonite source said no feasible reason can be found for the strict rule among a few sects that no buttons be worn on clothes he felt it possible they cling to the mennonite expression those who have hooks and eyes will be saved by the lord this is taken to mean cloth hooks should be used not buttons originated in holland the mennonites originated in holland and switzerland moving to prussia and then russia grad ually shifting to new lands because of religious differences about 5000 mennonites were included in displaced persons groups coming to canada during the last two years in mennonite communities one family is in charge of all black smith work for the village while anothers chore might include working on the land these occupa tions are passed from one genera tion to the other however the custom of living together in one community is grad ually fading as the years pass more mennonites are buying their own farms obtaining college degrees and generally movini away from the one community locations because the mennonites are a strict religious group no one is baptized into the church until he or she is old enough to realize the importance of the step the bap tism service is usually held off until a person is between 1418 years old srxes sit apart in church the men and women sit in different sections of the church and the ministers are chosen from the organization one mennonite minister sum med up by saying it is only a matter of time before there will be only a small prac tically unnoticeable difference be tween the mennonites and

some excuse for not staying overtime he leaves harry to finish up naturally harrv resents be ing thus imposed on but he nourishes his resentment and soon becomes grouchy with everyone even his own family because of his irritation his work suffers how much better it would be if harry refused to be upset by these incidents or if he talked things over frankly with al or everybodys business by his boss and insisted on a fair deal so it is whenever anyone offends us we cannot live hap pily and do good work while smoldering with resentment we must learn to take these wrongs in our stride or get
