Sedgwick, assistant gen- eral manager of the Royal Bank of Canada, has accepted the ap- pointment of honorary treasurer of the Ajax Pickering Township Hospital campaign for $60,000. Many Interested In Bible Study AJA X-- The Gospel Centre Y.P. chartered a bus and attended the Dr. Hendley evangelistic meeting on Friday night. The Wednesday night prayer, praise and Bible study meeting was well attended and a time of blessing. Some have described this meeting as a spirit- ual oasis in a desert of worldliness. The morning message of the pas- tor, following the well attended Bible school period, was an expesi- tion of the last chapter of the Book of Jonah. S "Remember Lot's Wife" was the theme of the message at the eve- ning service. It was emphasized by the speaker that these words of Jesus are a part of a solemn warn- ing of certain judgment that will come upon the wicked, Godless, and Christ -- rejecting civilization of the last days, which days are even now upon us. The inconsisten- cles of Lot, a professed believer, and even of faithful Abraham, may have influenced Lot's wife and fam- ily to disregard the warning of God's messengers. Nevertheless Lot's wife is inexcusable for look- ing back in Jonging desire for the things of the world that God had marked for judgment. The perish- ing multitudes of Sodo mandGo m- orrah are a picture of the judgment of the Holy God upon the unsaved multitudes whom the Bible de- scribes as those who have not the love of the truth. Services on the Lord's Day and throughout the week at regular imes. The morning service each Sunday begins with a bright cheery Bible school for all ages at 10.15. The evening service is at 7.00.

Andrews, the Arts and Crafts Director of the YWCA slid a shuttle ' back and forth, pumped a few foot levers, pulled the weav- ing frame firmly and somehow the single skeins of yarn were in- explicably turned into a solid piece of finely-grained cloth. Harry Law and Bernie Goleski were in charge of the photography exhibit where the ABC's of photog- raphy were displayed from the negative up. Several excellent prints from the Oshawa Camera Club were on view and some color slides were shown. It's not hard to understand what attracts the devotees of the pot-- tery art. Requiring basically two of the most fundamental elements, fire and earth, the craft has all the beauty and fascination of sim- plicity. smoothly, 8 ly turning wheel is one of man's simplest, machines. And the hum- an hands are at once more simple and more complex and dexterous than any machine. The bundle of clay is placed on the revolving wheel, a slight Jae sure from the Harlander finger and the clay molds itself into a classic curving design. Almost magically, the master workers elongated the clay into a slender vase or shortened it again into a squat furrowed flower pot. Almost magically, but not quite. For behind the magic are years of study in Bavaria and Stuttgart and more years of patient prac- tice and apprenticeship. DEMANDING CRAFT Similarly puppetry is a very de- mal craft. The stage show that delighted the spectators is on- the poetry of the art. The two emonstrators John McInnes and John Ryckman are masters of ver-- satility. They spend hours carv out the hands and feet of miniature models. They have to choose the cast for the head, wig it and assemble it with the other parts of the body.

PROJECT PRAISED The official opening of the Cras In Action project last night was conducted by D. O. Butler of the Community Programs Branch of the Department of Education.
