CASTOR REVIEW Meditorial By Rev. James Paul In an exclusive photograph taken for Look magazine, Idi Amin proudly posed with some of his children. The picture reveals no less than twenty four shining faces dazzling as diamonds around an unwholesome stature of a man. This photograph reminds me of the blatant hypocrisy of man in the face of what has been called The Year of the Child-1979. It seems unconceivable that one man can father over two dozen children and at the same time slaughter hundreds of others. Apart from the need to reaffirm the Judgement of God upon every perpetrator of evil, we need in this year 1979 to rekindle the love of God for our children. The bible clearly states, in Psalm 127:3;5, that "children are a gift from the Lord; happy is the man who has his quiver full of them."" We all have been entrusted as caretakers of the King's jewels. Each one is unique and priceless. Moreover, each one has been created with a God-shaped vacuum which can only be filled with the person of Jesus Christ. With this responsibility then, we cannot live Godless lives before them, nor can we treat them as second class citizens. It's a gruesome thought that Canada is never farther away than one generation from a complete moral and spiritual collapse. In this year of the child don't forget to teach the children that there is a loving God who has payed for their sin's curse and who can fill their life with joy and purpose. Let's not misuse these priceless jewels of the King. Kenmore and Russell Baptist Churches Minister: Rev.

W.I. term: harmonious Looking ahead and _ looking back were two happy thoughts shared by officers and members of the Russell Village Women's Institute, under the leadership of President Mrs. Richard Hamelin. The 1978-1979 term which con- cluded March 31, showed success both in the harmony and in the achievements of the branch. Reports of the past were presented at the April 3 meeting by Edna Curry, Diny Achtere- ekte, Judy Hubbard, Ada Latour, Lydia Nyenkamp, Georgie Gam- ble, and Eileen Hamelin. The Motto, 'Participation makes a good organization", was presented by Cherry Bekkers, and the roll call was the time of joining for the new term. The Institute welcomed some addi- tions to the roll, and pledged itself to the Institute welcome which each branch offers. Mrs. George E. McCaffrey, a member with life membership in both the branch and the district, and a past provincial board director, presided for the election and installation of offices, which resulted as follows:Past Presi- dent, Mrs. Robert W. Gamble; President, Mrs. Richard Hame- lin; 1st Vice President, Mrs. Lloyd Hay; 2nd Vice President, Mrs. Leo Bekkers; Secretary- Treasurer, Miss Edna W. Curry; District Director, Mrs. Norman Inglis; Alternate District Direc- tor, Mrs. John Achtereekte Branch Directors, Mrs. Robert Buchanan, Mrs. L. C. Herweyer, Mrs. Warren (Kay) Lake; Public Relations Officer, Mrs. Robert W. Gamble;. Committees: Agri- culture and Canadian Industries, Mrs. Robert Campbell and Mrs. John Achtereekte; Citizenship and World Affairs, Mrs. Ronald Hubbard and Mrs. Norman Inglis; Education and Cultural Activities, Mrs. Russell Latour and Mrs. Kennedy Cumming; Family and Consumer Affairs, Mrs. Rudolf Bols and Mrs. Robert W.

Refreshment con- veners were the hostesses with Mrs. Peter Romme, Mrs. Jack Twiname, and Mrs. Kennedy Cumming. Plans for the new term include further recognition of the Inter- national year of The Child, Family Unity month in May, donation to the Cancer Society, short courses including one on Nutrition May 17 at Bear Brook Centennial Hall, visit to Upper Canada Village and the Theatre and the Eastertime greetings to former members, members in Nursing homes, and shut-ins in our community. The '"Home and Country" motto of The Women's Institute is keenly thought about in the Russell Village Women's Institute, and the new term again finds the Branch members in Leadership in the work of the 4H Clubs.
