With an alarming 20% increase in drownings last year, the need to make people aware of safe and sane water practices is as great as ever.

Through proper leadership local children, teens and adults will have the opportunity to learn more about safe water practices. If you want more information on the swimming scene call us at 3542. BIBLE SOCIETY SECRETARY VISITS » Rev. Ralph S. Magee, secretary for tae Northern Ontario Branch of the Canadian Bible Society, was a recent visitor to the Community Church. He had an excellent display of books and colourful posters. The sole purpose of the Bible Society is to make the Bible or single scriptures available to everyone; sometimes they are sold much be- low cost. They work hand in hand will all churches. The work began I69 years ago. I500 tranla- tions have been printed in one or more books and in many languages the complete Bible. There are over I000 languages still untouched. Two thirds of the people of the world are living on an income of $I00 - $I50. a year. It is to these people they provide Bibles much below cost. Northern Ontario is aiming to raise $4000. to supply Bibles for the Swahili language in Africa. A dime card holds 20 dimes, an easy way to save toward reaching this goal. $2.00 for complete books or 4000 single scriptures. The film "Serango Harvest" featured *he great extent of eye surgery carried out in that area of India. Plan to attend next year. The film will be on over Canadian North, centered around the Copper Eskimo translation. The childrens choir under the leadership of Mrs. McKague sang a new version of "Jesus Loves Me". It is a joy to listen to such an enthusiastic group. As a point of interest, Bruce Marsh well known CBC announcer, narrater of the film and heard on Bible Society spot announcements on T.V. and radio donates any time spent on this cause. el All T.V. and radio time is free to the Bible Society; this would amount to approximately 3 $400,000. per year across Canada.
