Original Toronto Star caption: Handmade crafts and great food are always the big attractions at the annual Mennonite Relief Sale at New Hamburg. At this year's sale, which takes place next Saturday, a special feature will be a display of crafts from the areas of the world to which the Mennonite Central Committee relief organization sends aid. At the committee's centre in Kitchener, Adeline Brenneman, left, and Irma Lichti sort out some of the craft work from Bangladesh, one of countries which benefits from the sale.
