Thank you, Marshall and Ken. My mother's 1930 high school yearbook was replete with swastikas. I think the theme was Hiawatha, which fits with the Canadian link. 

 

Our Lindsay UMC sermon this morning, was on the hymn " When Peace Like a River". Such an interesting story. Here's the link if anyone is interested:

I've been writing the story of our first RS-1(1967) and sharing it in my weekly writers workshop. The two Hindus in the group don't have a clue what it's about. The Catholic and Southern Baptist ladies are fascinated.

 

Grace and peace,

World-wide in the 30s the Swastika was a symbol of friendship.

Scouts in Canada wore it.

Reversed, it became a Nazi symbol.

BTW, the latest courtroom added to the building was finished in 1935 and has swastikas carved into the ceiling! Big clue about some hidden values ...
