Reading Isaiah 64:1 3, Il Corinthians 4:1-7, Reverend Lougheed, in his opening remarks, said this is a happy occasion but it is also sad - there are many changes and many empty places. But we are all ministers in church - in the factory, in the home. We are all privileged to be a part of this great fellowship. Isaiah spoke of the Oaks of Right- eousness. We must grow up strong. So many command- ments are broken - it is so easy. In hard times (depres- sion years) we seem to recover the real things every generation needs - a recovery of faith. At Expo '67 in the Christian Pavilion there was a sign - The Light Has Shone in the Darkness and the Dark- ness Has Not Put it Out. Let us not lose heart but praclaim to the hurting world the Healing Power of Christ. In their ministry of song the choir sang three anthems - "Let the Whole World Know," "'i Know Where l'm Going" "Thank You, Lord".

We do not mention here all, the other young people, from other farming communities who did just as well, but we really wanted to express our appreciation of the honours brought to our area by these outstanding young people who live in our midst. They may not have won the top prize, by by completing their clubs they demonstrated determination and persistance, which is also success. In the 4 H Field Crops Section there is now an Agro- meteorology section. Three of our young people completed this project - Neil Taylor, Ron Vice and Janice Yellowlees, There was no particular award for the top winner in this club.

The pre- sentation of the Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce watch was made by Mr. Carl Zinn, manager of the Bow- manville branch. Is it any wonder that our community is proud of these young people? We wish them many more successes in life. NESTLETON Tiny Tot Shower On Saturday evening Mar- lene Skinner assisted by Jean Mitchell and Linda Butterley hosted a miscellaneous tiny tot shower to honor Mrs. G. Pelrine at her home in Caesarea. Fourteen ladies attended on this happy occa- sion and many dainty and colourful gifts were presented to the surprised Linda. Taken colpletely by surprise the honored guest thought tliat she was visiting her neighbour for a friendly Saturday night chat. She was delighted by her kind friends an expressed her appreciation for their generosity. Pot Luck Supper A most enjoyable Pot Luck supper was held on Saturday night in the United Church basement to welcome new teachers and the children of the Sunday School. About forty sat down to a delicious variety hot meal. Each lady provided a little and there was more than ample. There was no charge and this is appreci- ated in this period of inflation. A social get-acquainted period followed and Reverend Par- sons led in a sing-song Sunday Serviges (Presbytery) In the Presbyterian Church Sunday norning Mr. Brian Fraser chose "Whatever Hap- pened to Sin", as the topic for his message. There is a tendency to-day to try to avoid placing blame or accepting responsibility for wrong o- ing. We want a "No Fault" theology much like "No Fault" car insurance. But the Biblical faith tells us that sin is something man must face up to. He is responsible, under God for his actions and failure to act when he should. Tbe Gospel speaks directly to tbis human condition. We are offered the strength and sensi- tivity to accept our full responsibilities under God for tbe welfare of His Creation. Nestleton United Cburch Reverend J.A. Lougheed, Oshawa, was the guest speak- er on Sunday morning for the Rural Bowling Averages Francis Wotten 209.
