The thermometer reading showed "cold" on Sunday morning, February l1th, but there was glorious sunshine, no wind and the roads leading to Welcome United Church were clear as in summertime. The usual congregation was present with Rev. W. Kennedy in charge. The theme for the morning's service was heal- ing and the different attitudes toward the same thing shown bv different people. For the children this was explained by a story of four men viewing Niagara Falls. An artist saw its beauty; a farmer saw water for a thirsty land; an engineer saw the source of power and a fourth saw the majesty of God's creation. In the two stories of Christ's healing read in the scripture, some men saw the breaking of sabbath laws made by man, instead of fulfilling of the command to love and help fellow men. Ushers were Messers George Tufford, Bruce Hendry, Ray Inch, and Harold Best. The choir's anthem concerned God's blessing of peace to his people. A pot of Azaleas added their beauty to the basket of red geraniums to brighten the church and Mr. and Mrs. Ken Symons greeted the congrega- tion, as well as Rev. Kennedy. On Tuesday, February 6th, Morrish Women's Institute met at the home of Mrs. Lorne Jones, Ward Street, Port Hope to conduct the regular business for the month and hear an interesting talk on African violet culture. Mrs. Eva Weyrauch of Campbell- croft belongs to the Port Hope Horticultural Society and brought a wealth of knowledge and experience to tell of different varieties and ways of caring for them to get the maximum bloom and enjoy- ment, from them. On Wednesday, February 7th, the ladies of local UCWs joined those of Port Hope to go in a chartered bus to Camp- bellford for the annual meet- ing of Cobourg Presbyterial, annual meeting. The speaker for the afternoon session was Mr. D. Nutter, Family and Children's Services, Port Hope. His topie was "the Battered and Abused Child". In this year of the child it can be only a successful one if action follows the knowledge gained from the talk and the film. Neither was pleasant to see or hear but necessary to know if anything we could do would help in unhappy situa- tions. Those attending from Welcome UCW were: Mesdames M. Payne, K. Dinner, E. Barrowclough, H. Best, H. Reeve, H. Darke, T. Wilson, G. Tifford, A. Ford, K. Symons, G. Byers, L. Farrow and Mrs. W. Kennedy. There was also a good attendance from Garden Hill and Canton. On Sunday afternoon, February llth there was a meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Carroll Nichols attended by members of the former church here to discuss the future of the building. Rev. W. and Mrs. Kennedy were present also, and some members of hydro staff. Following some further enquiries another meeting will be held on March il at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Murray Payne. Another well known life-long resident of Hope Township passed away last week at his home in Canton. Mr. Mont Bickle had lived to a good old age and his cheery disposition and active days were an inspiration to many younger people. We are glad to hear word of improvement in health for Mr. Harold Caswell of Port Hope, formerly a neighbour at Zipn. Harold had the misfortune to fall and fracture his leg a short time ago. and is recuperating in St. Joseph's Hospital, Peterborough. Roy Austin who with his family moved into his new home recently is confined to bed for a time to recover from back trouble and overstrain. We hope rest will provide the remedy needed. Bill Barrowclough and family of Peterborough spent Sunday with Harold Barrow- clough. The Barrowclough and Thorndyke families received word this past week of the death of Mrs. Catherine Knott of Camrose Aberta. Catherine Leathwood was born in Liver- pool, England and came to Wesleyville as a young girl to work at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Victor Thorndyke. George Knott, also a young boy from England, worked at the Simon Barrowclough home. These two married and went to Alberta in 1917. They always considered Wesley- ville their home and kept in touch through ail the years since. Her husband died some years ago. G ve. THE HEART FUND Have you those mid-winter blahs?
