Bowmanville Mall Holds Successful Sidewalk Sale During Weekend Sandi Yeo, of Sandi's Fashions in the Bowmanville Mall, catches up on her reading while keeping an eye on her booth at the Bowmanville Mall sidewalk sale Saturday. Jaycees Fight Car Theft With Mail Exhibit This little fella was at the Bowmanville Mall on Saturday to give dad, Rod Read, of the Bowmanville Jaycee Club a hand with the "Jaycee Anti Car Theft Campaign." Club members distributed informative pamphlets outlining preventative measures to minimize the incidence of car theft. Excerpts from Manvers Township Council Meeting A twenty-five dollar grant was made to the Victoria County Farm Safety Council and a two hundred dollar grant was made to the Victoria County Federation of Agriculture for 1979. The Fire Chief for the Township of Manvers made a presentation to the Council, outlining proposed new equip- ment to be purchased, estimated costs for operation for 1979, and proposed plans to expand the existing Pontypool Fire Hall or build a new fire hall at the old D.H.O. lot location. So much money is available for fire protection each year and it is a matter of greatest benefit. Another meeting with the Fire Chief will be held at a later date. A wrecking license for Mr. Tomlinson was referred to the Victoria County Planner, Mr. David Johnston, for advice on the matter. John Lennox is to be contacted to receive compen- sation for a sheep killing in the amount of $175.00. The killer dogs came from the lands owned by Mr. Lennox. The gravel and sand contract awarded to Fred Nelson and Sons, on a group basis with South Monaghan, North Monaghan, Cavan, Manvers Townships, plus the Village of Millbrook partici- pating, was approved by the Manvers Township Council. Applicationwas made to the Ministry of Transportation and Communications to have appropriate signs erected on No. 35 Highway and 7A Highway (North Junction) to indicate the direction of Manvers Community Centre and Arena. Application also be made to erect a sign (Notice of events) on the highway right- of-way, directly in front of the arena on 7A Highway. Tenders for the supplying of a six ton diesel truck equipped with dump body, hoist and snow harness close at 12 noon, March 27, 1979. Tenders to be opened at 7:30 p.m. March 27, 1979 in the Council Chambers. Permission was granted to Don McQuaig to move a small Panibode storage shed to his property in Lot 19 Con. 5, Township of Manvers, but shed is not to be used for human habitation. Messrs. Gerry Meharg and Larry Doble called on the Council to discuss the roads and water system in the Pontypool Subdivision. Glitter and colour were outstanding on the ice at the Memorial Centre on Sunday afternoon as fifty-two Golden Star senior citizens attended the fascinating Ice Capades. Variety in performances and beauty in costumes satisfied young and old as the skaters held the interest throughout the show. Sasha Kuchiki, former skating champion of Japan, revealed dramatic and aggressive skating and he concluded his act with an ancient Indian deer dance. Wendy Bruge, who won the Ladies' Gold Medal at the 1977 World Professional Championships in Spain, and Sharon Burey, o is a four-time Figure Skating Champion from Australia, gave us pleasure in their many skating skills. Lorene and Donny Mitchell, 1975 U.S. National Junior Pair Champions, and the funny and talented duo of Bob Mac and Bob Barrickman were a delight to everyone. The two Bobs put Darolyn Prior through a series of bending, twisting, and twirls that made one wonder how her muscles could stay intact. The cartoon characters were especially enjoyed by the young, as they shook hands with the many eager children. The Miss Diana Restaurant coped graciously and patient- ly with the many bus loads as well as individuals who visited thein dining areas and enjoyed their delicious meal. Winners of the cook books at the Pancake Supper at the United Church were Jane White, Reta Neals and Carl Smith. St. Paul's Anglican Canon Dyer used the Peni- tential Service on Sunday when he spoke on "Making a Choice"- taking a chance. Life is a gamble. Every step, every word we speak, involves chance. Friendship, our job, our happiness, our security is a chance. We realize today even in our faith there is a choice, as our Anglican Church, at present, is going through a concern. More and more we are being hit by the need to take a chance; a chance for better health, security, wealth, and even to find peace of mind. Science has quite an influence e.g. eclipse, laws in order of nature, and we're amazed by it al, and yet man can't make a right choice on his own. During Lent we think of our Lord and His ministry, of his temptation in the wilderness when He had to make three choices, but He relied on scripture or God's word. God's gift to us is a unique opportunity of making the right choice in our lives. We too, are going to have tempta- tions but we must have enough knowledge, enough dedica- tion, to make the right choice. God,-in His.love, bas given us a free will, but we have to make the choice. Teenagers are invited to a gathering to be held at St. Thomas' Parish Hall on Fri. evening, March 30th at 7:30 p.m. There will be music, fun, refreshments with time to discuss the formation of a Youth Group. Members of the Anglican Paris Get-together will meet on Mon., April 2nd at 8 p.m. to set the date to plan a social evening. The committee consists of Marilyn Wright, Reta Johnson, Yvonne Shultz, June Beuttner, Joe and Betty Lunn, Bill and Aileen Hurst, Harry and Joy McCamus, Chris and Debby Wood, Margaret and Mel Wood. Mrs. Wainwright spent Wednesday and Thursday in Toronto with ber son and daughter-in-law and family. United Church "Your task - to build a better world." God said. I answered, "How? This world is such a large, vast place, So Complicated now! and I so small and useless am- There's nothing I can do!" But God, in all is wisdom, said, "Just build a better you!" Mr. Graham chose another enemy of Jesus, Caiaphas, as the subject of his sermon. Caiaphas was the Pharisees high priest and a politician. Jesus had just raised Lazarus from death. Caiaphas said, "Let us pretend He is a real danger to us, sure He is innocent but we can make Him look guilty." Caiaphus was like many of us are.

But God used Caiaphas to prove bis grandeur and power but ii resurrecting His Son He gave us a way to salvation. Presbyterial Report The Presbyterial of Peter- borough met in George St. United Church on Feb. 21 at the call of the chairman, Rev. Robt. Munro. During the delicious meal an official "send-off" was given to Rev. Gerald Hofsetter who bas been moved to Trinity United, Guelph. Dr. Gilmour Smith led in a short worship and an obituary for Rev. Austin Huston. Vacancies in Norwood- Keene, Grace, St. Andrew's were announced, and one full and one vart time minister is needed for Maynooth. On request of the Bethany Official Board, Mr. Wilmer Graham was approved for another year and a supervis- ing minister will be appointed. Rev. Hofsetter will be replac- ed as secretary by Miss Helen Wright. A "Festival of Faith" will be held at Trent University, June 15 - 17. It is hoped that each congregation wil send at least 3 persons, and posters and banners will be greatly appreciated. In the Ladies' bowling Gail Cameron was high single with 242 and Joan Bedford was runner-up with 221. These two ladies won the double scores too with 452 and 404, respectively. U.C.W. The president, Mrs. Georgina Scott, opened the meeting with a poem "What's Your Answer?" Mrs. Frances Vincent gave the treasurer's report and the correspondence consisted of thank you notes from Mr. and Mrs. Frost and some registration cards for the Presbytery "Festival of Faith" on June 15-17th. Easter bonnets made from The kitchen utensils are to be made and worn at the next meeting. Two books on devotion were added to the library, and seventy-five booklets on Memories are to be sold. Mrs. Sandra Smith was in charge of the worship and programme, the theme being "Missions in Canada". What are missions? Mission is servant-hood. Mrs. Alice Neals read a report of a journey on board a mission ship - The Thomas Crosby V, which travelled from Vancouver to Port Simpson and made 40 calls at light bouses, Indian villages, logging camps, abandoned canneries, isolated families etc. along the coast, and ministered to groups of people, which proved the church is concerned with every individual at every stage of his or her life. However, missions cannot function without financial aid, so an appeal is forthwith for the cause. A number of students will have a wonderful "Winter Break", when they have the opportunity of a trip to Mexico. This could be a most educational tour and pupils should learn first hand information about this southern country. Congratulations, Fiona!
