has been the myth of Christian unity Detractors see 10 churches io different approaches and hear 10 varying stories then they are told about Christian unity and reality fades into the blue smoke of mythology These same people notice other things too They see a United Church on the r block standing empty on Sunday afternoon while a newly organized Baptist congregation Is meeting in a school auditorium or someone house They see a Catholic church going without Sunday school facilities while an Anglican congregation can display elaborate Christian education facilities to rival a small school It t perhaps in this spirit that f district denominations jo hands in a common project at the site of the new town of Erin Mills between Brampton and Streetsvlllc But the project can help but put the lie to some of the criticism and perhaps the development of church fa it The Competition Game For the first time In Canada five denominations Anglicans Baptists Presbyterians United Churches and the Christian Church Disciples of Christ church campus The plan involves the grouping of church facilities on one site to permit independent programs while the five share the costs and use of the facilities When one realizes Just how entrenched our various churches were In their own little worlds Just a few years ago this is an almost phenomenal development We can foresee the answer to church educational facilities religious colleges meeting halls and social facilities coming out of this concept The optimism with which the five churches approach this project almost assures its success from the start Quite frankly we d like to see similar thinking adopted without the of a common site in towns such as Brampton and Some facilities are shared now but the arrangement could be carried through to a much larger degree We think we re well on our way now Brampton Daily Times Turning Bock Tim CREAMERY STAFF IN Many of the older Georgetown residents will remember the Georgetown Creamery which Is

Eight years In the ng and based on a survey or IS athletes the Tutko study shows in part Successful athletes while highly organized and respectful of author ly had a law need to take care of others and a tow need far affiliation Many athletes were so anxious to succeed that they displayed severe emotional reaction to stress Competition seem to build character they found and added It doesn t even require much more than a minimally Integrated personality Such revelations thanks to the locker room exposes of J m and Dave Meggy cay and the public hi jinks of swinger Joe Nam a hardly come as a surprise They undoubtedly apply to adult athletes but what about the kids Well if athletics t building character in youngsters at least they are helping to keep them out of trouble right Mr and Mr Tutko Times Womens Magazines Give Me A Giant Inferiority Complex Super that a what they arc Maybe even a little bit dangerous In their way Iti women magazines I m talking about What a long way they come From being the echoes of the souls of propriety they oomph themselves Into the hidden under the mattress type of literature that teenagers of my day used to protect their mothers from And maybe they still should If they knew what was good for them I bet there has been many an angry confrontation between teenager and parents after mother has read all about the goings on at university and even high school in her favourite women magazine Which adds another adjective to my list Informative What happening to our children Is of course a natural for reader interest And so Is what happening to

to swallow hook line and sinker an article headed Summer Entertaining a Breeze Well all I can say after reading it is that their idea of entertaining may be a breeze for some people but for me it would be more like a ay clone First of all of course the article advises you to take the pains to have a suitable selling for your little informal party Sets the mood you know So if you don t have a proper out door buffet table just use a couple of old doors set them up on trestles you re sure to have some lurking in basement corner and presto after you ve sewn yourself a set of matching napkins and table cloth ana made the centrepiece you re In business Almost Don t forget the chandeliers Just whip them up out of foil pic plates and hurricane lampshades card board paint and glue Now you re read to call the electrician to wire your backyard for them and while he busy at that you can start preparing the food Just a few little marinated ihls and that slathered with homemade barboque sauce plus cool salads and little goodies like pickled stuffed eggs hot yeast breads and a mountainous fruit platter Illustrated bursting with those impossible for me to make melon balls These are all make to be done In the cool of the early morning hours the day of the party And NOW unflustered and tresh a daisy you are ready to greet and enjoy entertaining your guests Ha Articles like that could well sound the death knell of summer entertaining Come to think of it I guess the reason I seem to be complaining Is that women magazines give me a giant Inferiority complex I Just can measure up in either
