Courtice Couples Meet at Ebenezer 'i ýy Courtice Circuit Country Coup- dles Club held their get-to-gether in Ebenezer S.S. It was decided to hold ail future meetings in Eben- ezer as it is difficult to move Ping- SPong table, darts and various games from place to place. Walter Rundle led the couples in a lively sing-song, xvth Howard Cryderman, Howard Ormiston, and Cliffford Swallow taking part. President Wilff Brown extended a warm welcome 10 the new coup- les present. Programme was in charge off Clifford and Jes.sie Swallow, Eileen and Lloyd Down and Jean and Wallace Munday. Devotional was taken by Clifford Swallow, follo\ved by 'Hark the Herald Angels Sing". Quartette composed off George and Murray Osborne, Elmer Down and Bil Rundle giving several renditions was greatly appreciated and mer- ited praise and encouragement j ffrom Rev. Sam Henderson. Sam VanCamp introduced our guest speaker, Rev. S. R. Hend- ersoxi, the popular and muchi sought after young mninister from Trinity C hurch, Bowmanx-îllc. Touching briefly on Mr. H-ender- son's talk, hie began by saying tha.t every person needs 10 aim for a high goal. We are living in a generation off xast and difficult charges. Our xvhole liffe seems toi be wrapped rip in the gadgets sur- rounding us, whereby we become lost in ourselves and thoroughly dissatisffied. To escape this we seek varied amusements. For ex- ample, wc line up in queues in front off the theatre to see a movi e where we ýbecome lost in another life in a plot where everything always comes out right. Each per-1 son has a mind so filled with emo- tions off love, fear, hate, worry, etc., constantly warring with each other for supremacy which causes confusion. We ail think we are unique in ourselves with our problemns, but wve aIl are confronted with the same difficulties in day to day living. How cften 'affter a day has gone exceptionally well have we stopped to wonder if there was something we should have worrîed about. Forget yourselves and past regrets which are done and over with and make a fresh beginning. From a religious and psychologi- cal standpoint every person needs a goal to follow or man who is so 'finite in an infinite world becomes lost. Only by aiming high and with the help of God can we achieve this goal. Mr. Rundie thanked Mr. Hend- erson on his absorbing and inspir- ational talk hoping we might have the pleasure of hearing hlm again. Recreation and lunch was pro- vided by committee in charge. Next meeting on Jan. 12 in Eben- ezer. More couples are welcome. We are equipped with games to fi11 your needs off relaxation and amusement.
