ENNISKILLEN On Sunday St. Patrick's Day our Community, with its genuine Irish name, showed its determination by paying no heed to wind and snow and filled the Church pews to participate in a special ser- vice viz: The Sacrament of -Baptism. Augmenting the us- ual congregations were loeal and visiting grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, and friends of three wee people who were baptized, Little Allison Anne, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Daniel Heard, Little Darryl John, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. James MacKenzie, Little Jeffrey Dwayne, infant son of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Beckett. The Jr. Congregation led by Mrs. R. Virtue were requested by our minister to pause and surround the Bap- tismal Font and observe the ceremony on their way to the S.S. room. The sacred event had interest and responsibility for all in attendance as parents, members of Session e.g. Elders Edgar Wright, Allan Werry, Keith Ferguson, Ross Ashton, Keith McGill, Walter Blackburn, and Jessie Slemon, also the congregation accepted a pledge to be concerned always for the spiritual nurture of the three little innocent children brought into our Church family. The Sr. Choir and leader as always, had a splendid musical message in their Anthem "At the Cross", with a duet in the alto section by Mesdames I. Sharp and L. Bigby. Our minister's sermon topic, "We Cannot Love Jesus and Our Sins", showed clearly a choice we have and must make to place God in the centre of our lives. Jesus, the revolutionary in His attitude to a "Cover up" by the Church, awaits entry and Rev. Bigby recommended that we do it in this Lenten Season. The S.S. session had an unexpected treat in its open- ing worship which was led by Ex-Superintendent Edgar Wright with pianist Brian McGill. We hope for a rapid recovery for our Sup t. Mrs. W. Bowman, who sufferedthe misfortune of a fall and was detained in ber home. May we mention briefly a few success- ful past meetings.

YELVERTON Pleased to report that word bas been received by the Victoria County Road Dept. from the Ontario Dept. of Transportation and Commun- ication that no further action will be taken to revert 7A Highway to County status due to the resentment displayed by local residents to such proposed action. We express our gratitude to Mr. Alex Carruthers, Durham M.P.P. for his assistance in opposing this transfer. Despite any comments by certain indivi- duals to the contrary, the standards of maintenance and service provided by the Ont- ario Dept. of Transportation and Communication are con- sidera'bly superior to that possible for the counties to supply with their limited budget, equipment and total aggregate of miles to be serviced. With over 20 addi- tional miles of Manvers County roads to be added to Victoria County in April any additional miles would only add to the burden and de- crease the quality of service provided to all. Congratulations are extend- ed to Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Draper (nee Dorothy Bristow) who were married in Yelver- tons White Church on Satur- day p.m. Rev. Gerald Hof- stetter officiated at the cere- mony. Mrs. Barbara Hamilton was matron-of-honor, Miss Kathy Bristow was brides- maid & Miss Wendy Bristow (daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gary Bristow) made a cute little flower girl.

Congratulations to Grand- view Public School Sr. Boys on and their coaches on winning the J.E. Weldon sports compe- tition in Basketball. The Sr. girls also made a very good showing. Congratulations to Mr. Wil- bert Malcolm who observed his 82nd birthday on St. Patricks Day. Mr. and Mrs. Lawrence Staples have sold their Cen- tennial farm which bas been in the family name for over 130 years. A tough decision for Lawrence and Vera to make. The Staples have been valued members of our community and the larger community of Manvers and we hope they will retire in this area and continue the pleasant rela- tionship.

A school night for Scouting was held in the Greater Toronto Region recently4. A boy and his parents went to a school to find out what Scouting entails. Meetings were held in 22 schools on the same night. Mr. Hird said that on this one night 550 boys and Many people take Scout- ing tor granted, not realizing there are more than 250,000 members of Scouting in Can- ada, said Harold S. Hird on Thursday. He is Director of Public Relation for the Great- er Toronto Region of the Bovs Scouts Association of Canada and was speaking at Bowman- ville Rotary Club's luncheon Thursday, March 14th, at the Flying Dutchman. Introduced by President, Harry Cooke, Mr. Hird said that about two weeks ago a report appeared in the Tor- onto newspapers that Scouting was dying and suffering staggering losses in member- ship. This, he said, was based on a local report. He admitted Scouting "bas lost a few members but not staggering numbers. Mem- bership in urban areas bas decreased while in rural areas it bas increased." "The report gave us the opportunity to tell people what we are really doin'g," he added. According to Mr. Hird, Scouting is an important movement, "The question is not whether you can afford to have it but whether you can afford not to have it." He said that the government bas been giving grants for things Scouting bas been doing all along such as conservation 100 adults joined. "Next fall we are hoping to expand to 70 schools in one niglyt," he added. Mr. Hird concluded his speech by saying that "any person who wants to join Scouting should be able to." The guest speaker was thanked by Morley Watson. the Editor that is rarely if ever brought to the attention of the general public. I understand that in the province of British Columbia all liquor advertising has been banned. In that province, youth and the public generally are allowed to make an open, unbiased: decision about the use of this product. Would this not be a saner position for our province to take? I for one would be much happier to live in a province where my children were not constantly and persistently, and right'in their own living room, dinned with this dangerous half-truth. Liquor advertising should be banned in Ontario so that our children could make an open, unbiased responsible decision apart from this daily, and sometimes hourly barrage of a dangerous half-truth.

It may be that two great minds think alike or, simply a coincidence. Be that as it may the word, "Progress" was the word sent in by me suggesting a new title to the Oshawa expansion area. Also the "Title Prrogress' was sent in by me for our own regional area. But I wasn't successful in either case. However, when all is said and done, "PROGRESS" is the only word one could use as all people and ideas are brought together under one authority as their official representative. So let's all pull together with ANNUAL MEETING of Durham Farmers County Co-Op ODD FELLOWS HALL - ORONO March 25th, 1974, 8 p.m. CELEBRATING 25th ANNIVERSARY Short business meeting followed by entertainment. Refreshments and Prizes EVERYONE WELCOME Letters to Dear Editor, Dangerous Half Truth Producers generally want to promote the sale of their products. The liquor industry along with the others desires to promote the sale of its wares. This desire has led to what many consider to be a dangerous half-truth. The li quor industry continually-pre- sents a picture of attractive well-dressed young people enjoying a moment of relaxa tion along with the use of its product. We'1l grant that there is an element of truth here - in that this is the manner in which many of the youth of our day do enjoy a moment of relaxation. But this is not the whole truth. The use of, alcoholic beverages is associated with other situations. It is associa- ted with drunkeness, highway accidents, death, broken homes, impoverishment etc. This is one side of the picture m one accord to live and enjo"i our new associations to vent any thought of failure entering our minds. "Progress it is and Progress it will be." Sincerely, G. Graham, Bowmanville.
