She compared the old and new regimes to our kitchens of 25 years agoand those we work in today. The new Council like our modern kitchens will be more conven- ient and much more efficient. Mrs. Osborne told us that a committee of eight people was set up months ago and these members hiave worked dcli- gently to do the ground work for this new Council. Not less than seventy-five rnemhers, appointed for a three year term, make up the Council. Lt will have a lay person as chairman, rather than the minister, with a Vice-Chair- man, Secretary and Treasur- er. These seventy-five mem- bers are divided into six committees, namnely Christian Education, Membership. Wor- ship, Property, Finance and Outreach and Communica- tions. Seven trustees are appointed to look after prop- erty. bequests 'and invest- ments. Auditors are appointed yearly and the Ministry and Personnel Committee com- prised of three members will sit for two years. There will also be Presbytery delegates, appointed from the Council. The Executive is the Central core of the new organization and is made up of the chairpersons of each commit- tee. They will meet six times a year whereas the Council will meet four times a year. Mrs. Blair thanked Mrs. Osborne for hringing us so much information in such concise form. The worship service was conducted by Mrs. L. Tomlin- son who gave us some thoughts for the new year. She read the poem- "A New Year's Garden" whichsuggested that kindly thoughts, prayer, rows of chuekies and smiles will ensure a happy year'.
