WESH.ýiLYVILLE The December meeting of the Morrisb branch of the Women's Institute was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ross Bamsey, Lakeshore Road on Tuesday, Dec. 5th.

To-gether with Canadian Girls In Training across Canada, the local group at Welcome presented their Christmas Vesper service at the church, on Sunday evening December lOtb. The altar was covered with a red lace- trimmed cloth, and on it was a birch log and holly, holding five taîl candles, on cither side was a larger, short candle-, one of them-burning., Near by stood a beautiful Christmas tree circled with red tinsel and trimmed with red and gold balls, and other objects. Candles in' red and green glass containers, burn- 1978 cd in the windows, and a bright poinsettia added to the Christmas colours. Appro- pria te music was played before service time. The theme was "Christmas with love", and began with sharing time. With the order of service each had been given a strip of red and green paper, and were now asked to form groups and tell each other of their most memorable Christ- mas. Then papers were signed and linked. CGIT members joined thema in a chain, and as ail sang "Holy Night", the girls came up the aisle to the tree bearing gifts and draped the chain over the tree. Christmas hymns were sung following meditations expres- sed by the girls, then mem- bers of the congregation, Mrs. Elva Osborne, Mary Kellogg, Mrs. Brooking, Angela McHolm, and Janice Hender- son told of memorable Christ- mases and Mary Symons connected each with love at Christmas, and after each one lit a candle. The responsive reading led by Krista McHolm fromn Corinthians 13, the songs by the girls, "Love cornes down at Christmas and Love is the best gift of alI", all led to the thought of the chain of love ail across Canada at these vesper services, but it was still an open chain and a link taken fromn the bark covered creche, joined the ends to complete the circle of love. This was done after the reading of the Christmas story by several of the girls, and the final large candie was lit. It was a privilege to share in this service where the reading, prayers, singing and symbolic actions done by the girls and their leaders, carried out the' theme so well. They concluded by singing "You want to pass iron", accompanied by Krista McHolm and Mary Symons with guitars. Then they pro- nounced the benediction and invited the congregation downstairs for refreshments, and left the people singing "Pass it on" while these were prepared. Organist for the service was Mrs. Helen McHolm., The leaders are: Mrs. Carol Thompson and Mrs. Isabel Eyman, and the girls: Wendy Brice, Darlene Brown, Diane Byers, Elaine Clarke,, Ann Eyman, Ghislane, LeMar- chant, Heather and Krista McHolm, Lisa Jo Monteith, and Mary Symons.

It was conducted by the Sunday School superintendent, Mur- ray Payne and ahl members participatedl in the theme of the festival of light.

A cold reception at church Sunday, someonehad forgot- ten to turn the furnace on. A fine engine tore through the village on Thursday evening, perhaps a misunderstandrng. Mn. and Mrs. J. Barkwell has installed smoke detectors last week and after Mr. Barkweil had gone to work one of the detectors started to beep and Mrs. Barkwell opened the cellar door and was met by. a puff of blue smoke after thoroughly examining cellar, saw nothing, she settled down again, and again the detector beeped. She phoned Bewdley. and explained wbat was happening and asked for someone to come neyer ex- pecting the fire equipment. He recommended the service man for the furnace who came but didn't find anything. In thé monning she informed Port Hope fire department, and they recommended having the furnace man again and put a new part on the funnace. It seems alright now, but she wonders if the fire detector is going to be a head ache or #a benefit. The furnace had been cleaned and the part replaced in the summer.
