The Tournament was a huge success thanks to a great deal of volunteer help, generous sponsors and "the weather.'-,AII ten teamns in the T.O.N.B.A. Mosquito Division participated. The resut of the tournament was as follows: flurger King defeated Henry Buildail in the "D" Championship. Mothersilis Printing defeated Net- tinga Construction in the "C" Championship.

MacGiregor pick- ed up 3 more runs in the top of the mnning and went on to win the game 4-0. It made for an exciting ending to the'day. 1 would like to thank the many people who volunteered their time to make the tournamnent a success. Kendal Column, Wel 1 guess we have to accept the fact that fall is really here, some of the gardens are showing the effects of frost, and the leaves suddenly are ail turned colour. Many of the trees are already standing bare and its beginnîng to feel more and more like it's time to get out thewarmer clothes, 1 for one always hate to put away the warmn weather clothes, 1 always wanit to keep wearing themn as long as possible. It's as though one could hold off cold weather, but once they are stored away, it's here, 1 guess we must ail face up to the facts, of life whether pleasant or not. I guess everyone was hit by the unpleasant fact that our area of the country, is not immune to the fact that it is one of the sites chosen as a dump site. Perhpas the one sure way to be free of that worry, is to live in a swampy area of land and to go back to the days; when we didn't want everything wrapped in plastic and foil. When we got jugs refilied instead of another jug and you took your own container to get your milk, honey and peanut butter. You may have had a ittle paper to burn up, but you didn't have piles and piles of plastic bags and jugs to get rid of. Garbage was put out in your own can and you hoped they would treat your container gently, se it would last a year or two. We have ail been spoiled by the "conve- nience of picking up pre-wrapped goods and now the world and ail of us in it are paying for it, practically everyone you talk to has allergies, breathing problems or burning or itching, one always felt sorry for the poor person who suffered from hayfever, now nearly everyone is in the same boat. Sunday was a cool, breezy day that started out dulI and ended up duil, with a few sunny patches. There was a pretty good turnout at Church, although with 'aIl the colds and flu around, it's a wvonder more weren't absent. Rev. Rawnm]ld the cal to worshipi, fOllowed Iby the repeating of thle NeCrý(eed. The choir sang thc hyrnn11, 'MIay We Walk icth Lord,' after the an- nouncemientý. flhe hYnmn'Corne Iel Us Sing of aWonderful Love', was sung. The Children's Story told by Rev. Ransom was what would they do if everything around them was in darkness. Some of the children said they would get a candle, somte said, use a flashlight, these show a light, so they coul d see to walk, if there was no light they could trip and fal and hurt themselves. Bryan told them that in the- Bible, we learn of Jesus, who was a light sent to us by God, to t each us to, love and to share. Rev. Ransom based his Sermon on Called by no Other Name. He told us of how his father would go about getting a car when they were ail at home. He would take them ail out with him and look at cars mak- îng sure that il would be big enough that ail of them could fit in- to the car comfortably, that the dea.ler was committed. Now when he is ,thinking about a car, hie sits at home and reads al the reports on them, looks at the pictures of the cars, checks on the warranty. It is a different way than in the former days, but basically it is stili a hands on approach., Moses'was a man, who felt that lie wasn't really capable of what he had been chosen to do, as he grew older, he needed the assurance of God, hie asked God to give him this assurance, that He would help him in the time ahead . The burning bush that appeared to Moses, was God's assurance or warranty. We also as Christians, individual and nations, neced God's assurance. Moses was not ready to encourage his people to follow hiiiim, without, God's assurance as to what God intended to do with them. God assured Moses by telling him, 1 know you, by narre, 1 know everything about you, your strength and your weaknesses,. God made them a distinct people, Christians, to follow, Christian ethics. God, gocs becfore us to light our path. These were the assurances God gave to Mloses. Hie knows us by name, we are Christians. He lights our path bef'orelus.
