E 8-Orono MWcekly 'limes,Weeda.Steer1 97 LETTER TO THE EDITOR Sept. 3, 1997 May I add my voice and a speclal note ofriostalgia to the gerieral round of applause for Ororios striking mural. Perhaps ther e are only a few of us wlio remember using that great station. For a few ye ars i the 20's before the advent of the liglit freiglit truck (first Laver then Hoar, I thirik) we shipped milk to Toronto from that station. It was my happy lot to be allowed to accompariy the one liorse democrat and the pre- cious caris of milk and to watcl'i the train pull in and out. It must have beeri on time sometimes. Orum Gamsby stood i portly splen- dour on the pordli of tlat fine bouse, riow 5161 Main- St., arid saluted everymari or beast passirig by. It was said, albeit somewliat kiridly, that lie liad riever done a day's work in iis life, but lie surely took lits responsibility for dis- pensing early morrdig cheer very seriously. I cari still hear him belting out "your gonria make it o.k. this morig". Ii those days we liad fast liorses and slow cars and there was a firiely scripted speed limit sigri higli on a pole at Sommerville St. "ORONO SPEED LIMIT 15 MILES", whicli our former race hiorse scrupulously respected because lit was at the top of the hi. Years later wlier the limit liad long since been raised to 30 mpli I took it upon mayself to update the situation by shinriying up the pole. Te museum may yet be the berîeficiary wlien I no longer need the sigri to renulind myself to slow down riglit lere at home. As a footriote, at that time higliway 35 from Newcastle to Orono was stlll gravel, so mucli so that sometimes in spring breakup'a teax nrd wagon could barely make it by liugging the fence line, especlally between the 3rd and 4tli. Does some corre- sporident remember that great day -wlier the pavement was operied into Orono? I recali only breakirig my owri speed limit on those clumsy, .out of line" roller skates whlcli I brouglit especially from Toronito for the inaugu- ration. Henry Sissons KENDAL COLUMN by Phyllis'Lowery It's mhat timne of year agairi, less mari a week until Fal officially starts. The Fair is over. Churcli is back on its normal scliedule, the trees are losing leaves and cliarging colour, kds are al back to scliool everythirig is back on track except "me", so I guess I liad better get my act in gear. This has beeri-a rather odd summer, it seemed to start so late and then ended so soon, there were very few evenings mbat a person could sit outside with- out a swVeater on. We lad the fumnace on in Juiy and again ini thec first week of September. Everyonie were complatinig that the gardens were way belinid anid nýw everythLirig is riperiing aLt on ce. Sunday was a beautiful day, it was the second Sunday ti creation and "The Celebration of New Life". Theý service opened with the Choir singing. "You Are A Part of The Family" still singing, they went out arnong the congre- gation and sliook hands witli everyone. Rev. Black then welcomed all present, and told of mhe life and work of the congregation, the breakfast get-together at 6:30 a.m. on Saturday mornings,_ the Youth Group meetings start- ing on Wednesday i 7t1 at 6 p.m. includes dinrier, xiii be meeting weekly. Sa1turday 2tli for men oniy, b)owling anid fellowship (6:45 p.m. The Christ Canmdie was lit, the gathering hymnis were, ,Biger Than ail My Problemns" and, "Majesty, Worship His Majesty". The choir then sàng, "How Long His It Been?" The chiîdren were calledi forward, Davidi asked Item if tliey cou-ld teW llm of SOMCe- thing that od lias made? They came ïIp with, lots of answers, flow.ers, birds, ani- mals, peopl&, earth. David told tliem that God also made "joy". He told thera of the lit- tie girl wlio cou1d not smÉle and asked thiem to imagine what it wvould be like if tliey could learn ti do things like these Doctors did. God loves each and every oneC of us and that gives us reason to smnile and be joyful. The childrens hymri was, ýCAod Can Do it Ag,,aini'. The pray7er of Self- Examiniation'anid the Words of Assurance were giveri. Grant Mcçoiflagliy read from the scrpturep 1 John4: 7-19. The Sermon ,vas titled, -The Heart of Ouf 'CommunitY." The lieart of anY communitY is the respect people have for each other wfether it is a vil- lage, a Cliureli, a family, the key to their rdationshtlp, and liealth, is the imeasure of respect they have for each other. How you treat others is how they will, treat you. 1Parents comtplai that they don't get any respect from their children, as thougl iIt sliould corne automatically. Respect must beearned and it is up to parents to teach their chldren to respect oth- ers. respect is not built in. Kendal United Church is here to help teacli how to leamn to respect. Tb îearn Viow God mearit us to live, this is cer- tainly not being tauglit ariy- wliere else, certainly not in our scliools, i business. The Cliurch is one place wliere you cari learri of how God cari help you to, face life. You cari be tauglit, that you are important, that God loves you.
