< 8 The Canadian Statesman, Bowinanvillc, July 9,1986 Section Two Cross-Canada World Concern Runners Make Pit Stop Here This group of dedicated youths are spending the summer doing something a bit different. They're making a run for hunger. The runners, pictured above, are partaking in a World Concern project which inolves a fund-raising relay race across the country. They made a pit-stop in Bowmanville last Friday morning. The race started early in June in Newfoundland and is scheduled to end in August when the runners reach EXPO '86 in Vancouver. Another Successful Yard Sale Held by Bowmanville Audio-Vision Bowmanville Audio-Vision staff are just removing their Yard Sale bulletin board when this photo was taken late Saturday afternoon, but standing behind one potential customer was owner Ted Denny trying for a last minute sale. The event was a bit late in starting on the Bank of Montreal parking lot because of the morning rains, but once the special bargain cartons were outside, the crowd of buyers soon began to arrive. What's Your Beef? by Catherine Denny LEAVING What is there to miss about this job anyway? Surely I won't mourn for silly club meetings where the members are grown men who "r-o-o-a-r" at each- other. I doubt that I'll pine away for those community fairs where kids force me to buy them candy floss in pay ment for taking photos of them. And why on earth would I be sad to see the last grand opening ceremonies of a new business whereby the proprietor always insists insists the reporter stay for another toast. I'd have to be a total fool to actually enjoy this work which, if it doesn't get me a pair of ripped stockings, usually finds me up on someone's roof or delivering delivering a speech I had no idea I was suppose to make. Here it's always hurry scurry, "where's this story" or "is that the right way to spell this kid's name" and line "someone s on Annual Interest Rate subject to change NATIONAL TRUST A Division of National Victoria and Grey Trustee BOWMANVILLE - 68 King St. E. 623-2504 one...they want a picture taken now!" Nope. No tears from this kid. I'm finished with this business. No more hassles from people who don't believe believe I'm Catherine Denny..."You're much too young" (I'll never understand understand how someone can be "too young" to be themselves?) themselves?) No more^ red-hot complaints about my column. column. No more Miss Christmas Christmas photos. Who cares if I'm never again invited out to a farm to witness the miracle of birth as a cow delivers her calf. I'll just be content not having to drive myself crazy worrying what to wear in the morning..if I wear a dress I'll probably have to climb fences at the zoo. Wear blue jeans and you can bet your life I'll have an interview with an important important fashion designer. Gone also are the sleepless sleepless nights spentwondering whether that beautiful young child I just interviewed interviewed was going to beat his fight against cancer. Yes, leaving is the best thing for me. Or so says my head to my heart. I have to let go of the apron strings, get on with my life, fulfill my goals. Who knows, maybe I'll come to love my new job with as much fervor, dignity, dignity, and pride as I do my old one. My co-workers might come to mean as much to me, and my bosses might treat me like family. I doubt it. That's why it's so hard to say good-bye. Wesley ville Church service at Welcome was conducted bv Rev. W. Sedgewick, but with Sunday School postponed till September, September, there was a smaller attendance of children. Rev. Sedgewick's sermon, "National destiny is not chance" was based on the scriptural lesson of the potter's wheel. The utensil formed by the wheel and the potter's skilful hands is a demonstration of creation. The pliable clay is developed into something planned by the potter, so is the design of the universe worked out by the Master Mind. Nations are not sustained ty The might of wealth and armies but by doing what is right. Jeremiah's message was to nations not just to individuals, and is a good message for Canada's birthday. Organist for the morning was Barbara Croft who accompanied the choir's anthem on the piano. The offering was received by Carroll and Clarence Nichols and Mary and Peter Symons greeted the congregation at the door. Two white chrysanthemums were the floral offering. At this last service before the outdoor services begin at Howard Quantrill's on July 6, Rev. Sedgewick expressed his thanks to the organist, choir, and Ruth Woodruff secretary for the dedicated and faithful service of all of them. The hymns chosen for the service included the singing of the whole of God Save the Queen, not heard so often now as in former years and not so familiar to young people. A few years make a great difference and was shown when many accused the government of error on the new ten dollar bill when they did not recognize the Canadian ensign flag which was used in Laurier's time. Rev. Sedgewick will be away on holidays in July and in case of need of a minister, Cobourg Trinity United should be contacted, Lynda King is assistant minister there. Coffee hour followed the service which gave an opportunity of greeting each, other and welcoming visitors. Phillip and Genevieve Payne of Reaboro who were visiting Mrs. Payne's brother, Rev. Sedgewick. John and Astrid Anderson of Sacramentp area, California were present also, they are visiting Astrid's sister Margo Franke and family. Mr. and Mrs. Hearne and son Ralph have purchased the house next to the church and took this opportunity of meeting some church members they had not known. • ,Mr. and Mrs. Carroll Nichols, grandsons Mike and Matthew spent the weekend of June 22nd at Lake Placid, and while there enjoyed fine weather which adds so much enjoyment to any trip. At the beginning of that weekend, high winds blew down the major part of a large maple in Allan Holdaway's driveway. It broke a hydro pole, so effectively cut off power till repairs were made. Inez Symons, Alberta Anderson, Florence Reeve, and Edna Barrowclough joined many others at the afternoon strawberry tea at Dorothy's house. The lovely garden setting added to the pleasure of the afternoon. The change of displays in the house is worth seeing, especially interesting is the room with the fine old bed where a child is represented as ill, with the mother seated by reading to her. On a table nearby are instruments and medications used long ago by the late Dr. Beatty.
