i i 2 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanvillc, June 29, 1988 Section Two Student Wins Poetry Award Wesleyville News by E. Barrowclcugh At Welcome church on Sunday morning, the children children were told an amusing nature story of a woodchuck racing across a field with nothing in pursuit and hiding hiding in a woodpile. Soon an adult came the same way, caught the runaway and earned him back much as a cat carries a kitten, but not too gently. The human experience experience when we run away from God is not the same, we are not forced back. A runaway runaway is forgiven and welcomed welcomed back on return. Rev. Sedgwick's sermon was based on the story of the frightened disciples in a storm on the lake as found in Mark. They were terrified of the wind and waves but awestruck awestruck with a stranger fear when Jesus bade the storm be still. They were rebuked for lock of faith as we should be, if we do not make it our business to tell the world of our belief in Christ. Nine members of the junior choir joined with the seniors to sing "O Lord you make the rainbow". Occasionally their worship in song brings spon-' taneous response and this was one of those times. They were led by John Groene- veld and accompanied by Stephen Sword. The offering was received by Clarence Nichols and Wayne Ough; peonies, orange lilies, Sweet William, roses and a bouquet of whorled loosestrife made the floral offering. Katie and Jessica Nichols assisted their grandfather, Clarence, in SPECIAL Fast Loading Tandy 1000HX includes Monochrome Monitor M.S.L. . $1510.95 complete • Features 8088-2 microprocessor with switchable 7.16/4.77 MHz clock speed. 1 MS-DOS built-in ROM - loads without diskettes 1 Built-in 3 1/2", 720K Disc Drive, 256K memory 1 Includes our new personal deskmate 2 1 Choose from thousands of popular programs.; -- Your Pick out of our grab box of programs • -- One FREE program with each purchase of an HX • Easy credit terms • Low as $9.86 per week Bowmanville Audio-Vision 20 King St. W.

With all the excitement of the summit meeting in Toronto, Toronto, perhaps we put too much emphasis on unusual sights and sounds, but as yet no one, locally, has found a solution for the mysterious happenings on Thursday evening. About 10 p.m., Helen Helen Dinner saw a large boat completely lit, and flashing lights showing north of it. She and her husband watched it through binoculars, binoculars, while about three miles east three other households saw a tall shaft of light, stationary stationary for some time.

Allan Holdaway and George Hall had a good view but no answer to the puzzle. On Monday of last week a blimp or sky vehicle of some kind went east, flying slowly and at low altitude. It bore the name "Fuji Films" and returned on Thursday. There is a large plant bearing bearing that name in Toronto. Congratulations to Elizabeth Elizabeth Groeneveld of North Hope Central School on her award for poetry, as well as to the other young people taking part in the Northumberland Northumberland and Newcastle school area.

(It ern technology clashes with natural habits. Ospreys like to build their nests of rough sticks on high pinnacles, so a ' pair, in another community,, chose a hydro pole. The large nest was not very stable and a second attempt succeeded better, but somehow somehow a short caused a fire. So the nest was destroyed, but hydro men brought another tall pole and installed it nearby nearby complete with platform. The birds are interested, so hopefully a third attempt will be successful. The birds are not plentiful. ; Nqla,Holdaway who suffered suffered severe burns when her home burned some time ago, has recovered sufficiently to leave hospital in Kingston and come to Port Hope where she is now at Hope Haven.

Most, as Rudy Eymans do, use irrigation so the berries are moist, sweet and delicious. delicious. FORTY YEARS AGO.

Th"e competition took place the weekend of June 18 and 19. Bill has had the car since he was 16 and has worked hard to make his Mustang a winner. Two years ago, while still attending Bowmanville Bowmanville High School, Bill changed the motor to a 289 in the school machine shop. Most recently he had the classic car re-painted to a bright royal blue. The car was ready just in time for the recent show. Winning isn't unfamiliar to Bill and his Kentucky- made car.
