Woon were shocked to hear of her sudden passing early on Sunday morning December 26th, 1937, The deceased was born in Reach % oyynship, east of .Saintfield, January «2879859; the youngest of the family i ate George Brown, S§, In 1881 arried to James ¥., Woon J 'Meased her June 27th, 1898. £54 her husband's death she bravely up the task of running the farm 'aring for her four young child- ren. In 1916 she and her daughter moved to her late residence in Port Perry. On Christmas Day, she seemed to be _ extra well, and enjoyed the day with her family. Upon retiring she com- plained of being very tired and a few hours later pdssed away, the result of a heart attack. Having found her Saviour in early life, He was her Comfort and Strength during her many lonely hours. A very faithful member of the Methodist, and - later the United Church, she took a great interest in the meetings of he Women's organizations. The funeral was largely attended and was conducted by her minister, Rev. W. J. H. Smyth, who, with no --foreknowledge -- whatever, chose the|-- same Text that Rev. F, W. White had used at her, husband's funeral 40 years "ago. (II Tim. 4:7) "I have fought a good fight, I have finished my course, I have kept the faith." Her body was laid to.rest beside that of her husband, in Bethel cemetery, Greenbank, on Wednesday, December 28th. ig The family survive her. Rosella at 'home, Richard D. in Port Perry, Rev. Norman G., First Congregational Church, Calumet, Mich, and Mabel, wife of Cecil Phair, Greenbank, Four grandsons, two granddaughters and one brother, Alex. Brown, of Whitby. also survive. The following meditation was in- cluded in Rev. Norman Woon's Christ- mas letter to his mother, She read it "again and again with loving pleasure just before her death: "A CHRISTMAS MEDITATION." The stories that cluster about the birth of Jesus; born in Bethlehem of Judea in the days of Herod the king, "are among earth's most treasured pos- sessions. At least once each -year, at Christmas time, we lift them out of the pages of the New Testament and - on every continent and in' every lan- guage they are told and told again. The familiar sentences are unbeliev- ably simple and, strangely moving. Invariably they weave their age-old : spell, Our little children hear them ' for the first time with wide-eyed wonder, and grown men and women crowd into thé churches on Christmas Day to listen in almost breathless silence to those old stories that they already know almost by heart, Touch them where you will and they are amazingly simple. For example, con- sider Mary, the mother of Jesus. We are apt to forget her, for we are - eatight and held by the winsome 'won der, the tender strength, the tragle 'fate of her great Son.

In a Bethlehem stable, for there was no room in the inn, she brought forth her first born pou, #nd and because there were no kindly hands to receive him, no one to care for her, she wrapped him in swaddling clothes and laid him in a manger.

LIONS CLUB CHARTER NIGHT On 'Monday, January 10th, the local Lions Club will receive its charter at the 'hands of District- Governor Peter- son, of Windsor, The occasion will be observed by a banquet attended by the Governor and visiting Lions which will be held in the High School building. The I.0.D.E, have taken the job of catering--or should we say feeding the Lions. After the dinner a short programme of speeches and intru- . mental assembly will then move up to the auditorium where a Floor Show and 1 Dance will be given, --Hear Those Lions Roar-- Most of us have seen a bear dance, but to see Lions dance will be a novelty. However the Tail Twister and Lion Tamer will see that they do. The accommodation at the banquet is necessarily limited which shuts out the younger set, but the Lions have a plan to surmount this difficulty in part and let the young people have a fling. At the conclusion of the dinner program (about 10.30) they will be welcomed to the Floor Show and Dance in the auditorium, Tickets - for the Floor Show and Dance may be procured from Lion Geo. Manning--mention this to your boy friend. CARD OF THANKS Mrs. M. Christie and family, Utica, wish to thank the United Church, Blue Bird Club, and relatives for the kind expressions of sympathy and floral tributes, given during their recent sad bereavement in the loss of a loving husband and father. ------, ee ------------------ PORT PERRY UNITED CHURCH 11 a.m.--Morning Worship. 1.45 p.m.--Men's Class and Forum. 2.456 p.m.--Sunday School. - 7 p.m.--Song Service with old hymns.
