Blake Gunter ee EE NEE EE IEE NB EN OB EEE EE EE EEE EE A A A EES Scugog Island News On Wednesday evening 13 ladies met at the home of Mrs. Grace Love for the U.C.W. We were pleased to have Mrs. Alva Thompson present and become a member, It seemed that we had chosen a poor night for visiting as it rained and it was open night at the school. However we hope the members will accept our request to visit before now. The topic for Devotions was Thanksgiving and this was emphasized by Lenore Blueman, Marian Hughes, and Grace Love who led in Scrupture, Study and Prayer. During roll call it was noted that most people were thankful for: good health. There were cards of appreciation from Susan (Healey) and Barry Luke for catering for their wedding reception, from Lillian Moore and Reta and Angus Wilkinson for serving lunch at Dave Moore's and Mrs. Graham's funerals, from Tena and Sam Arnold for flowers in honour of their 50th anniversary. Bonnie Gerrow gave a Hosp. Aux. report stating that an Infant Care Unit had been purchased for approx- imatedly $1,800. Also we were reminded that it is our turn for the Tuck Shop this month. Members promised pies or money to help with the lunch after the Thanksgiving Service at "Head Memorial." We were reminded of Regional meetings at Pick- ering and Blackstock Oct. 15 and 22. It was moved to cater for a wedding next May 11. We had received an air mail letter from our Missi- onary Etta Snow in Africa and who is soon leaving for a Canadian furlough. Thanksgiving was a very satisfactory day. More children found their way back to Sunday School. Rev. Pogue's message to them was the story from the Bible of the rich man and Movies at Latcham After several years ab- sence movies are returning to Porf Perry. Maybe. A businessman who has been successfully running movies at the recreation centre in Blackstock will show a Walt Disney produc- tion at the Latcham Centre in Port Perry as a test of local interest. He says that if the Walt Disney film to- morrow (Thursday) is well enough attended the movie idea will be repeated. The businessman expressed some concern about the fact that he is not being allowed to put up any posters announcing his attraction. A sign he had wired to a tree at Queen and Perry Streets was removed by the Port Perry by-law officer, despite the fact that posters for other events are left on posts and some elec- tion signs still hang in public places. § However, the business- man expfessed the hope that his ad in this edition of the STAR would attract enough attention to provide a real test of local interest. the poor widow who went to the temple to give an offer- ing and thanks. The former gave generou- sly but complained about everything. The latter gave her meagre pittance but was generous in her gratitude for so many things she consid- ered as blessings. We have received many things from others and God and should not forget this. The sermon to the adults was really a continuation of the former thought only ex- tended. At Thanksgiving we realize how dependent we are upon other people for our food and everything we have or use and at this time we must remember us who do not have as much as we do. Sometimes we are care- less in the seed we sow and consequently we reap many problems which we have caused. Rev. Pogue's mother from Manitoba is spending the Thanksgiving season with him and his family. The Old Fashioned Service in 'Head Memor- ial' was greatly enjoyed by approx. 50 people. The music supplied by YOUR AUTHORIZED DATSUN DEALER IN UXBRIDGE Pastor Payne's daughter, son, and gon-in-law was quite outstanding. Too bad more people were not able to enjoy it and the message by Pastor Payne. Well, maybe you'll make it next year. PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, Oct. 10th, 1973 We got a call from the Oshawa Times last week asking for more details on a convention which was held at the Latcham Centre. "What's a Latcham?" the Times wanted to know. Do you suppose that is what is known as investigative re- porting? Happier Babies For all present mothers and mothers to be, Port Perry now has a LelLeche League. The regular first Wednes- day of the month meeting was held on October 3rd, 8:00 p.m. at the home of Mrs. Sylvia Cookson. The thirteen members present informally discus- sed their own experiences of when the baby arrived, its acceptance by the family and breast feeding. Mother's problems were presen- ted and suggestions were offered. The international organi- zation of the LalL.ech League believes that the mothering associated with natural nursing for the baby is an important factor in their up- bringing. The Port Perry League was started in April of this year and in that time a number of local mothers have attended the meetings to share their joys and problems. The League offers a 24 hour counselling service for mothers as well as sup- plying new informative material on child rearing. So if any mothers or mothers - to - be are in- terested in the LaLeche League there is one now in Port Perry. After all who could resist a LaLeche League sweatshirt for their child with the slogan, "I'm a happy breastfed baby!" is at DEAN WATSON 1968 CHEVROLET BELAIR, 2 door, 6 cylinder Automatic, P.S., ladies car. *1,195.
