Poss- ibly the reason behind this encouraging sight is the fact that Sunday School has been combined with the church service as of February 1 and by all sights and sounds it appears as if it might be the answer. Let's hope so, anyway. Due to the generous don- ations of a few.of the mem- bers of our congregation, a nursery complete with cribs and a playpen, has been set up in the church basement and will be staffed by one regular helper and hopefully some of our young people will also volunteer from time to time to help assist with the caring of these little tots. We do require a baby lounge and if anyone has one the most \ that they no longer need, we would be very appreciative of it. This service is being pro- vided for infants and child- ren to the age of three and it is hoped that more of our young parents will feel a little more at ease about coming to Sunday services when they can be assured that their wee ones will be cared for while they are attending church. Children of age 3 and over, of course, will go to their regular Sun- day School classes during this period. So parents please keep this in mind for next Sunday at 10:00 a.m. Bundle the kiddies up and bring them along. We'll sure be glad to Seagrave 4-H The first meeting of the new unit "Let's Bake Bread" was held on Wednes- day, January 28, 1976, in the home of Mrs. Enid Belair. We opened with the 4H pledge.

Mrs. Belair demonstrated how to make Freezer Whole Wheat bread. Mrs. Nicholls also told us about type of yeast and points to watch when baking bread. We learned that temperature of the bowls and oven when baking bread are important. We all had a turn in - kneading the bread and it was left for Mrs. Belair to bake.

J Activity centre busy Many ladies have/already signed up for the introduc- tory course in Decoupage. This is the art of finely cutting out figures, flowers or whatever, from a coloured print - often from calendars - and learning how to glue these cutouts to a glass jar, a wooden board, a wooden box or whatever backing is suit- able. Thereafter you will find out how to properly sand and -varnish your picture until you have built up about 40¢ coats of clear varnish. De- coupage was very much in vogue in Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries and it is becoming a favourite dec- oration for furniture of the elegant-primitive type. All participants are kindly re- minded to bring a pair of good nail scissors and some prints along, as well as a good natural bristle paint brush - camel, beaver or mink hair brushes are expensive but they render the best resutls. Also bring a piece of wood, a glass jar or whatever you wish to decor- ate. Most other supplies will be on hand, including a number of coloured prints for your choice. Decoupage will take up most of the time in both villages, but please do not conclude that we don't carry on with all the other activi- ties - crocheting, knitting and macrame work! We plan on a large macrame wall hanging as well as a crochet- ed top in Irish picot squares. These can also be adapted to make a tablecloth or decora- see them...and you!

Following ser- vices here, he and organist Mrs. Joan Lee, provided music for the Greenbank congregation as well. Many thanks to this young man for his musical contribution.

Our 4H gals are off and "running again. This unit is on "Let's Bake with Bread" and Mrs. Enid Belair opened her home to the girls for their first meeting. A more detailed report from their correspondents can be found elsewhere in the STAR. Sounds like a fascinating. course girls, good luck!

Sunday, February 22, the Seagrave Brownies will join the worship service and celebrate the birthday of the founder of these associated groups, Baden Powell. The service will take the form of a sing-a-long of praises, new and old, involving the con- gregation and our visitors.

The late Mr. Duckworth was a brother-in-law of Mr. Tobin on Lilla project Recent press reports about faltering local opposi- tion to the Lilla widening project may have been somewhat premature, or so it seems following several local initiatives taken over the past week. As well as opposition by a number of local individuals, a "neighbourhood group" consisting of concerned local residents has scheduled a February 15th meeting to be held at Town Hall 1873 to discuss the Lilla Street pro- ject. The meeting, to be opened to all local residents, is expected to "let politicians know what we think about it." According to Bev Muir, one of the group, Scugog, Regional, and officials and politicians from other levels of government will be invit- ed to attend. Not only will local residents voice their opposi- tion, said Mrs. Muir, but tive potholders. Instructing in Decoupage will be Mrs. Shirley Ware. Please call her at 986-5505 for special information. Due to inclement weather and impassable roads it was necessary to cancel our sessions on two occasions during January. New times - in Nestleton: Mon. Tues. and Wed. from 6:30 - 10:15 p.m. In Caesarea Thurs. and Fri. from 12:15 - 4 p.m. they will present to officials "workable alternatives." Mrs. Muir is concerned about what she claims is a misunderstanding between local residents and 'Oshawa people' (Region works authorities) about just what the people in Port Perry want. She said she had reas- on to believe that Durham Region officials think Port Perry residents want the three lane highway. The meeting will be held on the Sunday from 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. 'communication A iE FAL SRT ADY, and Mrs. Hadley. We ex-- tend, our sympathy to these families. Seagrave Church envel- opes are available from Mr. Bert Wanamaker. If you have . not received yours, please contact him, We are sorry to report that Mr. and Mrs. Les Sharpe and Alan who have been staying with his daugh- ter and family, Mr. and Mrs, Peter Jones and Kevin, are planning to return to Eng- land next Sunday. We wish them a safe flight home and hope that they will be back again with us real soon. Congratulations to Mark, AL os pads Le Carol and Ted Sturman, Kathy, Karen, Connie and Krista Carr, Raymond and Joanne Nobbs, Dawn. and Jeff Abraham, Newman, Bill Short, Angela Stone, David and Cheryl tandish, Susan and Pauline -- berge for achieving per- 'fect attendance at church. That's something to be proud of kids! On the weekend, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Carr and family joined Mr. and Mrs, Barry Nichols and Sherry of Orillia to help celebrate little Sherry's birthday. - Next weeks news may be phoned to 985-2094. Oppose 3-lane Lilla St. (continued) "ed and filed by council. "I can see where they would take this as tacid approval," said Mayor Law- rence Malcolm. On hand for the afternoon session of council were Dr. and Mrs. Ralph Price and Bev Muir, all local residents who have expressed reser- vations about the project. Mrs. Muir asked that coun- cil first determine what their position is, then let the Region know clearly to elim- inate some of the apparent problems that have led to the three- lane decision. She said with her talks with the Regional works authorities, it appears they - think the three-lane idea is acceptable to local residents. Dr. Ralph Price said that a new bypass would be too expensive, but pointed out that there is one already. Highway 7 and 12 is a natural bypass and would' serve all but the Oshawa traffic. Mrs. Muir agreed. Only the Oshawa traffic would be handled by Lilla Street, something the arterial road 'has been doing so far quite well, at two lanes. Coun. Reg Rose said he was never in favour of the widening, but added that the fear seemed to be that the Region would offer their solution or nothing. The work is expected to eliminate severe flooding problems in the area. "If we are willing to gamble on it, I'm certainly ready to go for two lanes again," said Coun. Rose. The vote on the restating of council's position was a three-three - tie. It was Mayor Malcolm's vote that turned the tide in favour of notifying the Region. ~ SEE A PICTURE YOU WOULD LIKE IN THE PORT PERRY STAR?
