Resident wins consolation in Minden demolition derby Appreciation: Our warmest congratulations to Peter Hvid- sten, publisher of the very fine 125 year commemorative edi- ton of the Port Perry Star, Tuesday, October 1, 1991. When .plans were being made to celebrate the 125 year anniversary of the Port Perry Star; to compile and publish a history of its growth and de- velopment down through the years with delightful pictures to make it more fascinating; it must have involved a consider- able, lengthy task, delving into endless records to produce this wonderful history. This history is a revealing testimo- ny of the untiring efforts of many poeple giving of their time and interest to prepare this treasured 125 year edi- tion. A great achievement! Due to being desperately busy, we are slow in voicing our appreciation. Sorry Peter! P.S. So many folks have mentioned to us about the ef- forts of Peter Hvidsen and those who have written the splendid histories in this tre- mendous 125 year edition. Lastly-it is an honour and a pleasure for us to have this in- valuable resume of 125 years of Port Perry history. We'll treasure it! Thank you! Sam and Mabel Cawker.

Bob Heayn read the Scrip- tures and Kathy Watts played the organ and piano. Services will continue to be held at 11 a.m. each Sunday. Nestleton United celebrate anniversary With cool weather prevail- ing, Nestleton United Church greeters were Sam and Mabel Cawker who welcomed a very large attendance for our spe- cial anniversary service. Nestleton United was built in 1900 and observed its 91st anniversary in the present sanctuary, on Sunday, Oct. 27 at 11:15 a.m. The first church was built 156 years ago. Rev. Jack Hill, a former minister of Columbus United Chucrh, now of Langley, Brit- ish Columbia was our special anniversary speaker and was warmly welcomed by our min- ister Rev. Dale Davis, who conducted the service, Interesting to note: A large crowd of worshippers were present from Blackstock-as well as Columbus area, to hear Rev. Hill's fine message and renew old times! He used as - his sermon theme "How Great-a Love" based on scrip- ture lessons from Mark and John, read by son Chuck Hill. The ladies quartet sang two numbers "I Come With Joy to- Meet My Lord" and "A Com- mon Love" accompanied by pi- anist Carol Mairs. The children's theme with our min- ister in charge enjoyed their story with him about "blink- ers" and how hard it is to see. Offering was gathered by grandsons of Rev. Hill, Mat- thew and Aaron Hill. Service closed with the fine old number "Stand Up and bless the Lord" and Commis- sioning and Benediction by Rev. Jack Hill, followed by Three Fold Amen. The Dinner Theatre" the Nestleton Church presented on Saturday night in the Community Cen- tre was a great success.
