Nestleton November: The leaves are fading and falling, The winds are rough and wild, The birds have ceased their calling, But, let me tell you my child, Though day by day, as it closes, Doth darker and colder grow, The roots of the bright roses, will keep alive in the snow. (Written by Alice Cary) (From the Second Book - 75 years ago). Welcome to Newcomers A cordial welcome is extended to new neighbors Detective Scott Whittemore and wife Jan- ette and small son Matthew - 2 years old. They are living in the red brick home just across from the Cliff Davis family and just at your turn onto Scugog Point Road. We trust they will enjoy their new home and we all get well acquainted and become friends! Halloween Night Rather a quiet Halloween this year with not too many young- sters out knocking on doors. The delightful young children that called in - we had many dressed in costume and they surely looked fetching! Lovely kids, po- lite, and enjoyed their treats!' Hope to see more next year! Some B's for your Bonnet Be enthusiastic - it 1s contag- ious! Be informed -it pays to know! Be energetic - it gets results! Be friendly - it wins friends! Be sincere - it begets respect! Be faithful - it encourages oth- ers. Take each day as it comes and live it in peace. The good thoughts of all who love you will keep you warm. Try to rest easy and everything will take care of itself. Our thoughts are filled with memories shared, of years gone by and special times - spe- cial hopes, and special dreams! Happiness Wouldn't life be lots more happy, If the good that is in us all were the only things about us, That folks bothered to recall. Wouldn't life be lots more hap- py, If we praised the good we see, For there's such a lot of goodness, In the worst of you and me. (unknown) Fred Astaire - the great sing- ing and dancing film star, was once asked the secret of his en- ergy and young outlook when he was over 80 years old. He re- plied simply, "I suppose itis be- cause | approach everything as if it were fresh. What a wonder- ful way of facing life! If we see only a sameness and dullness about life and about our sur- roundings, then of course we shall grow old and restless. It is not a bad idea to repeat to our- selves each morning when we wake, new mercies each return- ing day: Every day is a brand new day - and there has never been one exactly like it before! [et us miss nothing of its won- der! A full, joyous life! Blackstock United Church Celebrates With a splendid attendance Blackstock United Church cele- brated their 108th Anniversary on Sunday, Nov. 5 with Rev. Da- vid Shearman in charge of the service. Guest speaker Rev. Do- rinda Vollmer, minister of Pas- toral Care at the United Church in Port Perry. She gave a fine. historical message of the United Church delving into history to some extent. A large choir, sen- iors and juniors combined, sang well with Linda Kyte at the in- strument. A Baptismal was held. Kath- leen Marie Petrie daughter of Anne Marie Sgott and Alan Martin Petrie with Rev. David Shearman assisted by Elder Merrill Van Camp. Refreshments were enjoyed after the service closed down- stairs before wending their way homeward! A very fine service! Sorry we couldn't attend! Nestleton Presbyterian Church Rev. Wm. Fairley conducted the regular service in Nestleton Presbyterian Church at 11 a.m. Joyce Taylor was organist. Few- er were in attendance, due to the sudden wintery change in the weather. Psalm 119 - verse 137 and on was read responsively, and scripture readings were from Habakkuk Cnapt. 1 and versus 12to 17. The virtues of the char- acter of God were named in the sermon - pure, true, unchang- ing. We live by faith, and our characteris strengthened by ad- versity. Next Sunday, Remembrance Day will be observed and Dec. 3, Holy Communiion will be dis- pensed. Lunch was served after the service in the Sunday School Hall Please don't forget Remembrance Day -- Greenbank We came across a gravestone white, So stark in a lush, for- eign field, In memory of an un- known lad, Who fell that our wounds might be healed. No name was scribed upon that stone, Just these poignant words from the strife: "The greatest sacrifice of all - The gift of an unfinished life." Let us not forget on the 11th hour, 11th day of the 11th month how precious our free- domis. A large congregation attend- ed the 99th Anniversary of Greenbank Church on Sunday. The organ prelude by Linda Hunter, followed by Betty Stone - at the piano and Linda at the or- gan enabled us to enjoy the sound of the new organ. The choir sang the lovely anthem, "River in Judea" and Hugh Baird sang a solo, "Holy Art Thou." Rev. John Griffen was guest speaker and his sermon, entitled, "For God's Sake" was most thought provoking. Keith Bacon, on behalf of the Music Committee, presented the organ and choir gowns to the Church which was followed by the dedication prayer by Rev. Shepherd.
