Wiseman, leader of The Salvation Army in Canada, suppests that probably the vision _ of â€" the Army most people have at Christmas is of carollers singing and playing in the streets, and Christmas kettles into which money is thrownâ€"to help the poor‘ There is deep and rrateful appreciation . forâ€" the way venerous Canadians support the Army the year ‘round, but the Commussioner hopes the Army‘s presence will represent more than kettles and carols‘ "We want people to listen again â€" to the original Christmas _ carol", _ the Commissioner states in his mmessage. "More than ever before the world needs to hear and heed the angel chorus. ‘Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, goodwill toward men‘. Until God is recognized as ‘the Highest‘ there can‘t be true peace in the world. We worship at the altars of hedonism, sex. alcohol, material â€" possessions. For mmiultitudes these things force Christmas message from Salvation Army The Weston congregation of Jehovah‘s Witnesses are making preliminary plans to attend the three day training program at Mississauga‘s Glenforest Secondary School, 3575 Fieldgate Drive, December 3, 4 and 5. Mr. Arthur _ Guests, presiding minister of the Weston congregation, in discussing this anâ€" nouncement to the Witnesses attend weekend meet God out to the margins of living. In fact, many barely give Him a thought from one vear‘s end‘ to another. "The tragedy is that when God and His rules that are designed to produce the only really satisfactory and joyful lifeâ€"style. areâ€" ignored, life commences to go to pieces. Anâ€"architect who ignores commences to go to pleces. An architect who ignores simple facts about people, and just because he wants to, builds his ceilings so low that no one could stand upright, would bereckoned a fool. People who ignore the way they areâ€" made with their inbuilt need for something tmore than the things one can fee!, touch, smell and hanâ€" dle, are equally foolish. "God‘s peace, which give life poise and meaning, is available in Jesus Christ. He is alive in the world today, ready to love and forgive and help people. This is what Salvationists _ who _ are mumfibers of Christ‘s church, stand for. It is the only story they have to tell‘" Commissioner _ Wiseman challenges _ Canadian Salvationists particularly to meet people wherever they congregate. congregation, pointed at the challenge _ to â€" Christian thinking and Christian works in the rising tide of disbelief. "The object of the program" Mr. Guest said, is to equip everyone of the preaching fellowship of Jehovah‘s Witnesses in the practical use of the Bible as a help in fortifying the spiritual morale of people in our community. "The weekâ€"end program will impress upon the Witâ€" nesses the importance of performing their ministry more fully, by featuring the theme Keep on doing it more fully," said Mr. Guest. ‘Various discourses will emphasize that the Christian ministry is basically the Christian service in all its terms. The doorâ€"toâ€"door ministry is part of our Christian ministry, but much more is included. The highlight of .the assembly will be the Sunday afternoon public lecture â€" Can you live forever? â€" will you" Guest speaker for the 3 p.m. discourse will be Mr. Arthur Powley, district supervisor of Jehovah‘s Witnesses. "When we get a wellâ€" roundedâ€"out view of our Christian ministry, we see that it involves our entire lives." he concluded. All interested persons are welcome.

For _ _most â€" Canadian families the yuletide season isn‘t complete without a Christmas tree well covered with attractive decorations and bright lights. "But safety should be the foremost concern, when purchasing and installing your _ decorations _ this season,"" says Robert Price, Electrical Inspection Superintendent in Ontario Hydro‘s Central Region. To ensure a safe and happy holiday, unmarred by the dangers of fire, Mr. Price recommends the following Christmas â€" safety suggestions: When purchasing decorative lighting sets and electrical appliances be sure they bear the Canadian Standards Association seal of approval.

Store the tree in a cool place until you put it up. Keep it in a waterâ€"filled container. Make sure that all orâ€" naments and such things as cotton batting for decorations are fireproof. Do not block an exit with the tree. . 261 If a fuse blows, check first for defects in the lighting sets. If the trouble persists, call an electrical contractor for assistance. Never use electric lights on metal Christmas trees and keep metal icicles away from lighting sets. ‘ Turn off the lights when you go out or leave the room. Manufacturers‘ _ instrucâ€" tions on lighting equipment should be followed carefully. The safety features built into them may be nullified by careless or improper hanâ€" dling. Take down the tree as quickly as possible when the season is over and store all lights in a dry place. Outdoor sets should also be put away as the wiring deteriorates quickly from summer sun and heat.

This need not be; for The Salvation Army, on your behalf reaches out to such children and makes possible for them the thrill of opening gifts, the treat of enjoying a special holiday dinner, the warm feeling of wearing new clothes. Christmas can be a joyous time of year. â€" It can cause happy wonder to shine in the eyes of a little boy or girl. It can bring great joy into a child‘s life. It can awaken faith. "If a person hasn‘t learâ€" ned, the instructor hasn‘t taught,"" so goes the pedagogical saying. The words have far reaching implications in business and industry today. As more and more onâ€"theâ€"job training programs are being conducted in companies, it is a well recognized fact that effective teaching is more important than ever. Often a staff member is the best qualified to conduct onâ€"theâ€"job training because of his or her technical knowhow. Yet that same person may not have the teaching skills necessary to get this knowhow across to other employees. George Brown College in Toronto responded to the needs of the business community by establishing a professional _ development department which features a course in teaching techniques. The course was specifically geared to equip instructors and potential instructors in business and industry, as well as those conducting adult education courses, with the skills required for effective teaching. John â€" Hawes, _ course supervisor, says that when teaching techniques was established four years ago they held three courses. "This year," Mr. Hawes says. ‘"we have a six regular course, plus 10 specials we conduct both on and off campus." In the first year there were 45 students and in the past 12 months there have been over 300. Mr. Hawes explained the reason for this significant increase: ‘Since business is becoming increasingly competitive, _ employers must keep pace by using new methods and procedures. People have to be trained and upgraded. Nowadays a competitive company just can‘t afford to do onâ€"theâ€"job training that doesn‘t produce the best results."

The course covers both the theoretical and practical. Students cover the theory of learning, particularly in relation to adults, lesson planning, curriculum development, evaluating student progress, and so on. In practice sessions each student conducts a simulated lesson, ranging from five to thirty minutes in front of the class. They are video taped and played for all class members to analyze and evaluate. John Hawes talked about the current class. "A student is not required to devote the practice session to his or her specific field. For example, Bob MacLean, a computer instructor, demonstrated waffle making. And the same day a dressmaking instructor demonstrated pie baking so we had waffles and pie for lunch." And the day wasn‘t over yet. "You never know what a day will bring. In the afternoon, Cathy Spence, who will be teaching hairdressing in Kitchener, decided to do a hair cut for her demonstration lesson. And guess whose?" he said, pointing out his well shorn neck. A typical student reaction is that oif Wesley McKenzie, who is with the Ontario Department of Corrections and ateaches correctional procedures to staff at the Guelph Correctional Centre. Side by side with computer operator trainers, dressmaking instructors, office managers, nursing teachers and any job supervisor, Mr. McKenzie realized they all share common teaching problems. And he adds, We all share in the common satisfactions of improving ourselves." Mary Brunette, a registered nurse who is teaching a class of nursing assistants at the Hospital for Sick Children, says the course has been valuable to her because, ‘"With the use of audio visual aids you are constantly able to assess your own progress." But most important, she says "I‘m learning to develop the techniques that motivate people to learn." oronto 533â€"7954
