Galloway, Execu- tive Director, St. Joseph's Hos- pital, Hamilton, speaking on Pa- tient Care -- whose Responsi- bility, said; "For the welfare and safety of patients, it is es- sential that there be very close liaison between the governing body and the medical staff. Each group must recognize the pre- rogatives of the other by ac- cepting fully its own responsi- bilites and understanding the oth- er's problems," he said. "This can be accomplished Rev.

Dr. Galloway concluded: "It is important that the governing body and the medical staff work in full co-operation. The medical staff should feel it has its right- ful say in the policies of the. hospital and both must work in close accord to ensure that the full resources and facilities of the hospital are employed opti- mally to ensure every patient receives the best of hospital care. The public has a right to it and our collective res- ponsibility is to ensure they re- ceive it".

The United Church has an enviable record in the realm of social action and social service, Rev. John F. McKay of Windsor, president of the London Confer- ence of the United Church of Canada, told delegates at a meet- ing of the Huron-Perth Presby-' Wry at Brucefield United Church Thursday. "The Church, however, must continually be examining its theo- logical basis if service is to continue," he said. "The Christian motivation to serve comes from the fact that Christ has served us in our need and calls upon us to be his living Presence in the world today," .he said. "Sometimes in the past we have been more preoccupied with action than reflection, more interested in power than piety, more concerned' with effecting' political coalitions than the com- Mrs. Carol Carter, A.R.C.T., A.

It is little wonder that this thrust was doomed because it lacked a ,theological foundation." Mr. McKay mentioned that theologians in every generation must be finding ways and means of making God more real to man. He said the "God is Dead" theo- logians did help Christians to recognize the false gods such as nationalism and institutionalism Lions club marks long membership Seaforth Lions marked the long time service of several members Monday evening when membership anniversary awards were presented. Heading the list was James A. Stewart a member for 45 years. Frank Kling, W.T.Teall and James M. Scott received pins emblematic of 30 years, Scott Cluff and John Turnbull for 25 years and Willis Dundas for 20 years membership. The club approved grants to several organizations including $25 to the C. of C. Xmas light- ing program; $50. to the CNIB and $100 to the Seaforth Minor Hockey Association. The club discussed pre- liminary plans for the summer carnival and agreed on dates in July subject to the availability of rides. Harold Turnbull, Parks COm- mittee chairman'said renovations to the dressing rooms at the park pavilion were completed with th'e exception of certain work that would await warm weather. Arrangements for financing- payment of the $11,400 project were completed. but the net result of their efferti left something to be desired. "They had destroyed the past religious structure/and theology but failed to replace them," he said. Mr. McKay said that some critics of the United Church say it has no theology but he reminded.: her critics that the United Church does have a theology which is ,summed up in The Twenty Arti- cles of Faith. "By way of meeting the present crisis in theology," he said, "I submit to you we must be sure that God is central in our worship and our service." Mr. McKay also advised, "If we are set on becoming .good theologians we would do spend infinitely more time study- ing the Book of books." He said, "My first point then is that if the Church is to be restored to its original glory we must have a Biblical Theology. "Secondly, the United Church I believe is determined to be an evangelical church. I am quite excited about "Key '73", the North American program which focuses on evangelism. The United Church along with 139 other denominations is commit- ted , to participate in this program," he said. He saw the minister as the Chief Evan- gelist in the local congregation, he said. "0 yes, I also visualize a, happy •church. Joy, I believe, is already creeping through our church. It is my contention that evangelism is doomed unless we can show that Christ has come into our lives not to rob us of our joy but to multiply it." Mr. McKay expressed his de- light with the union of the Evan- gelical Brethern church with the United Church. Concluding he said): "I have (Continued on Page 20) Heads Feed group A. W.
