S. for the fall it might be interesting to quote this article of the Ladies Organization of Winthrop Cavan Church. Historical Reviewof Winthrop Cavan UCW Although the church is 100 years old, it was not until 1900 that our first ladies organization was formed. It was called "The Ladies Society of Christian Workers". The president at this time was Mit. (Rev.) Musgrove. A branch of the Women's Foreign Mission Society was formed which was called the Scattered Helpers. At this time meetings were held both summer and winter in the homes with an attendance of twenty-five. Money was raised by lawn socials, tea meetings, box social and quiltings. The last meeting in the old church was December 23, 1901. In 1903 Rev. P. Carswell was inducted and Mrs. Carswell was President. In 1905 a quilt was made with 1000 names autographed on it. In 1907 they raised $900.00 to Winthrop UCW hears about government The September meeting of Winthrop U.C.W. was held with 18 members present. Mrs. Koehler opened the meeting' with a reading Stewardship and Citizenship followed by a letter received from Ann REuber earlier this year. Marjory Anderson had charge of the meeting which was on Stewardship and Citizenship. The scripture was taken from Prv. 3 verses 9 and 10, followed by Hymn "Take My Life and Let It Be". Marion McClure gave a very well prepared and interesting outline on • governMent procedures from the time _ government was first formed until the present time. Ruth Axtmann read an item on "You CanTake It With You". This was followed by Hymn, "Breathe on me Breath of God". Mrs. Wm. Church spoke on Citizenship taking as her topic "Our Father's World". She spoke about the last sermon the late Rev. Livingstone gave at Winthrop and mrs. Grace Smith read the first Psalm also used in that same sermon. Hymn,"O Master Let Me Walk With Thee" was sung and Mrs. Jane Case gave a reading "One Day At A Time", Jill Wheatley sang a lovely solo "Until Then" accompanied by Mrs. Sniith and Mrs. 'Church led in prayer.

THE ANNUAL MUNICIPAL ENUMERATION IS UNDER WAY The annual municipal enumeration began on Friday, September 19, 1975 and will continue this week. This municipal enumeration is separate and distinct from the recent provincial enumeration which was conducted for the provincial election. During the week, an enumerator, carrying a proper identificatiOn card, will call at your residence for a few minutes to check basic information required in determining: • the allocation of education property taxes between the public and separate school systems; • the distribution of provincial grants to local governments to help reduce local tax bills; • the preparation of jurors' lists; and • population information needed for other municipal programs. The enumerator must record such information as the name, age, property status (e.g. owner or tenant), school support and residency of all mem- bers of the household. When the enumerator visits, please check that the information on the Enumeration Notice is correct. If it is not, revise it and verify the changes. If you are not home, a Notice will be left for you. If changes are necessary, please make them and mail the Enumeration Notice in the self addressed postage prepaid envelope accompanying the Notice. For any additional information, please contact the local assessment office. Arthur Meen Minister of Revenue T.M.

Apart from home heating, a family usually consumes the most energy in producing hot water. So it makes good sense to follow these energy-saving tips— whether your water heater is gas, oil or electric. The Bathroom • Showers usuallitake less hot water than baths. Since baths and showers account for abbut 40% of home hot water use, taking showers can offer cohsiderable savings. • When you turn off a hot water tap, make sure it doesn't drip. If it does, it probably needs a new washer. • More frequent use of the sink plug can prevent a lot of unused hot water from going down the drain. The Kitchen • Using too much detergent to wash dishes can waste hot water in extra rinsing. • If you use a dishwasher, wait until you have a full load. The Laundry Room • Always match the • Whenever possible amount of hot water use cold water for you put in your washer rinsing. to the size of the load. The Hot WaterTank • Long runs of hot water pipe should be well insulated— esppcially in unheated areas. • Switch off your electric water heater when going on vacation. The Cascade water heater will give you a dependable supply of hot water, but it is up to you to use it wisely. If we each save a little, we'll all save a lot. your hydro SEAFORTH PUBLIC -UTILITY COMMISSION Dr. Rodger Whitman, Chairman Edmund Daly, Mayor Betty Cardno Commissioners Walter Scott, Manager FRANI E!CLING LIMIT PHONE 527-1320 SEAFORTH Geom_A.

Each year they helped the building committee by paying the interest until the mortgage was , burnt on April 17, 1914. In 1919 they became known as the W.M.S. and Ladies Aid. In the twenty years they ,failed $2,2575.27 besides sending bales and clothing seventeen children. During war years all their energy was spent helping the Red Cross: In 1921 a aimmunion Set was bought and in 1923 they decorated the inside of the church for $.140.00. In 1925 it was the 25th anniversary and the church union. In 1931 the mission band was formed with Mrs. Wm. Dodds as leader. This was a great success. The depression hit in 1929, although badly felt here, the Ladies showing their Christian Spirit, sent large bales of clothing to others in more need. The young people paid to have the church wired in 1931 while the ladies paid the hydro bill ever Lost again Someone gave me a compass for my car last Christmas. Could they be trying to tell • me something? One advantage of living near Lake Huron is that I always know which way is west. Wheal lose sight of the water, my sense of direction sometimes fouls up. The most__ embarrassing episode occurred in Goderich a few years ago. My aunt, uncle and cousins from London visited us, and one night I decided to show them around "my town". While my uncle drove, I gave directions. Touring the Square was simple; branching onto the side streets presented more of a challenge. Going around a block in Goderich is unlike going around a block anywhere else. We spent about twenty minutes trying to get back to the Square. Some people still take great deli ght in reminding me of that night. More.recently a friend and I travelled to Barrie. We found the hospital. where she applied for work. After lunch, we attempted to leave the city the same way we entered, on Highway 27. We followed the signs until we reached a construction zone. Detours pop up in the most inconvenient places! After we detoured, we couldn't find the right highway. We pulled into a garage parking lot on Highway 11 to study the map. In a few minutes. with renewed confidence, we left. Ten minutes later we returned to the service station. This time we thought we'd better buy gas and ask the attendant for directions. Fifteen minutes later we passed the pumps again. This time we kept going. We knew we were headed south, and we decided one road was as good as any other. A trip to the west coast this summer supplied two friends and me with countless opportunities to become lost. In The school is alive again after two months of solitude! Bells are ringing, the periods end, children in the halls are hurrying to a new class. Teachers are busy with lessons in the classrooms, and the yard is filled at recess and noon hour with colour, movement, and laughter. Everyone seems glad to be back, anticipating a happy, busy year „ahead. Kindergarten has a high enrollment of 65. Mrs. Gemmel], the Kindergarten teacher, has been assisted by Mrs. Scroggs, Brucefield, and Mrs. Shaw, Exeter in introducing the little ones .to school routines.

We had the address of a friend, who lived on the west side. She worked until 5 p.m., and we arrived in the city at 1; we had lots of time to find her apartment. What happens when three newcomers want to go in three different directions? Chaos! The hometown drivers showed little patience for cars bearing foreign li cence plates. Horns honked, passe rsby glared, and we shou ted at each other. The correct route was the one none of us chose. We ended up in the northeastern part of the city. When we sighted a phone booth, we dialed our friend's number and pleaded, "Come and get us." Cities and towns weren't the only pla s that caused us problems. We camped Vancouver Island. In the evening, we drove ten miles to the nearest village, which was bordered by forest on two sides and by the ocean 'on the west side. It contained ab out ten streets with a grocery store , a clothing store, a church, a school, a couple of garages and a few homes. How could anyone become lost in such a small place? it was easy. After we drove down several dead-ends and backtracked, all the buildings looked the same. ' My friends and I aren't the only ones who lose their sense of direction. Two carloads of people travelled from Stratford to Toronto. On the return trip, they met each other on the 401. One of the cars was obviously headed in the wrong direction. And by the way, both drivers were male. I'm not the only person who gets lost.
