Mrs. A. McCall
The September meeting of the
8th and 16th unit of Duff's United
Church was held at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. Don McDonald.
Mrs. Don Fraser was in charge
of the devotional period, opening
with singing hymn, "Take time to
be holy". She read the scripture
from Psalm 105 followed by
prayer.
The topic was Dr. Goth from
London. Mrs. Fraser gave two
different readings pertaining to
01 Dr. Goth. "The awful question
what have we done with our life"
and 'Kep your eyes on Him". The
hymn "All people that on earth
do dwell" was read in unison and
"My friends say 'Ed, you look
so relaxed' and I am, I fe0
relaxed", says the new minister
at Duff's Church, Walton, Rev.
Ed. Baker, about how he's
enjoying his new location.
Mr.Baker, or Ed as he likes to
be called, is a relaxed, informal
man. He says that it is important
to him that people feel
comfortable in church and want to
`come back:
He is struck by 'the fact that .
Duff's United has probably a
higher percentage of regular
attenders than many city
churches do.
In this area people go to church
every week, and you don't .get the
startling increase in attendance
on special occasions that y ou see
in the cities.
Ed. Baker comes to Duff's in
Walton, and also the United
Church on Moncrief, from
Lambeth. Although he's been a
minister since he was ordained
after graduation from St,
Andrew's College, the University
of Saskatchewan, in 1953, he
hasn't been in a parish for four
years.
¤ The new minister is divorced
and his two children live with
their mother in London. He
wanted to minister to a congre-
gation within driving distance of
that city so that he can see his
children regularly.
He replaces Rev. Derwin
Docken who has moved to the
United Church in Dorchester.
After he graduated Mr.Baker
*served for 10 years as a
missionary in Korea, just after
the war ended, from 1953-63. He
saw farmers there having to make
a living on two and a half acres of
land or starve.
He says what he saw in Korea
convinced him that Canadians
have to learn to share resources
with the rest of the world,
"We've been on a materialistic
drunk," he says.."You hear all

Mrs. Don McDonald read the/ Achilles opened the meeting in
minutes, A thank- the usual manner and welcomed
the members and guests. Mrs.
Herb Traviss was pianist for the
evening..
The 4-H Garden Club• put on
their skit the "Walton Weedin'
Wonders". Those taking part
were Mary Alice Ryrr and Laura
Dennis.
Jane Schade introduced the
rest of the club members. The
leaders were Mrs. Pearl
McCallum ' and Mrs. Trevor
Smith.
A moment's silence was held in
memory of a faithful Institute
member and a 4-H leader, the
late Mrs. Ethel Leeming.
Minutes were read by Mrs.
Ken McDonald, the roll call,
the talk about wage and price
controls, what about, self
control ?" Too often he feels, our
attitude is "Grab all you can."
Mr. 'Baker says part of his job
as a minister is weaning people
away from too much materialism.
He is enjoying his new
congregation and the Walton
community.
He. knows something about
farming becau,se,4„, he liyale„pn a
Middlesex county farm' until he
was 17. Then his family moved to
Saskatchewan and his father
farmed. out there.
His father went west because
the climate was better for his
asthma and bronchitis. He started
out as a sharecropper and now
has 2100 acres there. '
Mr. Baker has been very active
in the London chapter of an
organization for widowed and
divorced people called Parents
Without Partners. The club
organizes family activities like
camping and sports.
His children, Bruce, 13, and
Cathy, 10, go with their dad to
PWP activities and have been to
visit him at the manse.
His experiences in Korea
taught Ed. Baker that we'
shouldn't take the standard of
living that we enjoy here for grant
ed. He went to Korea as a
missionary because he felt a
responsibility to get involved.
• He wanted to do more than
remember fallen soldiers on
Remembrance Day.H e wanted to
help clean up the mess after the
war and help Korea plan for the
future.
Since he came to Walton at the
beginning of July he's been
getting involved there too. Mr.
Baker helped organize the
meeting that the community had
to discuss the Walton Hall.
Although no motion came out of
the Meeting, the minister says it
served a purpose by getting open
discussion on the matter. There
were undercurrents being talked
about before but the meeting got
things out in public.
A badly needed new roof on the
hall will probably result.
Mr. Baker isn't your traditional
awe inspiring minister in a white
collar. He's a down to earth
informal man who sees being
involved in the community as part
of his ministry.
He likes to be approachable.
Call the Duff's manse these days
and you'll hear, "The manse, Ed
speaking".
