Chambers Corners about midway between Dunnville and Pont Colborne (and certainly far from the hot spot of the Niagara Tourist Region) — was not our destination when my husband and I set put Friday evening for a. Shojrt' vacation.

Qff to .the slide -of the road in pur dead wagon, hubby thumbed through the op­ erator’s' manual in a. feeble at­ tempt to .find a way to correct the trouble., I, insisted it was the gener­ ator — I’ve experienced' the letdown -of a goofy generator on several occasions — but who would believe a woman would know anything about things like that , . . so hubby Icept on reading and searching in his trusty booklet. ‘ Meanwhile, by chance, two young' ball ’ players with the London Po’ntiacs saw our dis­ tress signaland, stopped to help. They peered initio the si­ lent engine and then, along with hubby perused the silly manual. - ' I continued .to insist it Was the generator and-no one but a skilled metoariiC could get the vehicle running safely again. .' The boys offered a ride to the nearest service station, but .here the meclhanic was baby­ sitting and couldn’t leave. He had more good news for us — no one dould be persuaded to go put at this time pf night, I’ll always be indebted Jo 'hose two London Pontiacs. The boys drove us back to, our im­ mobilized oharioit, helped us'get it safely off the road, loaded us up and transported us and' our baggage to the nearest motel, some <ten. miles away. They even woke the proprietor and saw us 'safely inside the friendly door before leaving us. Who says to­ day’s 'teens are all bad? Next mbrning we awoke to find ourselves in Corners -— where isn’t.

Funpy part 'of toe whole thing was that only one wteckr er was ’available in -the whole settlement» - * and too owner of if was too busy reading tilife morning paper to, .care much about our plight, -, But after he had read Bugs Bunny and;Anne Landers, hub­ by was off'with him on a wild, ride — 30 miles an hour all the. way to Dunnville! I was left behind’ to spend what turned out tp be five glorious hours ip sleepy Chambers Coppers! The little diner'at the motel was locked tight, The general store across the way said “Closed”. No one stirred .that Saturday morning. The only live < thing was the television and it was showing .cartoons, re-runs at that, A trip on root down the highway netted breakfast at a little garage, but one can only spend, so much (time over coffee and an egg so it was back to, the fun-filled motel room. ' Hubl>y returned with the Oar. Without regret, I left Cham­ bers Corners . . , but not for long. A short drive convinced us the car, though running, was definitely not repaired and I was wisked back to Chambers Corner's where my husband sug­ gested I rest until he came for me again. One look around and I plead­ ed to go on' wiith him to the garage. There at least I could talk to someone, even if jit was only toe mechanic. Oh, by the w<ay, the trouble with the car was the generator. I may not have had a very,ex­ citing holiday in Chambers Cor­ ners, but I gained the respect of my husband who learned I knew whereof I spoke when it came to that particul'ar brand of car.- breakdown.

(News-Record Photo) ONE-THIRD OFF ALL MAX FACTOR TOILETRIES VITAMINS and COUGH SYRUPS All at One-Third Off Letter To The Editor / Christian Day Schools Explained By Local Calvin Christian Board Editor, News-Record, Clinton, Ontario. Dear Sir: From an article ’ in last week’s paper one could get the impression that the Calvin Christian School is a Christian Reformed Church School. , We desire to make it_ clear that this is not the case, The Calvin Christian School is a parent controlled sichdol, and is being operated by the Calvin Christian School Soc­ iety. This society consists of members who believe that children should receive scrip- turally directed education. Since there is nothing secre­ tive about this school move­ ment, we hereby submit for your information a statement of our Basis- Article’ and Edu­ cational- Creed: Basis Article The Supreme Standard of the Christian School Society, .for elementary education shall,; be the Scriptures of toe Old Jand New Testaments, which wp Re­ lieve to be toe Word' of *Qod, as they are thus- confessed, e.g.,- in . Articles 3-7 of the Belgic Confession. Educational Creed Believing that the Lord God, by' graciously giving us toe Scriptures, has revealed,to His people ordering principles in­ tensely relevant to' education, and mandates man to bring the whole Word of God to bear- in all it's power . upon educa­ tion, we confess: 1. LIFE. That human life in its entirety is religion, for God created men to serve Him everywhere, and requires us to educate our children for His service. 2. BIBLE. That .the Bible as the written Word of God is toe Truth by which the Holy Spirit .enlightens our understanding of God, ourselves and the world, and the infallible authority by which Tie- directs and governs all our activities, including the education of our children: 3.

Lunch was 'served. preservation storation, it ■ Triune God, and since the glori­ fication of His Name- is. its .pur­ pose, we can understand the world rightly only in its rela­ tion to Him. 4, MAN. That man was cre­ ated in the image of God to en­ joy covenanted fellowship -with his Creator and to reflect in his person and works the ex­ cellencies of his Maker, and was instructed to exercise dom­ inion over the world in strict and loving obedience to God and to .interpret all reality in accordance with His design and law. 5. SIN. That sin is disobedi­ ence of God’s law and that man, by sinning, forsook his office and task, estranged himself from God and, 'hjs neighbour, and brought God’s curse ■ upon the creation. As a result, man has become corrupt in heart and blind to the. true' meaning of life "and represses- and mis­ uses the knowledge of God which confronts him in crea­ tion and in Scripture.- , 6.- ’CHRIST. That Jesus. Christ, of Whom -the Scriptures testify, Who is truly God ancl fully man, has reconciled the world to God and redeemed our life in lits entirety. Through His Spirit He renews our heart to love God and our neighbour, and redirects bur understanding to know rightly God, ourselves and toe world. 7. THE KINGDOM OF GOD. That the Kingdom of God is His righteous and universal regime through Jesus Christ, Whose rule in grace and power makes education possible and meaningful. Tn obedience to Christ we submit in every area of life to His commandment to love tpe Lord with all our heart and mind. 8. PURPOSE OF EDUCA­ TION. That the purpose of Christian education, is to direct and guide the child to commit his heart to Christ the Truth, to- attain to understanding, wisdom and righteousness, and to perform his competent and responsible service of the Lord in church, state and society. 9. PARENTS. That God has given parents the responsibility to nurture and educate their children, Therefore, parents should establish and maintain schools. 10. ,THE CHILD. That the child, entrusted by God to- par­ ents, needs ordering, correction ana ultimate re­ tire -.work oif the and instruction. Children of the Christian home are a heritage of the Lord and share in the promises and the demands of the covenant. Hence they ought to receive Christian education. 11. THE TEACHER. That the teacher, as servant of God, exercise authority in the per­ formance -of his office 'in edu­ cating the child in the school. 12. THE CHRISTIAN SCH­ OOL. That the Christian school is an institution established and controlled by an association of Christian believers, to function in education in total and volun­ tary submission to- Christy the King.
