ONTARIO STREET UNITED CHURCH - HOME BAKING re WING AND PRODUCE' TEA 35g SPONSORED BY UCW It is humbling to admit de­ pendency on something- as-.sig rilficanf as ri sot of keys. If it was even something larger-^ like a computer for instance — it wouldn’t be so degrading. But for an adult-to stand help­ less and in despair over the loss of several notched .pieces of metal seems to be the height of embarrassment. It was only recently that I had this shattering experience. My ring of keys was nestled tn the soft interlining of my daughter’s ski jacket and was jogging merrily off in the di­ rection of the school more than TERM INSURANCE ON THE BEST TERMS ot your service david s.

This day was different- I recalled with a sickening churn in my stomach that I had entrusted, my keys to my little girl — and that we- both had forgotten to see that .they got back to ■the safety of my bag. It wouldn’t matter, I told my­ self, if my life was at stake, Without that, set of keys, I could go nowhere and do noth­ ing.
