10,000 miles seems to be a
good checking point for such
car life essentials as plugs,
points, wiring, shock
absorbers.
One of the great killers on the
road is drivers' inattention,
caused by boredom, anxiety,
anger, or such "accidentals"
as sneezes and bees.
The average 1925 car traveled
about 25,750 miles before it
was scrapped. Today's
average scrapping time comes
at 110,000 miles.
To give your battery a chance
to recover, don't engage your
starter for more than 10
seconds at a (hard-starting)
time,
*
Your best passing speed is
about 15 miles faster than the
other car.
If you're planning on heavy
highway driving, how about a
thorough safety check first at

ance, restoring the home to the traditional colonial style.

siding.

special offer should call.
Christians today.
Mr. Burghardt told his
audience it's not good enough to
meet for an hour once a week or
sit around saying we love, we
love, we love.
"People who love," he con-
tinued, "take action. As God's
people we have to be ready to
accept the responsibility of in-
fluence in the worlds of business,
labour, politics, education, social
attain,: and endeavors of every
kind."
Panel discuss
Christian "role
A panel of Mrs. Marion
Dykeman, Mrs. Marilyn
Zivkovic, Mrs, Celia Thomson
and Richard Ottewell moderated
by Mrs. Gwyn Whilsmith
discussed "Why be a Christian"
and "What it is to be a Christian"
at the general meeting of the
Exeter United Church UCW
Monday evening.
The participants were in-
troduced by Mrs. Bev. Rabbets
and the program was arranged
by the Wednesday Morning
Coffee club which is a group of
young mothers who meet Wed-
nesday mornings at the United
Church.
Besides conducting a study
program and sharing their ideas
with each other these young
women support a child in Viet-
nam.
Mrs. Beth Batten, unit leader of
group II, led the devotional and
the president, Mrs. Robert
Coates conducted the business.
The speaker said unless. God's
people think as God's people, talk
as God's people and act as God's
people they will play no role in
the emerging world where hard
decisions have to be made.
"Christ did not hesitate to enter
every aspect of human
life .. and a real Christian will
not shut himself behind cloistered
walls but will be more apt to be
found dictating an inter-office
memo, nailing a rafter in place or
debating a proposed by-law at a
local council meeting."
He said too many people are
loners . . in their daily activity
and in their faith. "We live in the
unbiblical error that mature
people ought to live close to their
vests and be adequate on their
own strength."
He emphasized the need of
fellowship with others of kindred
minds and the necessity of
meeting with a few spontaneous,
joyous people who love us in spite
of what we are. If we are unable
to do this, the speaker warned,
we are missing a crucial part of
the reason we were born and are
headed for spiritual danger.
Mr. Burghardt further stressed
that Christians need courage to
put their faith into action; that
they are called to be agents of
reconciliation and, like Jesus'
first followers, are not bound by
dogma but by the unity of pur-
poses.
"Let us not give up on God's
world," he concluded. "Let there
be within each one of us, the
reality of faith-like-it-is. Faith
that spells out Christian op-
timism, which insists the best is
yet to come."
Included in the evening's
program were trumpet and piano
duets by David French and Don
Luther of London. They played
renditions of He and The Holy
City.
Mrs. Marilyn Zivchovic, gifted
local artist, sang Art Thou
Troubled by Handel, and How
Great Thou Art.
Christian Women's Club, which
sponsored the event, organized a
year ago for women of all
denominations.
They meet regularly the third
Friday of every month in Trivitt
Parish Hall at 9:30 a.m. for
coffee, Bible study and an ex-
change of ideas. All women in the
community are welcome.
