Several other institutes were invited to take part and well over 100 ladies attended the af- ternoon event. Ladies from Elimville, Win- chelsea, Zion and Eden came together to form the first WI in that area, aided by members of the already organized Hurondale WI, The first meeting was held at the home of Mrs. Franklin Kirkton minister discusses p roposed union of churches Skinner, and the first executive was composed of: president, Mrs, Kenneth Johns; secretary- treasurer, Mrs. Wm, Johns, first vice president, Mrs. Harold Hunter; second vice president, Mrs, Jackson Woods; assistant secretary-treasurer, Mrs. Gilbert Johns; and district director, Miss Ruth Skinner.

The "Mission" of the Church follows naturally from the "Faith"•of the Church, and so that section of 9 articles comes next. 'This section outlines the task of the Church in the world. It too takes very careful reading. The full implications have to be dug out. The section is weak in presenting the idea of "proclamation of the Good News of Christ", It is strong on the prophetic and serving aspects of the mission of the Church, but not strong enough on "proclaiming" BANGHART, KELLY, DOIG &CO. Chartered Accountants 476 Main St. S., EXETER 235-0120 Jesus as Saviour. There should be an article defining what the "Good News" is. Article 25 seems to imply that the prime duty of the Canadian Church is to be a "lady bountiful" of great empathy, but when one reads the whole section it becomes clear that this is not what is meant-. The article should be re-drafted. • The addition of the world "all" in article 28 is one example of a slight change that would make a great difference — "He has chosen ( the Church) as the bearer of his good news of forgiveness and new life, and as the agency through which he calls ALL men and women to repentance and commitment to Jesus Christ," Mrs. Ward Hern, Mrs. John Coward and Mrs. Jackson Woods. The two other 25-year members, Mrs. Judson Dykeman and Miss Ruth Skinner, were not able to attend. Although the membership has dropped from the 64 ladies in that first year, 1348-49, to the present 38 members, the WI has con- tinued to be very active, both within the group and in the community. They sponsor euchre parties throughout the winter months, sponsor three 4-H homemaking clubs with a total of about 35 members in Elimville and do some catering. Rather than giving gifts to the 25-year members, the WI decided to use the money to buy material for new drapes for the Elimville community hall. The ladies made the drapes themselves for the hall, where they hold their regular monthly meetings. The group itself is very active as well. In the course of the last year, they have taken classes in sewing and macrame, both taught by institute members. And in order to try to get ahead of the times, the members are studying the metric system. In this way, they hope to be prepared when Canada formally adopts the metric system. In addition, Elimville WI contributes to many worth-while causes in the district, including the Rehabilitation Adult Workshop for the mentally retarded in Dashwood; War Memorial Children's Hospital; the CNIB; and the Exeter Fair Board. They also donate both money and clothing to the Children's .Aid Society; support South Huron Hospital through tag day; attend Huronview Auxiliary meetings and help with the bazaar and birthday parties at Huronview. "We have a very active in- stitute," said this year's president, Mrs. Elson Lynn.

SAVARY Perhaps the most important section of the "Plan of Union" is the one entitled "Faith". This consists Of 13 'articles of ' very close theological writing. This section is so tightly written that it has to be read over carefully several times before all its im- plications are seen. In a few cases this is not satisfactory. Certain articles should be revised or expanded in order to make the meaning crystal clear. For example, it is the Christian faith that Jesus the Christ is the only Saviour of the world. To outsiders this is part of the "scandal" of the Christian faith, but it is a conviction that cannot be avoided when one reads the New Testament. Yet this fact of our faith is played down in the "Plan" so that one has to read both the sections on "Faith" and "mission" very carefully to see that it is implied. In the article on the Person of Christ, the addition of the words "only Saviour of the world" would make this fact clear. Another article of faith in the Anglican Church at least that does not appear clearly in the "Plan" is "the Second Coming of Christ", This has been un- derstood by Christians in dif- ferent ways, and that is fine. There should be no attempt to define its terms too closely, yet to omit it completely does not seem the right way to deal with it. A short phrase in any one of several of the articles in the "Faith" section would take care of this. This section includes articles stating the Church's acceptance of Baptism, the Lord's Supper, and the Ministry. These subjects will be dealt with when they come up later. This section also contains two other articles of which we should take note. Article 21 states that the faith of the Church is based upon the Holy Scriptures, "which we recognize and accept as the prophetic and apostolic witness to God's self-revelation and his mighty acts. Through the Bible the Church hears God's living word and receives it as the supreme rule of faith through which its life, teaching and worship are to be tested and renewed," Article 22 states that the Church "gratefully receives from the ancient church" the Apostles' and Nicene creeds and Other primitive statements of faith, and accepts them "as rehearsing the mighty acts of God recorded in the Holy Scriptures, as wit- nessing to the faith of the fathers, and as providing a bond of union With Christians of all ages throughout the world". This is the attitude toward these ancient statements which IS already held by most members of the uniting churches. The creeds are used not as enforced tests of or- thodoxy, but as proclamations of joyous faith. It is noticeable that there is in the plan no attempt to closely define dogma in terms of classical doctrine. For example, how the atonement takes place is not defined, but the fact of the atonement is stated. "Jesus Christ, the Sro of God and the True Man, gives us access to the Father in faith, fellowship With one another In love, and freedom to live in the world with hope," . .,• k t '30 r¢ : 4i44 4 4...,..,„.,„ A v,\ ,$: g> r .. .p-, 4 4 .r' 44.k „, • SAVE JUST ARRIVED . . . of CANDY TOFFEE . . . 3 BOXES $ 1 00 A New Shipment Smiles 'n Chuckles • TURTLES • EASTER • ENGLISH ON Peppermint Patties Handsaver By Playtex GLOVES 74 PAMPERS Reg. 99c While The y ei Last . ..
