Should YOU pre-arrange
your Funeral?
The wise head of every fam.:
ily takes care to prepare a Will
and carry .ample Life Insurance
with one unselfish motive in
mind to assure his family of
security and peace of mind.
Doesn't it make sense then
that one should pre-arrange his
funeral and leave instructions as
to his wishes?
Generally speaking, should it not be YOUR responsibility
to arrange YOUR funeral?
Any member of the Ontario Funeral Service Association
will sit down and discuss pre-arrangement with you without
obligation. Why leave this task to someone else?

home this year

Christian Family Sunday was
observed in the United Church
when Rev, & Mrs. Madden and
son Paul, shared the service of
worship. Paul read the first
Scripture, Mrs. Madden the
second and also was the speaker
for the day.
She took as her' theme
"Christian Family Day", using
Paul's second letter to Timothy
as her guideline. Paul said "I
remember the sincere faith of
your grandmother Lois and your
mother Eunice" and our faith
today is often transmitted
through parents and grand-
parents, instilling in us a wish to
live Christian lives, We cannot
always leave material wealth
behind, but we certainly can
leave our Christian influence.
The Junior choir sang a
beautiful number "Come, Your
Hearts and Voices Raising". The
flowers in the Sanctuary were in
loving memory of Mrs. Helen
Carling, placed by her daughter,
and from the funeral of the late
Alton Isaac.

for stray dogs

rn resPonse to complaints from
several citizens about dog4
running loose in the village, the
council Monday night voted a
bylaw antendtnent so that fines of
up to $50 can be levied for dogs
that are either unlicensed or
running loose,
"%Verve got to take action on
this." said Reeve. Ivan Hearn. He
told council about a pack of five
dogs that have been seen at one
end of the village.
One of the dogs in the pack is
from Biddulph township the
Reeve said, They don't have to tie
dogs there so it runs loose in
Lucan.
Mr. Hearn said that any dogs
caught in Lucan would be subject
to the fines regardless of where
the dog owner lived.
