UCW bazaar draws crowd,
afternoon units' topic 'Doors'
While children played in a
games room specifically
arranged for them or fished from
the fish pond, their mothers
browsed among the tables of the
United Church bazaar on which
many articles were attractively
displayed.
Ladies of the UCW had been
preparing for this event for
several weeks and shoppers
found everything from Christmas
decorations, knitted and sewing
goods to plants and vegetables.
The baking table proved to be
the most popular which at the
beginning of the sale was laden
Nostalgia is big these days, as
we reminisce about the way
things used to be.
Hallowe'en pranks used to be
mischievous not malicious. The
tricksters were content to soap
windows or to move mailboxes.
Older people tell stories about
upset out houses.
The treats were equally har-
mless. Hallowe'en kisses,
suckers, peanuts and home-made
candy were the traditional treats.
Most people good-naturedly gave
them to the tiny ghosts and
goblins. Until the last few years,
we heard no reports of razor
blades in apples and moth balls in
chocolates.
We used to look forward to
Christmas, because it was a
special time of the year. Now we
complain about the expense and
the bother of the holiday.
When my sister was young, she
had one doll and the doll had a
couple of dresses. She also played
with a tin doll house but spent
most of her time trying to keep
the rickety roof in place.
I owned more playthings
because,as she outgrew her toys,I
played with hers as well as my
own. My sister and I were both
happy, though; we thought we
had lots of toys.

with tasty cookery. Mrs, Thelma
Russell, president of the UCW,
reported most of it was cleared
out in less than 45 minutes.
After making their purchases,
many of the ladies stopped at the
tea room, held in the church
parlour, for a leisurely cup of tea
with friends.
Mrs, Russell commented, "It
was a beautiful day, a wonderful
crowd and we are very pleased
with the results."
Over one thousand dollars was
netted for the work of the church.
Afternoon units
The afternoon Units of Exeter
We used to think a 5c ice cream
cone was a real treat — a
recollection that makes me feel
ancient.
A good time meant going to a
movie and eating a hamburger
afterward. The show cost $1.00
and the hamburger, 25c,
Most people, who are my age
and older, used to skate on out-
door rinks. In the country, the
kids spent two hours clearing the
snow off a farmer's pond. Then
they skated for one hour.
Sometimes rubber boots took the
place of skates.
To warm the skaters af-
terward, the mothers served hot
chocolate and home-made
cookies.
The teachers used to know the
names of all the students.
The mailman used to deliver
our newspapers and letters six
days a week and on some
holidays, on which other workers
relaxed. Before my time, he
travelled by horse and buggy. In
the winter, he bucked the
snowdrifts in a cutter.
Neither rain nor hail nor sleet
nor snow kept the mail from, the
boxes.
The doctor used to visit the
house, when someone was sick;
house calls were common. Some
medical doctors still make house
calls, but they're too busy to do it
regularly. An answering service
often tells the patient to go to the
emergency department of the
hospital.
The last doctor to fight his way
to our farm in a blinding
snowstorm at one a.m. was a
veterinarian.
The farmers used to exchange
their work. Large threshing
crews moved from farm to farm
harvesting the crops. The work
was hard, but there was always
time for good-natured ribbing. A
fellowship existed that is missing
from our modern mechanisms
and businesslike dealings.
The neighbours used to see
each other closer than from
passing cars.
How things have changed!
Said the wife to her husband:
"Aside from spending money,
what other luxury do I allow
myself?"
United Church U.C.W. met
November 13.
Mrs. Wellington Brock was in
charge taking as her topic
"Jesus, the door to Salvation."
She compared Zacchaeus who
readily accepted Jesus' in-
vitation and the rich young ruler
who closed the door and went
sorrowfully away. She was
assisted by Mrs. R. Batten
speaking on "The Door of
Faith," Mrs, H. May on "The
Door of my Lips", and Mrs. A,
Hamilton on "The Door of
Opportunity,"
Mrs, F. King played a number
of familiar hymns.
Mrs. R. E. Russell announced a

meeting. The devotional was
taken by Mrs. J. Corbett on The
Meaning of Remembrance.
