Kathy Reid is eight years old
and already a veteran. Kathy,
from Sudbury, was the youngest
competitor to compete in the
sixth annual Ontario Fiddler's
Contest held in Hensall June 18
and 19. This is the fourth year in a
row that she has played, each
year being the youngest com-
petitor. At the other end of the
scale were Henry Adkins,
Hensall and Albert Romphe of
Parkhill, who were the oldest
competitors in the event, both
playing at the age of 83.
All three were part of a group
of 81 people who came from as far
away as the Northwest
Territories and California to
compete in the contest that drew
just under 3,000 people and
handed out $3,000 in prize money.
Many of the spectators took
advantage of the camping
facilities provided by the
organizers although a low point
on the weekend was the poor
turnout for the movie "American
Grafitti" sponsored by the
Kinettes and shown Saturday
afternoon.
Ed Gyurki, a Woodstock
native, took top honors in the
open class beating out Ron Reed
of Sudbury and Elanor Townsend

Arena needs
•
some repair
Hensall council is planning
structural changes for the arena
to comply with saftey regulations.
However, as a good deal of work
was done on the arena last year,
the changes remaining will not
be drastic.
Last year $35,000 was spent in
fixing the arena. The money
used last year was from taxation,
but Hensall clerk Bob Heil says
council wants to do as much as
possible with donations this
year to take advantage of as many
grants as possible. No cost esti-
mates on the work to be done
have been carried out, and coun-
cil has not bugeted for the
further construction necessary.
A fund-raising committee and
chairman will likely be appointed
at the next regular meeting of
the Hensall council.

Is the Gospel relevent in the
quest for peace in the world
today?
"Nothing else is!" according
to Dr. Carey Joynt who spoke to
the congregation of the Hensall
United Church on Sunday.
Dr. Joynt, a native of Hensall
and a former member of the
congregation at Hensall United,
is Rathbone Professor of Inter-
national Relations at Lehigh
University in Bethleham, Penn-
sylvania. He is currently ruling
Elder and Clerk of the Session at
First Presbyterian Church, Beth-
leham.
Dr. Joynt's address, entitled
"Prospects For Peace" was
divided into two parts: the dismal
situation in the world today with
nation warring against nation and
secondly, the only possible
solution to the problem, the
Christian faith.
Dr. Joynt touched on the
prospects for peace in the world
today, mentioning the violence
and strife which appears un-
ending. He said that 280 billion
dollars is being spent in the
world each year on armaments.
":After 25 years in scholarship,
I 'know they have no answer for ;
peace." said Dr. Joynt. He
quoted historian John Wheeler
Bennet whose recent works on
the world's history concluded that
our generation has a tragic sense
job failure. Peace, Mr. Bennett
concluded, now rests in only
nuclear deterents.
"What has gone wrong? Why
is western civilization morally
bankrupt and without leader-
ship?" asked Dr. Joynt.
He suggested the situation
was a reflection on the present
spiritual state of man.
"Greed, fear and insecurity
produce war and injustice."
said Dr. Joynt. "It is a sign of
spiritual decay and it is not
just the statesmen of the world
who are to blame. Any gathering
today has enough distrust and
hate to start three wars."
Dr. Joynt described our pre-
sent society as without ultimate
reference; a secular society ruled
by secular rules. It is a world
in which men rely not on God, but
on themselves.
He said that although he had
painted a bleak picture of the
possibility for world peace, he
cautioned the congregation not
to despair.
"The Christian faith is capable of
renewal." said Dr. Joynt.
"Christ is a world changing
force."
He concluded by stating that
the people of the world must look
to Christ, "Not just for a peaceful
world, but for one which ack-
nowledges Jesus Christ."
Following the service, Dr.
Joynt joined Rev. Donald Beck at
an informal reception period
where members of the congre-
gation asked questions on the
address and discussed many
points with Dr. Joynt.
