Mr. & Mrs. Arnold Merner, Zurich, quietly celebrated their 50th Wed-
ding Anniversary Sunday, April 17, at their home. An open house for
relatives and 'family was held on Sunday afternoon. As Mrs. Merner
had just returned from the hospital, a surprise dinner party for .
relatives and family had to be cancelled. Relatives from St. Catharines,
Toronto, Detroit, Kitchener, London, Tillsonburg, Dashwood, Hensall,
Clinton and Zurich attended. Mr. Merner and his wife, the former
Isabel.' Kyle, were married in Detroit, Michigan, and moved to the farm
in Hay Township in 1930, where they farmed until their retirement in
1969. Since that time they have lived at their present home in Zurich.
They have two daughters, Marjorie (Mrs. Hubert Schilbe), Zurich; Don-
na, Toronto; and three sons, William, London; Robert, Zurich; and
Larry, RR 3, Zurich. A son, Arnold Jr., predeceased in 1970. They also
have 12 grandchildren and one great grandchild. They received many
cards of congratulations, including a plaque from Premier Davis, Prime
Minister Trudeau, R.E. McKinley, MP and Jack Riddell, MPP.

By ELAINE TOWNSHEND
I stand corrected,
A few weeks ago -I wrote a
column about cartoons and
nursery rhymes. I tried to make
the point that, if we're concerned
about children being exposed to
violence, we should consider the
violence contained in many so-
called "children's stories."
Unfortunately, I did not
research my subject thoroughly
enough.
When my fifteen-year-old
nephew and my thirteen-year-old
niece read the column, they cried
in unison, "You sure blew that
one, Elaine!" (It's the first time
I've heard them agree on
anything for years.)
Where did I go wrong?
"For one thing," Jan began,
"the queen didn't hire a witch to
give the poison apple to Snow
White. She did it herself."
"That's not the way I
remember it," I challenged.
You're too old to remember,"
she retorted.
Then Dave took over, "Chopper
doesn't save Tweety from the
pussy cat. Chopper saves Yankee
Doodle from Fibber Fox."
"Not Yankee Doodle," David,"
Jan chipped in. "It's Yakky
Doodle."
"Oh yea. Well, anyway,
Chopper saves Yakky from
Fibber Fox."
"Then who saves Tweety from

the Puddy Cat?" I asked in
bewilderment.
"Granny with her umbrella."
I finally told them that I had
contemplated asking their advice
before I wrote the column, but I
feared, if I mentioned cartoons to
a fifteen-year-old and a thirteen-
year-old, I'd hear angry retorts,
such as "How should we know?
Cartoons are for kids!"
"Our little brother watches
cartoons all the time," Dave
explained charitably, "so we are
bound to pick up a few things."
Then, with carefully chosen
words, he drove home the point,
which was the main reason he
and Jan had begun the con-
versation. "It's not that we watch
The Easter Thankoffering
meeting of the afternoon units 1
and 2 of Exeter United Church
Women was held Thursday after-
noon. The devotional was taken
by Mrs. Wm. Thomson, Mrs. H.
Pollen, Miss Della McKee and
Mrs. W. Witmer.
A medley of songs by Mrs. R.
Dinney and Mrs. G. Sereda, ac-
companied by Mrs. A. Willard
was enjoyed. The titles of which
made a little story, Since Jesus
Came Into My Heart, I Found the
Answer, His Name Is Wonderful
thus making us wish for a Man-
sion Over the Hilltop ending with
a prayer Give Us This Day.
The Easter message was very
capably given by Mrs. Art
Whilsmith, centering on the
Resurrection. Speaking of
women libbers, Jesus was the
greatest liberator of women. Let
us look back to one of our sisters
involved, Mary Magdalene, who
had the great honor to speak with
the Risen Christ. Mary
Magdalene was first mentioned
in Luke as a scarlet woman, who
came from the town of Magdala,
a rough town, even to this day.
Christ cleansed her, for which
she loved and cared for Jesus.
Also Johanna, noblewoman
whose husband was in Herod's
court was another woman that
He cared for, thus Jesus made no
difference with these women of
different backgrounds.
Because of Jesus caring for

them now, but we're young. And
it's not that long ago that we did
watch them. That's why we can
remember. It's so long since you
were a kid, it's impossible for you
to remember."
(I can't even recall whether
cartoons were shown on TV way
back when I was a kid, but I
didn't admit it. Besides, I was
surprised he would concede that
television could have been in-
vented before I was born.)
"Things have changed a lot
since you were a kid." Jan added.
And Dave nodded his head in
agreement, when she concluded,
"The next time you want to write
something about the younger
generation you'd better ask us
first."
Mary Magdalene she loved and
cared for Him. Thus she followed
Him to the cross, His disciples
foresook Him, not Mary because
she loved Him. Jesus had
forgiven her. When Jesus was
taken from the cross Mary
followed to the tomb. Love made
her follow Him in life as well as
death. It is said that Jesus died
at 3 o'clock and had to be buried
before 6, because of the Jewish
Sabbath. Mary watched as they
prepared Jesus body for burial.
It is said the greatest scene of
Recognition was at the tomb
after Jesus had risen and Mary
was there, looking into the empty
tomb, weeping, wondering where
her Lord had gone when a voice
behind her asked why she was
weeping, and she turned and
recognized Jesus and called Him
Master.
So many of us look at the emp-
ty tomb, of our loved ones, feel-
ing sorry for ourselves. But let
us think of the Resurrection as a
new beginning. Jesus Christ is
Risen, knowing this we have Joy,
Peace and Hope. Mrs. James
Smith thanked Mrs. Whilsmith,
on behalf of the ladies.
