Mousseau Drain.
Regarding the drain,
Reeve Harold Knight said he
thought council should let
the people know that a
storm sewer project is being
started in Hensall because it
is going to affect their taxes.
“It’s definitely going to be
a debenture issue.” he said
and added that it would be
debentured over quite a few
years.
“It’s going to be about a 10
mill increase in our taxes,”
he told the councillors.
The remuneration for the
reeve and councillors and
salaries of the works
superintendent were set.

Unit I of the Hensall UCW
met Thursday with Mrs. Wm
Fuss presiding.
Mrs. Fuss gave an Easter
Devotional message, “In the
Upper Room,” noting that
the night before he was
crucified, Jesus made a
promise to his Disciples
“Truly, truly I say to you, he
who believes in me will also
do the works that I do; and
greater works than these will
he do because I go to the
Father.”
After the death of Jesus,
eleven ordinary men went
out to continue the religious
movement that he had
started and they eventually
prevailed against the Roman
Empire. They continued his
ministry of teaching, healing
and redemption. They were
no longer ordinary men, but
men being used by the spirit
of Christ. The mighty works
of Christ can be mediated
only through people whose
lives are open to His power.
Have we helped to make
the kingdom of God a reality
in the Church and the world?
Lodges conduct
euchre contest
The C.P.T. Committee of
the Oddfellow and Rebekah
Lodges held a Euchre party
on Thursday evening. Prize
winners were: ladies’ Mrs.
Elizabeth Riley; ladies’
consolation, Mrs. Joe Car
ter; Gent’s Ross Richard
son; gent’s consolation, Eric
Mansfield; lone hands,
Clarence Volland; lucky
draw on fruit, Mrs. Clarence
Volland;
If we believe in Him and
yield our lives to Him in faith
and obedience, Christ’s
ministry will be continued
through us.
This message was followed
by prayer and Mrs. Beck
gave a very interesting story
about Winston Brown, who
as a first year theological
student from Jamaica, came
to Toronto University in 1968.
He was faced with the un
believable progress of a city
of mammoth highways,
large and numerous cars,
neon lights and sky scrapers.
He was suddenly concious of
being black in a white
country. He was a very
lonely man in this large city.
He had trouble finding part
time work. The church
where membership was fifty
percent black always had a
white pastor. They admitted
white churches had no place
for black ministers, so the
only church offered him for
his services was the
historically all black church.
Winston Brown graduated
from the University of
Toronto. For three years he
was minister of First Baptist
Church, Toronto. In 1976 he
was appointed by the
Toronto Conference of the
United Church of Canada as
a West Indian staff worker.
An invitation was received
during ;the business period to
visit Kippen UCW on April
11. Volunteer transportation
to the Day Care at Huron-
view was discussed. Mrs.
Fuss closed the meeting with
an Easter poem. Mrs. Jack
Consitt and Mrs. G. Mid
dleton had St. Patrick’s Day
decor

year.
Hensall was allocated
$21,800. in subsidy monies
for their 1978 road expen
diture. Gary Maxwell, road
superintendent, said in
order for them to receive
that amount they would
have to spend $43,600. He
said they had worked' out a
maintenance budget and
construction budget to meet
that allocation subsidy.
He said he thought they
could use some of the con
struction money they have
to open up a portion of Ox
ford Street.
He told council they could
use about $8,000 of the
money to get the road dug
out, get the sanitary sewers
put in and to get a good road
bed putin.
He said that the cost of the
sanitary sewers and the 250
feet of road involved would
be in the neighbourhood of
$8,100 if they did it
themselves.
The possibility of es
tablishing a vehicle license
bureau in Hensall as well as
a liquor outlet was discussed
