Our cost for bulk power from Ontario Hydro has increased by 9.8%. However, due to favourable economic factors and ex­ port sales experienced in 1978, Ontario Hydro will pass on to the Exeter Public Utilities Commission a rebate estimated to b? $41,899.00. This rebate which will be spread over the entire year has reduced your increase for electricity to an average of 6.6%. It is not expected that this "windfall" will occur every year and it is possible that an increase Jn rates for 1980 could be con­ siderably higher.

Church news At the United Church Rev. Elwood Morden conducted the service for the second Sunday in Advent and took the text for his sermon from John 11, v. 56, using the theme “Oh the wonder of it all”. Christ is being crowded out of Christmas said Rev. Morden. Department stores with their dazzling displays to tempt you to buy gifts you can’t afford, Christmas is big business, this sacrilegiousness has turned Christ’s birthday into a holiday rather than a Holy day. As the service was con­ ceited last Sunday owing to weather conditions, the first and second candles in the Advent wreath were lit. Julie McRobert and Joanne Goos performed the ceremony. The Sunday School pupils took part in a unique tree­ decorating ceremony by placing religious symbols made of white styrofoam and gold tinsel on the tree at the front of the church. Each symbol was explained to the congregation by the older pupils. Leroy Bryan, chairman of the board of stewards gave a report on the financial success of the recent beef dinner sponsored by the stewards and also thanked the social convener of the general UCW, the ladies serving on the Board of Stewards and .all the units of the UCW for helping to make the project a great success. At St. Thomas Anglican Church Rev. Mary Mills conducted the service for the second Sunday in Advent and took her sermon from Revelations which was a review of the miracles about the burning bush and Moses and the plagues. Charlene and Paul Acres performed the ceremony of lighting the first and second candles in the Advent wreath.
