WCTORM and VG GREY TRUST COMPANY SINCE 1889 C.I. Stief, Branch Manager, Listowel The Brussels United Church was the scene of much activity during the Centennial weekend. On Saturday afternoon the lad- les of the church served a smor- gasbord supper to more than nine hundred centennial celebrants. On Sunday morning impres- ive worship service was held for a capacity congregation which overflowed on to the church lawn. The service was conducted by the minister Rev. E. Le Drew. Four former ministers and the widow of one former minister were pre- sent and participated in the ser- vice. Rev. Hugh Wilson dedicated a lighted cross that had been placed at the rear of the sanctuary by the Hoover family in memory of Mr. and Mrs. R. J. Hoover. The background had been panell.r ed to enhance the beauty of the cross. Rev. Harry Mahoney led in prayer and brought greetings. Mrs. A. W. Barkerextended congratulations to Brussels and to the church. Rev. Andrew Lane of God- erich delighted all present with his humorous reminisences of his ministry, Rev. Allan Johnston read the scripture and then sum.arized his ministry in a poem which he had composed. All' were warmly applauded. The church choir with Mrs, Alice Pope Brothers at the organ and Mrs. Mary Davison Bryans at the piano sang two anthems. "Blessed Is The Nation" and "The Centennial Hymn". Mrs. Laurie Cousins and Murray Hoover rendered "Bless This House" as a duet. Rev. Derwyn Dockens address was "The Next. Hundred years". Following the service lunch was served on the church lawn where many renewed old acqu- aintances and friends which did not end until three o'clock. Rev. Le Drew went on hol- idays as of July 10th, and the services are discontinued until Sunday August 13th During that time, the congregation has been invited to attend services at Melville PresbyterianChurch.
