Times-Advocate, 1979-07-11, Page 25By MRS. E, SUMMERS GRANTON A number of Granton Woman's Institute members and their friends, boarded a Charterways bus Thursday bound for Brampton. The weather was ideal for such a trip. On our arrival we visited the council chambers and were welcomed by the Mayor's representative.This gentleman gave us a short municipal history of Brampton and Bramalea. Our next stop was at the Brampton 'Knitting Mills which is no longer in operation, but is a factory outlet for knitwear and yarn, There were many bargains which the ladies availed themselves of, Here the management treated us to sandwiches and coffee, which was greatly appreciated. After browsing through "The Bay" and other stores in a downtown •mall, we rode out to the Northern Telecom Building, which was the highlight of the trip. We were welcomed by a member of the executive and shown a film illustrating the history of the com- munications system, up to the present time, and projecting into the future. Northern Telecom manufactures equipment for the Bell Telephone Com- pany, which is marketed all over the world. Following a question period on the film, we were escorted through the plant in groups by a guide. This was a great learning experience, to see the operation of a plant such as this. We saw the whole process from two or .three small pieces of metal and many wires, to the Complete Unit. `Our next stop was the 'Sarah Lee Thrift Shop, where quite a few con- fections were purchased by the travellers. Then a visit to a Bramalea Park greenhouses con- taining exotic and Tropical plants. Heading for home we stopped at a Kitchener Mall for dinner at Simpson's Arcadian Court dining room, arriving home at Granton around 8:30 p.m. Credit for the success of this trip goes to Mrs. Clarence Lewis, who was responsible for the arrangements and to Bill McRoberts our driver for his patience and his interest in our welfare. Church news At the United Church, Rev, Elwood Morden conducted the Sunday morning worship and his sermon was entitled "The most IMportaht Gifts". It would be a good thing to ask what are the most im- portant thing in life, said Rev. Morden. What use is wealth, health, and talents, if we do not have Peace of Mind, this is God% best Gift. No one can enjoy life who hasn't a clear conscience,or has a sense of guilt. Peace of Mind, a Clear Conscience, and Love these are God's most important gifts, because they are for all time and Eternity. Granton U.C.W. news Unit 4 of the Granton U.C.W. decided to have a July meeting this year, which was held at the home of Mrs. Stanley Crawford Wednesday.
