Talking about the story of the plight of the Children of Israel, who were whipped, and given impossible tasks by their masters, Rev. Morden said, "This record of Ancient history does have some relation to us today. We are hard pressed and driven to distraction at times, by our taskmasters, hurry, fear, frustration and discontent and more. Some of them are related to the conditions under which we live, and some are of our own making, said the minister. Hurry, what a mad rush life has become, deliverance from this task- master comes from God who never hastens, Fear, we are a fear ridden people,most of us are whipped by fear, fear torments, the power of love can exorcise fear, Perfect love casts out fear, the love of God. Frustration, 'as never before, we are slaves to time and system which can play havoc with our souls, it depends on our attitude to life.

The third play of the season at the Blyth Summer Festival premiered Tuesday night and drew repeated curtain calls from ' an en- thusiastic audience. McGillicuddy's Lost Weekend written by Blyth author Keith Roulston pokes some simple fun at life in a small town, It's based on the antics of Hamhocks police chief Ezekiel McGillicuddy as he is portrayed each month by Roulston in his magazine, the Village Squire. The play covers a com- plete weekend when McGillicuddy the police chief tries in vain to get away for a well earned holiday. In the chief's role, Layne Coleman was only 30 minutes away from his holiday when the play opened. He is relaxed in dreaming about his up- coming fishingstrip but he isn't upset when councillor Hemple catches him reading An evening of good fun should be had by all as the Exeter Rec League all-stars tackle the California Cuties this coming Tuesday evening. The Cuties, a team of ten men who play in some of finest ladies' finery available, will take on the first all star aggregation ever from the four year old rec league. While the stars roster was not complete as of press time Lucan Revival Centre news In absence of Rev. Ray Brewster, Rick Brewster was in charge of both ser- vices at the Lucan Revival Centre. Rev, Roger Mason led in the hymn sing. Miss Lorna Minogue played the piano, with James Henry playing base guitar. Larry and Julie McGill with Doug Butler sang a trio, with Larry McGill on piano, singing "Oh Jesus You are my Light and Salvation" and "I See Why the Tide Keeps Rolling." Mr. Brewster took the book of Jude for his message. How to live a "Christian life above the sins of the world." Discipling oneself, one must daily accept responsibility for what one does, making a daily choice to serve God. Christians must earnestly contend for the faith. In the evening service Rev. Roger Mason led the song service. Miss Lorna Minogue played the piano in the absence of Mrs. Lorraine Armitage. Miss Joan Lockyer sang "All I Can Do Is Love You," accompanying herself on the piano. Again Rick Brewster took his message from Jude. God will not tolerate ungodly sinful living. As satan has counterfeits for all spiritual blessings God gives man, these evil ways turn people away from There is a challenge to live a Strong Christian life so as to experience victory in living for God. a Playboy magazine. The chief is lectured on his inability to set the pace for high morality in the town and is warned by the councillor that she is going to challenge long-time Mayor Lumpy on a morality campaign with the chief's actions to be revelled. McGillicuddy who in the past had issuing tickets as one of his toughest jobs decides to give up his vacation when he finds he has an honest-to-goodness kidnapping on his hands when Mrs. Moneybank's son Junior disappears. Some of the chiefs' lines were shouted which would suggest he was not quite sure of himself. He came on stronger in several con- frontations with Mrs. Moneybanks.' Anne Anglin's portrayal of Mrs. Moneybanks was strong and convincing in showing her as a familiar character in most small towns. With her expressions a few names have been released. Representing the Crescent Rolls will be Joe "Figures" Darling, and Bill "Quick- draw" Brock. Wearing the orange and white of the Carpet-Baggers will be Jim "Slippery" Fowe and Ken "Buswhiz" Pinder. The responsibility of representing McKnights has been thrust upon Don "Homer" Heywood and Pete "Busy signal" McFalls. One of the representatives for Idurondale will be Dan "Green Machine" Heywood. Coaching the team will be John Miners and Ron Bogart. The game which is being organized by the Crescent Rolls of the men's loop has a starting time of 8 p.m. at the park. Proceeds from the game will be used towards the acquisitior of a new diamond for the community park. Tickets which are $2 per person or $5 per family can be purchased at RSD Sports Den, The Junction, MacLean Automotive, members of the rec league or at the door. Aside from the antics, the Cuties play an excellent brand of fastball. It will be a good test and good fun for the all-stars. Staffa By MRS. J.

Simple fun in Blyth play A policeman's weekend and actions actions she becomes almost likeable despite obsessions for a spoiled son. Cindy Lou, the girl next door who has romantic in- tentions for the chief is played well by Mary Anne Cole. The other two players are Peter Elliott as mayor Lumpy and Angie Gei as councellor Sally Hemple. The latter's main concern was to clean up the town of Hamhocks. While the plot was simple, it provided plenty of laughs and treated the audience to entertaining comedy on human nature.
