Revival Centre Rev Ray Brewster was in charge of the Sunday Morning Service at the Lucan Revival Centre. Mrs. Becky Brewster led the children in singing "Let the Sun Shine in" before they went down for children's church. Rev. Brewster talked about God taking away our stony hearts and giving us new hearts. Since Adam's sin every person is born with a stony heart. To receive a new heart is what Jesus called being born again. There is no back door into heaven, we must come by way of accepting Jesus Christ and knowing Him every day. Sunday evening Doug Butler led the singing. Clare Swartz sang "I Love the Thrill That I Feel When I Get Together With God's Won- derful People," and "Heaven's Sounding Sweeter All the Time." Larry McGill accompanied Mrs. Kathy Pritchard while she sang "Make me an Instrument." Clare Swartz again ministered singing "Heaven For Me." Rev. Ray Brewster spoke from Psalm 8 and John 14: 1- 6 saying heaven is not just a place of sitting around, or all praise, but is a place of activity. Heaven, according to Scriptures, is God's Heaven has been called the hope of glory for the Christian. Our minds cannot grasp the glory of heaven, the place of service, of joy, of stability, of fellowship with Jesus Christ that heaven is, Also involved in the ac- cident which occurred on Highway 4, just north of Birr at 6 p.m. Saturday was a vehicle driven by John Beer, Hensall.

The Greens defeated Hagen's Hackers 4- 1 to move in front by one point while Salon 174 gained ground on the leaders as they beat the Blues 7.2. The Greens scored the first goal late in the first period to end a defensive battle. Gary Miller's breakaway goal with only three seconds remaining put the Greens ahead 1-0. Martin Wraith increased the lead to 2-0 as he scored on one of his patented drives from inside the blue line. Arden Shantz replied for the Hackers as he lit the lamp by knocking in a rebound past green's goalie John Garrison. Garrison made three big saves keep the Greens in the running later in the second while the offense figured out a way to increase their lead. Rick "Big Guy" Gwalchmai responded as he drilled a Peter Marten's drop pass past Chuck Fredin. Martens came back with a goal of his own as he finally put the puck past Fredin after Gwalchmai and Russ Radcliffe had numerous chances. Garrison played a strong game in the nets for the Greens as he turned aside 26 shots. Salon 174 regained a hold The members of the Sunday School, with their teachers and officers led the service of worship on White Gifts Sunday, presenting "Looking for Jesus", with Barbara Coughlin as director and narrator. Each class from the 4 year olds, right up to the Adult Bible class had a share in this presentation. It was the four year olds who "stole the show" as they were in costume and acted out the Christmas story as it was read by Mrs. Coughlin. With Helen Brown at the piano, the Adult Bible class acted as the choir, singing "Come Thou Long Expected Jesus" and leading in the congregational singing of five carols. The total Sunday School membership sang "Go, Tell it on the Moun- tain." The White Gifts were presented as the offering was received, the latter including many special gift envelopes for the World Development and Service fund. The gifts, together with the articles on the "mitten tree', will be taken to our Native Friends at Muncey next week. This play was written by a friend of Mrs. Coughlin, the Rev. Johanne Hills, of Conquest, Sask., near Saskatoon. Mr. Brown in- troduced and explained the play. The Superintendent, Jim Robertson, looked after the staging and the P.A. system, and the High School class, with their teacher Barbara Bannerman, were respon- sible for assembling and decorating the Chrismon Tree and the window sills. A record attendance was reached of 103, Sunday on third place as they decisively defeated the Blues 7 - 2. First period goals by Dave Cain, who pushed the puck past Phil Vousden, and Scott Anderson gave Salon 174 a 2 - 0 lead, Don Murray increased the lead to 3 - 0 as he scored on a penalty shot after George Ewer covered the puck with his hand in the crease. Steve Carter's power play goal gave the Blues their first goal but Brian Dick replied for Salon 174 to give them a three goal lead heading into the third. George Ewer scored on brother Keith to lessen the margin to 4 - 2 but Salon 174 came back with three goals to seal the victory. Bill Haskett got his first goal of the season, Don Coughlin and Murray with his second completed the scoring. After nine weeks of play the Greens lead with 11 points followed by the Hackers with 10, Salon 174 has 8 and the Blues 7. Only four points separate the top from the bottom which should result in some in- teresting games to come. Gord Moon of the Greens and Mike Wraith of the Blues share the scoring lead with points. Chuck Fredin of the Hackers leads the goalies with a 3.33 goals against average followed by Garrison, Ewer and Vousden at 4.00, 4.71 and 4.77, respectively.
