SUMMERS The service at Granton United Church was with- drawn on Sunday so that the congregation, could join the Wesley Charge in celebrating their ugh an- niversary. Guest minister was the Rev, Chauneey MacKay from the 'Merton Barr charge, whoentitled his sermon. "The who . — The Body of Christ" It is a wonderful thing to be ,free, to be free to be our- - selves, said the minister. The Church is not a building or an edifice, it is comprised of the people who are called out to Christ's way of life. ° There are three things I want to impress you with today. (1) We must worship God by discipling ourselves to prepare our minds and our attitudes to come to church. (2) We must try not to be at odds with our fellowmen, but be redeeming and welcoming in our fellowship, and finally (3) To be loving in our ser- vice, gracious in manner and kind, the service of Jesus was selfless, done in love and unconciously in a beautiful way. Special music was provided by the Bryanston - Bethel Folk Choir. This youth group accompanied by theirleaders Mr. V. Buwalda and Mr. G. McRoberts with guitars were well received. The church was nicely decorated with a harvest theme, At the conclusion of the service a time Of fellowship and re-acquaintance was enjoyed and a lunch served by the Wesley U.C.W. Rev. Elwood Morden exchanged • pulpits with Rev. MacKay. At St. Thomas Anglican Church the. Rev, Gregg Smith conducted the service and was the Celebrant of Holy Communion, assisted by Miss. Marion Herbert. Taking his sermon from the 5th chapter 9f Ephesians Rev, Smith preached on "Living in the Light," Your life , must be con- trolled by love,, just as Christ loved us, and gave up. His life for us, Pay close attention to he* you live, don't live like ignorant men, but like wise men, We have the,light, so let it shine for the world to see. At the Granton . Com- munity Bible Church Dave Hendry of Woodham was the speaker.

The meeting opened with the 4-H Pledge followed by the roll call which was, describe a piece • Do your homework before you do any work on your home. 421 MAIN ST., EXETER 235-2720 154 QUEEN ST ST MAQYS 284.'2728 Before you start on any home repairs or renovations, you should do some careful thinking. Decide exactly what you want done. Draw up an overall plan. And do a little digging around to find out all you can about potential contractors for your job. A few precautions will eliminate some common problems: "Don't be talked into having work done just because the rest of the neighbourhood is doing it or because the price is presented as bargain basement,. "If the project is a major one, seek professional advice (i.e. architects or engineers) before the work is started. "Ask for estimates from at least three reliable firms. "When you decide to sign a contract, find out first who does the actual work. " Insist that all details be written into the estimate - the type and amount of work to be done, total cost, date of completion and any extras, "If a large amount of money is involved, have a lawyer go over the contract before you sign it. Don't give more than 10 percent as a down payment. "Never sign a completion certificate until the work has been done to your satisfaction. "Hold back 15 percent of the final payment for 37 days after the work is completed. That way, if the contractor or subcontractor does not pay for materials, you are protected from liability under The Mechanics Lien Act. Unfortunately, despite the most carefully laid plans, you may find yourself the victim of unethical business practices. Your Provincial Government wants you to know what your rights are under the Consumer Protection and Business Practices Acts. if The Consumer Protection Act allows you to cancel any contract signed in your home (where deliv- ery, payment and performance of work remain to be completed) by sending a registered letter to the company within 48 hours - or two full working days - of signing. 3 The Business Practices Act allows you to have the transaction cancelled by sending a registered letter to the company if you have been misled by false or deceptive consumer representations.
