Congregation pot luck lunch precedes meeting
The congregation of Lucknow United
Church held a pot luck lunch following the
worship service on Sunday, January 27.
This lunch was then followed by the annual
congregational meeting.
George Anderson was elected chairman
and Rod McDonagh was elected secretary
for the meeting. Following the reading of
the minutes of the 1984 annual meeting,
the reports of all the groups and organiza-
tions within the church were reviewed and
received for information. The reports show
a very successful year for all of the groups.
The proposed budget for 1985 was then
approved. The 1985 budget for the church,
exclusive of all the mid week groups, will
be $55,129. When the budgets of all the
groups are included, the above budget
figure becomes almost $80,000. This
includes an objective of $12,100 for the
Mission and Service Fund of the National
Church for 1985.
Evans Helm reported for the nominating
committee. Those elected to various
positions include: Jim Pentland and Stuart
Reavie to the Board of Stewards; Gerry
Priestap, Bruce MacKenzie, Ernest Ack-
ert, Greg Blake, and "Bob Struthers to the
Session; Bob Finlay to the manse commit-
tee; Stuart Collyer to the Memorial and
Gift Committee; George Anderson to the
Board of Trustees; Anna Mae Hunter as
the Presbytery delegate; and Lloyd Morri-

the historical committee, which was
formed in 1984 to prepare a church history
to mark the occasion of the 100th anniver-
sary of the present church building in 1985.
Mrs. Walden reported that much of the
research has been done, and it was the
recommendation of the committee that the
history be printed by a professional printer
in book form. The congregation supported
this recommendation.

presently conducting Confirmation classes
for nine young people and five adults.
These 14 people will be confirmed on Palm

When they were alone, Lucy faced her
husband.
"Go and get Mr. Grant. We shall have a to
determine the extent of .the damage and
see if it can be repaired:
Teddy was secretly annoyed at his wife's
sudden invasion into what he believed was
strictly a man's territory.
"Did ye think lhad no already thought
about that? Sometimes Lucy, ye treat me
as if I were a little boy!"
She smiled very sweetly and patted his
arm reassuringly. •
"I think nothing of the kind, my dear.
You are most certainly not a child andI
love you just the way you are. Sometimes
however, I think you have still a little
growing up to do!"
It was not until the afternoon that

Charlie • Grant made his appearance. He.
surveyed the dama8e and then went to the
Murdoch cabin to make his report.
"It will be a big job," he told Lucy. "But
1 think I can fix it in about a couple of
days. "
"Why did the saw suddenly break like
that, Mr. Grant?"
"It was the saw table, ma'am," the
blacksmith told her. "1t was set to cut soft
wood, and the idiot who' started the
machinery, didna know what he was doing.
Instead of setting a slower feed he left it
the way it was the day before. There is no
saw made which could rip into hard wood
the way it was. set."
Lucy wished her husband could have
heard 'the blacksmith's words!
