Children present
Christmas concert
By Ruth Buchmeler
Sunday was the annual Sunday School
Christmas concert at South Kinloss Presby-
terian Church. At one o'clock a pot luck
dinner was enjoyed. Sharon MacDougall,
the Sunday School superintendent, in her
very capable manner, chaired the concert.
All the children participated with recitations,
plays and choirs. Then Santa came to give
the children their gifts and a bag of candy. It
was a very good afternoon.
The community extends its sympathy to
the family of the late Alex MacKenzie of
Wingham, who died in his 99th year. Mr.
MacKenzie was a native of Kinloss.
Mr. and Mrs. Ken Morrison and Kyle of
Sudbury are holidaying here with Betty's
family, Currie Colwell.
Dr. and Mrs. Bill Buckton, George and
David spent the weekend with Mr. and Mrs.
Herb Buckton and Mr. and Mrs. John
Mowbray and Duncan. They held their
Christmas dinner on Saturday at the home of
Herb and Mary.
At this time I wish every one a Merry
Christmas. May it be a safe holiday as we
travel to be with our families.

Ode to Joy.
On Sunday evening the C.G.I.T. girls held
a Christmas Vesper Service in the church,
assisted by leaders. Lila Stewart and Penny
Hodges. It was an impressive service with
the girls taking speaking parts and singing
two anthems.
On Saturday, December 24, Christmas
Eve, there will be an 8.00 p.m. candlelight
service of lessons, music and men's choir in
the Nile Church for both Dungannon and

Dungannon U.C.W.
The December meeting of the U.C.W. was
held in the church basement on December
12. Nora Saunders opened the meeting with
a reading entitled, Christmas Spirit. Follow-
ing the singing of grace, the members and
their guests, the Willing Workers, enjoyed
coffee and a smorgasbord of desserts.
Donna Alton introduced Donna Sue
McClenaghan of Lucknow who demonstrat-
ed Floral and Christmas arrangements and
the making of corsages and bows. Her
exhibition proved to be very informative and
colourful, showing how inexpensive things
many already have, can be made useful.
Karen Roberts thanked Donna Sue for her
presentation.
Donna Alton read, Murphy's Law, and
Recipe for a Merry Christmas.
To our many friends we send a
big bouquet of best wishes and our
hopes that you enjoy a holiday
blooming with buds of
happiness.
