DIES IN LISTOWEL Miss P. Johns Plans Beautiful Setting For Inspiring Service at United Church On -Sunday morning Rev. T. G. FIRST WAR VETERAN Nasser, minister of Wingham Un- ited Church, welcomed the many friends and visitors who had, once again, come-from far and near to share in the Sunday School anni- versary and flower Sunday. This is a joyous service of youth and beauty 'and reminds us that the. God of law and order is also the God of beauty and love. As people approached the church large baskets of -flowers extended a welcome and prepared them for the beautiful floral setting inside. Singing birds also lent their music to the scene, White and purple lilacs-with colored tulips provided the colour scheme. The theme for the clay was "Launch Out for Christ", and was built around the idea of expressing the great power of prayer in our lives, The program as well as all decorations pointed to the devel- Opment of this subject, To stiggest the sending out of a prayer, a launching base for a rocket, surrounded with a white fence, had been erected at the front of the church, The rocket had just been dispatched and was high in the air trailing its lights be- hind. This base represented our homes, those from which we come and from which we send our child- ren, as the launching base must be strong, true and accurate, so must our homes have a firm Christian foundation from which the children are sent out to face life.

In the morning Rev. H. Anderson, pastor of the church, conducted the ser- vice and introduced the special speaker, 'Mrs. (Rev.) Jackson, of Atwood, with a children's choir rendering special anthems and Miss Claire Chamney at the organ. In the evening Mrs. Jackson again led in an inspiring service. The choir rendered a special an- them, and Miss claire Chenities; sang, "How Great Thou Art." Splendid crowds attended bole morning and evening services. large brackets of white lilacs, were two directional aerials which guide the course of the missile. These depict the people who direct the course of our children, adults, S.S teachers and day school teachers Prayers must he expressed befort they can be answered, prayer with- out action is useless, We must .be willing to do our part with God': help and trust. Him for guidance. In order to keep our lives right, we must be constantly in touch with the source of power. This Idea was depicted by a large !floral globe of white lilacs on a purple base, containing a radar tracking device which can tell when a rocket leaves the ground, what route it follows and its position at any time. This globe is likened to our friends and relatives who fol- low our progress with interest anti stand ready to help if we get off the course. The pillars of the gallery were fashioned into hydro Doles, com- plete with floral ciossarms, lighted insulators arid connecting wires, which showed the ability to convey power from the source to any needed point. So, in our lives, God stands as a power plant, ready to send us power to carry on through sunshine and shower. Sus- pended throughout the church were rainbow-colored, diamond-shaped mobiles, which prevent the rocket from running into trouble, teaching us that with God's help, we can stay straight on our course. Holding the central place in the decoration scheme and in front of the pulpit was a large floral open Bible, fashioned of white lilacs and held on a purple standard, Here is the greatest guide of all. We can look to this Book for leader- ship, encouragement and consola- tion, nod there we will find the answer to any problem facing a little child or a grown adult. To complete the setting, as one looked up, above the choir loft. were the words of the text, "Launch Out for Christ", boldly outlined in large red letters on a. backgroun; of white lilacs. Tints, the whole scheme of decoration established the truth that calmest prayer sent out with a direction of faith and sincerity will reach God and will be answered in His good time. The' processional was led by the Junior Choir in their white gowns wearing pansy corsages, follower -by members of the Sunday School marrying bouquets of flowers. These were received and placed around the front of the church against a background of greenery -by six senior girls, Brenda MacLennan, Sandra Cameron, Patsy Shackleton, Kathleen Hodgins, Anne Jouwsma and Peggy Ahara. The invocation was given by Ruth Bennett and suitable passages of Scripture were recited by Brad Elliott, Mark Fisher, Billy Strong and Paul Templeman. T w o recitations, "How Nice to -Know", by Vichi Ro- senhagen • and "The Power of Prayer", by Pamela Burns were much_ enjoyed. Bobby Sha,unessy gave the prayer following the of- fering. The music was under the direc- tion of A, D. Bennett, organist and choirmaster, who led the choir In the anthem, "Youth of the World, Arise". Judy Callan and Bonnie Jardin sang the duet, "God Who Touched the Earth with Beauty". As an added musical attraction the -congregation was pleased to hear the Brass Quintette, young men from Hanover. They are a part of the Hanover Brass Band, and played the two selections, "What a Friend We Have in Jesus" and "Stand up for Jesus", Russel Zurbrigg, superintendent of the Sunday School, presided at the service and thanked all those who had spent long hours of time end skill in the preparation, par- ...innerly Miss Phyllis Johns, whose ingenuity and untiring effort laid the whole foundation, Tharke was also extended to the mechanics :rom radio station CKNX, who no- sisted in setting up the radar pro- jects, and who loaned verial equipment, microphones. etc., for the occasion. Also mentioned were the many people who sent flowers and other decorations. After tire pastoral prayer Mr. Musser introduced the very wet- come guest speaker, Lloyd Hutton, of Kincardine, a former superin- tendent of this Sunday School, Mr. Hutton followed the theme of - the clay and explained to the children the meaning of each floral emblem, He linked each one with our oner lives and emphasized that the pew- Pr of prayer guides us to the end. Mr. Hutton held the attention of .he children by using different ab- ieets to illustrate his talk. Of special interest was his showing of different 'frees, one of which he ised to make the connection whip ie ighted the colored buibe on the van bulbe.
