WROXETER—The Christmas
music in the United Church was
led by the junior and inter-
mediate choirs on Sunday. The
junior anthem, "The Snow Lay
on the Ground" was sung in two-
part harmony. An intermedi-
ate trio sang, ''Peace and Good
Will".
Rev. Ronald Sweeney took
his text from II Corinthians,
"Thanks be to God for his un-
speakable gifts".
What God offers, man can-
not buy. The Christmas spirit
should reveal the spontaneous
giving of our Lord. The most
priceless gift of all was the
Christ Child. He came into a
world of hatred, high taxes and
Wealth on the one hand, and
poverty on the other.

Vesper service
and carolling
GORRIE--The Canadian Girls
in Training held their Christ-
mas vesper service in the Gor-
rie United Church on Sunday
evening, opening with an or-
gan prelude by Lynda Johnston
and Larke Carson at the piano.
Larke Carson was the leader
for the worship with Jean Brown,
Edith Mitchell, as readers for
the Act of Remembrance and
Linda Watson the candlelighter.
A trio comprised of Janice
Elschner, Joyce Hamilton and
Susan Templeman sang.
The girls went carrolling to
the homes of the shut-ins in the
village after which they were
entertained by Mrs. R. M.
Sweeney.
Rev. R. Sweeney speaks on
Unspeakable gifts of God
it. The accomplishments of
the world have all come about
from the works of Christ. We
say peace and good will, but
no tongue can express another's
heart. Man must render his
best in loving service and thanks
to God.
"Do not let Christmas go by
without thanking God for the
first Noel. Gather your family
around and tell them of the un-
speakable gift of the Christ
child," Mr. Sweeney said.
May all the joys of the
season be yours
in great abundance!
YYe hope your holidays
will be as full of warmth
and friendliness, as
merry and bright
as the glad young
