Sweeney baptized Sandra Dar- lene, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Garry Robinson of London and Kimberly Anne, daughter of Mr. and Mrs, Douglas Gibson in the United Church en Sanday. The junior choir sang The Lord's My Shepherd In two*. part harmony, the musical set- ting being written by Ridge arid Moller. The intermediate choir also rook part in the ser- vice.. The sermon text was ,.For Jesus said if thou wonldst enter into life, keep the command- ments." The rich. yeeng rule: asked Jesus what he ennst do to have eternal life. We may ask it, but let it go at that. If we obey what Jesus tells us to do it may cause us to throw awae the vain pursuits of life, Mr. Sweeney said. Obedience is better than sacrifice. The wicked man doesn't want to ::crsatte his ways but the structure o: the :en commandments forbids eeet deeds, evil words and evil thinking. It is Nsnrontt to steal, swear and use one's ahelities to lower standards. Loafers, drunkards, those casing necessary trouble coutd make better use of their rime. Mr. Sweeney said that God's grace is given to those who earnestly ask in the proper spirit. Huron County planning program study to continue GODERICH-- Following a lengthy discussion, Huron County Council decided tocon- tinue the study of the need of county planning "in order that the committee in charge might place before County Council early in 1968, such recommen- dations as are deemed advis- able."

New mission program in Venezuela Anglicans in Huron County during November are helping to establish a new missionary program in Venezuela, through Anglican World Mission. Bach parish will be asked to contri- bute money toward the support of the Rt.Rev. Guy Marshall who was consecrated recently as Bishop in Venezuela. Bishop Marshall is best known in Canada for the many years he has spent as a chap- lain to seamen along Toronto's waterfront. He did similar work for 14 years in. South Am- erica and speaks Spanish fluent- ly. Since 1962 the Rev. Wm. A. Collins, a Canadian priest and graduate of Huron College has been a chaplain to English speaking people in Venezuela. He has expanded his work to include native people, and it is expected that two other priests now in training will join the Anglican mission there. At the moment Bishop Mar- shall is a bishop without a diocese or a synod office. Op- erating out of Caracas, Bishop Marshall's will be almost com- pletely a pioneer episcopal ministry. He is Canada's con- tribution to South American work, supported by A.W. M. funds. The Anglican Congress of 1963 recommended that the Anglican Church increase its work in many parts of South America. Situated in the nor- 'them parr of the continent, Venezuela has over 7 million people, and a density of popu- lation more than twice that of Ontario. It is an important oil producing country, as well as being a source of several agri- cultural products such as coffee, cotton and sugar cane. In its large cities new sky- scrapers and freeways contrast sharply with tin-roofed shacks. Venezuela has been independ- ent since 1830, but like much of South America, has suffered from revolutions and dictator- ships. The new bishop will work under the Bishop of Trini- dad and within the Anglican province of the West Indies.

GODERICH-- "The wet wea- ther this summer and fall has made road construction diffi - cult," County Engineer J.W. Britneil told members of Huron County Council on Monday. He stated that the county had undertaken a rather large program this year and is trying desperately to complete the last item, that of grading on road 31 from Hillsgreen south to Highway 84. AU other pro- jects are completed, and the road 31 job 90 per cent com- plete, he said, but it may be necessary to delay the final trimming and shaping of the shoulders and ditches until 1968 on this project. "While road and bridge con- struction in wet weather is more costly, we feel that all projects will be completed within the original estimates," Mt. Brit- nell declared. • " - Road construction estimates total 5485, 000 and bridges and culverts, $165, 000, while ma- jor maintenance totals about $575, 000.
