CHSS committee chairperson
suggests education proposals
Continued from page 4
In addition, the Madawaska
approach respected the wishes and
wisdom of the community's
taxpayers. The cost of the facilities
required to provide the services
described would be but a fraction
of the costs outlined to either divide
CHSS or to build a new Catholic
high school in Huron County,
dealing more likely in thousands of
dollars as opposed to millions of
dollars. This is 1994, not 1974, and
it is Huron County, not suburban
Toronto.
In conclusion, please consider the
preceding proposal for the merits
that it holds and for the tax dollars
that it would free-up, leaving funds
available for health care or other
much needed services in Huron
communities. It would be sad to
lose an opportunity to truly
harmonize and strengthen our
community and to miss the chance
to demonstrate to others that Huron
is an innovative leader
education.

CHSS Parents' Liaison Committee.

The community also welcomes
home Bill and Marjory Humphries
who have been to Halifax, where
their son Paul recently moved.
They saw a lot of the sights and
really liked what they saw. They
did encounter a bad snow storm on
their way there.
Baseball is in full swing now and
the Walton park has men and
women slow pitch games every
night next week at 9. Come on out
and cheer for your favourite team.
Jim Reed, a former reporter for
the T.V. show W5 will be guest
Rev. Banks told of the death of
two Bluevale members who will be
sadly missed, Vera Nicholson and
Isobelle Wheeler.
Rev. Banks called all the children
forward to sit in the front pews so
they could help welcome into the
church through holy baptism, Luke
and Curtis McClure, twin sons of
Carl and Tara. Viola Kirkby
assisted Rev. Banks and introduced
each newly baptized child to the
congregation. The babies enjoyed
meeting everyone and Curtis didn't
want to leave Viola's arms so soon.
Kenny McCallum, cousin to the
twins poured the water into the
font.
The congregation sang Out of
Deep Unordered Water.
Rev. Banks's sermon was called,
speaker at Duffs United, June 12.
The Bankses had the pleasure of
having him come to their house last
week to discuss the topic of his
address. He has been to Israel and 'Dry Bones Disunited Church'. It
Palestine and has witnessed the
battles that go on there and
interviewed the leaders. He has
much knowledge of the situation
and wants to share it. He has named
his message, 'The Unholy Land.'
It is a chance to learn and
become more aware, and to perhaps
get an answer to the question that
so many people ask, 'Why are the
Arabs and the Jews fighting?'
From the book Illustrations
Unlimited I read this little joke
called "A Child is listening". One
day a young mother and her
kindergarten-age son were driving
down the street. The inquisitive
little boy asked, "Mommy, why do
the idiots only come out when
Daddy drives.
was a story about Pastor Zeke Yeel
(Rev. Banks's fictional character)
from Dry Bones Disunited Church,
and his struggle with a dying
church. He asks himself the
question that God asked Ezekiel in
the valley of dry bones, "Can these
bones live?" He came across a
story in one of his sermon
preparation resources and learned
how an Anglican priest helped
bring about life to her dying
charge. After reading her story he
could say, "Yes, these bones can
live."
Then Pastor Yeel remembered
that this Sunday he was baptizing a
baby and he realized that the bones
at Dry Bones Disunited Church just
may live.
