THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, MAY 8, 1996 Walton Public School news Kindergarten class watches dairy farm video The Walton Kindergartens have been busy working on their plant journals. They have been recording the changes in the seeds they planted. Linda and Jennifer McDonald and friend Carrie Leonhardt were greeters at Duffs United Church on May 5. Today was pulpit exchange and Rev. Bill McAuslan of Wesley- Willis/Holmesville pastoral charge, conducted the service. Andrew McDonald lit the Christ Candle with Rev. Bill leading the Call to Worship. The gathering hymn, Morning Has Broken was sung. On the announcements it was noted that next Sunday the Sacrament of Holy Baptism will be observed. The new date for the Country Supper Smorgasbord is May 20. Also coming on June 2 is a chance to come and hear the 'Music Making Moms' from the Tara District. More information to follow at a later date. The young worshippers came forward during the singing of the last verse of Tell Me The Stories of Jesus. Rev. Bill refreshed their memories of the scripture read earlier about Peter, by talking about living stones. He asked the kids if they had ever seen stones get up and walk or had they ever seen a stone breathe? He showed them some small, special stones that he had brought with him. They were stones from the old church foundation. He pointed out how the little rocks were used to fill in the spots between the big rocks. The children, like the smaller rocks were just as important in the laying of the foundation of the church of God. They are, just as everyone, important and needed to be the foundation mat God builds His church on — we are all living stones. His sermon was called, 'United to Celebrate Our Differences.' Rev. Bill told how he had grown up in the United Church and loved it very much and was sad to hear how the mainline churches have been reported not having much of a future. He talked of different concerns in the farming communities and cities and how, at General Council, he was able to hear the various concerns from people all across Canada, showing the great breadth and depth of the Church. Jesus said he was the truth, the way, the life. "We all bring our different understandings of that," said Rev. Bill. "Paul said that the gift of the Send us your sporting news Remember to let us know how your soccer or baseball teams are doing this year. Win or lose the games are important to the players, the fans and to The Citizen. Lindsay Hoegy, who was kid of the day, brought in a homemade video of her and her dairy farm. Kyle Griffith brought in photo- Holy spirit was given to everyone for the upbuilding of the whole Church. Jesus scattered seed everywhere, even on rocky ground and yet when you look around you can see plants growing out of rocks. So remember that seed are on the wind of the Spirit and we know not where the wind blows. Let us have courage to follow the Spirit." UCW meets The UCW met May 1 with Dorothy Sholdice and Marie McGavin filling in for Pearl McCallum, members of the Stewardship and Finance commit- tee, leading the women in worship. Marie read poems about 'Mothers', and Dorothy read scripture. Marie also played the piano for the singing of the hymns.

The Brussels Tigers and Brussels Bulldogs are set to defend their respective Huron County fastball championships with home openers scheduled for this weekend. The Tigers, 1995 league champions, open Sunday night at 7:30 against the Walton Brewers while the Bulldogs, 1995 consola- tion champions, open Friday night graphs of himself and family and displayed posters of lego which he has a great interest in. Joel Dalton had a tough time deciding which he would bring in to share with his class. It was a toss up between his beagle, Bowser and his mother. The beagle was brought to class. After having had to cancel their planned trip to McGavin's about three times due to rain, the Grade ones finally got to go. They were all set to go at 1:30 but it started to rain again. A disappointed bunch of kids got into their school work and one child happened to see a streak of sunlight. All of a sudden they all burst into song, Oh Mister Sun, Sun, Mr. Golden Sun. They are at 7:30 against the Belgrave Blue Devils. The Tigers, Bulldogs, Walton and Belgrave will be joined in the HCFL by Seaforth, Lieury Red Sox, Lieury Jets, Zurich Rangers, and the Zurich Panthers. Home games for the Tigers and Bulldogs are Friday and Sunday nights at 7:30 p.m. now convinced that that song brought out the sun and they were able to go. They saw gears, levers, pulleys and axles that they had been searching for. The unit that they hale been working on teaches them to focus on technology all around us and to learn the difference between things that man has created and that of nature. The Grade 2s celebrated the end of their reading contracts. They had pizza and pop and chips and played bingo and other games. Just so you don't think that that is all they did they also began to learn fractions. The Grade 3s made some pop-out flowers to try to convince either spring or themselves that warm, flower weather is coming. They have started reading books about pigs. Well it was a great week for the Grade 4s as they welcomed back Mrs. Vandendool, who has been on sick leave for quite a while. Tina Smith reported that the kids worked on a 'Rain Forest Problem'. They wrote a story and illustrated the book using Eric Carle style of art. It is really worth seeing and everyone is welcome to come into the school and take a look. There are definitely some very talented kids in the school. The class is also making a newspaper with its own advice column. The school has also begun to get ready for track and field.
