Sparking a blaze
The Blyth and District Fire Department was called to the lot north of the Blyth-Hullett landfill
site Friday afternoon when a spark from the dump ignited a nearby field. Blyth Deputy Fire
Chief Bill Burkholder said the fighters were on the scene for approximately half an hour
putting out the stubble fire and extinguishing areas in a neighbouring woodlot.

Silver Tops
to invite
friends
AuburnThe news
Compiled by Kay Lapp
from
Phone 526-7264
The Silver Tops met on
Wednesday, Nov. 17 at noon with
good attendance for a potluck
dinner. John and Margaret
Hildebrand were in charge. Grace
was sung with Ell Lapp leading,
then a sumptuous meal was
enjoyed.
Everyone was sorry that Bernice
Anderson and Ernie Durnin were
unable to attend.
After dishes the business meeting
began. Secretaries’ and treasurer’s
reports were given. It was decided
that $50 be given to the Alzheimer
Society. It was also decided that
$25 be given to Mrs. Cook for her
excellent work for the club.
Members are to bring a friend to
the Christmas dinner. The number
must be given to Maxine Seers, a
week prior to the meal. Tina
Empey, Ethel Ball and Kay Lapp
will help decorate the tables.
Margaret Hildebrand showed a
video on phone fraud. If in doubt,
hang up.
Marg Hildebrand showed
favours, decorated balls, made by
her granddaughter in Beijing.
Needed to make them are paper
strips, capable hands, and the
patience of Job.
She also gave everyone a
program list for Seniors for the year
2000.
Margaret continued with her
granddaughter’s letters in thi na.
Unfortunately it poured rain on
field day in Beijing. This was at the
square but things continued. They
went to the island in the park and
found friendly people, lovely
landscapes and enjoyed folk
singing. At the amusement park
there were tigers, pandas and
ducks. They spoke about martial
arts and cloissonne which is
beautiful and inexpensive.
Ethel Ball planned on showing
Holy City pictures but equipment
trouble took over. It will be shown
at another meeting.
Remember to bring a table favour
for the Christmas dinner.
Rev. tells children
of kings, queens
Musical prelude by Bernice
Gross, organist, welcomed all to
the Knox United Service on Nov.
21 at 9:45 a.m. Rev. Paul Ross lit
the Christ candle.
Church announcements were
given. Remember to bring a white
gift of non-perishable food to Dec.
5 service. These are forwarded on
to Huron County Christmas
Bureau.
The children came to the front
and out of the mystery bag drew a
crown and a robe. Two children
became royalty. Rev. Ross said
people expect kings and queens to
follow God’s word and hold
countries together.
Rev. Ross gave the day’s
scripture from Ezekiel 34. In this
the world of God said that as a
shepherd he would help those lost
or deliver them.
Rev. Ross continued with New
Testament from Ephesians I. Paul
told people that he knew they had
faith and God would help them to
understand Christ is the head of the
church.
Rev. Ross continued with
Matthew 25 where Jesus told the
crowds that those who fed and
cared for those in need were doing
the same for him.
The sermon was The Shepherd
King. This world is filled with
those who need help, Rev. Ross
said, people of all nationalities,
young and old refugees and
prisoners. People have to be fed
and cared for whether rich or poor,
well or ill. Christ said God’s people
must teach his word and also give
help to everyone in need. “He gave
his life that we might live,” said
Rev. Ross, then closed with prayer.
Greeting everyone for the church
service were Elliott and Kay Lapp.
