Students say
stop littering
Dear Citizens,
On April 22 the Grade 2/3 class
from Walton Public School
collected garbage for an Earth Day
activity. We were surprised at what
we found along the road and on the
railroad trail.
This is a list of some of the items
that we discovered: beer bottles,
pop bottles, Christmas ornaments, a
Halloween decoration, a coat, T-
shirt, bracelet, pencils, pop cans,
glass, chocolate bar wrappers, bags,
jars, containers, rusty pipes,
headlight, a bike, paper, lids,

study
ladybugs
Since it was Earth Day the
kindergarten class took a look at
ladybugs. Derick Bachert,
Christopher Becker and Brandon
McGavin all brought in jars of
ladybugs.
Brandon had done some research
on his computer and shared that
information with the rest of the
class.
The children observed the bugs
and drew pictures in their journals.
Wendy Bachert and daughter
Haley, brought in cupcakes to help
celebrate Derick's birthday.
The Grade 1/2s are learning
about taking care of the planet.
They are studying the food chain.
They have learned that plants use
the soil for food. Then animals eat
plants and other animals.
They made a food chain with
pictures cut out of magazines. For
Earth Day they helped pick up
garbage around the school yard.
The Grade 3/4s in their study of
pulleys and gears, went to
McGavins where they were taken
on a tour by brothers Jeff and Brian
McGavin. Neil McGavin gave
tractor rides to the kids in 'Big
Blue'.
The class also picked up garbage
around the school for Earth Day.
Cassie Bressette took home the
well travelled bunnies, Coke and
Pepsi.

$80,094 and an accumulated net

barbed wire, Pringles containers,
car parts, a shoe and some stuff that
Mrs. Vivian wouldn't let us pick up
because we didn't have gloves on.
We feel sorry for the animals
who sometimes die because of all
this garbage. We wish people
would stop littering and respect our
earth.
The Grade 2/3 class, WPS.
Bill and Marie Coutts were
greeters at Duff's United Church,
April 26.
Rev. James announced that next
Sunday is pulpit exchange and the
congregation will get the chance to
hear Rev. Dave Jagger from
Fordwich.
The next UCW meeting will be
on May 6 at 8 p.m. with Patricia
Young as guest speaker. She is a
Girl Guide leader and will be
showing slides from her tour called,
'Going places together around the
World '98.' She has been to places
such as Mexico, Singapore, India,
Switzerland and England. Everyone
is welcome to come.
Rev. Murray's sermon was
called, 'Reclaiming Evangelism'. In
the Bible readings he read about
Paul's conversion — the Damascus
Road experience. To Rev. Murray
Conversion means a decisive
turning, a transformation which is
constantly going on in our lives.
For Paul, Rev. Murray figured
there were at least three layers and
depths to his conversion. The first
being Paul's conversion to God.
The second is to the church and
,thirdly was when he turned to the
world, reaching out to everyone.
Anyone wishing a copy of Rev.
Murray's sermon can phone him at
887-6540.
