The golden rule
Students of Hullett Central's Grade 2 class received message in an entertaining way, when
Const. Darren Milley, an OPP youth intervention officer for the Western Region visited the
school to present Oppie's anti-bullying children's public theatre initiative last week. Begun in
the Eastern Region, the program has reached 2,000 in this region since begun May 1.
Response, said Miltey, has been "outstanding".

Rev. Ross discusses Gideon Bible Society
FROM LONDESBORO
Jack and Helen Lee were the
greeters at Londesboro United
Church on Sunday, June 10. Doug
By Brett Bean, Grade 8 student
On Friday, June 8 Hullett Central's
Grade 8 students had their grad trip.
We left at 6 a.m. and stopped at
McDonald's on the 401.
When we reached Toronto we
visited the Science Centre. There
were many activities and things to do
there. For lunch we had a picnic on
the grass near the Science Centre.
Our next stop was at Ontario
Place. Everyone's favorite ride was
the bumper boats, which we all got
soaked on. There were many
different rides to try. We stayed there
for about five hours, then headed for
the baseball game.
We arrived early enough at
SkyDome to watch the warmups,
and catch a few baseballs. The game
was really exciting and had to be
decided in extra innings. The Blue
Jays defeated the Florida Marlins 7-
6 in 10 innings of play.
We arrived home at 1 a.m.
We would like give a special
thanks to Miss Uhler and Mr:
Bosman who 'volunteered to go with
us.
and Cheryl Trewartha were the
ushers.
The service centered around the
work of the Gideon Bible Society.
Rev. Paul Ross spoke of the Bibles
he has received over the years which
are important to him. The King
James version he received at church
as a child, th2 one he received at
ordination in 1974 and the Gideon
New Testament with Psalms and
Proverbs in the reddish cover he
received as a Grade 5 pupil, were
some he noted.
During Old Testament times of
danger, scrolls of books of the Bible
were hidden for safekeeping. Second
Kings 22: 8-13 is the story of
Hilkiah finding the lost Book of the
Law during the temple restoration.
In Luke 4: 16-22 Jesus fulfills the
prophecy of Isaiah when He reads
the scripture in the synagogue.
Hank Huigenbos, a farmer from
the Bluevale area, gave a brief
history of the Gideon Bible Society
and an explanation of its work. In
1898 a salesman knelt to do evening
devotions in his hotel room and
mused that he could do this only
because he had brought his own
Bible. The Gideon Bible Society
took shape when he and two
friends began placing Bibles in hotel
rooms.
The Society is a fellowship of non-
denominational Christians from all
walks of life who preach the love of
God and the power of His word. The
members strive to distribute Bibles
to all countries of the world to thoise
people who have never read His
word. The testimonials they receive
from people whose lives have been
changed after being given a Gideon
Bible encourage them.
Also they continue to give Bibles
to pupils in Grade 5 across Canada.
Gideons need the support of new
members, prayers and financial
donations.
Gideon John Beardsley, the farm
market analyst from CKNX shared
the story of Gideon arid God's army
with the children. God told Gideon
to give each of his soldiers a horn
and a torch. They surrounded their
enemies in the night and frightened
them so badly they tied.
