Your baby's teeth need
attention right from the start
Plan a visit to the dental office by their first

to begin prevention and learn proper
techniques than at the beginning.

Child baptized at United service
Faith Addison Lockie took her
first step in her journey of faith at
Londesborough United Church on
Sunday, Nov. 14. She was initiated
into the body of Christ through the
sacrament of baptism in the
presence of regular churchgoers and
a large number of family and
friends.
Her parents, Stewart and Denise
(Hulley), were presented with a
candle to represent the light of
Christ. Assisting Rev. Pat Cook with
the baptism were Marjorie Duizer
Hullett Happenings
Sixty years have passed since D-
Day, termed the turning point for the
Allies in the Second World War, and
86 years since the signing of the
armistice to end the First World War.
Today's youth and the greatest
majority of the rest of us have no
real concept of the horrors of war,
the emotional toll it had on families
or the difficulty the veterans faced
both emotionally or physically upon
their return home.
Each year the pupils of Hullett
Central Public School share their
observance of Remembrance Day
with the community. In the days
leading up to that service, each
classroom has discussions about the
need to remember and decide how
they will be a part of the service. It
becomes the task of the teachers to
continue to make youth appreciate
the sacrifices of those who served.
Hopefully the memory of being a
part of the annual service of
remembrance will bring each an
understanding of the significance of
Remembrance Day in their adult
years.
This year's service was held at the
Londesborough United Church and
led by members of the student
council. Young voices of the
primary choir sang See the Poppies
and everyone in attendance joined to
end the service with the singing of
Let There Be Peace on Earth.
Every classroom had a wreath
they had co-operatively made. The
classes offered songs, poems,
stories, statements of remembrance
and posters they had created. In each
case they gave thanks for the
sacrifices that gave them today's
freedom or spoke of their pride in
being Canadian.
Principal Lois Tebbutt reminded
the children that learning to find and
and Laura Scott. Faith's aunt Debbie
Hulley, read the scripture lessons for
the service — Genesis I: 1-10; Titus
3: 4 and 5; and John 3: 5.
The senior choir sang the anthem,
All on the Altar of God.
The parable of the persistent
widow found in Luke 18: 1-8 was
the text for Rev. Cook's message.
The widow was the symbol of the
poor and despairing. Jesus spoke of
how her persistence in pleading to a
judge eventually brought her justice
and peace.
practise peaceful solutions to their
everyday classroom or playground
problems is a way for them to
remember. The world must never
forget, she said, and continually
campaign for peace.
Paul Elgie of Goderich was the
guest speaker. He asked the children
to honour the fallen soldiers who
gave them their freedom. Mr. Elgie's
father was a dentist in both world
wars and his brothers were part of
the Allied Forces during the Second
World War. Also, his brother,
Steven, a pilot, was shot down and
killed over Germany. His family
certainly knows firsthand of the
reality of .war.
He spoke of being pleased to be
present for the service to honour his
family members and show his
gratitude for the sacrifices of many
who helped make Canada the
greatest democracy in the world. He
told the children about the Books of
Remembrance on view to everyone
in the Peace Tower in Ottawa.
Like many others Mr. Elgie finds
himself moved on Remembrance
Day by the sound of the bugle, the
sight of the stone cenotaph, the
acknowledgement given to the ranks
of soldiers and veterans who march
and remember their fallen comrades.
Peace and justice today, he said, are
the result of their bravery.
Rev. Pat Cook asked, "How are
we as individuals in the persistence
of our faith? Do we only trust in the
help of God when the road is easy?"
God will answer prayer as He sees
the answer is right for each.
Christians must look for and be open
to the answers God sends to prayer.
One must remain trustful of the
teachings of God's love and help. As
God is persistent in His love and
grace we must be persistent in our
faith and prayers.
The youth group will meet at
Vanastra Recreation Centre on
Friday, Nov. 19 at 7 p.m. For more
