They also learned a dance called the `Bunny Hop.' Jimmy Raithby was the lucky child who got to take Bob the Hamster home for the Easter weekend.

Randy Banks began the Call to Worship. However the 'preacher' was interrupted by a NEW FRUIT AND VEGETABLE STORE OPENS - Michael Phillips will become the third generation of the Phillips family to own a fruit store in Seaforth. He is the grandson of Tom and Mary Phillips. The store opened this week. Store connected to past Some of the older residents of Seaforth might be forgiven a little sense of deja vu when they walked down Main Street last week. There was a fruit, vegetables and groceries store operated by a mem- ber of the Phillips family. The new store, T. Phillips & Grandson, is next door to the building where the Phillips family operated a similar business starting in the early 1900's. In fact, the owner of the new business says some people thought it was a prank when the 'Philips Fruit' sign went up last week. "A lot of people thought it was a joke people were playing," said Michael Philips. The new store owner is grandson of Tom and Mary Philips, who operated the Philips Fruit Co. for many years. Michael's uncle, Tony Philips, also ran the store. ' Michael was born and raised in Seaforth and left town in the mid - 1960's. He went on to work as an independent business person and in the grocery business with IGA and A&P. Although he left town years ago Michael has returned to Seaforth several times over the years and is now living hero again. fie says there is room for a fruit business in the downtown commercial. mix. "There is room...there used to be all kinds of stores in town," he remembers. After opening the store, and rely- ing just on word-of-mouth, he says he was pleased with his first day of business in his old home town. The original store was located at the site now occupied by Dr. LaPlante, the optometrist. Michael's store is at the location of the former Flannery Cleaners and more recent- ly, the Sunrise Dairy. gang of children led by a very vocal woman. She demanded to know how he would call this Easter Service when the cross was still draped in black and the stone had not even been rolled away from the tomb! Rev. Banks, not accustomed to being interrupted like that, was rather dumbfounded as the woman called upon her gang to set the stage properly. Geoffrey Banks rolled the stone away from the tomb and Ricky Pethick placed an Easter Lily beside the tomb. Kevin Wilbee took the black cloth from the Cross and Melissa Badley, Jennifer McClure and Sarah McDonald placed Easter Lilies in the front of the church. Then the service got underway with Gloria Wilbee and her son Kevin, who read the Easter Lenten Liturgy and Kevin lit the Christ Candle. 'Once Upon a Tree' was the ve,fy moving Easter hymn that the ',Moir sang. Rev. flanks announcedthar'April 30 a pulpit exchange will take place. Rev. Banks' sermon was .called, 'Easter Openings.' At Easter God flung open the gates to Eternal Life, said Rev. Banks. We read in the Bible about the opening of a new day and a new week as Mary Magdalene opened the door of her home and went to the tomb where Jesus' body had been placed. She found, to her amazement, an open and empty sepulchre which is, by far, the most significant of all Easter openings. Mary had opened her heart and mind to the possibility that. God could raise Jesus from death, he told the congregation. She also opened herself to the risk of being ridiculed by telling the other dis- ciples what she had seen. As individuals, we will have to choose whether or not we will be open to the good news of the risen Christ. Communion was served by Margaret Craig, John Uyl, Heidi and Fred During the offering the" ' it sang, `Look to thd'Rose.'

THE PURSUI T SQUADRON When you farm 4,000 acres, flexibility is a pretty important consideration. That's just one of the reasons Joel Robson, who farms in partnership with his brothers, Jay and Jamie, uses PURSUIT. "We use a lot of different tillage methods — some no -till, a bit of minimum till and conventional tillage,' says Ioel. "So we use PURSUIT just about every way you can: early preplant, preplant incorporated, pre emerge and even a little bit of post emerge. It depends on the situation:' "But no matter when we apply PURSUIT. it gives us the • results we need;" Ioel adds. "and it gives us results consistently. That's a major issue for us." "WITH OUR LARGE Rsturs REXIBILIfYSA BIG PUJSOE' "We switched to a PURSUIT program to get a little better control of ragweed and lamb's quarters." Joel says, "and it's done the job for us. A PURSUIT tank -mix is as good as anything out there." Top soybean growers like Ioel Robson rely on PURSUIT for its wide window of application. And for the peace of mind that comes from knowing PURSUIT will control their grass and broadleaf weeds — including velvetleaf, nightshade and triazine-resistants — under any kind of growing conditions. Performance. Consistency. Flexibility. That's what control's all about.
