Ray Brewster spoke from Heb. 13: 10-16 that our praise is our offering unto ,the Lord. with obedience being better than sacrifice.

He said that this is a perfectly reasonable approach to giving, but there are others who take a step beyond that; a step promp- ted by a fuller belief and faith in Christ. The Archdeacon also brought thanks from the diocesan office and the Bishop personally to the congregation for their fine effort in meeting the sub- sistence budget. This meant that the Diocese of Huron could enjoy the finest year they have every had .

People at Lucan Revival Centre Cor. Main & Richmond St. Lucan March 1 7 p. m. Everyone Welcome When you're a florist, good form starts from the ground up. Ask Lynn. She fills out the UI Record of Employment perfectly every time an employee parts company. When you're in good company, stay in good form. Lynn is in charge of personnel and finance for a local florist. And she knows that one of her responsibilities is to fill out a UI Record of Employment form every time an employee has an interruption in earnings. She knows that if she doesn't get it right thc first time, she may have to do it again. So Lynn took the time to get the booklet "How to Complete the Record of Employment" from her nearby Canada Employment Centre. Leaving in good form. The Record of Employment is one way we can make sure no one gets short-changed and no one gets overpaid. This saves time and money for everyone involved. Lynn found out that thc most common mistake is in reporting the "Insurable Earnings". insurable earnings arc not necessarily the same as payroll earnings. Because I.ynn fills out the ROE accurately, ex-employees don't have to come back to her for changes. And neither do we. It's just good business to he in good form. At Unemployment Insurance, we process about 4,000,000 Records of Employment every year. Last year, employer mistakes in filling out the form cost at least $125,000,000 in overpayments. Plus the cost of recovering those overpayments and penalizing or pmsecuting. We're out to cut down that $125,000,000. And we're going to do it, together.
