Plans for event underway Fair women By Maxine Sereda The ladies division of the Exeter Agricultural Society met at the . home of Mrs. Wayne (Shirley) ,Prance January 11. Emphasis on always Joy was the theme'of the January meeting of the After- noon Unit. Alma Langford was in charge and stated that it was oVen hard to consider joy in these hard times. But the Bible says, "rejoice always", with emphasis on "always". Why do we say Merry Christmas and Happy New Year? Why not the other way around? Merry and similar words being feelings of "outer things" that come and go, while Happy brings feelings of "inner things" that abide. There are many references to Joy in the Bible. In Pro- verbs it states "A merry heart doelh good like a medicine Jesus first miracle was performed at a wedding. Joy is something we can't keep to ourselves. Assisting with the program were Mabel Langford with the Scripture Reading, Ellen Forsythe, a solo I shall not - pass again this way; and Ger- trude Hamilton with New Year's Resolutions. These were - I resolve to start each day with prayer, to be kinder, to have more tolerance, more faith, more enthusiasm, a more humourous attitude to little things, to share more, to broaden my interests, and I will resolve to end each with a prayer of thanks. - Lauretta Siegner introduc- ed:the study book -South Pacific Shores.us Thelma Rsell was in charge of the business and welcomed the members.
