The Irish crew dropped a 5-3 verdict in the opener at Wainfleet on Saturday after- noon and then were nipped 2-1 in an exciting contest on their home ice, Sunday.

In the opener, Wainfleet took a 2-0 lead in the first three minutes, but then had to rally late in the game to get the victory.

United Church on Sunday morning. Bob and his wife Joan are 'friends of the Browns and have been visiting with them for the weekend during their furlough travels. During the Sunday School hour, Joan told the children something about the life of Zambian village children and about the Sunday School work she does among them. The Luc in children were delighted to learn a Christian song in the Luchazi language. Bob mentioned briefly their work in a Bible School in Angola until 1975 when condi- tions made it necessary for them to leave the country and make a fresh start in Zambia. Ile described the Bible translation work which was his first assignment in that land. With the assistance of Zam- bians and the expertise of the Bible Society, the translation of the Mhunda Bible was com- pleted and checked and is now in the hands of the Bible Society for publication. Dur- ing these past few years also, he was able to establish a small new Bible Institute to seilLe the south western area of Zambia to train Zambian pastors to serve their own people. He spoke of the thrill of seeing the first class to complete the three year course gradtlate last December. Bob told the congregation about isake Mateus, a former student of his in Angola, who as a refugee from that war- torn land, was miraculously delivered from death at the hands of terrorists. This man became a valuable helper in the translation work and later one of the teachers at the Bi- ble School. "When God calls and saves us Ile has a purpose for each life," said Bob, "and Ile will bring it to pass. The important thing is to be open to His leading". Don and Anna Maguire served as welcome commit- tee for the morning. Dorothy Dedels with the assistance of husband Denny and Marj Park at the piano led in the monthly Outreach Committee pre -service sing song, and was also in charge of the children's story. She told the boys and girls about Rav who promised his dad to pull out the thistles, but delayed so long that they were almost impossible to remove. "it's like that with our bad habits," said Dorothy. "The secret is to get them out while they're still small!" The choir reminded the congregation of Jesus' sacrifice for us as they sang a lovely Lenten anthem, "Jesus took the cup". On Wednesday, the special Easter choir practice con- tinues at 8:15 and Junior Choir meet Thursday al 6:30 for their final practice before they sing at next Sunday's service. l'rayer and Share Fellowship meets Thursday in the C.E. wing at 9:45 a.m. and the Couples' Club Pot luck Supper is scheduled for 7 p.m. Larry ('ruttenden will he the speaker.

Chairperson Marj Park commented on the importance of this annual date in Lucan, and later in the program, Donna Vanaren- thals gave an enlightening summary of the life of St. Patrick. During the first hour, Ruthann Curtis and Elsie Kraft gave a tantalizing preview of "Food for all Seasons", a course they took recently with the Department of Agriculture and which they plan to repeat in detail for those who register for it. They described various herb and spice mixes which can be prepared beforehand for quick and more economical cooking. In addition, they shared food shopping tips for thrifty shoppers. in concluding, they describ- ed several cooking ventures they had undertaken recent- ly using the mixes and the recipe !ahok which is available for those who take the course. Following this presentation, Donna Vanarenthals and Shirley Ryan prepared and served an interesting array of green goodies, along with tea and coffee. Toni Davies in her Bible Study session commented that many of us are labelled in childhood with such negative remarks as "You can't do it!" and many adults make similar negative statements about themselves. "But", said Toni, "When we make ourselves available to Gad, He can use us in wonder- ful ways." The four groups then prepared skits on the themes, planting, watering, fertiliz- ing. and harvesting, il- lustrating how God can use our varied talents to com- municate God's Love to others. "With His power, we can do it!" concluded Toni. The final morning of the series is scheduled for Wednesday March 30. i,inda .tones will speak on "Skin care WINS AWARD Lucan Legion president Kenneth Wood, right, receives Branch 540 Legionnaire of the year award from Tom Healy.

Wainfleet scored the winner about four minutes after Hirt- , zel's equalizer and they add- ed an insurance marker on a powerplay at the 9:05 mark of the third. Sunday night, both goalies came up with solid efforts to keep the score low. Doug Haskett guarded the nets for Lucan, and was sharp throughout the game. The home team took a 1-0 lead in the first when Mike Dewan blinked the light on a passing play with Todd Hayter and Don Hugill. Wainfleet evened the count later in the first and then scored what turned out to be the winner at the 9:43 mark of the second stanza. • WI make donations The Lucan Women's In- stitute met in the Masonic Hall with president, Isabel Haskett presiding.

Chapter 122. Municipal Address: St. Patrick's Roman Catholic Church, R.R. 3 Lucan, Ont. NOM ?JO Reasons for the Proposed Designation: ARCHITECJURN,LY, St. Patrick's Church is a good example of Gothic Revival church design as erected in early pioneer days. It's plain ex- terior walls constructed of locally produced white brick are pleasantly relieved by perpen- dicular buttresses and slender Gothic windows. In contrast, the tall bold lines of the square brick tower topped by its lofty spire, lend strength to the frontal view of this house of worship. Incidentially, our present church is closely similar in architectural design and size to the first St. Peter's Cathedral built in 1854 in Lon- don and long since demolished to make woy for the present Cathedral Basilica. ii. HiSTORIt AL`Y too, this ecclesiastical struc- ture is worthy of note. Built in 1858-1859 by Irish settlers who along with their neighbours were clearing the land in Biddulph and London Townships it became a focal point of divine worship, in good times and in bad, in times of rejoicing and tragedy, for the past century and a quarter. Any person may, within thirty days of the first publication of this notice, send by registered mall or deliver to the Clerk of the Township of Biddulph notice of his or her objection to the proposed designation together with a state- ment of the reasons for the objection and all relevant facts. If such a Notice of Objection is received, the Council of the Corporation of the Township of Biddulph shall refer the motter to the Conservation Review Board for a hearing. DATED at R.R. 1, Lucan, Ont. this 16th day of March 1983. (Austin Hodgins) Clerk
