Cromarty church celebrates,
Bombers win ball contest
By MRS. ROBERT LAING
CROMARTY
Mrs. Denton Taylor of
Belleville, chairman of the Board
of Congregational Life of the
Presbyterian Church in Canada,
was the guest speaker at the
anniversary services of
Cromarty Presbyterian Church
on Sunday morning. This was a
celebrtion of the 100th an-
niversary of the Presbyterian
Church in Canada, as well as the
110th birthday of the local
church.
Mrs. Taylor spoke on the topic,
"And What of Ourselves?" She
recalled several memories from
the times when, as a young girl,
she holidayed on her grand-
mother's farm at Cromarty, and
listed some of the heritage our
ancestors had given us.
In her conclusion, she pointed
out four needs in our modern
world. First, we need to know our
Bible better; second, we need to
take the time (there are still 24
hours in a day) to pause,
meditate and pray; third, giving
should be done with a feeling of
gratitude, returning a portion of
what God has given us. If we put
aside God's share first, there is
always enough for the other
things we need. Fourth, we need
to take time for neighbourliness,
and for our families. We have a
promise to keep with our an-
cestors who built our church with
a purpose. It is our job to carry on
the work in good faith.
Music for the service was
provided by the male quartet,
Murray Christie, Eldon Allen,
Robert Norris and Arthur Kemp,
who sang "Tell Someone about
Jesus", and "Just a Little Talk
with Jesus", and by the choir who
sang the anthem "Immortal,
Invisible". They were ac-
companied by the organist, Mrs.
F. Horne. The closing hymn was
the centennial hymn, "One
Hundred Years", sung to the tune
of "The Church's One Foun-
dation".
At the Park
Twin City Bombers, aided by
Harry Norris' spectacular cat-
ches in left field, turned the
tables on Slabtown Slammers on
Sunday night, defeating them 16-
9.
In their previous meeting on
June 11, Slabtown gave the
T.C.B.s their first trouncing.
Last Wednesday night Hibbert
North bantam boys lost out to
Hibbert South by a score of 13-7.
