How do you gather news for the paper when the main topic of controversy this past three weeks has been the weather? We weathered\ week No. 1 in all its severity hoping it wouldn't last long and that no one would suffer inconviences, such as il- lnesses in the homes or be- ing storm stayed, or shor- tage of food, or, well, you name it! Along came week no. 2 with extreme cold temperatures. And now no. 3 -) a repeat session! Looking backward, we can now recall a sense of satisfaction in those three day storms - once the family is all gathered in for the duration. and that nothing arose in the way of crisis. Years ago in the rural areas a farmer joined by a neighbour would make a trip to town with team and sleigh for supplies, the mall, and bread then, as now, was the staff of life, and it wasn't easy to substitute with scones or biscuits for more than a day or two. The telephone. was the medium of communication - neighbour to neighbour. There was so many ways of being concerned for others, and those same con- cerns still exist, though, perhaps the matter of travel is more predominant. Safety on the roads is very impor- tant. Personals Mr. and Mrs. Ted Stewart and family, Sarnia visited recently with his parentst Mr. and Mrs. Gordon C. Stewart. Belated birthday greetings to Mr. Wm. Leitch who quietly observed his 90th birthday, January 20. Word has been received of the sudden passing of Dr. James.- D. Smart of Islington, Saturday, January 23. Dr. Smart was a former minister of the Ailsa Craig Presbyterian Church from 1931-34. A quiet family ser- vice was held on Monday, followed by a memorial ser- vice in Rosedale Presbyterian church, Toron- to, Wednesday. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Howard Dorman who observe their 64th wedding day this week. Focus- on Family The South Huron Ministerial Association has announced that it will be sponsoring the showing of the Dobson Series called, "Focus On The Family". The films deal with specific issues and problems that face the modern family. Each of the films is about one hour long and will be followed by discussion groups to discuss the issues raised in the film. The films will be shown on Tuesday evening for six weeks beginning February 2, at 8:00 p.m. in the Exeter United Church on James Street. The dates and topics are as follows: Feb. 2 - The Strong Willed Child. Feb. 9 - Shaping the 11 Without Breaking the Spirit. Feb. 16 - Christian Father- ing. Feb. 23 - Preparing for Adolescence: The Origin of Self -Doubt. Mar. 2 - Preparing for Adolescence: Peer Pressure and Sexuality. March 9 - What Wives Wished their Husbands Knew About Women: The Lonely Housewife. Mar. 9 - What Wives Wish- ed Their Husbands Knew About Women: Money, Sex, and Children. These films are rated very excellent, and talk about these subjects openly, and from the Christian Perspec- tive. The Ministerial highly recommends them to the public, and urges people to come out to these films, not just to see them, but to share them and live them in their homes The film showings are free to the public, having found support from the Churches in the Ministerial to pay all the expenses. The South Huron Ministerial Association is a collegium of churches and pastors in South Huron which has been in existence for some years and has serv- ed the members pastors with inter -denominational fellowship and learning. McGillivray - McGillivray township council met January 18, a week late due to weather conditions. Lewis Tasko and Ralph Devlaeminch were in atten- dance on the Taskoe- Devlaeminch Drain. Mr. A. Kruspel of Spriet and Associates explained the drain design. The by-law was given two readings. A letter was received from Marg Furtney concerning In- terest charges on the Bullock drain. Council will look into the matter of ad- ding interest charges, and will see what other municipalities are doing on drain repairs before reaching a decision. The 'road employees were called in to discuss wages for 1982. Council will meet with the employees again January 26 to discuss wages. The next regular meeting of council will be held Mon- day, February 1. Tile drain loan monies are now all used up. The next drainage year "commences Badminton alive at SH In 1975, a small group of students and their coach Pat Rowe formed the South Huron badminton club, so that they could get top flight competition. Since then, the club has grown steadily to its present membership of 66 players. The reason for the club's existence has chang- ed, as well. "My original intention in forming the club was to produce high calibre players. Today. the club has a social and recreational atmosphere, and that's okay", said club president and founder, Pat Rowe. When Rowe came to South Huron in 1971 badminton was a low priority varsity sport at South Huron. That year, Rowe started running an open bandminton session, one night a week. However, it was with the encourage- ment of Tony Kyle and Susan Luther, two former students and badminton players, that the club was formed under the auspices of the Ontario Badminton Association. The club, which is open to students -and teachers at South Huron, provides m- petitive players with an op- portunity to play all winter in preparation for the short high school season in April and May. "The boy's basketball season just finished and Huron -Perth is only a couple of weeks away", she said. According to Rowe, the club was indirectly responsible for the alltime high of four players that South Huron sent to the OFSAA badmin- ton championships, last May in Kapuskasing. Thursday, with the assistance of Level two OBA coach Ken MacDonald, and several players from the University of Western On- tario, the club ran a clinic which instructed some 35 players in the tactics of doubles badminton. Rowe emphasizes that this service is all part of the club's membership in the OBA. "For ten dollars, the kids get a newspaper, Storm cancels Anglican sermon By MRS. E. SUMMERS GRANTON At 'St Thomas Anglican Church; 'Rev. Greg Smith Conducted the service .of morning prayer, Sunday. Mrs. Ron Hardie read the first lesson from Jonah 31 Verses 1-5-10. The second lesson was read by Susan Noon from Mark 1 Verses 14- 20. As the storm had worsen- ed during the service, the rector cancelled his sermon. The services at Granton United Church and the Wesley charge were cancell- ed due to the severity of the weather. Please note that the cancelled congregational meeting at Granton United Church will be held next Sun- day January 31 at the conclu- sion of the service. • CGIT Chris Currah was in charge of the meeting Wednesday evening at the United Church and chose as her roll call "If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go?" The gospel night at CGIT (community of Granton in June) was discussed. This wilt be held in Granton United Church, Sunday March 7 at 7 p.m. There are still openings for people (children, adults and families) to participate in a night of gospel music. Continuing with the Bible study on the ABCs of Proverbs. Chris had for her topic "Correction and Discipline are good for peo- ple. but to -treat other folks as graciously as you would your own". This is taken from Proverbs 27 Verses 5 and 6. Guist speaker for the evening was Heidi Hayden whose subject was "Don't let go of Loyalty and Faithfulness" based on Proverbs 11 verse 13. This demonstrated that you should never say anything about anyone unless it is for their good. The meeting continued by doing role plays on "Gossip" which showed that it doesn't take much to spread a false rumor and that you can never completely undo the wrong. April 1, 1982. A grant to the Federation of Agriculture will be dealt with after council has talked to representative Alan Hill.

Mr. McCann, also, objected to in- terest charges being added to the drain. manuals and information about tournaments" emphasized Rowe. "It's the best amateur athletic association that I've been in- volved with." naamunton Is alive and well at South Huron and will continue to be as long as peo- ple with the enthusiasm of Pat Rowe are involved in it. Senior basketball A strong team effort by the South Huron senior boys basketball, resulted in a 49- 40 home -court victory against Central Huron, Fri- day. The win against Clinton gives the team a 2-2 Huron - Perth record when they host Stratford Northwestern tomorrow in a crucial game which may decide the Panther's playoff hopes. "We controlled (Jeff) Schmidt and shut him down inside. John Mol did a super job on him (the Clinton cen- tre)", said veteran guard Dave Woodward, who scored a season high thirteen points. Mol had 14 points at the other end of the floor, while limiting Schmidt to seven- teen points. Billy Tugwell had 13 points, as Clinton's second highest scorer. Woodward, for his part, showed some of the accurate shooting from the top of the key that characterized his play last year. John McAllister led the Panthers with 8 rebounds and seven points. Monday. John Mol had a season -high 22 points in a see -saw battle in which the Panthers were edged 50-46 by Parkhill North Middlesex. The loss is one of three that the Panthers have suffered at the hand of the Marauders, so far this season. The team suffered two losses, 43-22 against Medway and 49-33 against London Wheable. in a weekend tour- nament in Arva. Dave Woodward had nine points and John Mol had eight as the Panthers were outplaYed by Medway. The Cowboys led 33-11 at the half and then coasted to an easy victory. South Huron was tied with Wheable enter- ing the final quarter before they fell apart in their con- solation semi-final match.
