Pierce was in charge of the morning worship Sunday, entitling his message "The Stilling of the Storm". This had to dom with the time that Jesus was talking to the crowd from a ship, later a very bad storm came up, when Jesus was at rest. The Disciples were afraid that they would drown and they called on Jesus to save them, Jesus rebuked them for their lack of Faith m "I think it is the fear of the waves that are knocking us about on the inside that bothers us rather than on the outside. It is time for us to turn to the Lord when we can- not any longer keep afloat and are sinking. ,Friends, just because Jesus is in the boat, it is not all smooth sailing, but it is safe sailing, said the Minister. In his story to the children the Rev. Pierce used the ex- ample of a turtle to explain to them that they should not hide their heads in a shell when so- meone is in trouble, but stick their necks out and see what they can do to help.

Poultry club have barbecue By Harold Wiederman If you saw smoke rising over the Stanley Park Pavilion on September 12, rest assured there was no ma- jor fire. It was just the Huron County 4-H Poultry Club hav- ing their second annual barbecue. Chef Tim Kruse was at the wheel once again this year, cooking up those delicious hamburgers and hotdogs. Before the meal the members . occupied themselves with frisbees on the beach and some brave souls even went in swimming. (Try to remember your swimming trunks next year, B.K.) After being sufficiently frozen in the Arctic Ocean, (Lake Huron), and having eaten a week's supply of food, the members occupied themselves with other diver- sions. These included the old ice cubes down the pants trick, and feeding leftover hotdogs to stray canines. The members spotted a garbage can, but alas, a certain member from Dashwood couldn't. make it. After everyone had enough sun, sand and food, we all packed up and went',,away, looking forward to next year.
