They persuaded the Mandrell sisters to entertain at Tanis Chuter's bridal shower with promises of a mink coat each, manufac- tured from Cbuter mink. Bar- bara (Debbie Rathwell) and her sisters (Pat Taylor and Shirley Taylor) presented an enjoyable program of vocal and instrumental music, lip - singing their way with a great deal of skill and action. Peggy Reid was the an- nouncer, dressed in a "mink" coat. Also on the program was a song with guitar ac- companiment by Shirley Taylor and piano solos by Jacqui Taylor. Bonnie Dowson read a poem outlining Tanis' duties as a wife, and she was assisted in epening her many gifts by her mother and Mrs. Denomme. Friends and neighbours are invited to an open reception in Hensall on Saturday night, and Sharon is holding open house on Monday at her home. Eleven members of Varna U.C.W. attended the Regional meeting in Londesboro Church on Tuesday, October 5 when the twentieth anniver- sary of the organization was celebrated with the theme "Past, Present and Future". Theme speaker was Mrs. G. W. Tiffin of Wingham. Near- ly all of the 1962 local presidents were present, and Mrs. Elsie McKingley of Goshen, Regional President At Inauguration, had the honour of cutting the anniver- sary cake. An interesting program on the history of women's organizations in the church in Canada was given by Joyce Dowson at the October meeting of Varna U.C.W. There are records of meetings going back to 1871. From the earliest days, clothing and food was provid- ed for theneedy, and support was given to overseas mis- sions for evangelical, medical and educational work, par- ticularly with girls. One group in an eastern city even paid for street lights and a lamplighter. Some interesting methods of money raising were recorded. For instance, the eggs laid on Sundays were sold for the church for 8 cents a dozen. The Inaugural meeting in 1962 was held in the church with Rev. Pitt presiding. Ruby Hill was installed as the first president, and there were 46 names on the roll. The`. first life membership in the U.C.W. was presentedtoMrs. John McAsh in 1963 and the baptismal bowl was purchas- ed with the money. Joyce listed all of the presidents; and the many pro- jects carried out over the years, including the purchase of stacking chairs, water heater, sink cupboard, carpets and many others. They saved Campbell soup labels to buy one of the coffee makers. Meal prices have in- creased from ;1.75 to ;5.75. .during the 20 years. In- teresting program events were remembered, too. Lorraine Taylor took part in the worship service with Sc.t.MoInar gets Alis. Craig praise ay ALICE DICKENS Often much publicity is given to someone who wins a race orbeauty contest but sometimes good deeds are overlooked or forgotten. This past summer ten year old Scot Molnar, son of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Molnar, 787 Dundalk Drive, London, rescued a seven year old playmate from drowning in a 30 ft. water filled hole. The hole had been left unguarded after excavation work had been done there. Scot knew he could . not leave his little friend to go for help and that he must do something at once to save him. Tying clothing and a rope to a long pole, he rescued his chum. • Scot's mother, the former Sheila Armstrong of Maple Lodge Stock Farm, a one time student at Parkhill High School, a member of Carlisle Church, and on the Nursing staff of Exeter Hospital, is well-known in this area. The residents of Maple Lodge community were delighted on hearing of Scot's heroic deed. At this Thanksgiving season he has given us one. more thing for which to be thankful, and no doubt many friends and relatives of the rescued boy will be thankful and long remember the • thoughtfulness of Scot Molnar.
