The Ontario Provincial Police "Strict is Fair" policy of highway traffic enforcement will be in effect over the coming Thanksgiving Holi- day weekend, a time when families across the province gather for tradi- tional homecoming celebrations. Commissioner Archie Ferguson is pleased to announce that the number of holiday weekend motor vehicle fatalities have been reduced by 43 percent this year, on OPP patrolled roadways, in comparison with 1985. . -A total of 24 fatal collisions over the combined Easter, Victoria Day, Civic Holiday and Labour Day weekends claimed 31 lives, compared with 54 people killed in 44 separate accidents. "This significant reduction in lives lost cannot be attributed to chance", Commissioner Ferguson said. "But to the combined efforts of our officers and the motoring public, which has developed improved driving habits and safety awareness on the road." • Despite the decline in fatalities, the two main contributors to fatal ac- cidents are still the same - excessive speed and impaired driving. The OPP is committed to com- bating these two problems through the use of radar and the "Strict is Fair" and R.I.D.E. programs. In a further bid to save lives, officers will be paying special attention to the use of seat belts by motorists. UC sermon based on coconut in bag Fresh flowers adorned the altar from the wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Don Huggins and the sun shone the first time in days for Sunday's United Church service. Greeters, at the door were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Cowdrey and family. Beth Cowdrey read the scripture lesson - taken from 1st Corinthians chapter 11 verses 23 to 40 which tells the story of the Lord's Supper. This was Worldwide Communion Service Day. We approached the table fully aware of our unworthiness, but secure in the knowledge that lie has made us His children, aware of the seriousness of our participation and the responsibilities that are ours on accepting His invitation. The children's story "It's in the bag" turned out to be a "coconut". A sermon on a coconut would be "the sincere'milk of the word," right; not necessarily. Rev. Shaule had another idea. Ile divided the coconut into three parts, the shell, the flesh and the milk. Our bodies are made up of three parts. The visible outside part, the inside area, the soul and the middle being the spirit. All parts made in God's im- age - by God Himself - for total com- munication with Him. Two solos were sung by Miss Jen- nifer MacDonald, accompanied by Michelle Merredith on the piano. Birthdays will be celebrated this next week by Doris Weir and Alec Young. Mr. Young will be 88 years old. Our congratulations go out to them and any others "Celebrating at this time. A VHS and VCR were presented by the Couple's Club to the church to be used in Christian education. The sermon"Remember Me"given by Darrell Shaule exhorted us to remember Jesus. All good gifts, all perfect gifts, everything we own and are come directly from Him. Even all this rain has some pur- pose, we can't see it but put our faith in Him. He is in control - never again will we be asked to build an ark, He promised. He gave us His rainbow in the sky. No matter how busy our lives we cannot live without God and we must never forget Him. Life without God is a "desert" experience. 4-444.

President Mrs, Marlene Thornton read 11 Corinthians 4: 7-9 to open the meeting. In the absence 01 a piano player, Mrs. June Henry pro- vided music from a tape player, with Mrs. Thornton leading in chorus singing. Mrs. Emma Crouch, guest speaker, likened the Women's Ministries to the women who worked with the men in building the tabernacle in the wilderness in Exodus 35:10 and 22. To- day the church is not just a physical building as the tabernacle was. Only the high priest could go into God's presence in the Holy of Holies. Today we can come into God's presence in prayer. We are lively stones growing in the Lord. Mrs. Crouch stated that women should never think they are not im- portant. God uses all willing women. Women were there when Jesus rose from the dead, and carried His message. A woman bore Jesus. When Joseph and Mary brought Jesus to the temple, both a man and a woman greeted them, and prophesied about Jesus. As Anna spoke of Jesus to all who were in Jerusplem people's hearts were stirred. - Mrs. Thornton presented each lady with a little gift of a carnation. Light refreshments were served. Sunday Morning Nello Romagnoli, accompanied by Mr. Larry McGill playing the piano, led the song service Sunday morning. Rev. Roger Mason spoke about biting words from Psalm 140:1-3, from so- meone David knew. There are many different kinds of bites, from mild in- sect bites, more serious animal bites, to very serious snake bites. These all pierce or cut, and tear, as can a sword. Words can cut, wound, and tear one inside. Words can sting and irritate us. This Psalm is a prayer for protec- tion for David against. known enemies. Biting words are attacking words as verse three states, with a tongue sharpened ready to attack, like a serpent. Biting words, like a viper, are deadly words. ',Biting words, in verse 11, are slnderous that tell malicious false stories to ruin someone's reputation. In Nehemiah 6:6-7 an enemy's letter accuses Nehemiah falsely of rebelling against the king. The letter intended to cause bitterness and attacked Nehemiah's character. Nehemiah passed it off as an insect bite 'you try to ignore. • Sunday evening Doug Butler led the singing with Mr. Larry McGill play- ing the piano. Rev. Roger Mason spoke from James 3:5.8, describing poisoning words. These words are often masked so that we do not recognize them so they can poison our minds and destroy our welfare. They, like poison, are subtle. But after tak- ing it we don't feel well. We may be unaware we touched or ingested poison. Poisoned words can infect our -minds to turn us against an innocent person. These poisonqus words even affect our relationship with God. Numbers 16:11 shows how rebellious words from rebels against Moses' leadership poisoned the peo- ple against leaders Moses and Aaron. Moses rebuked the rebels who spoke in bitterness, slandering Moses. God judged these rebels and their families as the earth swallowed them and burned them. When the people con- tinued to complain, God judged them by sending a plague that killed many. Aaron and Moses' intervention before God spared the rest of the people.
