ROBERT LAING About 35 members and their guests attended the annual Christmas party of Cromarty Ladies Aid and Marian Ritchie Evening Auxiliary on Monday evening in the Sunday School room. This year the Ladies Aid planned the program with Pearl James presiding. Lillian Douglas opened it with a reading of the Christmas Beatitudes. Using the Christmas Devotional from the Glad Tidings magazine, Mrs. James led in the litany and the meditation was taken by Mrs. Douglas and Joyce Miller.

In her presentation, Mrs. Wolfe gave several hints such as placing all the greenery first, rotating the arrangement as you work, clean- ing off all greenery stems that go in- to the water, and never pulling stems part way out of the oasis but rather pulling them right out and inserting them in a fresh spot. The large table centre which she made was won in a draw by Eve Chabassol, and the corsage by Helen Parsons. -A delicious buffet lunch was served by the Marian Ritchie members. No doubt Cromarty Ladies Aid members were surprised last week to find that they had met at Pearl James's home for their last meeting. My apologies to Pearl and to Rober- ta Templeman who was really the hostess. Rev. Robert Johnston of Baden was the guest speaker at Sunday's church service and he spoke on the meaning of Advent and its call to people to re- joice. He also shared some of his ex- periences in his work as a missionary in the Inner -City. Steven Pullmanlit the first Advent Candle and was assisted by LariJo Gardiner in the Adient Ceremony. Mrs. Ivan Norris played a medley of Christmas carols as a prelude and ac- companied Jean Carey, Cathy Elliott, Margaret Miller and Alice Gardiner as they sang In a Cave.
