Each driver and co- pilots were given written directions- They were to obey the rules of the road. Each car's co-pilot had to have a King James Bible for Scriptures references for making proper turns, and directions. Certain objects on the way were to be properly identified and written down. Names of objects, places, buildings, businesses, etc., had to be written down. Each car had to count certain ob- jects along the way. The route took them in a very roundabout way. A Scripture verse told them the exact place where the directions led them to the destination, the Hebron House. When everyone had arrived, they enjoyed a smorgasbord dinner, pro- vided by those who took part in the rally. After the dinner they enjoyed a time of fellowship singing to guitar playing. Winners of the Rally were driver Et John Sloetjes, with co-pilots Barbara Sloetjes, and Steve and Ruth Meszaros. Rev. Roger Mason presented them with a lovely trophy for their efforts. Doug Butler accompanied Mrs. Marty Butler playing his syntheziser as she led the song service Stigday morning. Rev. Roger Mason read a letter from Miss Betty Butter, mis- sionary to Haiti, Miss Butler wrote how God answered prayer delivering Haiti from a cyclone. There is rich shooting, looting, rape in Haiti, mak- ing it unsafe to be on the streets after 9 p.m. Rev. Mason ministered from Mark 8:34-38, where Jesus gave the major calling to be a disciple of Him meant giving up all to follow Him. A Chris- tian's life is not going to work without a radical commitment to Jesus Christ. Jesus called the people there with His disciples to press upon them what He required for a person to be His disciple. This call to full commitment to Jesus gets rid of those who like to dabble in Christianity. For a Chris- tian's faith to work his life must be in line with faith in Christ. In verse 34 Jesus stated whoever desired to be His disciple had to deny himself. This is a decisive action Jesus will press a new Christian to making a decision to follow Him total- ly. In making this deicsion, a Chris- tian denies his own self centredness and interests. Worldliness is living by your own rules by the dictates of your own self interests. To be a disciple of Jesus this kind of thought and way of living must die. Communion was served after the service. Playing his guitar, Rod Anderson joyfully led in singing choruses. Anderson taught a chorus I Love to Sing. Rev. Roger Mason spoke from 1 Corinthians 15:57-58. Paul exhorts the Christians in Corinth to remain steadfast in their faith. Because some of these Christians were fickle this ex- hortation was needed. Paul urged AQ MAKE APPLE BIRDS - Mrs. Diane O'Shea showed St. Patrick's Separate School students John Lan - sink, Lindsay Parsons and Jules FI'attyn how to make birds out of apples. T -A photo. New county education director' Edward (Ted) Anderson, formerly of Woodstock, has assumed duties as Middlesex County's new director of education and secretary of the Mid- dlesex County Board of Education. He joined the Board on September 1 and since then h@s been visiting schools and communities throughout the county, meeting teachers and in- terviewing trustees and school prin- cipals, to familiarize himself with various aspects of the Middlesex system. He says, "This has been a most in- formative and enjoyable way to get to know the people of the system as TED ANDERSON well as the school sites and facilities. I have found that the excellent reputa- tion that Middlesex has is well deserv- ed; and I'm impressed with the plan- ning and operating procedures as well as the program documents being us- ed in the county." He adds, "I'm grateful that the Middlesex school trustees supported the month-long overlapping arrange- ment for the orderly transfer. of responsibilities of the Director." A school superintendent in Oxford County since 1982, Ted Anderson began his teaching career in Brant County and was later principal of Listowel District Secondary School and Timmins High and Vocational School. Teacher meetings to be smokeless District 41, Middlesex County's unit of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers' Federation, has declared its council and executive meetings to be smoke free this year. The decision comes when the Mid- dlesex Board has formally adopted its policy statement, Toward A Smoke Free Environment. The policy, discussed with employee representatives, en- courages staff members this year at schools that are not already smoke free to establish designated smoking areas and times. Where this is already done, they are urged to plan reducing the time. The goal is to have the Board's of- fices and schools eventually smoke free.

Co -Op nursery now underway Co-operative means giving of yourself, your time and sharing a uni- que experience with your child. This is probably the only level -of education your child has, where you, as parents, will be so involved. The children's needs are para- mount, our school provides the time, the place and the people to meet their need for love, understanding, social contact responsibility, learning and creativity. The Lucan and District Co- operative Nursery School is licenced and inspected by the Ministry of Com- mercial and Social Services. The teacher, Mrs. Coreen Davis, has an Early Childhood Education Degree and she taught kindergarten and grades one to four for 10 years before coming to the school. She is an ex- cellent teacher, has a warm and understanding relationship with the children, and she has made our job as Executive (fiVe volunteer parents) much easier. We operate three classes, 16 per class, each class attend two sessions per week, (2'.2 hours per session), on Tuesday/Thursday mornings, Wednesday/Friday mornings, or Wednesday/Friday afternoons, at a cost of $30 per month. There are two duty day parents who. work at each class with the teachers. We must have a ratio of three adults for 16 children. Each family is respon- sible for working duty days, (12 per school year), be on a committee (e.g. housecleaning, fundraising, etc.) and attend monthly general meetings. Some working parents make ar- . rangements to have others work their duty days. We are situated at the Scout and Guide Hall, a perfect loca- tion with the park and the facilities of a brand new building. We still have a few openings - give our Registrar a call at 227-4142.

YC to open new quarters On this "Worldwide Communion Sunday" the lesson on "Unity" was part of Rev. Shaule's message to Lucan United Church. United together around God's table,. as one family, in love - God has made eachone of us different.. Color, age, life style, expectations and values -we each are unique: but Jesus offers Himself to all of us, the same. He is the vine- we, even with those dif- ferences, are the branches. The Cross, is the vocal point, where we all meet, right in the centre, our unity is there. He committed His life for us, can we do less. How much do -we love Him? The lower church hall and the Sun- day School rooms are as you know, all being renovated. This work is almost completed and worthy of your in- dividual inspection. Next Sunday, a special Thanksgiv- ing service is planned and after the service a ribbon -culling ceremony to mark the opening of this new facili- ty. A luncheon will follow for the whole congregation. Plan to celebrate 'with us. Times -Advocate, October 7, 1987 Page 5A STUDENT COUNCIL AT ST.

LUCO n and district news Susan Cook 227-4911 Squirrel free again after tender care On Sunday morning of September 20 Animal Control officer Howard Currie of Lucan was called by OPP officer Wilson to look after a little squirrel that had just bitten a little girl on Alice St. in Lucan. The little squirrel was eating a crab apple when the child tried to pick it up. The squirrel automatically nipped the child, leaving a tiny red mark. It did not draw blood. Upon examining the squirrel, Mr. Currie and officer Wilson decided it was healthy. But because it had nip- ped the child, officer Wilson had to report it to the Board of Health, and the Department of Environment. Cur- rie took the squirrel home in a cat crate. Next day Mrs. Currie received a call from the Department of Environ- ment asking about the squirrel. Upon learning it was quite healthy. and eating well, they asked if they could keep it confined for two weeks. Mrs. Currie assured them they could. But the cat crate was too small. Mr. and Mrs. Currie then transfered the squirrel into a larger puppy crate by unceremoniously dumping it from the little crate to the larger one. of course, the squirrel did not thank them for this. There is a water dish attached to the crate, and Mr. Currie placed a small plastic dish full of bird seed in the crate for the squirrel to eat. Also every day he got tiny carrots which he slid through the wires for the squirrel. This kindness was met each time with much angry chattering, and even attacks at his fingers. As time went on, .this little red and grey squirrel got angrier at being confin- ed in a plastic crate, even though he was well fed. It would -sometimes hang on the wire vents of the crate, chattering at all who came near. But it sure could eat enough. Mrs. Currie took pictures through the wires of this cute little red and grey squirrel. Monday, as it is still quite health9, according to the Departments of Health and Environment. the squir- rel will he released into a nearby woodlot, where Mr. and Mrs. Currie hope it can lead a happy life, free from a confining crate.
