At the April 4 meeting, deputy reeve George Kadlecik said he was going to investigate the possibility of taking the fence down to make better use of the land. "I think taking that fence down would be catostrophic," said Green. "When I was on council I had phone calls at two or three in the morning about people partying down there and leaving it in a terri- ble mess. The OPP also told me its impossible for them to ticket the people down there. We spent $4-5 thousand putting that fence up and taking it down to create more park- ing is not the solution," said Green. Green added he felt if the village would negotiate with developer James Hevey for the beach parking lot it would solve a lot of problems because "when - people go down there, they "want to be as close to the beach as possible." "Taking the fence down isn't helping anybody butthe seasonal tourists. This council has said for some time now they want to do more for the full-time residents and taking that fence down is not the Craig seniors enjoy euchre AILSA CRAIG - The Happy Gang Seniors gathered at the Le- gion Hall on April 12. with our President Levi.

Nothing definite was done regard- ing the fence but Green wanted council to know about his concerns if it is taken down John Maychos, a Green Acres Drive resident, was in attendance to ask council for guidance to a prob- lem he has with Harbor Gate. Maychos told council that Harbor Gate has dug up 25 poplar trees from his back yard which has creat- ed an eight -foot hole and wires have also been left down. He wasn't sure what council could do about the situation but asked for any guidance they might be able to give. Maychos said Harbor Gate had told him they were going to clean up the mess but only after Harbor Gate Condominium Development asked him to sign an agreement, but he refused to sign until they gave him something in writing to fix what is wrong. He said he only wanted fixed what was wrong and . put up a fence because if someone got hurt in his yard at the large hole, he would be responsible. Council said they would sent the building inspector around to have a look at the problem but Kadlecik advised Maychos to contact his law- . "yet- if he wanted something more concrete done Maychos then in- formcd council that some of his neighbors have had the same prob- lem. The final delegation was Art Bloornas and he wanted to ask coun- cil about moving a hydro line that is blocking the entrance to his com- mercial establishment. Bloomas was informed through a letter from Stan Lovie, of the Grand Bend PUC, that the line could be moved but it would be an expensive venture. It would cost about $5,000 to move the line but it could also cause other problems like dark spot on'the road because of inconsistent streetlights and spotting of the poles. It was still unresolved whether the hydro pole will be moved or the driveway entrance to his commercial property at Village on the Ausable will be moved. It will be discussed further at the next planning com- mittee meeting. - GB church By Roberta Walker GRAND BEND - The Grand Bend United Church Women met last Thursday afternoon in the Sun- day School rooms of the Church with 19 members.

Catholic News This Fourth Sunday of Lent was designated Vocation Sunday in Can- ada. Pastor Father Paul Beck was celebrant at all weekend Masses at Immaculate Heart of Mary Church. The reader for the 11 a.m. Mass was Walter Costello, and the cantor was church organist Paul Dittrich. Walter and Madge Costello served as Communion Distributors. The choir performed, The Lord's My Shepherd, during the Communion time. In his sermon, Father Beck spoke of vocations and referred to the mot- to of St. Peter's Seminary in Lon- don "I will give you Pastors, ac- cording to my own heart" from Jeremiah. The gospel spoke of Christ as the Good Shepherd. This is what we need today - good, hon- est, sincere priests, pastors accord- ing to the heart of God, to pray for those we have, to pray for those studying at the Seminary and to pray for vocations for new priests for our future. Congratulations to Christine Du- charme, daughter of Ray and Grace Ducharme and Christopher Stewart, son of Mac and Ruby Stewart, who were joined in the sacrament of Holy Matrimony on Friday eve- ning. Congratulations also go to Laura Stokkermans, Brad Stokker- mans, Heather Stokkermans and Ju- lie Baltessen who celebrated their Sacrament of Reconcitiation (Pen- ance) this week for the first time. Church of God The Sunday morning service at the Grand Bend Church of God was opened by the Rev. Stan Desjardine reading the Call to Worship form Romans 12:1 "I appeal to you therefore brethren by the mercies of God, to present your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God." Millie Desjardine led the singing of hymns and George Winegarden sang a solo, I Believe in 'a Hill Called Mount Calvary. The morning message by the Pastor was titled, The Marks of a Christian. In today's society, Christians should live lives that.show love to the brethren and the whole world, sympathy for others, humility and kindheartedness. These are all char- acteristics taken from the Scripture passage in 1 Peter 3:8. We can pray this prayer, "Lord, open our eyes t� the hurts around us. Then help us to heal them with your love." The regular evening service was cancelled so that the congregation could attend the annual Christian Songsfest in Kitchener. A busload of members enjoyed thc . trip, and provided two vocal numbers in the service. Bible Study Eleanor Durie welcomed 20 ladies to Bible Study at the Sauble Court in Grand Bend last Tuesday morn- ing. Millie Desjardine led the hymn sing. They studied Lesson 6 "God Wants Us To God For The Gold," from "A Women's Workshop on Philippians." In Philippians 3:12 and 4:1, Paul exhorts his readers to forget about the past with its failures, sins and even achievements for good, but to run the race looking straight ahead to the prize of Heaven before us. Trusting Christ's righteousness and striving to know Him better are two ways thc Christian resembles the dedicated runner who has decided to "go for the gold." Pat Desjardine was the discussion leader and closed with prayer.
