A word of Busy week for Lucan OPP LUCAN - Thirty-five investiga- tions and seven motor vehicle acci- dents were hand!ed by Lucan De- tachment of the Ontario Provincial Police during the past week. Criminal occurrences included: one break and enter, one theft and a wilful damage complaint at the Granton cemetery. Assault charges were laid in connection with a do- mestic dispute and a drug investiga- tion involving the cultivation of marijauna was started. Six of the motor collisions in- volved only minor injuries or prop- erty damage, however one accident on Friday, September 15, 1989 re- sulted in claiming the life of a Lu - can man. The accident occurred about 7:30 p.m. on Biddulph Township Concession Rd. 2-3, just north of Highway 7., A 1975 Blue Ford Torino driven by Elizabeth Edwards, 38, of 196 Water St. Lucan was northbound on Concession Rd. 2-3 when it skidded and Icft the road and struck a tree. Dead is Leroy Logan, 70, of 224 George St. Lucan, Ontario. Edwards and her husband, Wayne, a passenger in the vehicle received Minor tiljurics. Elizabeth Edward has been charged with Impaired Driving Causing Death and with Driving in Excess of 80 Mgs. of Alcohol. She is to appear in court on September 22, on these charges. Under the Criminal Code, persons who operate motor vehicles under the influence of alcohol or drugs are subject to four offences: impaired driving, driving with a blood alco- hol level over 80 milligrams and impaired driving causing either bod- ily harm or death. Minimum penal: ties start at S300.00 fines and a driving prohibition order and range up to a maximum 5 years impris- onment. Impaired driving causing bodily harm or death have penalties of up to 14 year sentences. If you consume alcohol so that blood alcohol levels are over 80 mgs. of alcohol per each 100 milli- liters of blood then you may be charged with exceeding the legal limit. If your ability to drive a mo- tor vehicle is at all impaired by al- cohol then you are charged with im- paired driving regardless of how low or high your blood alcohol levels are. For example,if your blood al- cohol reading is only 40 mgs.. but your coordination is affected, you can still be charged with impaired driving. Any motorized vehicle (including farm tractors, ATC's) is a motor ve- hicle and the offence can occur any- where. Motor boats or vessels are also subject to these laws. Next week, the Breathalyzer and Alert will be discussed. caution - the black flies are also out in the numbers. I recommend, dur- ing the trip up to the Canyon, you forego the use of any perfumed product as these attract them and take along some fly repellent. In any event a trip up to the Canyon is a must!!! You will be glad that you did. And that's 30 for this time, re- member - If people keep telling you to quit smoking don't listen - they're probably trying to trick you into living. Revival Centre LUCAN - Sunday morning Tim Kritzer was accompanied by Mrs. Lorraine Armitage playing the pia- no, Mr. Doug Butler the synthesiz- er, Verle Bende the guitar, and Mr. Dan Wuerch playing his trumpet, as he led the singing. The trio of Mrs. Cheryl Wuerch, Miss Lauren Harri- son, and Matthew Heffernan joined them. Mrs. Jane Bende sang The Revelation. Rev. Roger Mason spoke from Matthew 7:1-6. The Bible forbids us to be critical. Negative unrigh teous ways of judging is wrong. Do not habitually sit in judgement and criticize others lest you be judged and criticized yourself. Being oblivious to one's own faults hinders one from helping an- other overcome faults. This is dis- honest judgement. To help correct another's faults, a Christian has to first assess his own life, then with a gentle spiritual attitude help anoth- er. Rev. Mason closed reading a poerh, The Wrecking Crew, telling that Christians are not called to be wreckers, but builders of lives. Dan Wuerch led the song service Sunday evening with Mrs. Cheryl Wuerch, Mrs. Jane Bende, and Mat- thew Heffeman. Rev. Roger Mason ministered from John 10:26-30, of Jesus as the Good Shepherd, over the Lord's sheep, Christians. People become God's sheep when they believe in Jesus according to John 3:16-17 and John 1:12. The Lord's sheep hear His voice giving them guidance to obey. Je- sus knows each Christian as one of His sheep. Jesus' sheep, Christians, have been given eternal life, as 1 John 5:11-12 promises spiritual ev- erlasting life. In John 10:10 Jesus said He came to give Christians abundant life, secure in serving Him. Upcoming events - Saturday, Oc- tober 7, Yard Sale - on church lawn. Money raised is to help build a par- sonage for native pastor in Haiti. Keep cracking - Sunday's breakfast provided by the Lucan-Biddulph firemen was a huge success.
