UCW theme
Love and People was the
thetne of the program at the
February meeting of the Ex-
eter U.C.W.
Mary Neil, who was in
charge, noted that for some
people St. Valentine's Day is
just a bit of sentimental
fglklbre, but the love for one
another and love of God are
qualities we need in our world
today. We have the ability to
demonstrate these qualities
not only on St. Valentine's
Day but every day.
Jean Murray read several
Scripture passages on the
therlhe of love. Myrtle Rodd,
Kay Green, Barbara Har-
rison and Alma Langford
read articles illustrating
faMily love, sacrificial love,
and self-denying love.
The leader stated that all
people are different, but, we
must love them as they are
without prejudice. 'The world
is better or worse for our hav-
ing been in it and it's our
outgoing love that makes the
differences' was the leader's
closing comment.
During the business session
chaired by Unit leader Jean
Murray the following dates
were confirmed:
Smorgasbord May 3; An-
niversary May 6; World Day
of Prayer March 2 at which
Meeting the Thames Road
and Elimville UCW's will be
guests.
At the March meeting Mrs.
Fi�•nkbeiner, Presbyterial
Literature secretary will
bring a display of books.
The craft show date has
been changed to April 14 and
entries were urgently re-
quested

To dance
for hearts
Exercise dancers from
fitness clubs across the pro-
vince will be participating in
"Dance -for -Heart" - a 3 hour
dancercise marathon during
the month of February.
February is "Heart Month"
in Canada and an appropriate
time for this province -wide ef-
fort by exercise dancers who
participate in any form of
aerobics/dancercise, to raise
money to fight heart disease
and stroke.
All proceeds from the
events will be donated to the
Canadian Heart Fund, On-
tario . Division, to help con-
tinue its support of heart and
stroke research in 3ntario.
Last year the "Dance -for -
Heart" marathon raised over
$13,000 for research and also
showed people, by example,
That exercise dance is fun and
helps promote cardiovascular
fitness.

The 23rd Psalm Updated -
A new God is thy Shepherd, I
am in want. He maketh me to
pay high interest rates; He
leadeth me into a depression.
He restoreth central power
and senators to cabinet; He
leadeth me down the path to
socialism for Lenin's sake.
Yea, though I live in the
Fraser Valley, I stay home at
night for I fear great evil.
The R.C.M.P. are not with
me; Thy justice and parole
board, they scare me. Thou
preparest a constitution and a
charter of human rights
before me. Without the
presence of my consent; Thou
sockest me with the high
price of oil, my tank runneth
empty. Surely my mortgage
shall follow me all the days of
my life, But mine MP's will
dwell in the House of Com-
mons forever. -
Mrs. Scott talked about the
different levels of the
Women's Institute, compar-
ing it to dropping a stone in a
