TAYLOR'S CORNER
A.Y.P.AI NOTES
On llloaday evening. September 22nd!,
St. George's A.Y.P.A. had called its
first meeting of the season, in the
form of a wiener rots t. However, th0
A.Y. was no match for the weather-
man, and so the approximately twenty-
five A.Y: ers and friends spent a few
hours of fellowship in games of bad-
minton, • Chinese checkers, cribbage,
"560," and dancing.
They were happy and honored, to
welcome as' their guests Rev. J. N.
Doidge and Mrs. . Doidge of London,
who are spending some time in tbls
district before going to Tillsonburg,
where Mr. Doidge will be rector of the
Augl.icau church.
Of "course, no young people's meeting
would be , omplete without lunch, and
so the hot dogs and coffee disappeared
with great speed.
