The meeting opened with the hymn followed by prayer, by Muriel Snider. The lovely quilt the ladies finished during the winter was admired by all and it was decided to send it to the Sheils family, Missionaries at home due to illness, now residing in Tillsonburg. It was decided to hold the next meeting, a picnic, at the home of Janet Talbot, on June 21st at 6:30 p.m. with each member bringing a picnic lunch, and their own table service. Every one joined in the Prayer Circle. Muriel Snider, the president, thanked Mina Talbot for so willingly filling in on our Spring Rally with her slides and discription of her trip to the Holy Land, especially on such short notice when other plans had to be put aside. It was agreed that every one enjoyed it very much. The speaker for the evening was Lillian Steckle, a very active member of the group; she took her topic from 1st Kings the 10th chapter, and spoke about the Queen of Sheba coming a great distance to see King.,Solomon, because she had heard a lot about himand and his fabulous 'wealth and great wisdom. We. too, if we are far from God must come a distance to reach and know our Lord Today God will answer our questions the same as Solomon answered the ones for the Queen, and we must joyfully accept His answers even if we don't always get the exact ,answer we want. We must be a "Link in the chain of others hearing about our Saviour". She closed asking "How do we measure up, even here in Bayfield?" Our Saviour will give us our greatest desires if we believe on Him and have accepted Him as personal Saviour. Muriel Snider thanked Lillian for her thought provoking message, and Dianna Harrison closed the meeting with Prayer. Refreshments were supplied by the President and Mrs. Ranney. + + + Mr. and Mrs. Harvey Farrelly from London visited last Sunday with Mr. and Mrs. Norm Talbot, Mr. and Mrs. Les Talbot and Cari Lynn; they were ac- companied by their three daughters, Cathy, Elizabeth and Barbara, and two of their friends.

Brian Harrison, showed a Movie Film, called "The Occult". This showed the Satanic worship in the church of Satan most prevelant in the State of California but also working its way into our country. This film was made by the noted author, Hal Lindsay who wrote the "e he late great planet earth" and several other well known books. - The Pastor in his remarks after the film said that only the Christians-. who have asked Christ into their hearts and accepted Him as Saviour are safe from the Satan in- fluence existing in the present day. After the service a fireside hour was spent in the basement of the church, with „refreshments and a social time enjoyed by all present. + + + `. A Youth Retreat was held at Camp Canby over the weekend under the leadership of the Rev. Brian Harrison, of the Bayfield Baptist Church. The young people came from this area .also from Exeter, Grand Bend and even from as far away as Brantford. They reported a good turnout and a very enjoyable and educational time. They were given plenty of recreation, Bible study, devotions, an excellent film, and oodles of good food. A special thanks goes out to all those who helped make this weekend such a success. To the volunteer cooks, chaperones, and the nurse on duty there, as well as to Pastor and Mrs. Harrison.

(News -Record photo) Police to issue fines for errant dogs, bikes The Clinton Police reported that they have laid over 11 charges in the past three days. Otherwise the police had a quiet weekend, with no major accidents or other calls. Chief Lloyd Westlake noted that dog owners and bicycle riders shoud get their licenses as soon as possible: He said that he had a list of some 150 bikes that had not been licensed and the police will be starting to issue fines soon. On Tuesday, Chief Westlake along with the other municipal police chiefs in the county met in Goderich to discuss improvements on their radio system. The meeting involved the con- sideration of county wide dispatch system that would link the five municipal divisions together. The proposal is running in conjunction with a study to set up a province wide community channel. Already some 36 municipalities are equipped with this dispatch system and another nine will be added by the end of 1977. According to Chief Westlake, the only major problem with this project is the cost involved since it would require everyone to purchase new radios with this additional channel. "The big question is the financing for smaller municipalities," he said. However he added that the government may fond over 75 per cent of the overall cost if the province wide channel is approved... Chief Westlake feels that there is a definite need for such a system, whether it be county or provincial wide. He also feels that someday it will include the OPP detach- ments.

Grade two go to the woods On May 11, our grade two class wnt to Mr. Clifton's bush in Brucefield, Mrs. Baker and Mrs. Demers took us. We saw Jack" -in -the - pulpits, trilliums, dogtooth violets, and wild onions. We didn't pick Jack -in -the - 'pulpits, because there aren't too.many around. First, we saw a dogtooth violet, then we saw trilliums, and then Jack-in-the-pulpits, and wild onions, called leeks. We went all around the bush. We had to have partners. Kendra was my partner. When we came back, Kendra and I were stumbling over each other, because we were exhausted. I had fun. Some kids brought back fungi, some brought back wild onions, and they stunk. Everybody thought it was fun. We thanked Mrs. Baker and Mrs. Demers for taking us to the bush. —by Mavis Turner Our grade two class went to Mr. Clifton's hush. Wh.en we arrived we were greeted by some beautiful sweet looking common blue violets. When we got further on, we saw yellow violets, May apples, and white trilliums. We also saw painted and red trilliums, plus we saw many Jack-in-the-pulpits. We looked for things none of the others had. I picked a wild strawberry. I also picked twelve leeks.. These are also called wild onions. We almost got lost at the end. In the froom we showed everybody what we got.—by Steven Beane Parent volunteers • - This year at our school we tried something new. New for our school, that is. Seven mothers offered to come into our school and work with children who needed more help than their classroom teacher had time to give them. Each mother had a specific day to come., and. would work for an hour and a half, with a few children. (Anywhere from grade 1 to 3.) Each time they came, they would work with the same children. In this way, the, children, and the mothers soon felt com- fortable with each other. The mothers found their work rewarding, as they remarked how they could see a child's reading or math facts improving from week to week. The children enjoyed the special help they were receiving. Mrs. Scroggso worked in the library, helping Mrs:', ,garter. Mrs. Strong worled" in Mrs. Rock's grade -three. Mrs. Martin, Mrs. Moffatt, Mrs. Coleman, Mrs. Hill and Mrs. Grunewald worked in Mrs; 'Kipfer's grade one. We hope when another school year arrives, these ladies and others will come. Perhaps you would like to share this experience next year? • Grade 8 go to Ottawa On May 10th, 11th and 12th grade eight students from Huron Centennial School, journeyed to our country's do capital, Ottawa. We travelled mainly by train, which "was a first for many of the students. We stayed in the beautiful Chateau Laurier Hotel. While in Ottawa, we had a tour of the Parliament Buildings, which was enjoyed by all. Our schedule, was rushed, so we didn't, get to stay at sites as long as we wanted to. During a tour of the National Arts Centre, we had the pleasure of seeing the Shanghai Ballet of the People's Republic of China, while they began morning rehearsal. This is the Com- pany's first tour of the Western World. We spent some of our time touring three of Canada's hest museums. They were, the Museum of Man, and Natural Science, Museum' of Science and Technology, and the War Museum. During visits to these museums, students were able to look into Canada's historical past, view the history of the earth, 4 and man and also take a look at our modern technological age. • A highlight 61' our trip was a two and a half hour scenic bus tour of the city of Ottawa, where we viewed the Governor -General's home and other points of interest, For the students of Huron Centennial_, the trip was enjoyable, exciting and • educational. — by Lawrence Keys 010, • TREE SHOP Beside Clover Farm Grocery VANASTRA 482-7870 • Box -Plants • Trees • Shrubs • Fertilizer Open 9 a.m. - 9 p.m. 0 Opening this Saturday June 4 ClintorL Farmers arkct in the heart of the town, at the crossroads open 6:30 to 12 noon, every saturday 'til october sponsored by Clinton Business Association `dee you tliere. • 0
