Clinton News-Record, 1978-12-07, Page 10PAGE 10—CLINTON NEWS -RECORD., THURSDAY, DECEMBER 7 , 1978 Historians attend Workshop History dull? - not when Gerald Killan is in charge or Ed Phelps is talking! Dr. Kilian is chairman of the local societies committee of the Ontario Historical Society and Mr. Phelps is curator of the Regional Collection at the D B Weldon Library of the University of Western Ontario. Executive members of the Huron County and the Bayfield Historical Societies attended a workshop on Saturday, December 2 in London. Mr. Dave McClure of Crediton, Mrs. Robert Simpson of Hensall, Miss Dorothy Cox, Miss Kay Reid and Mrs. Gwen Pemberton of Bayfield were amongst 40 registrants. The morning session was held at King's College and was designed for researchers and genealogists with little or no writing ex- perience. Dr. Kilian pointed out that there is a new breed amongst researchers called LACACS which, he said, are multiplying like rabbits all over the province. (At latest count, there are over 90) Dr. Jacques Goutor spoke on organizing research data in preparation for writing and Dr. Kilian chaired a session on the problem of providing that all- important historical setting and background when writing family profiles or biographies. This is most essential and, of course, requires much patient digging. In the afternoon, a conducted tour of the D B Weldon Library - the sixth largest in Canada - was followed by a session on the value of the university reference section to the writer of local or family history. We then went to the room where the Regional History collection is housed and Ed Phelps' told us about it. He talked about the research tools and archival resources that are available there and stressed the great importance of co- operation amongst all the groups , which have collections of archives. By using the many modern copying techniques, such as photostats, microfilm and microfiche, valuable interchange can be made. There are collections in many places - museums, historical societies, churches, public libraries, voluntary organizations, townships large companies as well as the provincial, national and university archives. These should be preserved and shared before it is too late. Trinity Church events The Chancel Guild met at the home of Flo Youmatoff with the president Lillian Higgins in the chair. There were seven members present to plan for Christmas decorations. A work party will convene on Monday December 11 at 10 am at the Youmatoff's home. On Saturday, December 16 at 2 pm Christmas decorations and flowers will be at the church to. be arranged. A delicious lunch was served by the hostess. Margaret Larson read the Lesson at the 10 am service, Matthew 24: 1-28. On Sunday mornings in the Advent season, we 'read the two chapters .in:; -S-t. Matthew's gospel - which describe Christ's return in Judgement. In the passage read by Mrs. Larson, our Lord foretells, in the same breath, both the fall of Jerusalem and his own return at the Last Day. Young people followed the Rector into the Church during the opening hymn and proceeded to the rear of the Church where the White Gifts had been placed. A brief prayer was offered for the gifts. Then the young people came to the front of the Church, sat on the floor (and the Rector too) as he explained the meaning of the Advent wreath. The first candle, the candle of Promise, was lit by Colleen Cluff. The young people then left the church to continue making their own Advent wreaths and to practise Christmas songs led by Lillian Higgins. A pastoral letter from the Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada was read by the Rector dealing with the recent Lambeth Conference, where 410 Bishops from all over the world gathered to con- sider the unity of the Church and its capacity Lions leader runs for deputy governor President of the Bayfield Lions Club Pat Graham will be running for district deputy governor for this area's Lions Club zone. Graham made the announcement last week at a zone meeting sponsored by the Zurich Lions Club. The meeting was one of only three to be held each year. Present Lions district deputy governor George Teather of Thatneliford had announced previously his intentions of running for' zone governor. to cope with the dif- ficulties confronting it. The Anglican Com- munion is the second largest world body with only the Roman Branch of the Christian Church being larger. The ex- perience of the fact that the Church is multi- cultural and international in character was demonstrated. The Bishops noted the diversity of doctrine and practice within the unity of the Faith was the essence bf Anglicanism. Round the village "Sparky" of the Village fire department advises 'Pick a nice green Christmas tree. Cut about an inch off the stump and keep it in water. It will help if you add a little sugar to the water.' Mr. and Mrs. Bill Latimer visited with his grandmother Mrs. G L .1 night on Sunday. They --were dinner by Mr. and Mrs. Gilbert Latimer, all from Weston. At the ABC session in the Municipal Building on Wednesday Dawna Westlake got the high bridge score, Gwen Pemberton the low, and Ethel Knight won the lucky draw.

Mrs. Arnold Makins and her daughter Brenda Miskip of Goderich and granddaughter Brooke, visited with her other daughter Bonnie in London for two days last week. Mrs. Lloyd Westlake was a guest for a week with her cousins Mr. and Mrs. Louis Burnell in Guelph. Weekend guests with the Lloyd Westlakes were Rick and Judy from London, Catherine from Kitchener and Paul Pringle from Toronto. Baptist news by Janet Talbot Due . to the icy road conditions the congregation at the Bayfield Baptist Church was smaller than normal but the services were held as usual, with the Pastor, Rev. Les Shiel continuing in the study of Family Life, using Exodus, chapter 2, verses 1-10. The Mother of Moses was a woman of faith, she realized her baby was no ordinary child and trusted God to care for him. Only God could arrange such a sequence of events to raise up a leader to lead His people out of the bondage of the Egyptians. Miss Elva Keys played the piano in the absence of Mrs. Muriel Snider, and Miss Shirley Keys played the organ.

(News -Record photo) Theatregoers visit London Theatre London members from Bayfield (there are about a score of them) were fortunate to have excellent driving conditions for their first visit to London of the '78- '79 season last Thursday. It was a double treat as we arrived early enough to wander about the new lobby, lounges, rest rooms and stairways. The comfortable new red plush seats with plenty of leg room were a most pleasant change, and no water was dripping down on my seat like the last time I was there! Where it came from, in the old theatre I'll never know, but I even had a letter of apology from the management, had an umbrella over my knees and thought there was a bad rainstorm. The stars were shining and the streets dry when we emerged. Was it the ghost of Ambrose Small weeping for his old theatre? Orlo Miller thinks it may be lurking there,' • What a thrill it was to study the grand old proscenium arch, cleaned up to look like new, as we waited for the Bishop eisits churches Rt. Rev. Morse C.

Was there ever a finer production of Cole Porter's "Kiss me Kate", or a funnier skit than those two gunmen singing "Brush up your Shakespeare? 'I'd like to see it again' and 'It was worth our whole season's tickets' were comments I heard as we left,the theatre. M W Bourdeau the Dedication and the Rev. Alun Thomas the Benediction.
