The camera I have been experimenting with around Bayfield 'might have been the subject of the photograph! It is an almost exact copy, though .I suppose it is Japanese with a name like Yashica. The Rollei is fifty years old this year, and though its day is gone, it was the world's most copied camera - more than 450 copies are reported to be in the Rollei museum. Now, no more will be made. "Pity", the columnist says. - "That was what honed Rollei photographers' technique to such fine excellence." I have never been much for gadgetry. Have never mastered the oven controls for example. One stove I used had seven adjustments to gb out and leave a roast to cook - I never tried it. I never really enjoyed using my pressure cooker - especially when I would hear tales of applesauce or soup all over the kit- chen walls and ceiling. So a 'Brownie' or later an 'Instamatic' was my idea of a good camera. Over the years,• I took some good pictures, but they were usually taken when the victims were unaware. A professional takes a long, long time to prepare for a picture. This professional's; camera has at least 20 adjustments, if you're going to take an indoor shot. Some of then/ I've never used, nor did Milvena. She insists that it is a good camera and she certainly got .some good pictures with it. My son, who has lost more cameras (or had them stolen) than he can probably remember, approved of this one - said he had often wished he had one! Note to Anna Scot- chmer - hope it goes into Raymond's museum eventually. United Church news the service at,,, St. Andrew's United Church was conducted bby the Rev. James Reddoch in the absence of the Rev. Alun Thomas who is on holiday in Wales where he is visiting relatives. The lessons were read by Len Carter and Cheryl Dunn.

God's position is shown in Verse 1: "Take heed that ye do not your alms before men, to be seen of them: otherwise ye have no reward of your Father which is in heaven." God's perspective and God's promise are revealed in verse 4: "That thine alms may be in secret: and thy Father which seeth in secret himself shall reward thee openly." Verse 8: "Be not ye therefore like unto them: for your Father knoweth what things ye have need of, before ,ye ask him," tells us of God's provision for each one of us.
