(News -Record photo) Christian School teachers meet On Wednesday Nov. 14, in what was described as an inspiring address, the Rev. Hellinga, Pastor of the Christian Reformed Church of Guelph, told an attentive audience that it was especially now that they must keep their faith and hold on to their ideals. The audience, ap- proximately 150 mem- bers of the Christian School P.T.A., had been treated to a dinner served by the P.T.A. Dinner Committee.- After the dinner the audience had moved from the reception rooms of the Clinton. Christian Reformed Church to the main Church hall. Here they were introduced to t1ie speaker by chair- person Mrs. Grace Hamming of Blyth. The Reverend Hellinga told his listeners that the cause for which they were fighting was not a new one. The struggle, by parents, for the right to educate their own children in a distinctively Christian environment and according to their own set of principal guidelines, was already well over a century old. He cited historical examples dating back as far. as 1846 in the Netherlands. Already then had some men been able to identify the root cause of many of the confusions, depressions and dis- orientations of the people of their time. Already then, it had- been established by some men of vision that at the root of this dis-orientation was the practical division of our lives into some areas that were and other areas that were not ruled by the Christian 'faith. ' At the very heart of many of our population's personal and collective difficulties is the concept of the possibility of neutrality. This concept suggests that in areas .of public life, for pragmatic reasons, we ought to set aside our religious dif- ferences and make all our public decisions on the basis of those beliefs (religious and other) that we have in common. The fallacy of this argument on behalf of neutrality in the areas of public life, according to the Reverend Hellinga, is that strict adherence to this concept very ef- fectively divorces a large part of life from that very faith which can give human life its only meaning. The final result of the implementation of this concept as it is done in our political system and in our public school system can be any of three: disorientation and confusion; a rejection of one's faith's validity in any part of one's life; a withdrawal into a life of personal piety (a rejection of the possible impact of the Christian faith on all areas of life especially public ones. e.g. in the areas of politics, justice for the underprivileged, food for the hungry, etc. The members of the Christian ,School P.T.A. were told that it is their task to carry on and to spread this vision of the re -integration of life as it was posited already in 1846. They were congratulated for the way that they had im- plemented this vision in their local Christian school.' The 'meeting asked a number ' of questions of the speaker and after a short business meeting, the principal, Mr. Ralph Schuurman closed the meeting in a prayer of thanksgiving for God's rich blessings to this Christian school. ecorate with indoortrees Indoor trees are ap- preciated more than ever now that fall weather has arrived. Plant en- thusiasts can grow cit•„ s trees, ficins; hi ise , aralias, palms, drenas or other exotics quite successfully with a minimum of care. "When purchasing an indoor tree, buy a small, young tree that will adapt quickly to its new land- scape, says Bob Fleming, Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and. Food horticulturist. "Try to avoid repotting a new tree from November through February when new succulent growth should be discouraged." A newly purchased tree, accustomed to greenhouse light and humidity, should not be placed in a dim corner of the house. Acclimatize the plant for about two weeks by placing it in bright filtered light and then gradually move it closer to its permanent location. It is common for a few leaves to turn yellow or drop during this transition period. Watering is important in maintaining healthy indoor trees, particularly if they are permanently located away from a 14right light sour, g•.. Ude lcikewarm watr ttAy prevent root shock. Keep the plants moderately dry by allowing the soil surface to dry out slightly between waterings. During winter months, the idea is to maintain the plant and not to en- courage , weak or soft shoots. Watering once a month may be adequate. As well, don't move trees closer to the win- dows for more light. This can be _ unwise if the windows are not tightly sealed. Drafts can easily thwart the plant's growth and cause the tree to lose leaves. "To keep large -leaved plants -free. from -.dust, wipe the leaves gently with damp cheesecloth two or three times a year," says Mr. Fleming. "Trees with finely cut foliage can be sprinkled • with lukewarm water in the bathroom shower. Shake off the water gently' and allow the leaves to dry naturally to Huronview Auxiliary The Huronview auxiliary met in the Huronview board room November 19 when Mrs. Leona Lockhart opened the meeting. She then rea41 a poem "Growing Old". The minutes of the last meeting were read by Mrs. Grace Peck, and the treasurer's report was given by Mrs. Marion Powell.. A discussion followed and it was decided after our commitments were paid to put money towards a new P.A. system.
