Norman Pick to charge. A duet was wing by Elsie Henderson and Margaret McQueen. An an- them was suing by the choir-. Flowers were placed in the chapel by Sarah Carter and Rhoda McKercher.

In the evening there was nAusic appreciation with Bruce Cookson. He also brought along a number of letters from the Grade 4 students to be distributed to the residents. The idea of this is for a resident and stu- dent to correspond with one another and establish a pen pal relationship. It is a great idea and should be a lot of fun. Elsie Henderson played piano music for Special Care residents when they met in the activity room Tuesday afternoon for games and ex- ercises. Caravan Clothes from London was here Wednes- day. Racks of garments for men and women were on display. It was a great time for residents and staff to stock up for spring, or just add to their present war- drobe.

The Goderich delegate was one of a team of clergy and laypersons who answered Listowel minister, John Anderson's expression of frustration at the February meeting of the court. Mrs. Walker, Don Kobe of Grand Bend and Rev. Anderson, in reporting for the group, outlined what they felt were shortcomings in Presbytery procedures and then went on to propose a number of solutions for consideration.

One of the key proposals was more meetings, some in the form of workshops in order that more intelligent decisions could be made with better follow up. Should Presbytery be divided? That was a question asked by the group. Are there too many issues? Should there be a more spiritual tone, more celebration and more education? Getting to know one another was suggested as another priority as well as orientation for new delegates. It was indicated that there was a large gap between Presbytery and the local congregations. As a result of the ad hoc committees' deliberations the executive was asked to review with the committees the functions of the court and report recommendations in the fall. Remit on Initiation The Presbytery took ac- tion to study the United Church's first remit since the United Church was formed in 1925. General Council has asked each pastoral charge to evaluate the document on the difficulties and in- consistencies in doctrine and practice concerning bap- tisms, confirmation and church membership. To assist congregations, a recommendation submitted by the Reverend Bruce Scott of Stratford was adopted to hold a special meeting of Presbytery in June.
