CLINTON - St. Paul's Annual Vestry
Meeting was held in the Parish Hall on
January 26 following the morning service.
Included in his sermon, the Reverend Mr.
Gordon Simmons discussed some .of the lit-
tle known facts in the history of church
meetings, and the origin oflpluirch officers.
The earliest reference to si Iesmen is found
the book of Exodus in the Old Testament.
Up until the beginning of the 19th century,
an official "beetle" was appointed in most
churches. Throughout the service the "bee-
tle" was on the alert for napping worship-
pers. If he saw a chin resting suspiciously
relaxed on a chest, he reached out with a
long rod, startling the nodding head with a
smart rap. (Originally, a "beetle" was a
tool with a heavy head used for ramming or
crushing... the church "beetle" inflicted
less pain on the offender).
A dog catcher was also on duty in chur—
ches long ago when wild dogs ran in packs
through towns, taking delight in dashing
through open chl..ch doors.
Prior to the 19th century, church wardens
were armed with a stout wand, or staff to
keep order in the congregation. They stood
at the entrance to the main aisle to keep an
eye on the mood of the worshippers. Loud
gossiping was common in church, and free -
for -alis frequently broke out. At this point,
the wardens stepped in with their wands.
Wardens also had to remind men to wear
their hats in church. Ladies attended ser-
vices bare -headed.
Following a congregational luncheon in
the Parish Hall, the annual St. Paul's Vestry
meeting was called to order by the Rev.
Simmons. June Boussey, Vestry Clerk read
the minutes of the last Vestry meeting,
followed by the reading of 'the Rector's
report, and discussions regarding forthcom-
ing commitments, and plans of the various
organizations.
Officers appointed were: Mrs. Boussey,
Vestry Clerk; Rector's Warden, Bill Ket-
tlewell; People's Warden, Bob Campbell;
Chairman of Property Committee and
Church Restoration, Murray Taylor, with
advisor Ken McNairn; Chairman of
Sidesmen, Bill Counter; Organist, Laurel
Lavis; Chairman of Anglicans in Mission
Laurie Slade; Chairman of B.A.C., Douglas
Morgan; President of ACW Margaret
Counter; Lay Delegates, Noel Flagg and

Management: June Boussey, Bill Ket-
tlewell, Bob Campbell, Jane Radley, Allen
Peel, Jack Reid, Bill Counter, Mary Mur-
phy, Don Elwood, Bruce Bartliff, Douglas
Morgan, Grant Morgan and Catherine Con-
nolly. Church Treasurer.. Freda Slade;
Envelope Secretary Jean Herman, assisted
by Ellen Morgan; Treasurer of Altar Guild,
Calista McNairn; Treasurer of Friendship
Guild, Ellen Morgan; Treasurer of Restora-
tion Fund, Jean Herman; church caretaker,
Henry to Brenk.
Silent prayers were offered in loving
memory of the late Mrs. A. Leyburn,
Mildred Dawe, and Mary Hawkins.
It was announced that the parish of St.
Paul's Anglican Church, Nanairno, British
Columbia will be celebrating its 150th an-
niversary this year. An invitation has been
extended to members of St. Paul's, Clinton
who will be visiting the west this year, to at-
tend their special services.
The congregation of St. Paul's is remind-
ed that beginning on February 2 the morn-
ing service will be held at 10 a.m.

Did you know that a person with only Canadian dividend in-
come can earn up to $40,000 and pay no tax? .
The Bolton Tremblay Income Fund is an excellent investment for those who require a steady
flow of tax advantaged income.
The Fund concentrates on after-tax return mainly through investment in dividend producing
shares.
The dividend tax credit makes $1 of dividends equivalent to a much higher amount of interest
income. The amount depends on the province of residence and the taxable income bracket.
(for example, an individual with $30,000 of taxable income in Manitoba must earn $1.54 in
interest to match the after -age benefit of $1,00 in dividends.)
Sold under prospectus. Available through Bolton Tremblay or authorized dealers.
