The water rose a little on Sunday but did not rise above the top course of the G.T.R. breakwater at the foot of Macdennott's steps. On Tuesday .the country roads were very bad in many places; the melting snow and the ram having taken the frost out of them, making them no soft that hubs would sink to the level of the road. No. 1 Company of the 33rd Regiment, Goderich, intend holding an oyster supper on Friday, February 9. Mr. T.T. Mann, travelling agent of the Mail and Empire, is in town soliciting Wed in Sydney Fred Schumann, son of Mr. and Mrs. Fred Schumann of Goderich and Zenith Elizabeth Keeping, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Keeping of North Sydney, Nova Scotia were united in marriage on Saturday, December 27 in North Sydney. The couple is living in Kingston where both are stationed with the Armed Forces. SUPERIOR MEMORIALS ESTABLISHED OVER 30 YEAR subscriptions for Canada's great paper. Z5 YEARS AGO The future , industrial prospects for Goderich and its area were described as "bright" by Hon. W.M. Nickle, Ontario Minister of Planning and Development, speaking at the Bedford Hotel here last Thursday - The new ultra modern Culbert's Bakery 'opened on Thursday of • last week. Workmen labored all night Wednesday to have the building open for business the next day as scheduled. A most impressive building, it adds considerably to the appearance of West Street as a growing business street. Goldthorpe Sand and Gravel last week, while dredging the mouth of the Maitland River here, brought to shore the win- dlass and bulge pump of a sunken schooner believed .to be the A.N. Rathborn which went down 70 years ago. The combined total of time during which Dan O'Brien and Fred Toole have been in business in Goderich is nearly e7 years. O'Brien will be 44 years in the butcher business June 12 and Toole will ben3 years in barbering August7. - . • • 5 YEARS AGO Mayor Deb Sbewfelt cast the deciding vote in . a recorded vote Monday night to change the Committee of Council meetings to regular sessions of council. The status of a proposed $2.6 million recreation complex for the town of Goderich has now become •a burden of town council following a paltry public meeting Tuesday. United Trails Inc. of Seaforth has informed town council t that in view of the importance of public passenger service, they intend to improve the regular bus line service to and fromG oderich Massive cuts in provincial government grants to local governments in 1976 have left municipal councillors, school board trustees and county councillors with the unpleasant task of operating on limited- budgets in the coming year while trying to keep the local mill rates down. You may have heard the story of a.little girl who was on a large ocean liner which . was caught in a terrific storm. One of the other -passengers noticed how cahn she • was despite the fearful storm.- She asked. "How can you be so un- concerned?" The Tittle girl replied, "Because my father is the captain of the ship." My father is hi command - this explains the trust of thin little girl. Our Father is in command - this gives the Christian reason to trust. When Jesus' disciples came to ask Him to teach them how to pray, He taught them a prayer which begins with • ,the words "Our Father, Who art in heaven." This is the prayer of a trusting child, of one who addresses the Almighty God as "Father". Jesus brought ; something new and wonderful into man's relationship with God. Because He is the only begot- ,,, ten Son of God, He could of coursepeak of God as "My- Father". MyFather.". But now, in view of what His spotless life and sacrificial death •would ac- complish, He instructs His disciples to address, God as "Father". Those who are the children of God through faith in • "I'm not leaving the church. The church left me." I don t understand my church anymore. They. talk about politics. social issdes. and world problems'. I m not agcvns4 rill this. but I re• got some real problems of my own I feel alone in a church that has moved away from me The Churches of Goderich have been trying to meet the needs for many years. But we try' never to forget the individual. Because we believe that people need n personal relationship with•God before the world can be a better place. Whynot visit us this Sunday and find out more. We're a church on the move. But we don't move away from individual needs. Sponsored by: GODERICH -A DISTRICT MINISTERIAL ASSOCIATION Grist Jesus have a genuine security for every day of this new year - for every day of their lives. The Father is in command, and He knows what Its children need. His goodness and care are boundless. Nothing is too large a need for His power or or too small for His concern. The ancient rabbis pro- hibited prayers that God's mercy should extend "even to a bird's nest"; it was disrespectful to associate God with something as small as a tiny bird. In' striking contrast ;Jesus ,says that God cares even for spar- rows, even though five could r� be bought for two tiny copper coins. God even cotmts the hairs on a person's bead. If you are a blonde, that could mean 145,000 hairs. If God numbers the hairs of your head, if not even one sparrow is forgotten, what are the - children of God challenged to do? The answer is obvious: "Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows". (Luke 12: 7 NIV) There are so many uncer- tainties • •in ,:the year 1981. When we look at cir- cumstances in our • world, there is plenty of cause for anxiety and worry. If we are a umcertaiin about how we stand with God, if Be is powerless, if Be does not care, if He is not a loving, heavenly Father, then we have reason to fear. But if by faith in Jesus Christ, God's Son, we are the children of a Father who is in then we can tit !fun.
