Without light, heat and water the normal functions of the school were forced to shut down. Merry Christmas to all from the Grade 6-7 class. Along with Christmas activities, the Grade 8s have been trying to finish up a pro- blem solving unit in Math. They have also been studying early pioneer life and hope to have their assignments completed before Christmas break. Each day of the week before Christmas break, the entire student body gathered in the gym at 8:55 a.m. to sing Christmas carols. They have also been learning the true meaning of Christmas by bringing gifts to be distributed to needy families within the township. On Friday, the Salvation Army picked up the childrens gifts for distribution. The Colborne students council sponsored a Christmas dance on December 16 which was well attended. The admission price allowed the kids a bottomless cup of orange and two candy canes. Everyone had a great time.

HOLMESVILLE, NEW Blanche Deeves, 482-9536 The Enterprising Seniors will meet in the community centre in Holmesville at 2 p.m. on January 7. Why Attend Church? Often, people will say they do not attend church because they can wor- ship just as well by sitting alone and meditating about things spiritual. While it may do something for the meditator, it does very little for others. Being an example and an inspiration to others, is a large part of the value in -attending public worship services. When you go to church, you tell others that worshipping is important to you. Worshipping in a group of like-minded Christians can serve to strengthen the faith of all those around you. Jesus Christ called his followers to be witnesses. There is no greater witness than to be diligent in public worship, self-discipline and every day example of your faith.
