Documents, books, .ledgers and files - as important as they are for the orderly work - must be kept for people and whatever concerns their lives; not the other way around. I hope that Mr. Walls will continue to find interest, concern and dedication. to "people's services" in his new job, among politicians and everyone else connected with the public scene. • I know this is awfully simple and I apologize for sounding like lecturing. Yet I find that the simple matters cause the greatest misun- derstandings and con- troversies. Besides, Mr'. Walls will recognize that it sounds like me and ap- preciate the bit of humour in it. Sincerely, Elsa Haydon ely, ker On marriage Dear Ediotr, While admitting that the "factors" of Paul's definition love "are healthy guides", eorge Onwubere, in his article on "The myths or realities of marriage" seems to ignore the fact that marriage is a divine in- stitution brought into existence by Almighty God for the purpose of populating the earth, when he makes the statement: "Society has created marriage." Psychologists, psychiatrists, medical doctors and the like give views and counterviews on what persons can do to have a happy marriage. Newspapers and magazines regularly carry columns with advice for the lovelorn. Still dif ficulties mount and statistics on marriage and divorce show that a large percentage of persons resort either to separation or divorce because they have not found happiness. But those who have problems can take courage. The Author of marriage tells us how it is possible even in a divided world to find satisfying happiness in this divine arrangement. ` Practical application of Bible principles is vita i. Appreciating the need for God's guidance in order to follow his righteous prin- ciples, Christians will make Bible study a regular part of their lives, holding firmly to the apostle Paul's declaration that "ALL Scripture is in- spired of God and beneficial for teaching, for reproving, for setting things straight, for disciplining in 'righteousness, that the man of God may be fully com- petent, completely equipped for every good work," in- cluding successful happy marriage. (2TIM 3:16, 17) Sincerely yours, C.F. Barney Dear Editor: Late at night on Sunday, October 16, I was taken to the local hospital (I was afraid I was having a stroke) where I was kept for two days for observation and tests. I am pleased to be back in cir- culation as usual. That Monday afternoon my husband telephoned the Mayor as well as the Administrator, telling both gentlemen expressly that I was in the hospital and could not be at the Council meeting that evening. I am giving this information for the benefit of those who attended that " meeting. For years I have been extremely lucky and not missed any meetings, not because I would be given special credit for it, but in my own interest in finding uninterrupted and full par- ticipation more useful. ° English Canadians just stand It annoyed me even more to by and let people like Pepin, be absent from that par- ticular meeting, as it covered Keith Spicer, Rene Levesque a number of rather major and basic subjects on which 1 should have liked to express my views and for which I shall continue to seek in- formation. I am sure I shall come back to that later. The meeting was also the last one at which Mr. Harold Walls officiated as our Administrator. I became a member of the Town Council in the same year when Mr. Walls took up his Goderich position. For seven years we have shared, in our own ways, local municipal work. As one who parts with Mr. Walls with every good wish for his future career satisfaction and personal happiness, I feel like gently making a last attempt in reaching ,his views on "politicians", referring more particularly to his remarks on the subject in the recent article on Mr. Walls in your newspaper. Politicians are nothing but people representing other people. Council members and municipal employees alike have a task and an aim to provide a number of services to the people who pay for it in a variety of ways. and a multitude of other self- righteous nuts call us everything that is bad," he_• asked. "We English-speaking 'Canadians are not the sort of people who would believe that their own fellow Canadians would be a party to this organized national campaign of smut and smear and hatred." "The federal national unity program, he added, is the biggest con game this country has ever seen and it's time to learn what the prime minister is really trying to accomplish. "Trudeau's hatred of English Canada, and of our traditions and our heritage, is a deep and consuming hatred," the MP charged. "Trudeau is every bit as much of a separatist as Rene Levesque and the rest of the radicals and traitors who seek the destruction of the Canadian nation. The prime minister did nothing when, in 1968. Jean Jacques Bertrand changed the name of the Quebec Legislature to the National Assembly; Trudeau did .,nothing when Robert Bourassa introduced the first language legislation. Bill 22; and, Trudeau has not stopped Levesque," Mr. Alkenbrack. said. "My friends, I will say to you here that the preser- vation of Canadian Con- federation is the most im- portant issue that faces the Canadian Parliament today and the only place that this can be resolved is in parliament," Mr. Alkenbrack stated."

Fourteen members answered the roll call by naming one fruit and telling three different ways in which it can be served. The cover design on the girls' books is to be colored in and put on the record books this week. Completed record books are to be submitted to the leaders by November 21. The next meeting was set for November 2. Menus from home assignment meeting four which were to be completed for this meeting were discussed. The girls also discussed a pie crust made from scratch and from a package pastry mix. '' The time factor, the type of flour used and the types of filling used were all considered. The four ingredients of the pie; flour, salt, lard and water and the difference between using pastry and all purpose flour were also mentioned. The cans were of glass, enamel, darkened tim and darkened aluminum. Fresh fruits, fillings and prepared fruit fillings can also be used. Also alternative toppings for pies including lattice tops and streusal were discussed. • The girls then made an apple pie from scratch and also one from a mix. - by Mary Jean Betties.
