we must use our assets to overcome
our disadvantages," she said. "It is
the whole self that must be used."
The speaker added, "If you don't
feel good about yourself and have
faith in your ability, it shows in the
image you present to the world."
She also said that colors and ac-
cessories play important roles in
achieving the best overall image and
demonstrated the use of scarves,
jewellery and makeup to complete
the picture.
Mrs. Bridge was introduced by
Mrs. Phyllis McMichael and Mts.
Marilyn Elgie thanked her for her
cheerful and inspiring message.
Mrs. Eileen Hamilton opened the
meeting with a poem entitled
"Sometime". Mrs. Joy Wylie read
the minutes of the last meeting and
treasurer's report was given by Mrs.
Sandra Edgar. Roll call, "what
perks you up", proved interesting,
with many good ideas and thoughts.
The members were reminded of
the March 17 noon luncheon at the
community hall. Canvass volunteers
were requested for the Red Cross
and the Kidney Foundation. Thank -
you notes and program notes were
read by Mrs. Wylie and a poem,
"Take Time", read by Mrs.
Hamilton, completed the business
portion of the meeting.
Mrs. Elgie led devotions and the
singing of two hymns prepared the
ladies for the worship theme, "Vital
Signs of a Healthy Church". Six
ladies and Marilyn presented a skit,
each using a poster and scripture
verses for her part. Mrs. Cindy
Hutchinson represented the
presence of unity and harmony;
Miss Becky Elgie the absence of
favoritism, status and prejudice;
Mrs. Leone Kaster an emphasis on
individual dignity and mutual
variety; Mrs. Tracy deBoer a de -
emphasis on independence and self
efficiency and Mrs. Carol Pyke the
support of others. Mrs. McMichael
used the sign, exaltation of Christ as
Head and Supreme Authority of the
Church.
Each lady was given an orange to
examine for a special mark. They
were placed in a pile and each had to
find her own, showing that all things
have their own special marks. They
peeled the oranges and exchanged
segments, noting that each had its
own shape and identity, just like
humans. This also applies to the
Church whtch is one body but made
up of many segments.
The United Church Women are
grateful to the Howick Mutual
ilizanee Company tor hosting the
group during church renovations.
Lunch was served by Mrs. Wylie,
Mrs. Ethelene Smith and Mrs.
Mildred Coupland and a social time
completed the evening.
The reason why iFehave two ears
and only on g mouth is that we may
