The Jarmains said they lave an in- terest in architectural design and want to preserve the original state of the building for this reason. There are more than 50 em- ployees at Farmatic, a figure that fluctuates with the season. The company, besides the automatic feeders, sell grain elevators, auger systems, roller mills, and bolted buildings, something similar to pre- fabricated buildings. A total of 600 items are sold at Farmatic. The only new staff to start at the present time is Roy Conn of London, who will become the general manager, a new position at Farmatic. The couple have moved to Gorrie and presently live in an apartment, until they can find a suitable home. The Jarmains find the at- mosphere different in Gorrie than it was in London. "It's a lot less formal," said Mr. Jarmain. They said they were very well received, not only by the en• ployees but by the people of the village. Easter means hope to Christian people BELGRAVE — When the Afternoon Unit of the UCW held their Easter meeting the call to worship was a verse of scripture from Mark which read "and looking up; they see that the stone is rolled back". Mrs. Law- rence Taylor led the meeting and chose the hymn, Sweet the Moments, Rich in Blessing with Mrs. Leslie Bolt at the piano. Mrs. Taylor continued with a meditation in which she re- minded all that when Jesus was asked, which was the greatest commandment His answer was, "Thous shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind and, thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself". The religion of Jesus triumphs; with faith as its foundation, love as its power, hope as its finality. Because these things are so all grave- stones must be. rolled away. Readings were given concern- ing those who saw Jesus after His Resurrection, namely Mary Magdalene, Peter, the two dis- ciples on the road to Emmaus, and Thomas. Repeatedly Jesus appeared to His disciples, assuring them of the abiding presence and power of the Spirit. The hymn "Near the Cross" was sung. Mrs. Olive Campbell read, "The Empty Tomb", and Mrs Taylor led in prayer. Minutes were read, visits t sick and shut-ins recorded an the offering received and dent sated. Mrs. Helen Martin chose fc the mission study the work Myer Murray Goldstein, distinguished worker for hums rights in penitentiaries. Mr Fenton spoke on The Message i Good News, the good news of tt truth, of hope, of peace, of pr, mise, of immortality and saly, tion. The meeting closed wiL_ hymn "The Morning Light is Breaking" and prayer. GOOD TOYS were for sale at the hospital auxiliary rummage sale held last Thursday at the Armouries. Micah Hussey, 2, and big brother Matthew, 4, had fun with some of the toys.
