the faithful and the brave ven-

ments, and following a bount-
iful repast the president, Mrs.

with Mrs. Bill Fuss at the piano
and a humorous reading "Just

her 80th birthday.
The annual report booklets
were distributed and reviewed,
which told the story of the
church's work for 1969. Vern
Alderdice expressed the senti-
ments of the congregation when
he paid tribute to the retiring
church treasurer, Mrs. Peter
McNaughton, for her very dil-
igent and efficient work in re-
gard to the church finances dur-
ing the past several years. She
was presented with a gift by
the stewardship committee
which met at the rise of the
annual meeting.
Harvey keys will succeed Mrs.
McNaughton as church treasurer.
Edison Forrest was elected to
another three year term as clerk
of the congregation. In his ab-
sence, Jack Drysdale was ap-
pointed secretary for the even-
ing's business. The chairman of
the stewardship committee,
Grant McGregor, presented the
budget of $17, 000 for 1970,
which was accepted, as well as
the nominating committee re-
port.

ship committee are Jack Drys-
dale, Bill Fuss, and Ron Wareing,
