This means that a new house will be built in Hensall in the very near future and a family will be helped to purchase it. The Children's Christmas Party organized by the Kinsmen Club of Hensall turned out to be the most suc- cessful yet, with the largest turnout of children in the past few years. In 1972, the Kinsmen Club of Hensall donated a new Allis-Chalmers tractor to the Hensall arena to pull the ice resurfacer. This tractor has been retired by the arena and the Municipality of Bluewater has donated it back to the Kinsmen Club of Hensall to use as a service project. The winners of the Kinsmen Club of Hensall's Christmas cash draw are: $500 - Bill Coleman of Kippen; $300 - Earl Wagner of Exeter; $100 - Joe Debus of Zurich; $50 - Bob Lawrence of Hensall; $50 - Neil MacAllister of Hensall. At Hensall United Church Trish McGregor was the guest minister. Service began with an organ prelude, welcome and announcements and the passing of the peace. Chuck Mallette was the organist. Vern and Mona Alderdice were the greeters. Cecil Pepper was the reader. Steve and Anne Marie McGregor were the ushers. Lucielle Beer was in charge of the nursery. The service closed with commissioning, benediction and choral amen.
