The church, which was Audit in 1887 served as a 'house or worship until 1936. It was purchased in 1938 by Walter O'Brien end used as a chopping mill. In 1950 Russel Parsons purchased the building and made it into a garage for his transport trucks. Gordon and Elaine Colquhoun undertook the demolition of the building and will be selling much of the salvaged wood. If any of our readers can offer further information about the history of the church or any experiences they can recall with services held there please call Kris Svela at the Expositor with the information. (Photo by Svela) A new year to look forward to Correspondent JOAN CRONIN 345.2772 A brand new year is before us, just waiting for us to unfold all our new ideas and great plans for the future. Every household looks for- ward to something new and exciting in the coming months. For some it may be a new baby in the house, for others it is a wedding. Some plan renovations or additions to their dwellings. yet others plan ahead for holidays south or special family gatherings or celebrations. It need not matter how depressing world affairs get, there is always something good to look for- ward to. With the holiday season over for another year, the children are all back to school and mothers and dads can get back to their old,routine. The children don't always agree that it's time to call a halt to the holidays, but all good things must'come to an end sooner or later and from mom's and dad's point of - not view, it should be sooner later. The traditional Christmas decorations that took a day or two to put up are disposed of in a couple of hours and life goes on. The New Year was brought in with hats and horns and a multitide of good wishes and kisses, --oh to be -young and foolish, but on the what fun just other hand --oh to be foolish.
