The Huron Expositor, 1961-03-09, Page 6• T1i E.'I {,TRON EXPOSITOR, SEAFORTH, ONT., MARCH 9, 1961 UNITED CHURCH REPRESENTATIVES DISCUSS TEMPERANCE POLICY Representatives f r o nl . United Church congregations in Huron Presbytery met last week in Clin- ton to discuss the report of the Commission on temperance policy nd it was presented to the 19th General Council of the Church, held in Edmonton Last September. A motion asking that General Council "make a release to the press in regard to our opposition to the liquor traffic" was approved by the Presbytery. Rev. T. G. Husser, of Wingham, in proposing the motion, stated that the gener- al public 'has been left with a dis- torted view of the church's policy. "Our church is committted to a policy of 'active resistance to the evils of the liquor traffic' and 're- sponsible concern for the wide- spread problems it creates'," said Mr. Husser, quoting from the re- port which was adopted by the FMD PANT SPATTER USE �hIX SCARFE'S AMAZING JELLED EXTERIORgQPAINT Avoid all the mess, of ordinary painting.

"We have fav- ored the establishment of national advertising codes on condition that the objective would be in line with the Bracken Commission, namely, the elimination of all liquor adver- tising and promotion," said Mr. Husser, again quoting the report. Rev. A. E. Holley, of Grand Bend, who acted as moderator of the discussion, outlined the con- tent of the report and drew atten- tion to the recommendations. "Vol- untary total abstinence is recom- mended as the wisest and safest course to follow in relation to the use of beverage alcohol," he said, also quoting from the report. "Re- cognition of a wrong within the church is not new," said Hr. Hol- ley. He pointed out that the church has always recognized faults in its membership, but he added, "there is a difference between recognition of a wrong practice and approval of that, practice." It was pointed out in the discussion that the Unit- ed Church in its Councils has not approved the. use of alcoholic bev- erages as an ideal of Christian conduct for its members and that the Church still holds to the pol- icy of voluntary total abstinence. At the same time, the recent Coun- cil did call upon the membership of the church to 'practice Chris- tian love in their attitude to all men' and 'to be informed in their opinions and tolerant toward their fellow church members who hold different views.' Attention was drawn to the section of the re- port which outlines guides to re- sponsible conduct for both 'mod- erate drinkers' and 'total abstain- ers'. The meeting, held in Wesley - Willis United Church in Clinton, also considered an interim report on "The Doctrine and Practice of Church Membership." Support was given to the proposal of the Com- mission that ideally 'it should be a requirement in infant baptism that at least one parent or spon- sor should be a member of the church. A motion to this effect was presented by Rev. William J. ten' Hoopen, of North St. United Church in Goderich. In regard to a suggested service for the "res- toration of lapsed members," it was suggested that it would be impractical with the existing pat- tern of the discipline of church membership. - DUBLIN Mr. and Mrs. Ed.

You sit in a doctor's office from two to three hours awaiting your turn for an inter- view, and if you contact a doctor who will accept appointments you are very apt to be told, "Sorry, but the doctor is booked solid for three weeks." Many other questions were rais- ed, which Mrs. Evans dealt with very graciously, although unable to answer all of them with finality until further research is complet- ed.
