Time passes
quickly
As pollution
grows
Little drops of water ...
little grains of sand ...
There are two dangerous
fallacies which practically all of
us share. The first is that small
amounts of pollution really
don't matter or hurt much of
anybody or anything. The
second fallacy grows naturally
out of the first.
It is that my small amounts
of pollution — the emissions
from my car; my pesticide
spraying, my trash burning —
really don't do any harm to the
environment. What we forget, of
'course, is that there are so many
millions of us, that each little bit
of pollution adds up to a
smothering pile.

Ruthless waster ...
Civilized man Ilea been more
ruthlessly wasteful hi his
attitude toward the 'natural
world than has served his
Material interests.
The practical Utility of land,
Water and forest hes been
dirninished seriously by Our
deterMiriatiori to alloW them to
serve no purposes but our own.
This exploitation led Maurice
Maeterlinck, the Belgian
dratnatitt and 'writer, to say:
"Everything seems to foretell
that man, the last comer to this
earth, will be the first to leave
it".

Auburn
One hundred and ten years of
Auburn Presbyterianism witness
came to an end December 27,
1970 when the closing service at
Knox Presbyterian Church was
held with John Turner of
Clinton and the University of
Waterloo, in charge of the
service,
Mrs. Donald Haines, the
organist presided at the organ.
Mr. Turner chose for his text
Church of the Real or Museum
of the Trivial, and based his
remarks on Hebrews 12.
During the service, Mrs.
Eleanor Bradnock sang a solo.
She had been a member of the
choir when the church was
opened. Also in the congregation
was Miss Lila Youngblut who
had been organist for the
opening service in 1928.
Rev. G. L. Royal of
Goderich, inter-moderator, on
behalf of the Presbytery of
Stratford-Huron, thanked Mr.
Turner for his excellent services
to the Charge and outlined the
steps taken by the Auburn
congregation to close the
church.
Invitations to join with the
Auburn Baptist Church and the
Knox United Church were also
read.
After the service, the ladies
served a cup of tea.
Representatives from Knox
Presbyterian Church, Goderich,
the Session and the Board of
Managers were also present.
Former members were present
from London, Seaforth,
Kitchener, Atwood, and the
surrounding community.
The first Presbyterian Church
was opened in Auburn, then
called Manchester, on May 1859
when a petition from
Manchester to the Presbytery Of
London for the election and
ordination of elders was taken
up.
The Presbytery appointed
Messers. Ross and McDonald,
ministers and Robert H.
Carnahan, elder to form a
Session at Manchester. This
Sessice met at Brucefield on
May 17, 1859. Only two of the
four elected showed their
willingness to accept the offices
for Joseph Dobie and John
Jackson were ordained on June
8th, 1960, as the first elders of
the Manchester congregation.
In October 1861, Charles
Rodgers was added to the
Session.
The first communion roll a
Knox Church contained
fourteen names; Joseph Dobie,
John Jackson, John Brown,
John Scott, Charles Rodger, Mrs,
Charles Rodger, Peter Patterson,
Mrs, Peter Patterson, John
McCullock, Charles McDonald,
Alexander Scrimgeour,
McKibben, Mrs. William
McKinnon and Mrs. Charles
McDonald.
Presbyterian
During the first two years,
1860-1861, the membership
increased to 61. At the 60th
anniversary in 1920, only one of
those members was still living,
Mrs. Francis Stalker who
attended on that occasion.
Previous to 1925 on June 10
at Knox, Auburn, a
congregational vote was taken
on the question of Union
between the Presbyterian, the
Methodist and Congregational
churches, which split the Church
in two parts — those going into
the Union and those voting to
carry on Presbyterianism — the
majority voted for union.
The continuing Presbyterian
Church members held services in
the Auburn Baptist Church until
early in 1928 when the former
Methodist Church ,was
purchased. After being raised
