the Good News was that if I
figured out what their God-
who-sets-people-on-fire wanted,
he could be pacified. But, who
could really love such a God?
Now, the whole point of this
is to dissociate the traditional
concept of "God's judgement"
from the Biblical judgement.
You see, the judgement of
God upon the world is curren-
tly celebrated under the name
of '"Christmas", Man looks
upon his desperate state and
cries for "salvation". And, God
sends a baby.
The eternal judgement on
man will be the way he treats
the call to Love, If he rejects
that Love, he lives in hate. If he
responds to that Love, he lives
under obligation. If he ignores
that Love, he lives in
loneliness. If he kills that Love,
he lives in guilt. If he defies
that Love, he lives in a "gar-
bage dump" (the word Jesus
used was Gehenna, or garbage
dump, NOT "Hell" as it is
usually translated.)
If you have not found the
fulfillment of the promises of
God, find out how you've been

The teachers of the Huron-
Perth Roman Catholic
Separate School System have
been recently involved.. in a
series of workshops in both
Huron and Perth Counties.
During January, clinics were
conducted in Stratford and
Exeter to refresh teachers in
basketball, volleyball and
wrestling skills. A series of
gymnastic worshops began at
the end on January at St.
James School in Seaforth.
Teachers are able to discuss the
philosophy in the value of gym-
nastics in their program and
also they can take an active
participation in not only the
teaching of these skills but
share in a practical in-
volvement in these workshops.
Mr. Brian Annable from St.
Clements Separate School at
St. Clements, conducted the
first two clinics, the one at
Seaforth and the second on
Wednesday night, February 7,;
at St. Boniface Scbopt, in,
'Zurich. Teachers from' Eketer;
Clinton, Seaforth, Zurich and
from Usborne Central attended
this practical refresher course.
Gymnastics should be a vital
activity in physical fitness
training. Besides building up
strength and power, gymnastics
also contributes to other factors
of physical fitness such as
agility, flexibility, co-ordination
and balance. Gymnastics has
special meaning as a sport. The
The Board of Trustees of the
P.H.R.S.N. met at Alexandra
Marine and General Hospital,
Uoderich, where discussion
took place on the Transition of
the School of Nursing to the
Community College System. In
the absence of the chairman Dr,
R.A. Rowe, Mr. H. Bosnell of
Goderich presided.
Miss M. Philpott, principal,
reported that a delegation from
the Stratford School and area
Hospitals attended the
Regional meeting in Kitchener
to discuss the transition of the
school. A Task Force will be
formed to lay the ground rules
for this new system. Dr. Rowe,
Mr. Bosnell, Miss Philpott and
one instructor were named to
this committee from the Strat-
ford area. The Task Force will
be comprised of delegates from
the six nursing schools of Kit-
chener, Galt, Guelph, and
Stratford.
After completion of
arrangements for transfer a
Nursing Education Advisory
Groundhog day has come
and gone. In some spots he
saw his shadow but in this
locality no sun broke through
the clouds. Perhaps that is
what the weather is going to be
like--sub-zero weather in one
spot for a day or two and then
mild and sunny for awhile,
One thing is certain, we have
appreciated the sunny days so
far this year,
One can usually judge when
a storm or very cold weather is
coming. before that sudden
and unexpected drop to below
zero temperatures on January
31st, Lucy watched the activity
of the birds, There were dozens
flitting about from shrubs to
the feeding station and back
again, 'One would land on the
bit of snow on the roof and
scatter it, and away would go
the whole flock, only to go back
in a few minutes.
That day Mr. and Mrs.
Bluejay sat out there for quite
awhile. Evidently other birds
had cleaned up the cut corn
which Carl mixes with sun-
flower seed. It is always left to
the last. If Bluejay gets a sun-
flower seed, he holds it awk-
wardly between the claws of
one foot on the windvane and
picks the kernel out. While he
is doing that the black capped
chickadees dart in and out of
'the portholes in a regular shut-
tle service to the shrubs. They
are very adept at disposing of
the sunflower seed cover. One
flick against a branch and
they've recovered the kernel.
Lucy delights in watching
them.
On that particular day
there was a male evening
grosbeak in the station perhaps
attracted by the dish of fine
gravel. He may have been a
scout, but if so, he didn't bring
any of his friends back as on
various occasions this winter.
While there, he was boss of the
station. He put the male car-
dinals and sparrows out but
was quite courteous to the
female cardinals.
There are four lady cardinals
and three males making
regular calls at "The Hut"
feeding station. And while the
male Cardinal's colour is in-
creasing in brightness, ap-
proaching the maing season, he
still is not polite to the females.
I They, poor things, must sit ,on,,
,ocithe, i ground ,,un,dtirneeqe f tke iii
,station along with juncos and
sparrows and glean what falls
from, their lord and master's
table. Then, when the males
are satisfied the females and
other smaller birds fly up to the
station.
Cardinals like to feed late. •
and early so often Carl does
not put out the feed until
daylight is fading. Perhaps
there won't be a bird in sight.
But he whistles and it isn't
long before a cardinal or two,
sparrows and black capped
chickadees come.
One night recently, Carl went
down to close the driveshed
door. He could hardly see a
male cardinal in the station but
could make out a female sitting
patiently on a rose cane below.
While he was watching the
male flew off, evidently
satisfied and his lady flew up to
get her share of what was left,
The downie woodpecker
comes to the suet feeder. He is
a friendly little chap, but there
aren't so many around as there
were a few years ago. Lucy
used to sit outside and they'd
talk to her while feeding.
The white breasted and red
breasted nuthatches and the
black capped chickadees visit
the suet feeder as well as the
grain feeding station.
Several weeks ago the car-
dinals didn't come near us for
several days. Others men-
tioned that they hadn't seen
them .either, Carl concluded
that perhaps they had been
frightened by a hawk and were
in hiding. He had seen a hawk
one day on the road to Clinton
but .couldn't identify, to which
branch of the hawk family it
belonged.
It won't he long now before
we'll be looking for the first
robin, Of course there are
always a few hardy birds who
hide out in the swamp or are
born during the winter and
come out on a sunny day, but
they don't sing until spring is
really here, Only six more
weeks and a few of the hardiest
will be out.
The squirrels like the sun-
flower seeds, too, but they don't
rob the birds to any degree as
the latter will gang up nad
chase them—particularly the
robins, if the squirrels are
looking for such treats as birds
eggs.
Carl announced one day that
there were five black squiirels
out on the lawn. Clarabelle's
three dark grey children were
there , also a skinny black and
a big black. The big black one
was chasing the others and
scrambled up to the rooftop
when Carl appeared. He could
have been Clarabelle's mate.
One of Clarabelle's children
is inclined to be friendly with
Carl and he has named it
Skippy. One day recently,
Clarabelle was over in the
chestnut tree on the road. He
called her and she jumped to
the pine trees, down onto the
lawn, and across the lawn
followed by Skippy who stayed
in the lilac tree, peeking around
at Carl about a foot away, like
a shy child. He had no peanuts
with him or he'd have offered
Skppy one while Clarabelle was
up in the maple tree storing her
cookie and peanut. Lucy
doesn't think much of them
bringing their friends and
relatives.
Carl has „just announced that

dense fog which recalls the
saying, "A winter 's fog will
freeze a dog."
During the first warm spell
last month pansies were picked
by Mrs. Nelson Heard and on
Saturday past. (February 3)
Mrs. Charles Bell who was
visiting at "The Hut" found a
pansy in Lucy's garden.)

emphasis is placed on co-
ordination and skill. Students
whose capabilities and size may
not fit them for contact sports
can find in gymnastics a
satisfaction of competition and
the thrill of accomplishment in
a skillful physical activity.
Children from the Huron-
Perth Counties will be invited
later to demonstrate these
acquired skills at various tour-
naments to be held later in the
R.C.S.S. System.
At Zurich_ St. Boniface

of body skills and as many
more with an imaginative ap-
proach.

teachers ample 'opportunity to
personally practise these skills
and to share with fellow
teachers ideas to further the
Physical Education Program in
their respective Schools.
Committee will be formed out
of this Task Force. This Ad-
visory Committee will develop
and reassess cirriculum, ensure
the programs will meet Provin-
cial standards,
All personnel employed full
time at the time of transfer will
be given the opportunity of ap-
pointment to staff. No appoint-
ments will be given at less than
existing salaries. Part time em-
ployees will be given preferen-
tial consideration.
Administration to be used in
the College setting will be
made known very early.
