(News-Record photo) Maitland and 16th BY MILLIE LOBS Over 400 persons attended the third Annual Galilean Ser• vice of St, James Church, Mid• dleton, held on. Sunday last at Stewart Middleton's Park. The weather was ideal and friends, relatives and neigh- bours came from all directions .to make this the largest picnic held on these grounds. Bales of straw provided by Mr. Don Middleton added a picturesque note to the rustic setting and provided extra seats for the multitude. The Rector, the Rev, George Youmatoff was in charge of the service and warmly welcomed all present. Mr. Ross Mid- dleton read the lesson, 1 Corin- thians 13,13. "The Bradley Bunch" were again present by popular request and favoured with several spirited songs, in- cluding "Amazing Grace." Flowers were placed before the altar in loving memory of a devoted member of St. James, Mr. Alfred Hudil, who passed away on Monday last. Mr. Youmatoff preached a most inspiring, sermon on the verse, "And the greatest of these is love". "Love" is a much.. better word than "Charity", stated the rector. "It means kindly understan- ding, helpfulness, forgiveness . If faith, hope and charity abide, charity is the greatest of these".He mentioned the war torn areas of the world - Cyprus, Vietnam, Ireland, etc., where there is not an• inkling of charity. "We see so many religious differences in our LOr'd's name' If our Lord were alive today would he see in us his brothers and his sisters? We must reach out. and touch each other's lives with love and thus gain strength from differences. Charity like yeast in a vat of wine, puts spirit into it. This is our task". We do not presume to know if our Rector is a soul brother in the tradition of St. Francis of Assisi, who charmed the birds off the trees, but just before he launched in to his sermon (launched is the correct word, as Mr. Youmatoff preached from a boat in the lake in the Galilean manner), well, at this point the resident woodland duck swam up near the beat with • her brood in tow, exhilarating perfect trust as well as curiosity. It called to mind the biblical verse, "Yea, the sparrow hath found her an house, even thy altars, 0 Lord of Hosts". Following this beautiful ser- vice, all repaired to the "dining" area. After the singing of the Grace, everyone sampled the bountiful smorgasbord which was placed on farm wagon tops. These were amply covered with white cloths and displayed six .gorgeous bouquets of flowers brought but kind friends, It 'made a real picture as the 400 +demolished huge quantities of lfood, In the afternoon, boating and swimming were enjoyed. Adam Flower's boat and Don Mid- dleton's kayak were pressed into service. Later, the Bradley's again favored with a fine selection of songs, which quickly drew a large crowd. CKNX had their mobile Sound Unit present at this ser- vice, which made a great im- provement on the acoustics of former services here, a wonder- ful free service of CKNX, The Rector had Mr. Kalb- feisch assist in the three draws on tickets sold by the ACW. Mr.,R.G. Hunter won the cen- tennial plate, Mrs. J. MacLaren of Clinton, the tablecloth and Mrs. Welsh of R R 3 Petrolia, the big prize quilt, The youth Club of St. James had their snack-bar caravan present. This most successful picnic had people and holidayers present from Toronto, Guelph, London, Mississauga, Picton, and Wallacetown, Halifax etc., and even from Hong Kong! Personals Mr. and Mrs, Douglas Ander- son of Brixham, Devon, England and their son, Mr. Douglas, Anderson Jr. of Toronto visited last week with Mr. and Mrs. Edward Deeves. This was a return visit as the Deeves recently returned from England where they had visited the Andersons Sr., among other 'relatives. Mr. and Mrs. John Gould of Toronto and Miss Vivian Cun- ningham of Halifax were over- night guests with Mr. and Mrs. Stewart Middleton, after atten- ding the Middleton Church an- nual outdoor service on Sun- day. Misses Janice and Rosanne Middleton returned recently from an extended Western trip. SHORT TIPS Here are some short tips for long trips, from the Ontario Safety League. Leave sooner .. . drive slower . . . live longer. Drive with the traffic and not against the clock! Speed and IMpact Speed doesn't kill, says the Ontario Safety League. Impact does. But speeding is a sure way to build up your impact. Double your speed and the im- pact, is four times greater. Last year we seemed to have people travelling to Europe but this summer it is this LAND OF OURS that is being seen. Toward the end of July, Phyllis and Robin Thompson took a very interesting trip to the North West, travelling as far north as Fairbanks, Alaska. A few days were spent sight- seeing in Whitehorse, Yukon Territory where great efforts are being made to change a pic- turesque frontier town into a modern Canadian city. Motoring by bus south from Whitehorse, they were able to observe first-hand the many washouts on the Alaska High- way where residents and tourists alike were stranded recently for as long as nine days. During their stay in Dawson Creek they toured the surrounding Peace River far- ming area. They returned to Edmonton by way of scenic Prince George and Jasper. From Edmonton they flew home. The Thompson boys are en- ding the sum-nor with some travelling too.

Tom and Katherine Ar- chibald of Kitchener visited with their families over the weekend. The Johnsons of Toronto have spent quite a bit of the summer at their home on fhe 16th. Showers A summer shower can make a posted speed limit meaningless, the Ontario Safety League points out. It can reduce traction and cut visibility. Adjust your speed to existing conditions. August Trance August is a bad month for' putting you into a trance at the wheel, says the Ontario Safety League. The hot sun, hypnotic effect. of road glare, the nudging of fatigue can all combine to form a real accident. hazard. Don't wait until some emergency wakes you up without. much time to get that brake working. Stay wide awake and alert every minute you're-behind the wheel: News of Ilensall BY JOYCE PEPPER family attended the Wright Forty members of the Wright Wright reunion companied the hymns and also played "Love lifted 'me".
