She was in her 87th year.

Interment was in Blyth Union Cemetery. "The Old Rugged Cross", by Adeline Campbell with Rena Watt accompanist. Grace Easom read the account of the Last Supper as recorded in the book of Matthew. Dorothy's story showed the joy a family can experience when every member is a practising Christian. It became a family's custom to invite to their home every Easter a different orphan child where he could enjoy acting in a play which the family had created about the Resurrected Christ. Dorothy's story showed, too, the power in the love for one's family and one's God. The first visit of the girl friends of the son, now grown up, to his home at Easter, erased all plans for their marriage. Viewing scenes from the family's Easter play, she openly ridiculed every aspect of it, including the Empty Tomb. He thought, up to this point, he had understood and loved this girl no longer! Melda McElroy's study on the Spirituality of Indians both old and young showed their eagerness to return to traditional values and forms of worship. Because of pollution in air, water and plant life, along with drastic weather changes, their current goal is for their Indian heritage to survive. Marj East presided for the rest of the meeting. "Happy Birthday" was sung to Charlotte Bell, Mollie Grant, Mary Howson, Ruby Philp, Evelyn Smith and Evalena Web- ster, all celebrating birthdays in March. Vera Hesselwood and Ruby Pattison served refreshments at the close of the meeting. Huron Chapel holds Missions celebration "The best missions convention yet," was the assessment of the four day Missions Celebration held March 9 - 12, 1986. Good atten- dances, that sometimes exceeded the usual Sunday morning atten- dance, seemed to validate that assessment. The personnel and the fields represented were, James Roussos, Cyprus; Phil Logan, Sierra Leone; Don Danz, Haiti; and Joan Walsh, Nigeria. A "sound and light" presenta- tion, involving a tape-recorded monologue and coloured spot- lights illuminating a large paper mache globe of the world, with illuminated shadow-boxes bearing the theme of the convention, "Workers Together World-wide" opened the service each evening. The Missions Celebration com- mittee was composed of Kim Baan, Debra Rodges, Marie Scott, Roy Burchill, and Pastor Jim Carne. BUSINESS DIRECTORY McbLLOP MUTUAL INSURANCE COMPANY 91 Main S1.
