Wingham turns
tables on
CLC request
Wingham Town Council’s re
sponse to a letter from the
Canadian Labour Congress may
not have been what the CLC
wanted, but it was honest.
At the December 1 meeting,
councillors failed to pass a resolu
tion from the CLC seeking support
of a “revitalization” campaign of
Canada Post. Instead, council sent
a letter to the CLC stating that “ the
council ofthe Town of Wingham
holds the Canadian Labour Con
gress responsible for the deterior
ation of post services.” Copies of
the letter were sent to Canada Post
and to MPP Murray Cardiff.
“No way should it take 14 days
forfirstclassmailtotravel from
Toronto to Wingham,” said de
puty reeve Bill Harris in his
support of the letter.
In its letter, the CLC claims to be
proposing ‘ ‘ a practical and positive
alternative to cutbacks that recon
cile the needs of the Canadian
public and the 60,000 employees of
Canada Post. ’ ’ Canada Post should
be investing in money-making
services that would reduce the
deficit - or eliminate it altogether -
while still improving service, the
CLC suggests.
The CLC’s proposals have prov
en successful in other countries,
the letter claims, and an attached
booklet is suggested to contain “an
examination of the actual cost of
expanding services”. The booklet
also contains an outline of the
problems created by the current
direction of Canada Post and an
explanation of the position of the
union and cutbacks, deregulation,
privatization and service.

Blyth UCW
holds
meeting
The November 27 meeting ofthe
Blyth U.C.W. enjoyed better than
average attendance. Ollie Craig
and Grace Easom conducted the
worship service which fitted the
theme later discussed, “Commun
ity Friendship”. The material
revealed the fact that, from the
earliest time, friendship has centr
ed around the church and home.
The church was founded on faith,
hope and love, and a Christian
home is a sanctuary from the cares
of the world. Its attitudes, fellow
ship and relationships count far
more than its physical aspects.
Betty Nechery’s beautifully ren
dered solo, “What a Friend we
have in Jesus”, with expressive
piano accompaniment by Rena
Watt added much to the worship,
as did the singing of the hymn, “O
Come to the Church in the
Wildwood.”
Rev. Ken Bauman, guest speak
er, was introduced by Evalena
Webster, convenor of Community
Friendship. Mr. Bauman’s unique
plan for presenting his talk subject
resulted in constant exciting re
sponse from his listeners.
People want to perform friendly
acts but “Why don’t we? and
“Some Day” often never materia
lize. Just one way to help change
good intentions into friendly acts is
to mark on one’s calendar the dates
for telephone chats with shut-ins,
or visits and cards to the sick at
home or in hospital.
Secretary Adeline Campbell
read the minutes of the last
executive meeting, noting that the
next executive meeting will be at
Susan Howson's home on January
13.
President Susan Howson hand-
e out two financial statements of
the Harvest Bonanza: one, the
expense sheet; the other, the
receipts of each department for
both 1985 and 1986. The rewards
for careful planning and lots of
work were clearly evidenced.
The report from Ruby Pattison,
delegate to the Westminster week
end in August, made everyone
wish she could have been there.
Mrs. Pattison defined compassion
with the three letters of Joy: Jesus,
Others and You.
Lunch was served by Evelyn
Smith, Gene Snell and Mary
Walden. On December 15, Joanne
Bauman will host the Christmas
U.C.W. meeting at the manse.
Annual reports will be given, a
program presented, arranged by
Mary Lou Stewart and lunch
provided and served by Diane
Ferguson and her assistants.
