Village Squire, 1977-05, Page 33PEOPLE After 70 years in the Ministry, Rev. Ure Stewart of Seaforth can say "I have hope for the church." Looking/at the many changes in the church over the many years since he was ordained on April 30, 1907 the Saltford native is cheered by the ecumenical movement which sees greater understanding between the various relig- ions. The popular minister was honoured on the anniversary of his entering the ministry by his now home church of Northside United in Seaforth. He retired from the active ministry in 1951. Sometimes teachers can get exasperated with the textbooks they have to teach from but Stratford Central' s • vice-principal John Miller has two texts he shouldn't be upset ith: he co-authored them. The books, Gaining Power and Exercising Power, deal with the political system in Canada. Miller and his co-author Donald Hurst were history teachers in the same school in Hamilton when the idea for the books came up. They felt there was a need to show the "problems and the human aspects of politics." So far 20,000 copies of the books have been printed and will most likely be used by students in the grade 8 to 10 area. Students from Newfoundland to British Columbia and perhaps even Stratford may use the books. The reaction from students is encourag- ing." Miller says. "They say the books are Spec40.6"t6 gitacid fun to read. I think they are fairly genuine in their responses." Some people speak about being worn out by hard work but not Annie Phillips of Stratford. And Mrs. Phillips should know. She celebrated her 101st birthday in Stratford on April 29 with a party which included such guests as Mayor Keith Culliton. "She was always doing something, whether it was helping neighbours or doing the chores around home or lighting the stove early in the morning," he son Bill said. She's possessed with a memory that is as good, if not better than, ever, and says her son, has never been sick, although she no longer has complete use of her legs. *** While some people put money where their mouth is, Adrian Keet of the Wingham area put his feet where his convictions were last month. Mr. Keet, who is a strong supporter of the Right to Life movement decided to let his feet do the talking as he set off on foot for Ottawa to join the Festival of Life on May 5-7. In the age of conservation that's really saving nonrenewable resources....that is if feet are renewable.
