Stainton's Feature 0.s r'agg ti '`^' Wingham AdVanceTTimcs, Thursday, Oct. 19 1961 features from The World of Women Home and The Housewife Baptize four children at Wingham United Church. Lady bowlers in favor of national council Ann Landers the minister, Rev. C. M. Jar- dine. Four children were pre- sented for baptism; Timothy Bernard Wayne Brown, son of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne Brown; Janice Patricia Gibson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. George Gibson; Douglas lain Wesley Gilbart, son of Mr. and Mrs. Ronald Gilbart and Judith Lea Hanula, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Hanula. The junior choir sang as an anthem "I'll Be A Sunbeam" and Miss Janet Haines, daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Haines sang the solo, "How Great Thou Art" (Hine). The senior choir sang the anthem, "Hold Thou My Hand" with Mrs. Jack Kopas as soloist. The minister preached a challenging and thought-provok- ing sermon on "The Relevance of Christianity", pointing out the deep quality of spiritual in- sight and experience of the spokesmen for God, such as Ab- raham and Moses, and testify- ing to the enduring witness of Jesus Christ and His disciples in contrast to statements made by John Lennon of the Beatles, and a scholar whose statement sug- gested that the prophets and ear- ly Christian writers might have relied upon the use of ancient drugs similar to LSD as a source of their visions and prophetic utterances. A careful examina- tion of the Scriptures does not support such a conclusion, but leads one on the other hand to the conviction that the experi- ences described and expressed were valid and trustworthy. A.C.W. meeting at Sothern home FORDWICH-- Trinity Angli- can Church Women held their meeting at the home of Mrs. Bruce Sothern. Mrs. Ferguson presided and opened the meeting by reading the poem, "Bending Heads". The opening prayers and Scrip- ture from Exodus 3: 1-4, and the meditation were led by Elva Foster. Twelve members answered the roll call with a thought for Thanksgiving. Reports were given and the bulletins were read. Mrs. S. Foster read a poem, "Autumn". Mr. Jenkins contributed two essays written by teenagers. Mrs. Jacques was in charge of the study on Gossip and read a fitting poem.

Materials are to be purchas- ed for quilts and plans were made for the bazaar to be held in Trinity Church Nov. 4. Mrs. Ferguson gave the closing prayer. Lunch was served by Mrs. Sothern and Mrs. R. Sim- mons. .4111111M Ran tannion Anmembot.4....cr 1.1. pa g Dear Ann Landers: I have written you, dozens of letters and torn them all up, but I promised myself that this letter is going into the mailbox. I am a pastor's wife who is sick of the demands made on me and my family, There are approximately 500 members in my husband's congregation and approximately 500 ideas on how a pastor's family should live. My husband puts in at least 70 hours a week, yet there is never a free evening just for us, We must visit the sick, visit the bereaved, visit the couple who had a new baby, visit the old woman who fell down and broke her hip. The phone rings in the middle of the night. Mrs. Soandso's husband is an alco- holic and he hasn't been seen since 3:30 p.m. A widow is wor- ried about her teen-age son. He took the car without permission and she is sure he is dead in a ditch. A hysterical neighbor phones to say her daughter has locked herself in the bathroom and is threatening suicide. Yesterday my husband receiv- ed a letter criticizing the dress I wore Sunday. It was too short. Also, I had on too much lip rouge. I am expected to serve on all sorts of committees. It is assumed that I will pour tea and stand in the receiving line of every civic and social affair. Some nights I think my feet will fall off. When I married my husband I wanted to help him serve God, but in the 18 years he has been in the ministry I haven't seen even one life changed because of our efforts. I hope you won't think I'm mercenary, Ann, but I bitterly resent the fact that we will never own our own home and we will always have to scrimp to make ends meet. The cost of living has skyrocketed in the past 10 years but my husband's salary is the same as it was in 1958. He is a brilliant man and I know we could have lived much better if he had chosen any other profession. Please give me a word of en- couragement. I am — LOSING HEART. Dear Losing Heart: There must be some special seats at In the Cathedral of St. Cath- arine of Sienna in Allentown, Pa., which was decorated with baskets of white mums and shasta daisies, a pretty wedding ceremony was performed by the Rev. James Sweeney, when Gail Henderson, younger daugh- ter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Henderson of Wingham became the bride of John Karner, son of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Karner of Allentown. Given in marriage by her father, the bride wore a full- length A-line dress with bell sleeves, made of Swiss lace over peau de chrome with mat- ching veil and detachable cath- edral train. Her veil was held in place by a jewelled crown. She carried a cascade bouquet of white roses and gardenias. Her sister, Miss Ruth Hender- son of Toronto, was maid of honour and the bridesmaids were Miss Susan Sturdy of Galt, Miss Kathy Seglar of Toronto the right hand of the Lord re- served for pastors' wives, but some rewards must exist on earth, as well. This side of the story should be told my some- one who can speak from ex- perience. Is there a pastor's wife in the reading audience who will answer this unhappy woman, Dear Ann Landers: I am a waitress in a small cafe and I would appreciate it if you would print my letter, I'm sure there must be thousands of other waitresses all over the country who have the same problem. Day after day I hear people fight over who is going to pick up the check, (The smaller it is the more they fight). They grab the check out of one another's hands and sometimes it gets torn to pieces. They race each other to the cash register and shove one another all over the place. In the meantime, nobody leaves a tip. Please, Ann, suggest to these people that a nice way to settle the argument is for someone to say, "O.K., you pay the check and I'll leave the tip." Thanks a lot. — A GIRL WHO LIKES TO SEE SOMETHING ON THE TABLE, Dear Girl: Here's your letter and I agree your solution is a good one. So do like the girl says, folks — don't becomq so involved fighting over the check that nobody remembers to leave something on the table. * * * Confidential to Needing to Know the Truth: You KNOW the truth. The man is a terrible liar. A person who could "for- get" to mention two former marriages and five children is bound to forget he married you after a few months. Drop him, Lady. * "The Bride's Guide," Ann Landers' booklet, answers some of the most frequently asked questions about weddings.

All wore identical floor-length gowns of peppermint green chiffon over taffeta. A single green rose with matching veils served as headpieces. Each carried a cascade of yellow fall flowers. John Henderson, brother of the bride, acted as ring-bearer. The best man was Bruce Rader of Allentown and the ushers, Robert Trexler, Charles Gergits and John Cuck were all of Allentown. Following the afternoon ceremony a dinner and recep- tion were held at El Casa. Re- ceiving the guests the bride's mother wore a two-piece gold lace ensemble with matching purse and feather hat. The groom's mother assisted, wear- ing a shantung turquoise dress with matching accessories and hat. Both wore identical cor- sages of Centennial roses. On Monday afternoon a meeting of the ladies' lawn bowling clubs of FiovincialDist- rict 4 was held in Goderich. Members from Goderich, Strat- ford, Seaforth and Wingham represented their clubs. At- tending from Wingham were Mrs, Gordon MacKay, Mrs. R. H. Lloyd, Mrs. Elwell Web- ster, Mrs. Omar Haseigrove and Mrs. A. R. DuVal. Mrs. DuVal, district chair- man for the past several years, explained that the meeting was called earlier than usual to dis- cuss and report to a letter re- ceived from Mrs. Lott of Whit- by, convener of a special com- mittee inquiring into national championships. She wished to give her report at the annual meeting in Toronto on Friday. Last fall Mrs. DuVal report- ed to the members that the On- tario Provincial Association had received a letter from Australia requesting Canadians to com- pete in international events to establish world championships in lawn bowling. At the an- nual meeting in Toronto the general opinion was that Can- adian championships should be established before entering in- ternational events. Several provinces, including Ontario, now have provincial champion- ships. Mrs. Lott was appointed to convene a committee to get the opinion of the 16 Ontario districts on the formation of a national council. Men bowlers in Canada have such a council and send bowl- ers to other countries to com- pete in international events. A Centennial International event was held in Montreal this summer with bowlers from six countries competing. After thorough discussion, a motion was made to approve of paper, enclosing a long, self- addressed, unstamped envelope and 35c in coin, plus 5c for postage. All letters or requests should be addressed to Ann Landers, c/o Advance-Times; Wingham. They are forwarded from this office unopened. Be sure to enclose a long, self addressed unstamped envelope and 5 cents for postage, and the necessary coinage for the booklet request- ed. Guests were present from Wingham, Palmerston, Toronto, Galt, Kitchener, Allentown, Scranton and Philadelphia. For travelling the bride wore a two-piece wool suit with leopard trim and leopard hat to thatch. She carried a brown purse and brown shoes. Mr. Karner, a graduate accountant of Scranton Univer- sity, is with International Tele- phone and Telegraph Corpora- tion. Following a wedding trip to Florida, the young couple will make their home in Allentown.
