Greeters at Blyth United Church
Jan. 22 were Lois van Vliet and
Linda Wilson. Ushers were Nicole
Kerr and Brent and Lori Brooks.
Phyllis Boak, director of music was
organist. It was the second Sunday
after Epiphany with the seasonal
colour green.
Rev. Stephen Huntley, minister,
opened with Call to Worship,
Prayer of Approach, and words of
welcome. This was followed by
hymn 569, Joyful, Joyful, We Adore
Thee.
Prayer of Confession was said in
unison. Oh God, have mercy upon
us, and through Christ forgive our
sin.
Rev. Huntley called the church to
be one body with parts to make it
function. We sever that one body
through suspicion and hostility, he
said and we cannot dine around one
common table. We divide into
separate bodies and pretend to be
the church. We take from one
another what belongs to us all. By
your grace make us one into Christ.
The Old Testament Lesson was
from Nehemiah 8: 2-4, 5-6, 8-10.
The New Testament lesson read by
Debbie Hakkers was from
Corinthians 12: 12-30. The Gospel
Lesson was Luke 4: 14-21.
Rev. Huntley delivered a sermon
entitled, "The Lord of the Word".
He said, "We have both a temple
and synagogue. Hear God's words
spoken to us. We should listen with
our heart, soul and body."
Following the offering and
announcements, the hymn,
Amazing Grace was sung.
Choral Response "Go now in
Peace", concluded the service.
In local hospitals are Selena
Machan and Harold Knox in
Clinton and Molly Grant and
Harvey Sillib in Wingham. In
University Hospital, London are
Lloyd Appleby and Ruby Paulson.
The village of Blyth now has
new regulations for the control of
pit bulls.
After consultation with Animal
Control Officer Bob Trick, council
approved a motion at the Jan. 16
meeting, which would require the
dogs to be muzzled while being
walked and the licence fee was
increased to $100.
Mr. Trick says there was one
incident in December of an
unleashed pit bull crossing the
street to attack a smaller dog.
He also presented to council
some statistics which showed the
increased number of deaths caused
by the' animal in comparison to
other dogs which are sometimes
considered vicious.
The implementation of the new
regulations begins immediately.
*****
In an effort to control the board-
ing of dogs within the village,
licenses will be available for boat
ing and breeding kennels at a co.
of $50.
A set of standards for such opera-
tions were approved by council.
*****
For any actions in violation of
the animal control bylaw, the fines
were approved for increase, from
the $50 to $100 range to an upper
limit of $2,000.

Business Association, requested
support from council to meet the
cost of insurance for the group.
The business association was
informed they must have their own
liability insurance, $225 per year,
which Mrs. Irwin says would draw
much of the funds from the organi-
zation which would otherwise be
used for village promotions.
Though council supported the
work of the BBA, they said they
could not contribute to the group
until the budget was set for the
year.
Councillor Doug Scrimgeour
agreed to donate the necessary
funds, from his councillor's wage,
back to the village for the contribu-
tion to the BBA.
Of the 65 retail or service and
trade businesses in the community,
only 17 pay memberships to the
association.
