An extended hot, dry season in many parts of Ontario and Quebec have resulted in very rapid growth of some weeds like lambsquarters and ragweed. When using CLEANSWEEP we recommend the higher 0.7 Uacre rate of Basagran Forte in drier areas to achieve optimum control of weeds which may have hardened off. 1998 1997 1 662 1 0 THE CITIZEN, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 3, 1998.

Rev. sees Pentecost differently Leona McDonald greeted worshippers at Duff's United Church on May 31. With this being Pentecost Sunday the Introit that was sung was Spirit of the Living God. The junior choir sang On Pentecost Day in Jerusalem. A story version of Genesis 11: 1- 9 entitled, "Does God Have a Big Toe?" was read to the children by Rev. James Murray. He also announced that June 14 the service will begin at 11 a.m. as it is the anniversary scririce with guest speaker Gary Allan Price, who is a member of the group sponsoring John Davidson of Jesse's Journey. Rev. Murray preached his sermon on Pentecost. He told the congregation he thought he had looked at Pentecost and all the possible angles. Then one day he had lunch with a few ministers who were looking at the Pentecost text about the tower of Babel. That changed his thinking, he said. He used to believe that with Pentecost, all differences could be eliminated, and everyone would become one people by the strength of the Holy Spirit. He hoped that if all became pure and good Christians, there wouldn't be any differences among them. But after looking at the story of the Tower of Babel he learned that diversity is part of God's plan. God loves novelty and new things and it seems like diversity is part of this desire for the fullest possible expression of how human life can be lived. God wants us all to be God's children, even though we arc all going to continue to be very different people, even after we have all been touched by the Holy Spirit. We don't all have to be the same in order to be together. Our unity comes from common values, not from common behaviour. A good potluck supper, he noted, is one where everyone brings something different to the table. "It would be a disaster if we all brought the same bean casserole and apple pie. The Holy Spirit helps us to reach across the barriers of race, creed, colour or language, and to create a common bond of love and respect. The gift of the Holy Spirit is a way for us to celebrate the differences, and know that God loves us anyway, just as we are." Holy communion was served by Leona McDonald, Gloria Wilbee and her son Kevin. The senior choir sang Filled with the Spirit's Power. Walton Public School was well represented at the Seaforth regional track and field day as Greg Bowers brought home three, third-place ribbons. Adam McClure won sixth place, Mitch Blake was sixth, Steven McNichol was fourth, Katie Williamson was fourth, Andrea VanderVeen won two fifth-place ribbons and Blake Miller took home a fifth-place ribbon.

Hagedoorn, 887-6935 and M.Saxon, 887-9287 Knox Church to host salad supper, June 4 PUC reviews Hydro outage Continued from page 1 everything," said Stewart. "We want to know we can get through in an emergency." Across the region, falling trees smashed homes and cars and cut hydro to hundreds of residents. A spokesperson for Ontario Hydro said most of Huron County and south through London-Middle- sex lost power early to mid-morn- ing with most back on by late in the day. "The crews were out until 11 p.m. Sunday night and back out by first light Monday morning," he said. A few hundred residents were without power over night, but most were expected to be up and running by the end of the work day Mon- day. Residents may have noticed the power come on then go out tem- porarily, then back on. This is due to de-energizing to get more cus- tomers on lint. Some customers could be out longer if the problem is in a remote area where all-terrain vehicles are needed to reach the downed lines, he said. Grey Central Public School was also closed Monday due to a lack of hydro. Continued from page 3 Road 25 in front of Mama Root's. With this option quickly passed over by council, Howson suggested the company either build a reser- voir on the lot with the one inch pipe slowly feeding it. Pumps would provide adequate pressure. The third option would be to obtain an easement, already looked into by Howson, and run a two inch pipe from the main off Hamilton Street. Council had no objection with the Hamilton Street suggestion. Clerk-Treasurer John Stewart said he would speak with the PUC members regarding any concerns.
