T -A photo Mary's musings As you read this column, I will be aboard a Wardair 747. flying into Toronto air- port. I will be concluding one week of holidays. basking in the Florida sunshine. I hope. You. on the other hand, may have spent the past week digging out of a winter storm. As I write this column, I am worried about catching that plane that's going to be taking me to that Florida sunshine. You see. I'm writing this on Monday evening of last week. (Of course, to you. it's right now Are you con- fused'' I am. Anyway. the weather reports say that we will be hit with freezing rain and large quantities of snow tomorrow. My husband and I are supposed to drive to Toronto through all that to catch our plane. I sure hope the weathermen are wrong. Assuming that we survive the winter driving, and make it to the airport on time. we will be landing in Tampa. and spending the week with my parents in Lakeland. BY MARY ALDERSON If we did get caught in a snowstorm. you have probably already heard my agonized screams. We're looking forward to seeing my parents they headed to Lakeland last November. While the rest of my family got together in Florida for Christmas, Vic- tor and I weren't able to be there. Well. next best thing to spending Christmas with your family, is spending your birhtday with them. Nly birthday was last Mon- day. Had I been home, I would have had to cover the activities of Grand Bend council that evening. Well, nobody should have to do that on a birthday, so I planned to take my vacation that week. Did anyone else get a holi- day on February 16? You should have. if the Heritage Canada group got its way. They are promoting the third Monday in February as Heritage Day. They say that since we don't celebrate the birthdays of our Fathers of Confederation. or heroes such as John A. MacDonald.

"410616w then we should set aside one day to celebrate Canada's history. That is all well and good, but I think an even better reason for having Heritage Day is the fact that there are no other long weekends in February. Apparently some businesses are already pick- ing up on the Heritage Day holiday. It was a real thrill for me to tear January off my calendar. and see my bithday printed in red ink in February. In any case. I hope you had a Happy Heritage Day. And if I made it to Florida, I'm sure I did. Anglicans At the morning service at St. Johns Anglican, Rev. G. Anderson based his sermon on "In the beginning God created the Heavens and the earth". This Sunday in the Anglican calendar year is known as creation Sunday. Rev. Anderson compared science and religion. In the past they were in conflict - today they are quite com- patible. Religion gives meaning to science. Today Jesus gives us the meaning for life in this nuclear age. He shows us how to live with our values and our morals and transforms human life with honesty, goodness and love for one another. Coffee hour hostesses following the morning service were Mrs. Hilda Smith and Mrs. Rita Martin.
