Village plans projects for new PAIDE program
At Tuesday's regular meeting,
Lucanvillage council approved a pro-
vincid Pride Program for improve-
mentof the village. The province will
provde grants of 50 percent.
TN four year Program for
Re al, Improvement, Develop -
me and Economic Revitalization
will)' over a variety of projects.
0 of the projects are involved
wit ' construction on Butler street.
They call for installation of new
sidewalks not subsidized by the
Ministry of Transportation and Com-
munications and replacement of the
balance of watermains on that street.
- Also listed are replacement of
water mains at the north end of Main
Street and on Concession 4.
Another proposal is to purchase
land at the rear of three business pro-
perties on Main street to provide a
right'of way and off-street parking for
merchants and customers.
Included in the program is expan-
sion of the existing municipal office
to house administrative staff,
The remaining five projects are in-
_ volved at the Lucan Community Cen-
tre. They include replacing the ex-
isting change house at the swimming
pool, install skate tile stripping from
dressing rooms to the ice surface,
erect lights at the soccer fields,
asphalt the remainder of the parking
lot and purchase additional property
north of the arena to extend the park
area.
Local residents George Gatt and
Karen Urbehott attended the meeting
to get an update on council plans to
improve and eradicate the basement
flooding problems which plague a
number of subdivision properties.
Reeve Norm Steeper told the two
person delegation that council is con-
sidering a project whereby basement
drains would be disconnected from
the sanitary sewer system and sump
pumps and backwater check valves
installed.
Steeper said this type of corrective
methods have been successful in a
number of instances.
Council committees will be meeting
in the next couple of weeks to prepare
a program and policy to cover the
problem. New policy may allow for
the village to assume some of the cost
of this project. Steeper added, "I am
a firm believer that the owners should
assume some of the cost."
Council accepted with regret the
resignation of Howard McDonald as
one of the two village appointees on
the Lucan Community Centre Board.
The other position became vacant in
December when Gary Donaldson also
resigned.
Four prospective board members
were interviewed Tuesday night.
After considerable discussion, Doug
Halladay and Theresa Ondrejicka
were appointed for a one year term.

If trees could talk what they might
say or who as regards people they
might replesent. The willow,

The sycamore, ungrateful,
pessimistic, portraying a gloomy
outlook, the maple suger, sweet, not
always palatable, the poplar, the
egoist, not as popular as it or they
believes, very professionally .ex-
ecuted and enjoyable.

News from
Revival Centre
Rev. Roger Mason conducted the
Sunday morning service. Douglas and
Martha Butler ministered in singing
It's My Desire. Rev. Mason introduc-
ed Mr. Grant Jeffrey as guest
speaker. Mr. Jeffrey has been a stu-
dent of prophecy for twenty years,
and has written a book concerning
Biblical prophecy. Mr. Jeffrey men-
tioned the fact that prophecy is to be
sealed up until the time of the end.
Since man's knowledge has allowed
him to build weapons that can destroy
the world, most people have no hope
for our world.
Because many Old Testament pro-
phecies have been fulfilled to the let-
ter, we can be assured Jesus' pro-
phecies will come to pass. In Luke
24:13-32 Jesus expounded the scrip-
ture prophecies concerning Him to
two believers on the Emmaus road.
The Bible is the only Book in history
that has authenticated itself. It is the
only religious book that has prophecy
in it. It has been proven that phsycics
who try to foretell the future have
been wrong 98 percent of the time.
They de not have the Lord's guidance.
In Isaiah 46:9-10 we read no one is
like God to declare the end and the
beginning and the things that are not
seen as yet.
Sunday evening Rev. Roger Mason
led the service. Mr. Mark Kirkey
sang from Isaiah 6, I Saw the Lord.
Grant Jeffrey used slides to il-
lustrate the second coming of Christ.
This event is so important that it is the
major topic of the Bible. Jesus' se-
cond coming is looked forward to with
joy by Christians, and fear by
unbelievers. The.time of Jesus' corn,
ing is unknown.

"The King of the Jews" will be fulfil
