Clandeboye curves. claim another life The Clandeboye curves were in the news once again when a London man lost his life in a head on crash Tues- day, at the northend of Clandeboye. The same afternoon at the south curve, Barbara Carter was making a left turn into Clandeboye when she was hit from behind by another car, causing considerable damage to the vehicles and Barbara received a nas- ty bump on her neck and a whiplash. Through the years, many accidents have taken place along this dangerous section of No. 4 Highway with several lives being lost. It is particularly dangerous when the pavement is wet. A few years ago the Clandeboye Women's Institute sent a recommen- dation to the Department of Highways asking for a passing lane at the Hodgins Street entrance to the village, but to no avail. Many from this area attended 11- derton Fair Saturday. Linda Rop- ch an received several prizes in the baking competition. Peter and Jason Hodgins par- ticipated in the 4-11 market lamb com- petition and placed fourth and seventh with their Iambs. St. James Church held their Thanksgiving service Sunday with Rev. Pocock in charge. The church was nicely decorated with fruits and vegetables and the flowers were in Memory of the late John Sinclair, of London, whose burial took place on Saturday at St. James cemetery. Gwen and Ralph Lynn were in Gravenhurst on the weekend to attend the wedding of their niece, Kanesia Tomes, eldest daughter of Doris Tomes and the late Stanley Tomes. i We'llpayyou whenyouget a Loan from us.

"What 1 do to preserve our nature, that I didn't do five years ago" was the roll call. Let's make pollution our problem so our children can enjoy the future was the motto, capably given by Marilyn Pym The Agriculture and Canadian In- dustries committee under the leader- ship of Helen Hodgert took advantage of a sunny afternoon last week and scoured both sides of Thames Road for a mile and a quarter and had the garbage collected on display. The ladies felt that they would have collected more a couple of years ago. There were feweF bottles and cans due to returnable bottles.

Sunday service Sunday morning the Sunday School children and teachers met at the church at 10 a.m. and they went to the Morrison Dam for a hike, all return- ing to the church for their closing exercise. Rev. K. Teddy Smits was in charge of the church and communion service Sunday morning. The choir rendered the anthem "The Lords My Shepherd" to the tune of the Happy Wanderer. The Scripture was read from Mat- , thew 18:21-35 by the minister. In the service which marked World Wide Communion, the minister spoke about our Christian duty to forgive. As text he had chosen St. Matthew 18:35. "That is how my Father in Heaven will treat everyone of 'you unless you forgive your brother from your heart". One of the newer developments in the field of criminal offences is to bring together the victim and the of- fenders, and try to reach a settle- ment, and where possible, a recon- ciliation, plus restitution. But we who are victims find it dif- ficult to forgive and forget. Peter asked Jesus whether the Torah was correct in stating that we must forgive a person seven times. Jesus makes an amendment to the old Torah rule. He says you must forgive your neighbour seventy times seven! He brings in a parable about the court official who was forgiven a huge' debt by the King. The court employee turns around and lays charges against a fellow worker who owed him a trivial amount. The poot man and his family are jailed. All said the Apostles Creed and the elders served communion. Sunday October 11, is Thanksgiv- ing: The church service will be at 11:15 a.m. There will be a Service of Introduction for Rev. K. Teddy Smits at Thames Road church at 8 p.m. Presbytery will be in attendance. Please attend to welcome Rev. Smits to the Thames Road Elimiille pastoral charge. Granton By MRS E.

Glena explained pollution as something we cannot avoid but we and our children must become aware of it and do our part to cut down. One gallon of gasoline emits one gram of lead as it burns and lead af- fects our minds. With air conditioning in our cars, we burn more gasoline and emit more lead. Cities built on low land surrounded by higher land suffer air inversion. When the warm polluted air of the day is forced upward by the cool air from the ground and becomes trapped below the cool air from the high land it becomes smog. We should not burn fossil fuel, keep our cars and furnaces burning clean, use car pools, walk or ride bicycles, shovel snow by hand, avoid coloured Former Stedmans manager dies A chapel service by Reverend Horst Reuger of Utterson United Church was held at Addison Funeral Home in Huntsville on September 9 for James Homer Ross who passed away September 7 at Huntsville and District Memorial Hospital.
