the different things that Christ and
Christmas remind us to make room for,
humility, the unknown, lowly and
commonplace.

P
great things have a way ; of
happening silently, quietly,
inconspicuously. It is easy to recognize
greatness, appreciate it, make room for it,
after it becomes great, but it takes a great
person to recognize and make room for
greatness when it is unknown, obscure, and
without a name." he said.
The congregation was reminded that
next Sunday will be the Christmas Sunday
Service and that the Christmas Eve Service
will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Christmas Eve.

Attend to car
Winter driving is slower and often
frustrating. Be prepared to give more atten-
tion to your car, your equipment, your driv-
ing.. Try to be patient if you are delayed
when a vehicle ahead stalls or is stuck on a
slight grade because of worn tires. The On-
tario Safety League also reminds you that
pedestrians face the same weather condi-
tions. The going is rough for them, too.
Unfortunately, In -the -Home Hazards Increase during the Festive Season.
In seconds, a festive tree may become a torch, and in minutes a house may be destroyed!
HERE'S A GREAT
LAST-MINUTE
Here's advice from the Joint Fire Prevention Publicity Committee
of Canada:
* Your evergreen Christmas tree and Its decorations are potential
fire hazards. They head the list of a sensible family's preparations
for a happy holiday.
Your tree should be fresh. A dry tree readily sheds Its needles.
Keep your tree outdoors until you are ready to decorate. Indoors,
keep the tree standing In water, after cutting off at least an inch
from the butt. Replenish the water daily.
* Your, electric lighting strings shouldedheckedsets. for fanoon-fam ad sble
or
short circuits. Buy only CSA app
decorations. Disconnect the lights when leaving home or going to
bed. Candles, of ,course, constitute added hazards.
* Keep matches out of the reach of little hands.
* Clear wrappings away from the base of the tree as soon as the gifts
are opened.
* Set the tree away from the fireplace. Do not block access to exits.
* Have plenty of large ash trays for the guests who smoke.
" Never leave small children alone or unattended In the home.
' Cookstove fires from oils or grease are an emergency. Smother the
flames...a rug...baking soda...never water. If this doesn't do the
job, get everybody out and call the Fire Department.
