Sunday morning worship, ANCanada Postes Post Canada It's been stretched for almost 3 years. We can't stretch.it any ftlrther. You don't need reminding that almost • everything costs a lot more now than it did almost 3 years.ago — the time of the last postal increase. But•, can you imagine how much operat- ing costs have risen for the postal system that serves the second largest country in the world? The cost of operating and fueling our vast transportation network, the cost of essen- tial ecjuipment and the cost of our work, force have all risen substantially. In spite of our best efforts, the combined effects of these increased operating costs have brought Canada Post to the point where it does not have the financial . resources necessary to follow through - on important steps being taken to°improve service. Some of the steps we want to take are: Introduce more extensive quality control aiming at a consistent mail service within Canada. Implement a new service -monitoring . process which will improve reliability. Expand letter carrier delivery within many communities to provide more complete service. • Increase the availability of specialized mail services soch'as Priority Post, Special Delivery and Electronic Mail. T, Taking positive action. By soon becoming a public corporation, Canada Post will have the freedom to operate as a more responsive and efficient business, and eventually stop being a sub- sidized arm of government with its resulting burden on the taxpayer. • But no business can be healthy or effi= cient if it fails to recognize and adapt to the economic realities in which it must function. And the present reality is that the existing postal rates do not reflect the costs • involved in running Canada's mail service the way it should be run. It is for this reason that Canada Post plans the implementation of new postal rates early next year. Some of these planned rates can be seen in the following table: 1st Class letter in. Canada 0-30 gm 1st Class letter to U.S.A. 0-30 gm 35$ Parcel Post same city 1 kilo 1st Class Parcel e.g. Montreal to Vancouver 1 kilo $3.35 Special Delivery $1 plus 1St Class Postage 300 $1.10 Canada Post has a national responsibility to provide the most reliable and complete mail service possible. The implementation of these new rates is necessary if revenues are to be brought more in line with operat- ing expenses... necessary to ease the burden of a deficit on the taxpayer. And most important of all, necessary 10 allow Canada Post to become, through improved service, one of the best mail systems in the world. Canada Post --setting things straight for the future. C -t closing vespers, singing, a talent show and sharing rounded out the retreat weekend. Camp Pioneer has been owned and operated since the raid -1940s by the Eastern ,District Lutheran Laymen's League of the. Lutheran Church -Missouri Synod.

The annual holiday not only gives Christians a chance to celebrate with a truly spiritual, God -honoring perspective, it also forces us to reflect on the basic mean- ing of worship itself. In fact, every gathering of Chris- tians ought in some way to be marked by the Thanksgiving -day spirit so nobly, powerfully expressed in Psalm 150. But consider for a moment two truths. The first: God made us to worship; second: most of us do not do it very well. Life has no other purpose than that we give it to God in adoration and gratitude: "And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giv- ing thanks through him to God the Father" (Col. 3:17). Or as the catechism says that the true end of man is "to glorify God and enjoy Him forever." God made man for a purpose, and that purpose is worship. However, most of us do not worship very well. We hear a lot of preaching, singing, scripture readings etc. etc. but tend to neglect lifting our hearts to God. Often our priorities are wrong. We lead a person to faith in Christ and immediately put him to working instead of worshipping. But God's in- tention is different. He wants us to learn the art of worship and after become a worker. So look at Psalm 150 and put your spiritual house in order. It tells us where, why, how and the who of worship. "Praise God in his sanc- tuary....praise him in his mighty expanse. Praise him for his mighty deeds. Praise him 'for his excellent greatness." Let everything that has breath praise the Lord." Worship is like a conversa- tion. And like. Jacob's lad- der, worship is a stairway on which we have movement in two directions: God comes to man and man goes to God. When we worship we should meet him -with our adora- tion, our' confession and our wills, even our very all. A great preacher, James S. Stewart, once wrote this phrase: "when the church rediscovers Christ." When I come to church expectantly, it does not matter if the sanc- tuary is poorly. ventilated, if the choir is flat, or if the ser- mon is hard to follow. If I have encountered the living Christ, I have worshipped. Worship is to meet Christ. That experience can happen anywhere, by any seeker or believer. Why' not at this Thanksgiving time give your heart to Christ in praise, con- fession and thanksgiving? . Audrey Barlow speaks to W.I. on Q E school The Goderich Branch of the Women's Institute held their meeting October 1 at MacKay Centre for Seniors with Mrs. Celia Taylor at the piano. President, Mrs. Mary Clairmont opened the meeting with the regular exercises. Mrs. Fred McCreight acted as secretary in Mrs. Allan McTaggart's absence. The roll call was answered by 17 members with "The profession I would liked to have followed or a school teacher remembered". The correspondence was read and dealt with. Mrs. , Celia Taylor gave a report on a historical meeting she attended in Zurich. The next meeting is to be held at Kingsbridge November4. Mrs. McCreight bought the cups and saucers and some plates that the institute had stored. - There were two birthdays this month and two visitors were introduced. Mrs. Beatrice Martindale, convener of the program portion, had as her topic, 'Education'. She gave 'a reading on secondary education and showed slides off the school children in different countries of the world that she had visited. She then introduced Mrs. Audrey Barlow„ a teacher at the Queen Elizabeth School, who told of the increase of pupils in 20 years. The school started at MacKay Hall with nine pupils and two teachers. Now there are 33 pupils from the county, and the school is operated under the Huron County Board of Education and is located in a wing of Victoria School. The pupils range in ages 6 to 21 and are divided into four , grades. They are very in- terested in sports such as swimming, bowling, and raking leaves in the fall. Mrs. Barlow left members with a lot of food for thought. The meeting closed with the singing of the Queen and, the Institute Grace. A social half hour was then spent over a cup of tea and sweet breads served by Mrs. Jack Cook and her committee. Visitors are always welcome. rdL Directory BEREA-BY-THE-WATER I rn(noxPresbyterianChurchi LUtHERAN CHURCH THE REV. G. LOCKHART ROYAL, M.A:, M. DIV. MINISTER LORNE H.
