Baptismcelebrated
at Knox United Church
BELGRAVE — A very
large congregation wit-
nessed the sacrament of
baptism celebrated at Knox
United Church on Sunday.
Rev. John G. Roberts con-
ducted the service. Mrs.
George Procter, organist,
presided for the prelude and
service.
The minister chose
scripture readings from
Romans and Corinthians
related to baptism. He stated
that baptism is a practice
celebrated since the
beginning of the church.
Baptism is never a private
thing. Baptism is always
joining the church. As a
Christian you must stand up
for your principles, but not to
the extent of destroying
another's faith. Each is a
part of Christ's people.
Following the message,
the order of baptism as
presented in the Service
Book was used to receive the
infants: Cole Albert, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Grant Vincent;
Candace Lenore, daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. Cameron
Procter; Travis John, son of
Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth
Hopper; Kenneth John, son
of Mr. and Mrs. John Mc-
Cracken; Elissa Lindsay
Rose, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Calvin Nixon and Paul
Douglas, son of Mr. and Mrs.
Douglas Walker into the
church.
The large choir of mixed
voices sang a baptism hymn
with organ accompaniment.
sang songs and inspected the patients' costumes.

Well the Hallowe'en spirit
has slowly faded away and
I'm sure all the candy will gO
or has gone just as fast. I
think it's also safe to say that'
all the trees are bare and the
days and nights are colder
than in October.
The drama club had two
excellent presentations last
Tuesday: "The Littlest
Witch" and "Hagshead". All
the little people in our school
enjoyed these two plays.
While we're on the topic of
Hallowe'en, the great
pumpkin (Clyde) had 483
seeds inside of -him. All the
pupils guessed different
numbers ranging from six to
2,000 andthen placed their
guesses in a box. After the
seeds were counted, it was
discovered that Michelle
MacDonald hit it on the nose.
Michelle gets a new book as
her prize.
Once again our school
nurses are coming around
with that yucky pink stuff on
little white cardboard'
pieces. Each year the nurses
come and offer free flouride
brushings from the health
unit. I'm sure all the
students are very thankful
for this benefit, but when it
comes to brushing, everyone
wants to change their minds.
—Ria Linardatos
The Kindergartens have
been very busy working on
Hallowe'en activities. Some
of their crafts can be seen
down at the Bank of Com-
merce. Last Wednesday
there were no children, but
there were a lot of scary
little witches, ghosts and
goblins. The children of the
afternoon class wore their
costumes and shared their
party with the residents at
the Brookhaven nursing
home.

Mrs. Szarek's Grade 4
class had a safe and happy
Hallowe'en, getting lots of
candy.
The pupils helped to put on
a scary Hallowe'en play.
They read spooky stories and
poems, which they wrote
themselves. They had a lot of
special Hallowe'en treats
that many parents helped to
make.
—John MacDonald
The Hallowe'en party was
a great success for Mrs.
Martin's Grade 3s. Parent
helpers were the audience
for the program and helped
serve the snacks. The
parents were very original in
the food and the
preparations. All the kids
read their stories or poems
and they sang three short
songs. They all were par-
ticipants in some way,
whether in costume or with
the program.
—Kira Stuckey
Last Wednesday, Hallo-
we'en Day, Mrs. Schedler's

tume from room to room.

Everyone enjoyed bobbing
for apples and playing
games during the
Hallowe'en party in Miss
Buist's room. The children

cookies. The class had the
school's computer for a
while too.

Anorexic

4-H girls
The much talked about
disease, anorexia nervosa,
will be the topic for the two 4 -
homemaking Achieve-
ment Days in Huron County.
Cathy Thompson, nutri-
tionist with the Huron Health
Unit, said Marilyn Chedu of
Brantford, an anorexia ner-

Ms'. Thompson describes
Ms. Chedu as a "powerful
speaker".
While the nutritionist says
there are no statistics, there
are definitely cases of
anorexia nervosa in Huron
County.
"It's not a nutritional dis-
order, it's an emotional dis-
order that's very serious,"
said Ms. Thompson.
The nutritionist said vic-
tims, mostly teenage girls,
have a fear of being fat and
carry dieting to extremes.
