KIPPEN
St. Andrew's United Church
Had Successful Year
The 011111101 meeting of St. Andrew's
United Church was held in the Sab-
bath School room on Wednesday
evening, Jan. 30, with Rev. A. Hinton
as chairman, and T. N. Forsyth as
Secretary. An attendance of about
fifty persons was present. The reports
of the various organizations of the
church were react, each one by its
sponsor, and each one in turn was
adopted by the meeting. The follow-
ing members were appointed to the
Managing Board for three years:
Robert D. Elgie, Carl McClinchey. H.
H, Damm and Robert McGregor. The
year 1945 was rather an historic year
in the life of our Church; the con-
gregations undertaking extensive re-
novations to the manse. With this as
their objective the Women's Associa-
tion on July 4th held a strawberry
and ham supper, which netted the
sum of $141.74. Then on October 25 a
grand fowl supper and entertain-
ment was sponsored by the ladies of
both Kippen and Hillsgreen congrega-
tions. And although the price of the
geese was high, this project netted
the substantial sum of $533.13. A
•lunch booth at the auction sale of
Mr's. W. E. Butt on Oct, 31, together
with cash donations, increased the
receipts by $40.62 and 141.05 respect-
ively, malting a total of $756.54,
which• represents the amount contrib-
uted to the manse repair fund by the
ladies. The amount contributed to the
manse repair fund; in addition to the.
foregoing is $962.91 by the Kippers
congregation, and $260 by the Hills -
green congregation paid to the church
Treasurer, so that the total Manse
repairs' cost is $1,979,45, which in-
cludes the installation of a new well
and pressure System. The current ex-
penses of the church for the year
amounted to $1,998.63 the M. and M.
fund to $262; the Women's Mission-
ary Society's givings $127; the Young
People's Society, $132; and the Sab-
bath School $70.27. The total givings
of the Kippen congregation for the
year is therefore $4,309.35. At the
close of the meeting a delicious lunch
was served by the ladies, and 'a short
but interesting program was enjoyed.

spected resident of Bayfield, a for-
mer Warden of Huron County, who

THE TONGUE
"The boneless tongue so small and
weak,
Can crush and kill," declared the
Greek.
"The tongue destroys a greater
horde",
The Turk asserts. "than does the
' sword,"
The Persian proverb wisely saith,
"A lengthy tongue -an early death."
Or sometimes takes this turn instead,
"Don't let your tongue cut off your
head,"
"The tongue can speak a word whose
speed,"
Says the Chinese, "outstrips the
steed."
