Nestleton Ladies' Aid Tea and Bazaar On Wednesday evening, May 12, a most successful tea, bazaar and bake sale, spon- sored by Nestleton Ladies' Aid was held in the Nestleton Recreation Centre. A touch of spring was added as each tea table was centred with a bud vase containing a lovely tulip.

Mrs. Grant Thompson was in charge of tickets for the twenty-five dollar hamper of groceries, Mrs. Norman John- stone presided at the penny sale and several members assisted in selling delicious pies, cakes, bread, buns, date, nut, cherry loaves, craft work and the 'green thumb" as- sortment. Miss Dorothy Bulmer, Dea- coness, as chairman (chair- lady? or chairperson?) wel- comed the Cartwright Band and introduced their leader, Mrs. Keizebrink, who teaches Grade 4 in Cartwright Public School. The group then de- NESTLETON Section1 lighted everyone with several selections. Following their numbers Miss Bulmer extend- ed a gracious welcome and officially declared the bazaar open. There was a scramble as approximately one hundred ladies and gentlemen (a few) vied with each other to obtain that tasty home-made bread, buns, etc. During the evening the group had a social time as generous servings of tea and coffee and assorted cookies were served. When most of the bazaar items had been sold the all important time arrived for the many lucky draws.

Then the Secre- tary gave an account of the receipts from the Tea, Bake Sale and Bazaar held in the Recreation Centre the prev- ious day.

As this group is a comparatively new organization in the Oshawa area, it was most interesting and informative to us. Our guests were presented with small gifts by Carol Southwell in appreciation for taking time to come and talk with us. President Bessie Vaneyk 'hen continued the meeting ith the business segment, calling on the Secretary, Phyllis Haines to read the minutes of the April meeting, and correspondence received during the month.

As long as your money is in your Plan, you don't have to pay tax on it. Put money in whenever you like. How much you put in ($50.00 or more) is up to you. Subject, of course, to your yearly limit for taxation purposes. The interest rate paid on your Plan (now 8/4%) is set in June and December and is guaranteed between those dates. You can withdraw all the money from your Plan at any time, but then you must pay tax. Home Ownership SMART Savings Plan, You can start a Plan with as little as $50.00 but only if you're 18 years of age or older, a resident of Canada for tax purposes, and you don't own a home in the year you use the deduction. Save up to $1,000 per year, for a home or home furnishings, tax-free, up to a lifetime limit of $10,000. The interest rate is set and calculated every month (now 9%). And the interest is compounded every 6 months and paid on June 30th and December 31 st. Use your Plan like a savings account. Put money in whenever you like, up to your yearly limit. Just think, once you've reached your maximum $10,000 lifetime limit the interest you'll have earned will make a tidy sum of money. And if your spouse qualifies, between you, you could double the savings and the benefits. 206 Commerce Term Deposits* Here's how they work. Currently if you invest for any period of over one year to six years the rate is 9½%. Say you put in $1,000. (You can't put in less). If you left it in for a year and a day, you'd get 9½% nterest. Interest varies according to the term of the deposit and is paid on April 30th and October 3lst. If you cash it before maturity, there is an interest penalty. It pays to be patient. CANADIAN IMPERIAL BANK OF COMMERCE owmanville, May 26, 1976 3 at the Sunday service, Miss Okaree, whom we enjoyed greatly. She is a Nigerian student in Canada under the auspices of the Presbyteriarn church. After four years in Canada she is already a Deaconess and will graduate in June-with a B.A. Miss Okarie will spend the summer months lecturing across Canada before return- ing to Nigeria, where she will train native women as lead- ers. Since the Biafran war they have had no trained personnel as Miss Bulmer was for ten years in Nigeria. So she is weil qualified, and will have much opportunity to pass along her knowledge and training to her fellow country- women. The close relationships of Nigerian families were stress- ed and interesting pictures and a sample of cloth woven by Nigerian women were passed around. A chart show- ing the many ways in which money for missions is spent was well explained. Miss Ruth Proutt read a timely poem on the duties for each day of the week. The hostess and assist- ant served the usual dainty lunch and received hearty thanks for the interesting afternoon.
