It bas been said that the unhappiest people are the atheists be- cause they have no one to thank for all the things they have. Most gifts we have no control over getting them. Our forefathers saw the need to set aside a day for thanking Goe. We today seldom see the need to say thank you, not only to God for His many blessings, but to our friends and neigh- bos. However, some people are thankful even when it seems they have not many material gifts and others take everything for granted as if it was due us. That is why it is necessary to set aside a/ special day to remind us of God's great gifts to us. Stop for a minute and think how much we all have to be thankful of good things that come from God. Paul tells us of the "Un- speakable Gift" a gift of great value - Jepus, the Son of God. How are we to do this? 1. by accepting it - There are no ways to thank somebody for a gift if we won't accept it. It must hurt God very much if we refuse His gift to us. We must accept the cup of redemption. 2. by showing it - We are told that Moses when he talked to God came back from the mountain with a veil around his face because it shone so much. He was very happy. There are some people who are so charged by the love of God you have to take note of it. 3. by telling it - God wants us to tell about His wonderful gift. If we do not tell about it we are hypocrites or still "Babes in Christ", or we do not appreciate the "Unspeak- able Gift". We can always find people who need to hear about the advisable treasure God gave us. No matter where we are we can always accept, appreciate and tell about it. "Pass it omi" Bethany church greeter for October is Mrs. Margaret Jarvest and ushers are Susan and Allison Jarvest. Mr. and Mrs. George Jac- kett of Peterborough and Mr. and Mrs. Barry Stewart and children of Pontypool were Thanksgiving guests of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Jordan.

Weldon's Foster Parents Club has had two collections so far and will have one every week. Weldon is supporting twelve children and their families, and have been doing so for the last nine years.

It is used for medical expenses, food expenses and other expenses. One child, who is supported, is Maria del Carmen Men- doza, born July 16, 1971. She is a Catholic who lives in Vino Tinto zone in Bolivia. Maria has two brothers and four sisters. Maria's father finished fourth grade and her mother the second grade.

Candace Unit of the U.C.W. met at the home of Margaret Mountjoy's on Tuesday, Octo- ber 10, in the morning. Mrs. Goss from the Nursing Home at Port Perry spoke to the ladies on the ins and outs of a nursing home. First she com- pared the treatment of the old years ago to the present. How, when and where should the commitment of a loved one take place and once the decision bas been made, how to react to the situation. Ladies in a nursirig home often appreciate a gift of jewelry, or reading material. The nursing homes in this area would appreciate up to date farm magazines for the male patient. The elderly should be encouraged to take part in the nursing home, social life and arts and crafts to become part of the family environment, therefore enjoying their stay. Everyone was pleased with the talk given by Mrs. Goss and many found it beneficial because their parents or in some cases they themselves are approaching the age where a nursing home may be needed. The afternoon unit of the U.C.W. was kept entertained by Flora Samells speaking on family life as seen through the camping vacation. Then the talk was turned to a discussion on the recent television pro- gram, "The Great Debate", in which a religious leader held a dispute with an atheist on the existence of God. After the program Jean Adams gave a devotional message on the Thanksgiving theme and the host, Jean Ferguson prepared a light snack.
