Bdito The week that was It seems the more help you havýe the more work there is to do and it was certainly case around the Times this past week. We have a quantity of local news that did flot make the paper and a host of pictures to match. There is always next week. Putting down a few comments on the "Week that Was" we would have to include Sylvia Parker and hier deter- mination to have a Speakers' Corner set up for one of the downtown promotions. Sylvia bas been working on this for sometime. Wbat a surprise it was, provocative at times, outrages at times, spontaneous, (just ask Helen Schmid about that) and just a lot of good fun. The fact is Sylvia is determined this will happen ona monthly basis, the first Saturday afternoon of each month -1:30 p.m. The Strawberry sociasl left little to be desired with ex- cellent strawberrys, cake and real whipped cream. All served in beautyiful Orono Town Hall with pleasing flute and quitar, background music. The hall board is certainly making an ef- fort to boîster Orono as a centre of activity., It is good to sec that the Kinettes and Kinsmen are be- ing recognized for their work in the community following a successful promotion of their annual Bike-A-Thon and Rodeo. It was an excellent event as pointed out in a letter to the editor this week. 11And you can't forget about the crowds mustered for the book sale at the Clarke Museum over the weekend. Add to this the host of kids, parents, grandparents and even great grandparents crowding int o the, gymnasium of Clarke High school for the -first public presentation by the Simone School of Dancing in Orono. It had the atmosphere of that of a com- munity picnic. And then it was the closing out of school and Kirby shone bright with their interest in George Bell's concern for the people of bis country and the making of a school quilt.: ,1The Orono kids 'took great delight in roasting their retiring vice-principle, Mr. Leith and in ail the closing week of school was one of great joy,- or it seemed to be. Walter Evans, Public Works director and his project manager, Dave Patterson of the Town of Newcastle dropped into the office searching for comments on their program in the downtown this year. We had to be positive with the program of street dlean- ing, the maintenance of trees, an d guards and the general cleanup that has been undertaken. At one time it was frustrating but not any more. Surely we have missed some events of note but it is im- portant that we leave this week, "The Week That Was" in an upbeat mood . .. which we do.

If you should need help, please do flot hestate to cal Allan. On Sunday, we were pleased to see the Church almost filled. The Service opcned with the singing of the bymn, 'Let us witb a Gladsome Heart,' following the Caîl to Wor- ship, a duet was sung by April and Cbad Switzer, this was the lovely song, 'There is Water in the River.' Rev. Ransom said this song led right in to the Baptismal Service, for without water there is no life. Keith Wood, introduced Art and Patti Lucas,_'parents of baby Ken- dall Leigh Catherine who was then Baptized. JI.t as good to se SO many of their family and friends present. The hymn, 'God sees the Little Sparrow Faîl, was sunig. The cildren's story was told by Bryan, hie asked themn how many of them had ever been afraid, what frighten- ed themn and who did tbey go to when this happened. He then asked the adults what made themn afraid, many times we aIl become afraid. When we do not have parents or any one we can turn to, when we are afraid,,we must remember that as in the. song God loves little children, God is always there for us to turn », whcn no onle is around to help us. The Psalm reading was 91:1-16. Rev. *Ransorn then read Matthew 10 verses 24-33. His sermon was titI- cd, 'Seduced, Reduced, lnduced. He told the story of a poor family living oh the prairies. The children did not wear shoes to sehool in the warm weather, they had a long walk to school. One day tbey decided to take a short cut home. They had gone quite a way when they came on a large patch of thistles that they could not go around. If they went back and started home the long way, tbey would be late and their parents would be worried, so they decided to run through the thistles. Once they were through them, they sat down and took the thistles out of their feet. Comparing the numbers each one had, then they went on home. in our life there are many patches of thistles in our paths. Brian went on to speak of the passage fromn Matthew, in the Bible one word is used, confess. In looking up the meaning as it is used, it means acknowfedge. The church seems to be trying to be ail things to all peo- pie. God is flot just good, He is all things, flot always nice, the Bible tells of the wrath of God, the judgement of God. We can flot have just the good, we must accept the harsh. We have been seduced into, believing that we no longer need to go to church, to worship God. We have become our own God. We have corne to believe that we know what is good for- us, what is best for ourselves, that's because we acknowledge that there is a God. Worship in church is flot necessary. Some believe in rincarnation. New age churches are springing Up, preaching that if things are not go- ing right in this life, that is our Kar- ma, that in the next life, things will be different. In Matthew 10 it is made clear, that there is Life, Death, and Resur- rection. Wc aIl must face the day of, Judgement, but we kpow there is forgiveness. The service ended with hymn, 'Will Your Anchor Hold?' It was nice to sec Mr. and Mrs. Sker- ratt attending worship, they are now living in Oshawa. Prayers go out to the Bruce family, whose little girl had minor surgery this week, to find out how the heart is doing, shte faces major heart surgcry in 4 mon- t hs. Also to Tom Quinty, son-mn- law of Claude Harness, who suf- fered a broken- neck, he was operated on to place a pin in his neck. We wish him a specdy recovcry. The sympathy of the congrega- tion goes out to the Wilson family, in thc loss of the life of Mellissa. In the next fcw wecks, whilc there will be no services bcing hcld in Kendal, the cburch will be undergo- ing some changes. If you can'spare a fcw hours to help move furniture out or help to, put it back, contact Jack Westlake, your hclp will be ap- preciatcd. Kendal bas been undcrgoing a lot of changes in recent months, with additions to bouses, painting and new sidings on others and the new homes in and around the village. As I look around I wondcr wbat the people who spent tbeir life here in tbc past, would think, if tbcy could corne back and sce it now. In many ways Kendal has împrovcd, but in others it has not, the sidewalks are disappearing. 1 can remember roller skating on thcm fromt one end of Mill Street to tbe other. Thé park was uscd by cveryone, now it is only available for bal games. Try and get it for a picnic on a Sunday. The school is closcd, kids spend a lot of time on buses, so there isn't the sehool spirit in Ken- dal. Kendal used to have Young People, it was very active. Thcy had pîcnics, corn roasts, in the summer. Yes the village looks attractive, but I miss thc white, pieket fences in front of the yards, the shrubs, now the yards are taken up witb cars, motorcycles and bikes. Ob, for the good old days, when life was sim- ple, but then I must remember that the gencrations horn in the last 10 years or so will be saying the same thing farther on down the Une. Tbat's life, that's progress. Philosofacts. ..The future is that tirne when you'll wisb you'd donc what you arcn't doing now. St. Saviour's Anglican Chu rch MILL STREET, ORONO, ONTARIO Rev.
