Behind snow sprinkled windows full of flickering candle-glow on Sunday evening, December 7, 1986, the annual Sunday School pageant spread wide the spirit of giving and sharing, and the mystical sense of wonder and awe and innocence. A prelude of piano music by Jacqueline Vaneyk set the mood for the singing of Christmas carols. The Sunday School candle-light processional included silver-haloed and star-bearing primary children, and • students and teachers. The Christmas story was read from St. Luke's gospel verses of the song, "Do You See What I See" which was sung by the student choir, led by Jacqueline Vaneyk and accompanied by Deb Roy at the piano. Reverend McKinnell related the "Story of the Mitten Tree" afteri which a bare tree became, weighted down astonishingly quickly with gifts of warm mittens. The tree and a big. basket, full of "white gifts" seemed to signify hopes for a. blessed Christmas for all people. Lunch and fellowship followed the service. Christmas Observances The candles of Advent are being lit at Sunday School and at church. Christmas Eve Service will be held at Tyrone church at 7:30 p.m. for joint participation of Enniskillen and Tyrone congregations, welcoming everyone who would like to join us in worship and celebration.

Alcohol Plays Role in Many Snowmobile Accidents : Last winter 17 people died and 485 were injured in a total of 558 snowmobile accidents across Ontario. Alcohol was a factor in approximately half the fatal accidents according to the Ontario Provincial Police. Some snowmobilers forget just how vulnerable they are to injury both on and off the road. Unlike a car or truck, the snowmobile offers little protection in the event of a sudden stop or collision. Usually the driver and passenger are thrown off the vehicle. Off-road accidents occur ;when snow vehicles strike objects covered by snow such as rocks and tree stumps. Dips in terrain and wire fences arc deadly to snowmobilers. Recklessness and alcohol increase the danger. ■ Barely-frozen lakes and rivers are treacherous when a heavy snowfall covers them. A snowmobile that plunges through thin ice too often takes its driver and passenger with it. The OPP find the most icommon violations include: the lack of safety equipment such as lights and helmets; failure to register the snowmobile and allowing others to operate it; no insurance; driving across or •alongside highways without having an operator's license; disobeying road signs; failure to share the roadway; careless driving and impaired operation.
