Church News still celebrating the 50th anniversary of the AOTS (As One That Serves) Men's Clubs, held a special service at King City United Novem- ber 18. More than 140 people turned out to hear the music of the Scarboro AOTS Glee Club who had been invited to lead the choral portions of the service. Under the direc- tion of a man who is burst- ing with music and bearing a very jolly look (Sidney Bag- nalll, the glee club opened the evening order of worship with “Amazing Grace". fol- lowed by “Everybody Ought to Know". Mr. Bagnall announced most of the hymns with that broad smile of his, describ- ing. for example, No. 106 (Lord of the Dance) as a “joyous number . . . where we dance down the aisle". Musical accompaniment for the service was shared by Margaret Ferguson (organist of KCU) at the organ and Ruth Butt (Glee Club) at the piano Following the prayer of intercession. the sacred bal- let “Were You There," was sung by the only female .member of the Scarboro AOTS Glee Club. Mrs. Bette Davis. The commission “Reach Out" was sung, followed by the congregational singing of the benediction hymn “Thank You Lord" to the tune of Edelweiss. Before the singing of hymn No. 84, "He’s Got the Whole World in His Hands”. Syd Bagnall told us to watch out for the change in the words as written in the new hymn book. Even so, most of us stumbled over the new line “he's got the big round world". The service was conducted by KTL member Al Smith. with Rev. Grant Brown only involved briefly for several church notices and the bene- diction. After the service, a short perfoxmance of secular songs was 'put on in the parish hall by he Glee Club. Refresh- mexi followed, as prepared by Mrs. Ross (Flo) Urry. It's only common "Cents" to attend a penny sale. espe- cially when it happens at Sacred Heart Church on Jane Street as it did November 16. For those of you who have never been to one, a penny sale is a way of purchasing anything from a package of comic books to a record player or fur stole for only one cent. Each person buys an envelope bearing one number for 25c and inside are twenty-five tokens with‘ that same number. Each ar- ticle for sale has a cup beside it and you drop one or more of your numbered tokens into it. At the close of the sale they dump each cup out and pick one of the numbers to choose a winner. Calling out the winning numbers was Mike McCor- mick assisted by his wife Carol; Jim Wigglesworth, and THE LIBERAL, Richmond Hill,lQntario, Thursday, L-T-L Men's Club. Peter Degano assisted by Hank Pynenburg. Jim gave each object a humorous des- cription, such as the spin the bottle game for which he called out “who's been miss- ing the kissing?" Approxim~ ater 300 items had been donated for sale and some of the 130 people who came took them home. Everyone had a good laugh when lucky ticket 720, which was for a diet scale and calorie chart, was not hastily claimed. A penny sale is a scene for people's facial expressions as they wait for each ticket draw, hoping theirs will be the one. Each person seemed to be a mixture of disap- pointment. anticipation and delight. On the humorous side, only four tokens were entered into the cup for a set of the "Catholic Digest" magazine. A second set with a p'ackage of jelly beans was won by Ian Gilmour. r The CWL of Sacred Heart Church were in charge of the sale under the convenorship of Mrs. Joan Marsh. Father Frederick was asked to draw the lucky numbers for sev- eral raffles, resulting in Stuart Ward winning a bas- ket of groceries; William Vandeburgt a bathmat set; and Mrs. Elin Jansen the beautifully dressed doll and bassinet set donated by the Aurora Doll Hospital. Mrs. Jansen was very happy to win and gave the doll to her granddaughter Teresa Jan- sen. I recently spent a lovely afternoon at the home of Mrs. Betty Beaton where sev- eral ladies of the United Church was very busy with their hands creating items for their Christmas Home Show to be held in the Unit- ed Church Auditorium 0111 December 7. a Friday eve- ning at 7 pm. Included will be gifts. baking, candy. books. records. a mini-auction to take place at 8 pm, and live demonstrations of quilting. rug hooking, crocheting, weaving. and stone polishing. The tea room will be the effort of the men. It prom- ises to be an interesting and helpful evening for anyone with Christmas in mind. Banns of marriage have been asked for the first time at Sacred Heart Church be- tween Daniel Seager of St. Paul's. Toronto, and Mary Catherine McGeean of Sacred Heart. The youngest members of the parish family were wel- comed into the church by baptism November 18. They were Michael David and Mary Victoria Campbell and Lisa Forgione. The Kingsman’s Show will be repeated December 2 at a concert for shut-ins at KCU. Transportation will be pro- vided. For a ride call Mrs, Rena Gordon. 833-6389 or Murdock McPhee. 833-5516. Santa Comes to Town And so he did November 17 as Newmarket and Aurora held their annual joint Santa Claus Parade on Highway 11 (Yonge Street) led by motor- cycle police and a police car similar to "Blinky" who is in the process of being named. A large contingent from the fire department roared up the street complete with sirens screaming. Scottish bands. dancing girls and clowns competed for atten- tion. As usual Boyd Transport of Newmarket supplied many of the mobile float trucks. which in turn were decorated by the various groups. Elliott Collision's two. driver single car, each driv- ing a different direction pro- vided a most unusual sight. The car is actually the front ends of two separate vehicles welded together back to back. Bell Canada had a modem float complete with a large silver rocket on it. Am- strong Real Estate showed up with three beautiful black horses pulling a fancy rig. One truck had a big cake on it with the caption “Happy Birthday, Jesus". and another rig had the Aurora Sweet Adeline's singing away mer- rily. Last, but not least came Santa in his red (and rather unexciting) sleigh, who a1- mcst lost his balance when the entourage stopped at the traffic intersection. Maybe next year someone will spon- sor Santa and give him a more authentic suit and more exciting sleigh . . . please? 1 Geman School Dance The friends and supporters of the German School of Rexdale which many children of King attend are holding a dance December 1 at the King City Community Cen- tre.

This is perhaps the favorite old English carol with a tune as old as Christmas itself and known to everyone. Words and melody are tra- ditional. Often sung in the open air like the first great Christmas carol sung in Ju- dea, this tune in particular was a favorite of strolling bands of minstrels and groups of little children, going from door to door in the streets and highways of 1old England. From that day lto today, this song has ex- ‘pressed the joys and hope of the Christmas season. Get w‘ The typical carol give: voice to the common emotion of healthy people in language that can be understood and music that can ‘be shared by all. Because it is popular it is therefore genial as well as simple; it dances because it is so Christian, echoing. St Paul’s conception of the fruits of the Spirit in its challenge to be merry. Father’s Footsteps Regional Police Chief Bruce Crawford was undoubt- edly a very proud father recently as he attended a ceremony at Dennison Ave- nue Armories and watched his son Christian graduate to the rank of Third Class Con- stable With the Metro Police Force.
