THE BULLETIN, MOUNT JOY, PA, By Max Smith THERE seems to be some question relating to how the various corn blights will af- fect the corn crop in this part of the country in 1971. We have had some phone calls asking about other crops to be planted instead of corn. As was pointed out at a re- cent corn growers meeting here in Lancaster, corn is still a very important grain crop and farmers should not drop it so quickly when a disease problem confronts them: Not many corn grow- ers got seriously hurt last year in this area; according to crop authorities is is mnot expected that the infection will do major damage to next year’s crop, although there are some uncertainties. Grow- ers are urged to use good management practces in ord- er to have fast-growing, heal- thy plants and not overlook the important contribution of “King Corn” to our livestock & poultry feeding programs. MOST OF us are aware of the increase in the number of ponies and pleasure horses in our counties in recent years. Our horse Extension Special- ist, Jim Gallagher at Penn LEGAL NOTICES .-.

Bradley, Planning Commission dec'd., late of East Donegal Graver T. Mackinson, Township. Lancaster County, Secretary TUESDAY, DECEMBER 22, 1970 Christmas in the Churches St. Marks An unforgettable night of music will be the portion for those who attend the Christ. mas Eve Candlelighting Ser- vice at 7:15 p.m. in the sanc- tuary of St. Mark's United Methodist church. Organict, choirs, and con- gregation will share equally in the celebration of the Coming of Light of the World. The program begins with an organ recital by Gerald L. Miller, church organist. He will play ‘“Pastorale” by J. S. Bach, “Good Christian Men, Rejoice” by Wilbur Held, “Noel” (with variations) by C. L. Balbastre, and ‘Silent Night” by Samuel Barber. The choirs will proceed into the sanctuary bearing lighted tapers as Mrs. Carole Musser sings, Emig’s “Carry Candles to the Manger’. The servce that follows witnesses the lighting of the Christ candle, the four candles of Advent (hope, love, peace, joy), and individual candles by the worshippers. St. Mark’s Chancel Choir will sing “Break Forth, O Beauteous Heavenly Light” by Bach, “Lo, How a Rose E’er Bloomng” by Praetorius, “While by My Sheep” arrang- ed by Jungst, and “The Gift of Love” by Posegate. The Celestial Choir will present for the first time in public performance a composition by Mrs. Elinor Nicholas, the choir’s directress, entitled “Christmas Lullaby’. For the offertory an organ-flute duet, ‘Joseph Dear, O Joseph Mine’ will feature Miller and Miss Ann Nicholas, flautist. The entire service will be further punctuated with ap- propriate readings from the Gospels, and throughout the celebration the congregation will be called upon to voice conducted an in- teresting survey on who is the average horse owner in Pennsylvania. We note that 75% of the owners are pleas- ure horsemen, 60% are over 20 years of age (the owners) and about 60% of the owners are men or boys. Over half of the owners are in the rur- al areas of the state and over 60% of the horses are owned by people with less than $9,- 000 income per year. In addi- tion, 75% of the owners care for their own animals rather than to board them out. Pleasure horses are an impor- tant part of rural living even though “Old Dobbin” has bowed out as a major source of farm power, State, has NEWS STORIES and televis- ion programs featuring wild animals as pets for children often lead well-meaning par- ents to buy these little crea- tures for their family. Our first thought would be to leave these wild animals out in their natural surrounding where they were intended to be. They may be a source of disease or infection that would harm children; some animals may be rabid and cause rabies. It is very dif- ficult to raise wild pets in natural habitat and sooner or later they will return to Mo- ther Nature. In some cases it may not be legal to capture and keep them and only lead to trouble. We repeat by stating that wild animals will not make good gifts for the youngsters. I WOULD like to take this opportunity of wishing all our readers a Happy and Joyous Holiday Season. This is the time of the year when families should get together and enjoy each other; a time when parents should get to know their children better and spend time with them. I appreciate the opportunity of writing a few thoughts each week and trust some of them 40-2chave been worthwhile, the familiar carols of Christ- mas. At the conclusion of the service, with the sanctuary bathed in candlelight, all worshippers will join in the singing of “Silent Night” be fore returning home. The entire community is invited. First Presbyterian There wll be a Christmas Eve Candlelight service at 7:30 p.m. at the First Presby- terian church. The program will consist of carol singing, special mu- sic from the choir, and a ser- mon that will be of interest to both children and adults, entitled “How James Christ- mas Snow Got His Name.” Because Chrstmas Eve is always a very busy time, with many things to be done at home, the congregation is encouraged to attend the ser- vice dressed informally. The community is invited to attend this service and all other functions of the church. Calvary Bible Calvary Bible Church, Donegal Heights, will have a “special Christmas service,” Wednesday evening, Dec. .23, at 7:30 p. m. Special music and testimonies will be heard. . Thursday evening, Dec. 31, starting at 9 p.m., the annual Watch Night Service will be held. The film, “Beloved Ene- my”’, winner of the National Evangelical Film Foundation award as the best evangelistic fim of the year, will be shown. Pastor Ronald Gibson ex- tends an invitation for all to attend. On Deans List Three from this area were named to the Dean’s Lsit at Shippensburg State College for the fall term, it has just been announced by Dr. D. Paul Smay, vice president for academic affairs. They in- clude: Sharon L. Baley and Stephen Longenecker of East Petersburg and Harriet Ann Young of Manheim R4. CEREAL STYLES To-be-cooked cereals may be either regular or quck- cooking. Quick-cooking cer- eals have been procedded to reduce cooking to a relative- ly short time as compared with regular cereals. Over- cooking destroys nutrients & flavor. Extension food and nutrition specialists at Penn State advise checking the la- bel for method of cookery. “MANNA TREE" The tamarisk tree is asso- ciated with the manna of Biblical times. An insect punctures the bark of young twigs and a white substance oozes out. This dries and flakes fall off, so that the ground is “white with manna from heaven.” Trapdoor spiders have four lungs! : Glossbrenner Two Christmas Eve Candle- light Services will be held at Glossbrenner United Metho- dist church at 7:30 and 11:00 p.m., Dec. 24. The Junior Choir will sing at the early family service and the Senior Choir will sing at the traditional 11:00 service. Both services will include the passing of the candlelight to individuals in the congregation. The pastor will speak on the theme “The Gift of The Father: The Light of The World,” one in an Advent- Christmas series entitled “The Gifts of Christmas.” The public is invited. to at- tend either of these candle light services. Nursery care will be provided for the early service. E’town Church of Brethren A crutch . . . raisins . . . frankincense . . a watch chain . . . a drum — what ob- ject do you associate with your favorite story of Christ- mas giving? “Giving” is the theme selected for the Christ- mas Eve service to be held in the sanctuary on Thursday, Dec. 24, at 9 p.m. at the Eli- zabethtown Church of the Brethren. The service will begin with a unique dramatization inclu- ding song, instrumentation, poetry, and story which is certain to capture the spirit of Christmas giving for all ages—especially since all ages are participating. Each family is invited to share in the spirit of giving by bringing a gift of food, clothing, or blanket, wrapped in white. These “white gifts” will be presented at the man- ger following a meditation, “The Gift of Ourselves”, by Pastor Zunkel. The tradition- al candle lighting, in which all are invited to participate, will end the service. The Christmas Eve service is under the direction of Mrs. Walton Moyer, assisted by Charles Millard. Watchnight Service A New Year's Eve Watch- night Service will be held at Glossbrenner United Metho- dist church at 11 p.m. Dec. 31. The Sacrament of Holy Communion will be celebrat- ed in the last minutes of the old year. The service will be conducted in candlelight. The public is invited to attend. KEEY VEHICLE BATTERIES CHARGED It's important to keep your car or truck on the go by operating it enough to keep the battery charged, es- pecially during these cold winter months. It takes your car at least three miles of driving to recharge the aver- age battery on a cold morn- ing, says Donald R.

When in need of printing remember The Bulletin. THe Prayer of the Week The Christmas prayer this week is by William Temple: “We pray thee, O Lord, to purify our hearts that they may be worthy to become thy dwelling place. Let us never fail to find room for thee, but come and abide with us that we may abide in thee, who at this time wast born into the world for us, and dost live and reign, King of kings and Lord of lords, now and for evermore. Amen.” Patronize our Advertisers
