to NCC highway 148 improvement No.11, 94th Year Campbell\u2019s Bay church destroyed 15t P re Saturday morning, March 12th, the Free Methodist Church in Campbell's Bay was destroyed by fire.The present church was forty-six years old.It was originally The Holiness Movement Church and merged with The Free Methodist Church in 1959.This Church, in the community, had a busy and promising future.It held the largest Sunday School in town every Sunday morning.A youth group called \"Christian Youth members of the Senior Choir are between 76 and 80 years of age but because they like to sing, they perform with the vigor of youth.Present plans call for building a new church on the property already owned by the Church.These plans include the building of a Sanctuary and a Christian Education Unit.Rev Edith Mainprize, who was on holidays, in Belleville, Ontario, returned Saturday to help the congregation make plans for continued services, while the clean up and the building are taking place.XX In Parliament, in Ottawa, on March 3rd, Tom Lefebvre asked the Hon.André Ouellet, Minister of State for Urban Affairs who is responsible for the National Capital Commission whether the government of Quebec intended to go on sharing with the NCC the cost of improvements to the national capital highway network so that users would at least be provided with adequate and modern highways.In reply, Mr Ouellet said that a letter had been sent to the Quebec intergovernmental affairs department in early January informing Quebec authorities that some $12 million were made available by the federal government for the improvement of the highway network in western Quebec.According to a federal provincial agreement the federal government is prepared to pay half the bill for upgrading the road system.Mr Ouellet further reported that he had not received any answer from the government of Quebec to his January letter.The joint federal provincial project was for an amount of $300 million and refers especially to routes 148 and A-5.t -\u2022 ¦**¦>* 4 .4 / .I km f i / / * ta V 2»' 4*3 ' 4 4 * 1 ( L9 k/ Getting in the mood for St.Patrick's Day \\ m # a / £-, > / Father

Royal Commissions are not binding on the\tfurther generating stations.PANAC's recommendation was that these two groups be replaced by two other groups called the Conservation of Energy Study Team and the Alternate Sources of Energy Study Team.The first would investigate the possibilities of reducing the energy needs of Eastern Ontario.The second group would look into the possibilities of supplying energy in the region by sources of energy more diffuse than the huge centralized thermal power plants envisaged by Ontario Hydro.The activities of the Institute of Man and Resources in Prince Edward Island could provide a model for these two groups.The Pontiac Anti Nuclear Action Committee set out last November to create an awareness in the community of the nuclear development being undertaken and planned for this Their first major project has been the sponsoring of three public meetings: one to hear from a prominent opponent of nuclea proliferation, one to hear from an eminent proponent, and the third to be an open forum for both sides and to encourage public participation.Having heard from Dr Fred Knelman, and from Mr Robertson of Atomic Energy of Canada, they are now ready to undertake the third meeting to which all are invited.

1773.At the age of 19 he entered the British Navy and served under Lord Nelson.He was present at some of the most memorable battles in which that distinguished Admiral was victor.He made a vow that if he ever survived those terrific scenes of war he would devote his life to God and helping others.After his return to his native land he inquired diligently after the truth among the different denominations of Christians.At length he found a home and rest in the Wesleyan Methodist Church in the City of Glasgow the doctrines and principles of which he cherished to his last hour.\u201cIn the year 1821 he emigrated with his family to Canada, where in common with others, he endured those privations and hardships incident to a new settlement.He was a regular visitor of the sick and sorrowing and served as a local preacher for the remainder of his lifetime.Three days before his death he was sent for to visit a bereaved family.He went but returned no more.On his way home he called at the house of a neighbour, and in the act of sitting down he in a moment expired without a struggle or a groan.\u201cHis death came on the 9th day of November 1848 at the age of 75 years and six months.\u201d f Some of the things that author Wyman MacKechnie had known about his ancestor before learning the date of his birth and death in the \u201cChristian Guardian\" were that he was a tailor in Glasgow.The MacKechnie family still cherishes some of the tools Archibald brought with him from Scotland.He also served his fellowmen in the missions and slums of his city.He married Ann Wright and after losing several children in infancy, four survived to come to Canada: John, Catherine, Nancy and Archibald.The rest of the fascinating story of this patriarch and pioneer is well told in the book \u201cWhat Men They Were!\u201d printed and published at Pontiac Printshop, Shawville, where copies are still available.Author MacKechnie, having finally determined the exact dates of the birth and death of the first Archibald MacKechnie, believes that where he lies should be marked with these dates and his name and name of his wife.He is hoping that at least one hundred of the descendants will contribute three dollars each and promises that all money received will be deposited in a trust fund until enough is on hand.The eventual placing of the memorial tombstone on the grave of this famous Pontiac pioneer should be an historic event itself in the life of this County.Smorgasbord Dinners Steele ST.PATRICK\u2019S PARTY Saturday March 19 THANK YOU DELICIOUS HOT and COLD FOODS EVERY SUNDAY
