It would seem that we are all a little ashamed of ourselves for our outburst of friendship and charity and now we must really pull ouroelves together and say "enough of this nonsense". Travel up to Town on the 24th December and again on the 30th December. It is like two different worlds. Amidst this rather bleak atmosphere we fRce a new year and are expected to welcome it with good intentions, Not easy, I wonder not so much that resolutions are soon broken but that resolutions are made at all, We should now look at ourselves and say "this is not me at all, I'm really that rather happy, generous person who was here last week". If it is not true, lie a little, until you are convinced, Our resolutions should not consist of mundane trifles like giving-up smoking or cutting-down on the carbohydrates, Let us resolve to carry some of that Christmas spirit with us throughout the year, The joy of Christmas is es much in the giving as in the receiving. Let us make 1969 a time to give, A time to give love and goodwill to all men, A Happy New Year to us all, SERVICES IN THE PARISH .Q!iQfil3H OF ST. JAivIES.

Because the earth's orbit·round ·the sun is elliptical rather than circular, the earth does not rotl'!te l'!t a steady speed with respect to the sun. The 24 hours in which the earth is ooranonly believed to rotate, is only the ave·rage tiue o.f rotation, sonetines it is .fnster, and at others slower. Thus while the sun is overhead at niddey on 􀛏ecenber 24th, it is 8 ninutes early by the clock on leoenber 10th, and 4 ninutes late on January 2nd. ln e.ffect during this period, the clock is going iorward by hal.f ll uinute a day; so delaying b0th Eunrise and s1mset.

The Puritans are supposed to have coined the phrase 'The Whole Process of the Christ,' and to add to this, we nay quote the saying of Pascal, 'Christ has been in agony frora the foundation of the world.

Ilorney Connon (CL 56 ) and Lake End Co=on (CL 57 ) were provisionally registered by Bucks C.o unty Council in February 1968 being given the Ssrial Nos. shown in brackets. Foroal objjootions to these registrations can be nade in the lst obj ection pe riod fron 1st ,)ctober 1968 to 30th Setpenbe r 1$70. Applications to register the ownership of these Co=ons and· co=on rights over then were all su bru.tted before 30th June 1968, e. g., during the let free period. Owing to pressure of work Bucks County Council were unabl e to DRke th0 provisionRl registrations until 13th August, 1968, which delay has the eff\,ct of postponing the Daking of obj ections thereto until the period lst May 1970 to 30th .April 197 2. Becau se the Co=ons Conni ssioners will not begin hearings in disputed cases for sone years, there is 11 possibility thPt· evidence based on personal recollections could be lost. This dif ficulty can be r:iet by individuals naking a Statutory 􀛘eclaration before a C o=issioner of Oaths or a J.?. which can later on be produced to the Connons Co=i ssioners. ?er haps I should say that 1;b th 0 best of ny knowledge and. belief the registrption of the land and its ownership and of the nur.1b 0r of cannon rights is correct. The Provisionpl Registration docUr:J.ent for connon rights can be seen at Qua rterI?an'sG Sr ege nnq. in it I_ hav􀛝 detected only two typlllg slips and inaccurac i es in description in two cases . I hope that these nay be put right. The total nunber of co=on rights being registered by 30 Connoners is :- cows 198, horses 77 , sheep 1, 680, hogs 396 , geese 30 and ganders 30. Such large nur;ibers have over the centu ries brought both probleos and benefits and are the reason for our Connittee of 1'!anageoent and idanor Courts to see that justice is done between oan and rarm. The Registration of co=on rights with the County Council duplicates the records wh ich have always been oaintained here and wi ll, of course, be so oaintained in future. It is we locals who have. to do the practical day to day work and we need such inforraa tion here. Howeve r, the Registration of co=on rights with the County Council is not oerely an acaderaic exercise. It will provid􀛞 Co=o ners with a sound title when resorting to the Courts. or preparing property docuoents, It should oean ooney to all Connoners - not nerely user-Connoners - if there should ever be any interference adversely affecting their rights, · As a corollary, it is proper now to challenge the legality of access ways which pass over the pasture , Finally, whereas by a process of adj ustraent we have up to now agreed to re!Rin the ancient totals of connon rights but in respect of a reduced acreage of land with rights appurtenant, it does seeo likely that Iteg istration may nean that when in future any relevant land ceases to be agricultural the rights appurtenant to that acreage will be exting uished, Naturally the user-Co=oners wish to iop rove the pasture so that it can carry the largest practicable head of stock of all pemitted kinds. Considerable progress has already been oade and I hope that it will be accepted that this oust continue even though it does cr,use sooe inconvenience to fron·tagers and to pedestrians using the Co=ons for air and exercis .. , • So far only cattle have benefited, but it should not be thought that, because sheep have not been at pasture for 50 years, they will never reap1 ear. This could happen gui te soon and will nem everyone having to adjust themselves to their presence, JJ lf.ti.NEY 11 Oi\JJEN , s :ms T ITU TE • ?, D, S . ?. The rieeting was held in thE.

The ?arish Supper was held on 􀛚ednesday , 27th Noveo? er, in the Village Hall utterly transforned froo its nornal rather austere self into a candlelit, welconing setting for a 􀛛ro rming board.

At the end , after introduction by the Vicar , our Guest of Honour, the Reverend Ben Lewers, Chaplain of London Airport, :rose to give us an addr ess of rare quality. In response to mme rou.s requests froo those who heard it, a synopsis of his talk is printed below: 1 This is not a tioe for soft words, in view of the econoilic situation and the critical si tur.ition tha.t two thirds of the worl(i' s population finds itself in. We look at R pitter, torn , divided world, rmd in it the need for reconciliation is pprru:iount - between nPn and nan, and betvieen God and oan. To ef fect this, this is one crganisation specifically designed for the job. The Chu rch , Ourselves; and what you are doing in renewing your Stewards hip is reequipping yours elves - the Cl urch - for this task. Stewa rdship·rests upon two pr inciples : 1) God uadi, us, and everytling Vie po ssess , and so we are tenants ar. l ought to pey the rent. 2) God gave us his oost precious possession, his only Son / and we are to give what we prize raost. This applies to prgroiisntion, just e.s it does to individuals. • Now the tine is critical, but it also presents a vast opportunity. We wu st give the world a strong church, dedicated to this job of reconciliation. A church fu ll of people who will love and worship the Lord, and carry this out in practice, by that vital bifocRl action. So let the Eucharist lead to caring for the world 's hungry Rnd ho􀛙el.ess ; let it lead to breaking down the clRss barriers, to an unde rstand ing of law , and its difficulties of adllinistraticn. Let it le ad to developnent in union/nanagenent relations. .These are just a few of the places of encounter to which God is calling us, and for which, in this caupaign, you are re-equipping you rselv es. We have been given ou ch in England . Not only goods and services, gifts like tol eranc e, conpreh ens io n and hUr:J.our. As you share, r:ioney, • t'il:le and talents, share these as well, in the spheres above and nany nore. Then we shall be co-operators indeed with God. Vii th all ny heart I wish you God speed in -th e.vital task to which you have set your hands .' As befits soneone with su ch a challenging appointnent, Mr. Lewers put the challenge of stewardship squar ely before us. The next raove is up to us : by the tirae these words ap pear, our visitors will have conple ted their task. Early in January we hope to announce in Chu rch how the Campaign has gone and a brief report will appear in the February issue of the Jorney Parish News. In conclusion I nust add that as frou the 31st :Jecenber, I shall be resigning the office of Caupaign /lirector, after seven years I in the saddle •. The new . Director will be Mr. A. E. (Tony) Cottar:i, who wi ll be assisted by Mr. MicLael Wilkinson. I ask you to give then both your unqualifie d support in their daunting task and I thE nk you all most profoundly for all the help you have always given ne. 11 th :Jee. 1968. The Editor. :Jear Sir, T. W. E. Roche. Syring a, Harcourt lloa<4 :Dorney Reach. I have read Mr. :Oorrell 1 s spirited attack on the Thanes Valley Bus Co. , in tht Windsor Elcpress, over their threat tJ ren ove the No. 22 􀛖us Service, ·with some unease. Jf our route is losing noney, our barg aining power is not great, Snd I believe that an ap proach which shows that We appreciate their difficulty would be nore e.ppropriate. Because we should appreciate the problen. Iii th nore cars coming on the road every day, it is clear that bus conpanies face r steady reduction in their nunber of custo mers. They oust also coapete for staff in a :i:rosperous oarkat. It is hardly surprising that they have . difficulty in recruiting, and having done so, are reluctant to discharge those whos6 service fails to reach the s ta:ndard they wculd desire. It ou st be acc ep ted, that as an ever incr eas ing proportion of people becoue owners of c1crs . so the nunber trav elling by public transport will . :i , .: J'.'ease, The in evitable deterioration in such services will reduce th e nobility of those left without cars , Md strengthen their deterui nation to get on e; thu s acc elerating the trend. There is, of cours e, only one answer, a truly swin ging tax on cars, deliberately to restrict their nuubers, with the proceeds subsidising public transport, This is what should be done, in our own interest, but in an age which accepts the noise of sup ersonic aircraft, becaus e it does not know how to stop it, I have little hop e that such a. n infringeuent on our liberty to uake our enviro=ent even nore horrible, would be seriously entertained, Therefor e we are fac ed with the certainty that progr essively fewer people will use the bu ses. It is against thi s background that we must view the Bus Company's dileu0 . We have virtually a ,, o=on problera. They obviously want to run a bus service and uake it pay, and we need the bu ses . To start with there are certain peak hour oonnuter and school services, wh ich should continu e to be well patronis ed. There is a good cas e for their retention . But wha t about tho se intervening services, wh en the bus raor e often tha n not arrives and departs erapty from Harcourt Road ? Th es e are the problems . ?erhaps those waiting have accepted a lift; but this is poor consol ation for the Bus Co. Although they are littl e used, it is th eir availability that is so valuable; for how otherwis e would those without cars, shop, go to the cin eraa, or hospital, or vi sit friends ? We night ultimately accept a solution wh ich already app li es to oany country districts, wh ere off peak servic es Wun on certain days -0nly : often for uarkets. Of the two alternatives, would it be better to have a reasonable service on on e or two day s, rath er than a cons istant one offering very few or even no buses at all , ou tside peak hours ? In this way shopping, cinenas, the atres, etc., would still be availabl:e, but tc a pattern dictated .by the bus service. I realise that my rEDarks will be condeLJI1ed as defeatist by nany, who would favo ur a stron ger line. But half the skill in l'fnY foru of negotiation is to seek a solution which would also satisfy you if you were in the other fellow• s sho es . 1m:y fonn of abuse· is worse than useless; it erects a barrier to reasoned discussion. In short, the Bus Conpany has a probleo so far AS ::Jorney is concerned, Let us realise this, and help them help us. 11i\lLiUCE IT 11/IUIDER. 11 Y􀛕urs faithfully, M, ?.

Pastor Theodor Flie:lner was then the head of the Institution. He was a man cf vision and had seen the need to uake use of la dies of leisure who w :re willing and ready to help the poor and the sick. He had estab lished a hospitai chi efly as a scho ? l .for traini􀎂 the Deaconesses , and all kinds of sick were rec eived. Here was the beginning of uodern nursing and skilled parish work. On her return to England after her first brief visit to Kaiserswerth, Floren.)_e :Nightingale was uore discontented with her Lillless, unsatisfactory life than ever and was deternined to return to Kaiserswerth for training. Rventtwlly it was possible. Her sister was ordered to Karlsbad for a cure and Florence insisted on accompanying her so ai:i to take advantage of going to Kaiserswerth' not as a guest this time but 􀎃s a probationer. ' On July 6th, 1851, she entered the Deaconess Institution and was discharg ed on October 7th of the sane year. She was then 32 years of age . It is nost interesting to visit the Deaconess Institution, particularly ?astor Fliedner1 s roon, which is still exactly as it was in the days of Florence Nie;htingale. There is an excellent • snall collection of her le tters in Gernan and French. I found a letter she wrote to Mrs . Fliedner fron Scutari particularly interesting. She wrote, "I have not a nonent.

Pray for us . ....-1e have at the nonent five thousand sick and wounded. 1'/Jy only comfort is, God s ees, God knows it, God loves ue . Renenber ue to ny Sisters , Yours ever. " • • . When Flor􀕉nce Nightingale was leaving Ka iserswerth in 1851 and asked Pastor Fliedner for his blessing lit tle did he or she re alise the gigantic task to which she wa s to be called. He left an indelible-' ir:J.p ression on her and when he died in 1864 she wrote, "Fo:r- r:1e it is as though I had lost a father. 11 He h"ld ind·eed been her guide, father and friend. For both alike one thing r:i attered - to live for others and in so doing to glorify the naoe of the Lord. Dore en Fletche.£!. THE WEATHER OF J ANUlllff. The long range forecast of a cold and snowy January, proved totally but acceptably incorrect. There were, in fact only five deys when the thermoue ter fell below freezing point, the 1st, 5th, 7th, 9th and 17th ; and towards the end of the uonth iii becaue rela tively warn , with teoperatures of 530F on the 22nd, 23rd and 25th. After a fair start, with ouch sunshine on the 2nd, the ba ror:1e ter fell, and froo the 5th • rer:1ained below 30 11, until the 19th: which represented an unusually long gpell of unsettled weather. Fron the 13th to the 16th, the ba r'oue ter was below 29 11 ; which is even oo r·e unusual, for very low readings are nomally associated with rapid barome tric changes , and gale force winds. But the mid-European high was still close at hand, and one e again the depression failed to oake i:rnch headway, just drifting air:J.lessly over the country, trying -to find a way out, instead of whistling ove r the North Sea to Norway. Not surprisingly rainfall was above average, 3,17 11 for the l'lonth. With the excep tion of the 19 th, it raine d every day froo the 11th to the 24th. There were, scattered throughout th􀔿 oonth, six quite sunny days; an{_ although it was fairly windy on the 18th and· 19th, there were no gales, nor was there any fog. NATUIIB NOTES. ·whilst out walking the other oorning I carae across the footprints of a badgE,r, and this led oe to investigate tp.e set en-trance. Great activity had taken place since r:ry last visit, soil and old bedding was piled up in a great oound by the opening. Throughout the year there is always sooe activity of this sort, but this pile could only oean one thing. The sow nust have been oaking the final preparations in the naternity wing for the soon expected offspring. Badger cubs are noroally borr.. any tiue froo the end of February to the end of April. J?airing occurs at sone tine between May e.nd August and this would seen to give a particularly long period of developoent (gestation) fo-:r-' the unborn babes. It has long been known that sooe ner.ibers of the Mustelidae family to which the badger, weasels, stoats and otters belong show this feature. Our knowledge of th'e explanation is of only recent origin. It se􀕀s thnt the enbryos . develop to the size of a pin-head and then rer.iain floating ioose in their raother's 􀕁omb until the end of the year. 4hen thl3 ninute objects do become attnched to 'the woob-wall their developoE,nt is very rapid. To all the active growth of the eobryo last on:..y . eight weeks. So now I know that it will not be oan:y weeks before, once again I will be delighted by the play of the young cubs as I watch fron the seclmion of the old ivy.

I am staying in one of the last forts ever to be built in this country. Its purpose was to defend the fleet in Milford Haven against a suspected attack by Napoleon 111. The fort subsequently passed to a succession of private owners before being obtained by the Field Studies Council. Its fine foot thick walls are not conducive to warmth and comfort. Surprisingly, though, the Spartan conditions seem to promote great intellec tual activity, Part of this activity involves writing an editorial. I am very grateful to the people of Dorney for the connections I have had with them. It is the first time I have eve·r "belonged" to a village and it contrasts strongly with my previous life in towns. What has surprised me most is the friendliness of people in Dorney as I had always been led to expect that villagers are slow to accept new people, Perhaps Dorney is the welcome exception t One of the few things we can legitimately lament in Dorney is the lack of a stable population. Constantly folk seem to be on the move. 2 0 ssibly there is no solution to this when people are forced to live in houses which push their resources to the limit. In view of this fact it is all the more surprising that our village orgenisations, including this magazine, are so flourishing. The burden of work is borne by a few who would always appreciate􀪩 assistance􀪩 if􀪩 it􀪩 could􀪩 only􀪩 pe􀪩 obtained.􀪩 I􀪩 shall􀪩 remember􀪩 Dornoy􀪩 for􀪩 a􀪩 long􀪩 time􀪩 and􀪩 hope􀪩 to􀪩 follow􀪩 your􀪩 news􀪩 in􀪩 the􀪩 raagl'lzine.􀪩 T􀪩 am􀪩 very􀪩 grateful􀪩 to􀪩 Mr.􀪩 Cody􀪩 who􀪩 has􀪩 managed􀪩 so􀪩 much􀪩 of􀪩 the􀪩 work.􀪩 We􀪩 welcome􀪩 Mr.􀪩 Spiers􀪩 as􀪩 new􀪩 joint􀪩 editor􀪩 and􀪩 wish􀪩 l,in􀪩 well.􀪩 - - - - - - - - - - After􀪩 this􀪩 issue􀪩 illr.􀪩 Keith􀪩 Wiseman􀪩 is􀪩 resigning􀪩 as􀪩 Co-Editor.􀪩 He􀪩 has􀪩 moved􀪩 away􀪩 from􀪩 Dorney􀪩 and􀪩 feels􀪩 he􀪩 is􀪩 out􀪩 of􀪩 touch􀪩 with􀪩 our􀪩 local􀪩 affairs.􀪩 He􀪩 has􀪩 served􀪩 on􀪩 the􀪩 News􀪩 for􀪩 the􀪩 past􀪩 two􀪩 years􀪩 and􀪩 we􀪩 are􀪩 very􀪩 sorry􀪩 to􀪩 lose􀪩 his􀪩 services.􀪩 He􀪩 goes􀪩 with􀪩 our􀪩 sincere􀪩 thanks􀪩 and􀪩 best􀪩 wishes􀪩 for􀪩 his􀪩 future.􀪩 - - - - - - - - SERVICES􀪩 JN􀪩 THE􀪩 2AiUSH􀪩 CHURCH􀪩 OF􀪩 ST.􀪩 J􀪩AiYJES.􀪩 HOLY􀪩 COHfr,ltJNION:􀪩,􀪩 '􀪩 .􀪩 .E􀨅ery􀪩 _Sunday ·􀪩at􀪩 8􀪩 a.m.􀪩 +􀪩 First􀪩 Sunday􀪩 of􀪩 the􀩂􀪩month􀪩 at􀪩 12􀪩 noon.􀪩 Third􀪩 Sunday􀪩 of􀪩 the􀪩 month􀪩 after􀪩 Evensong􀪆􀪩 MORNING􀪩 L'RA'"''"S􀪩􀩨.􀪩 ·􀪩 E􀪩 􀩩􀪩 S􀪩 d􀪩 t􀪩 1􀪩 .i.c.n. very􀪩 un􀪩 ay􀪩 a􀪩 1􀪩 a􀪩,D..􀪩 +􀪩 EVENSONG:􀪩 SUNDA Y􀪩 SCHOUL:􀪩 VICAR:'􀪩 CH URC!fiii'AliDENS:􀪩 Every􀪩 Sunday􀪩 at􀪩 6,30􀪩 p. m. 􀩃􀪩 Every􀪩 Sunday􀪩 at􀪩 9,50􀪩 ff. m.􀪩 +􀪩 :PLEASE􀪩 NOTE􀪩 '.CHAT􀪩 ON􀪩 THE􀪩 FIRS T􀪩 SUNDAY􀪩 OF􀪩 EAC;H􀪩 lil.uNTH􀪩 .THESE􀪩 SERVICES􀪩 \HLL􀪩 BE.􀪩RE2LACED􀪩 BY􀪩 ·􀪩A􀪩 FAMILY􀪩 EUCHARIST􀪩 AT􀪩 9,45􀪩 A.Jill.􀪩 •􀪩 'The􀪩 Rev,􀪩 E.􀪩 T.􀪩 slie:rlock,􀪩 A.

I fervently hope this is not so, but I believe it can only be avoided by a great effort from everyone. The article contained a number of statistics which are probably relevent but, like most • figures, do not tell the whole story and possibly give a misleading picture to those of us unused to inter􀆶reting them. The quotations from eminent people concerned with the problem interested me more and one in particular seemed to strike the right note - "It is the product of a chaotic society in which we have so much emphasised individualism that we have forgotten to raise our people with some conception of their obligation to society as a whole. It simply reflects what is current in American life - the attitude of how do I get mine and the hell with everyone else and the willingness to use force for the achievement of these obje ctives with utter disregard for what the impact may be - the right to revert to the laws of the jungle •.... New York just happens to be first." To me this simply means that to a large degree, people as a whole are too insular and too selfish and have abandoned the ordinary standards of caornes i1?dreepraetreido n tofo ra,t taanidn btehhaevirio uowrn toe,n dso thneor sm aatntde r what the cost to others. causOeusr ofm attheer iaprloibsltemic. outItl ooiks insat ounrea lo ft ot hwea nmta in "ltowheirn gsor" ba.buts midfon, isonm ger partiinfcyiipnlg e ouorr sdtesainrdeasr,d owfe ahnumd ano nbe eshtaavritousr o, nt thhene silti ?iPs enr;io slloopneg.e r rational rounTdh" e.coolndta aidnasg ea v"alsovte amm:lokunets tofh e twrourthl d bgeco ause lsouvsete, nainnc ei ttsh wati dtehset hmumeaanni ngs,p i&riote sn eperdovsi. tdeo atthte ain Lhoavppinigne siss. beHiangpp iunnessesl fiissh l; oviirE, gb aenidn gb ecihnagri ltoaybelde,. lpeanrdt iac uhlaanrdl yt oin t htohsoueg thhta; t niese ab eiitn;g wiisl lbienign gt o faithful to oneself.

Whether playing with children, pulling up a few weeds or tying up some drooping plants, cutting the grass or just enjoying the sun, it seems to matter little - the amount of pleasure is similar. Sometimes, when enjoying these simple pleasures, I feel for town flatdwellers who do not have a patch of their own and wonder whether they miss these enjoyments, or whether they have never known them, I do understand that some people do not, never have and probably never will, enjoy the constant pleasure that a garden gives to many, but no doubt they have other ways of finding the quiet restfulness that is to be found in a garden. The theory that serenity surrounds people who work and live close to the soil seems, in my opinion, to be well founded. Perhaps many of you have experienced the sense of contentment that steals over one when working amongst the flowers, plants and vegetables. The nearness to nature seems to restore one's sense of values, showing how often the simple things bring peace of mind and contentment. Standing back from the hurly burly of our working lives one can see many of the superficial and false values we sometimes accept in the daily struggle of living. But if, to stay . in the "swim" we use these values, but keep our perspective, then there is still hope, and we can enjoy the hours when we are "down to earth" in our gardens.

As was characteristic of Christ, he refused to be drawn into a theological debate; instead he takes the Pharisee ba􀚵k :in thought to what ht was taught in his childhood; to the great si,.1plici ties that l1.1y at - the grass-roots of his religion. It was the nearest approach to a creed ir, Judaisra, anrl there was nothing new about it. imd yet he rerainds the Pharise·e that· these great sinplici ties were in grave danger of being buried under a nass of mannade regulations of no spiritual significance. 􀚶hat was needed was a 'break-through' into what religion is all about: 'Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your nind'. '!.'hat is the greatest co=andraent. It oomes firs t. The second is like it: 'Love your neighbour as yourself'. Everything in the Law and the prophets hangs on these two co=andments. (St. Matt: 32. vv, 36 - 40). These are the great siraplici ties, our Lord told the Pharisee, that should notivate the lives of raen. It is refreshing in th ese days of religious dialogue to turn back to the words of Jesus and to hear hin reaffirra so sinp ly the great truths that lie at the foundation of our religious profession. Jlnd with this, all Christians will surely agree. SUNDAY, JULY 6TH. (TR1NI'IY 5) Faraily Eucharist and Address. ALTJ..R FLO'ilERS, July 5th; 12th. 19th. 26th. Aug. 2nd. l:IIrs.

Dear 2arents and Friends, By now oost of you will know that I shall soon be leaving Dorney County Prinary School to co=en ce work on an educational project at Great Mi ssenden. I have been here exactly 11½ years and one cannot live, work and pray with people for that length of tine without feeling that one has becooe part of the conmunity. My fauily and I have been very happy in Dorney, made many fri ends and felt very much at hone so it is natura.l that I feel sorry that the tiue has cone for oe to leave Dorney School. On the other han d, I am very hAppy that I have been given the opportunity to try ny hand in & new and exciting sphere of education - happy too for Dorney School , because this loads to another chapter in its Uh.folding and interesting history. With the. P. T.A. sponsored Project Roou nearing coopletion it means the new Headnaster will find there is plenty here to encourage him. I am quite sure that under Mr. Price's leadership Dorney School will continue to thrive. He will bring his -special gifts and int erests to the life of the sch ool so that the co=unity will be the better for his appointm.ent . • I an very conscious of a vast amount of work which I .sh ould have liked to have conpleted he;re . Yet ouch has been done and uy firo inpression of Dorney will always be one of interesting, constant and deuanding hard work. Only uy far.tily know of the heavy de□ands which have had to be net.

Generally kibbutzniks have a couple of roans and suall bathroora if uarried, e single roou only if no·t, while a volunteer nomally shares a roou with one or two other volunteers in the long, low bungalows typical of the kibbutzm. The kibbutziu are nainly agricultural in their orientation, although nany now have roall industries of their own, such as naking anything frou wooden dolls, as did the one I was on, to sh eet plastic, as on a nearby kibbutz. A volunteer worker can expect to have to a" anything fron washing dishes to picking citrus fruits. I was Dostly engRged in picking grapefruit. but on wet days I did other things. One of the nore anusing jobs I did was noving ch ickens - five in each hand - fron one hut to another. The fun began when one occasionally flew out of ny grasp and I had to chase it, still holding the other nine ! lmot her job was scewering caterpillars out of the branches of pear tree s with a sh ort length of· wire. The work is undoubtedly fairly arduous - six to eight hours a day - usually starting early in the norning so that one has nost, if not all of the afternoon off, but one quickly gets into the routine of it and, if anything , it is the slightly boring and uninspiring nature of nuch of the work that begins to pall, rather tha n its being too deuanding. Kibbutzniks, at least fron ny own experience, were friendly but rather reserved at first. One is accep ted at one's face value and the real criterion by which they judge one is by one's willingness and ability to do the work one is given. I personall y found ny two uonths on a kibbutz a very interesting experience. The connunal living and the work were new and worthwhile experiences and I net sane very interesting people during ray tine there, since the other volunteers, who nUJJ.bere d about 20, caoe fron as diverse countries as Japan and Dutch Guie.na. Social life on a kibbutz is as lively as you nake it ! Tl:o kibbutz also provided an idee.l base froo which to go off and see the country. Finally, a brief mention of the Middle East war ""- a factor which could well .put off raany people froo going and enjoying Ps interesting an experience as I had. In fact, f'.s is often the case, things seera very different to what one hears o·n the news or reads in the pr ess.· Of course there is fighting along the Canal and there are occasional · shellings, but in the two raonths that I was on the kibbutz it could all have been Eeverai thousand 􀚹iles away for all it bothered us. Besides, as volunteers fro;:i abroad are never sent to border kibbutzin anyway, the war should not be too uuch of a deterrent 􀚺 Thus, in conclusion, I oan heartily reco.e?id a working visit. to a kibbutz as A very rewarding and enjoy'3ble experience for anyone who can spare the ti􀚻e and noney it costs to get there aud back. Peter Fletcher.:. THE WEATHER OF MAY. May was a rather unsettled mnth, with .mixed but not wholly unpleasant weather. It was douiq.ated by low pressure systeoE nearby, and only on the 11th, and 12th, and tetween the 18th, and 23rd, did the baroueter rise above 30 11 .- The uontli showed little pattern; no settled spells, and yet only two days, the 10th, with • 3211 of rain, and the 26th with • 55", when over a quarter of an inch fell. Al though there were nineteen days or ueasured rainfall, the total for tb:e uonth, 2. 5211 was not significantly. above ' , nomal. Here I think we were lucky for no st of the country had rauch nore than the average. Again although there were no raore than three days without some sunshine, there were only five days when the sun shone for nore than half the day. There was one unusually hot day, 78oF on the 13th, due to a warn southerly wind frora the Mediterranean, There were no air frosts, the coldest day being the 18th, with 37°F. Thunder storns occurred on the 16th, 24th, 29th and 30th, but were less severe locally, than in other not very distmit areas, ISOBAR. NATURE NOTES. A great deal of research has been devoted to the study of seni-fossilized renains in ancient peat beds. Pollen grains are often found well preserved in enomous quantities, and as each plant has its own characteristic shape of pollen, it is easy to identify the plant species by oerely looking at the pollen, Using this technique geologists have been able to say that t􀚸ees like the spruce, fir and horse chestnut are certainly introductions to this country whereas birches, alders and oaks are native. As one delves deeper into the peat beds one is r.1oving back through tine, and the reraains indicate, through the types of plants represented, the cliraate that must have prevailed at that particular tine to have allowed that kind of vegetation to have existed, To the hay-fever sufferer, pollen is probably the greatest cause of misery. is the result of the boc:Ji' s reeScptriionng thoa tyr-efeever pollens such as ·the willoVJ3, he.zels and. poplars; wfhreorne aoisd gll'lraasys teos oaried Athueg umsat.i n Dceeiusley opof lldenis tcroeunsst s are oade in the season by expoeing a sticky piece of glass to the air, and then, with the aid of a mtihcart ohsacovpee ,b eceonu nctaiunghg t.t heA n usncboerre ·oofr · 2po0l0l eisn cgornains sidered very high, yet on the 16th June, 1964, the count was 800. 10% oThfe stehe v peryop uslahotriot nl icvaeusdi gngr aithnesi ar ffbeodcit esso mteo hriesstpaonnidn besy. prHoidsuct1i¥J.ngin essu basrtae ncuseee d cbayl lethde body as aas o ceaann sb oef sienecnr ebay sithnge trheed bswloeoldl infglo wo .ft .oa asnc raartecah, or weal.

EDITORIAL This morning (18th July), it was announced that British Rail had ordered a new £2½ m􀕻 ferry boat from an Italian shipyard. British Yards were invited to tender but only three troubled to do so·􀕼 The Italian tender :i,s not only the lowest but delivery is p-rom.ised two months earlier than any other tender. Delivery is of crucial importance because B.R. wish to use the ship for the summer season of 1971, The immediate reaction, at least from shipyards and other interested parties, seems to be of indignant horror,. How could a nationalised body place such an order abroad ? What price the "Pm backing Britain" Campaign ? One M.P·. described the whole affair as "shocking"􀅤 • My personal reaction is one of dismay, I am far from indignant that the order has been placed abroad, just ashamed; but I am dismr,i;ted at "the World owes me a Ii ving" attitude pre, alent in this country, Private and public indU'!'ltries are constantly brought to a grinding halt by official and unofficial strikes·. Shipyard owners must drerun of demarcation, Surely the IJI.Ost damaging single factor which has constributed to orders going elsewhere is the unreliability of promised delivery dates, Yet, despite all, so me people cah still be "shocked" that B.R. will not pay more and wait longer for their ship'􀅥 Nationalised industries are not philanthropic institutions; they are handling public money and have the responsibility to be run efficiently. This is our money. I am in favour of my shnre being used wisely but I ao. not in favo-ur of it being handed out in strike pay. If Britain is a Welfare State, Europe is a competitive society and to survive we need to understand that competit ion requires effort and some sacrifice􀕽 Maybe we need the Penal incentives and lower taxes . need is our re ·aainess to do a good days' pay·.

If God is ·not in possession, somethin g else soon will b·e, for man cannot remain unpossessed ·. Th'e re is no ·such thing as spiritual neutrality in life; we are all going in one direction or the other for good or evil . There is no. guait'antee against the reversion to sin except· the indwelling Christ. Our Lord reminds us in this parable that even the divine forgivene ss - which after all is a raeans to an end - fails unless Christ takes possession of us. One last thought, our Lord casts out sin by entering in; but it means the entire submission of the penitent to Christ who made man for himself. Of all of Christ's parables, this one is perhaps the most violent in its content, the most dynamic and the least flattering to man. SUNDAY, AUGUS T 3RD , { TRINITY 9) Family Euc.ha rist and Address.

I heard a ruoour rec ently that a meeting had been held in Dorney about the 'prospects of main drainage being at 'last bro ught to, the. Village and to 'Dorney Reach. . I qra sure tb is 'ruuour .must be true; it came from a very rel iable source but it seeras strange that the Parish Council did not mak e greater efforts to let people know about it. It is a matter thAt has been regularly and • fr equently raised at the Annuei Parish Meeting and yet apparentlY. it was not 'thought appropriate to inform the Dorney Parish News so that i ta reAders· could come and hear what th e developments were that ,justified calling a meeting; However, I had no doubt that a report would be sent to th e Parish News so that those of us who did not know about the meeting befor'ehand could at least find out afterwards what it was about. Fro1:1 •t he f-ec t that no such· report appeared in the Parish News I take it that none was sent to you; While th e professional p'r ess is normally exp ected to find its own news, the survival cif a paper such as yours, which is run on a voluntary basis, must depend on those concerned sending you reports of 1:1at ters of inter est to your readers. If we have to dep end for news 􀡖f Dorney events on th e local professional press, which I for one do not read, then wh2t is the point of having a ?arish Magazine of 􀚇ur own. . I have heaxd it said that local politics lik􀚈 professional sport is for those bright 􀠽nough to tmderstand the g'3ille and din e􀘿ough to think it uatters.

We are.fast approaching Christmas and if at· present all it means is crowded stores and extra work, Cnristmas Day will'suddenJy surface fro􀓂 under the wrapping paper and surprise us, It is strange hvw the peria:i between one Christmas and another seems to shorten·every·year, but it suits me admirably for I enjoy Christmas, The tr&nd, I know, is to ccndemn it as a drunken revel that becomes annually more commercialised, more expensive and more pagan, I suspect that the eame ccndelllnB.tion could apply to any public holicay or festival throughout the year end if Christmas 1s·becoming more pagan it is not time to write the whcle thing off but time tc revita!ise it witl: its true significa.n􀓃e. I do not believe that Christmas has lost dntirely He spiritual me,ming, for there is en undeniable spir::.t of goodwill tnat gradually builds-up towards the 25th; feelings of friendship end charity. increase and people are not ashamed tc show a spark of love for each other. Underneath the crust of commeraialism the joy of Christmas is unchangi!l,'.l', May- this Christmas be ari especially happy tjme for us all, ' JtlOElll!>EXl(K)Cl!M SERVICES IN THE PARISH CHURCH OF ST.

John 1. vv. l - 14) sets the tone for the whole book, Some scholars have thought of it as a hymn to the divine reason and others as a preface to the Gospel added after the book had been written. First, we notice that John's Gospel begins differently from the other three. Matthew and Luke begin with our L/rd's birth in Bethlehem, and Mark begins with the opening phase of our Lord's Ministry at the Jordan; but Jo'm takes us ·oack beycn􀓈 Bethlehem to 'The Wcrd of God' in eternity; he tells us that 'The Word of God' dwelt with Gcd before ever time began, and was the agent in the work of creation and the source of life and light. But what does John mean when he writes that 'The Word bec8Jile Flesh' ? What is the meaning of the term 'W ord' or 'Logos' as applied to our Lord? In the first place, we sh0uld remember that the term 1 word 1 or 'logos' does not in Greek thought simply mean a symbol of thought or utterance; it also means 'mind' or 'reason•. The term originated with the Greek thinker, Heraclitus, about 600 B.C. who used it to express that which gives order to a c:1anr;ing universe. To Plato it signified an intermediary between God and the material universe. ·The Stoics, thrilled with the crder of the Universe, thought of it as the 'mind' of God, putting sense and meaning into creation. Philo, a Jewish thinker, who lived about 20 B,C. thought cf the 'word' as the image of God and the bridge between God and man, thro.igh which God communicated with man. In his prdcgue, John revoluticnised the idea in two ways:- First, he tells us that this divine re􀓉son ,r mind 'became flesh' in the perscn of the man Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is the embodiment cf the mind, thought and reason of God in terms of flesh and blood. It is in this sense t:nat we understand the divin􀓊.ty of Jesus Christ and think cf him as 1 GPd in the Flesh'. Second, John says in the prdogue to-his Gospel - tc: quoi;e the words of the N.E,B, - 'What God uas, the word was•. In other words, when we look at Jesus Clrist, we see God. Through Jesus, as through no one else, God spcke and God acted . and continues tc: speak and aot. To use a metaphor, Jesus is the window int􀓋 God at work. 'He who has seen me, has seen the Father' (St. John 14 v. 9). In this connection it is worth bearing in mind that according to Jewish thought a •word' actually did things; it was an effective cause. Thus we may thirl<: of our Lord as the creating pover of God incarnate ix our midst, He did not come so much to say things to us. as to do things for us. All this and much more is the teaching underlying the Gospel for Christmas Iay. THE F ll.MILY EUCHJi.RIST iJID AD.DRESS , Sunday, 7th December (Advent 2) at 9.45 a,m, THE CAROL.
