GREENOC5 CEQRCE Greenock Church is one of the chief tourist at- tractions in St. Andrews. Its attractive lines, painted in snow white colour, present a picture of purity to anyone passing. The spire, with its several symbols, pointing hea- ven-ward makes one feel the desire to go inside, where may be seen master workmanship and material unsurpassed anywhere. Towards the end of the eighteenth century, ship- builders from Greenock, Scotland, began to settle in St. And- rews. As soon as sufficient numbers had arrived they started building a church, which was given the name, Greenock, from the city so dear to them as home, and where their Presbyter- ian faith was so firmly established. The enclosed family pews, the high pulpit, the gal- lery supported by ten pillars of solid bird's eye maple, and faced with solid mahogany from Honduras are but a few of the things which give it outstanding beauty. In each of the four corners of the ceiling is a large Scotch thistle made of plaster. Acorns have been hand-carved on the pulpit. The hinges on the doors and the screws which fasten them are the only metal used in the building. In the summer of 182 , the building was dedicated to the worship of God and has since been a source of comfort as well as a thing of beauty to residents and visitors alike who avail themselves of the privilege of coming within its Muri el Smi th Grade IX sanctuary.

The back of the cage in which the bears were kept was made of stone and the front was made of iron bars. In- side the cage was a tree for the bears to climb and a tub of water for them to drink. The bears had large feet and long claws, big teeth a big mouth and shiny fur. There were a lot of boys and girls feeding the bears peanuts. The bears would stand on their hind legs beg- ging for more.

Those that stay with us do not mind the cold. Feathers keep them warm and their blood is warmer than ours. Some birds that stay in the winter are chick-a-dees, some woodpeckers, bluejays, crows, gulls and starlings. They eat crumbs, weed seeds, insects, and their eggs, and berries left hanging on the trees. Gladstone Smith Grndn
