I do know that it was Emer son who wrote "Some of the hurts you have cured and the sharpest you still have survived, but what torments and grief you endured from evils which never arrived." Isn't that just true to life in your own experience? You agree? Right! How about reading the New Testa ment daily as a cure for that worry ing. It is when we learn to put our hands of weakness into the strong hands of God that we can go into the future together in great hope
fulness. Truthfully, you think that is a
bit glib, don't you? I thought you might, but that is because you have not tried it yet. You think that is a bit too sim
ple? Christian faith is just as sim ple! It has to be for some of us who are not exactly Brain of Britain types. It was the ordinary, unlearned folks who heard Jesus so gladly, but what they heard and understood made them into extra ordinary people. If you will steep your mind into
what you read in the Now Testa ment of the words and teaching of Jesus you will find not only a cure for worry but a new way of life alto gether. I can assure you that Jesus wants
then, why not give to Jesus your old, unsatisfactory life in return? As a matter of fact, this is how it usu ally works out. You have to let go of the old to accept the new. If your hands are full of worthless things and you are offered a gift that is beyond price, you will soon have empty hands to receive gifts, won't you? I have been telling you not only
a cure for worry but also offering you a new worthwhile way of life with penetrating new insights so that your old values will disappear to make way for new ones. St Paul, writing to one of the

Castle Cement's scrubber figures bring admiring visitors to plant

his newspaper has printed plenty of peo ple's complaints about
leading edge of this technology and so there is work still to do. Castle Cement says that so far it halves dust and cuts down car bon dioxide output by a remark able 95 per cent, although it is fair to say that some air quality campaigners need to be con
vinced. But other big players in the
cement industry have made up their minds about the success of
the project and have started vot ing with their chequebooks. The scrubber's designers, Mon
santo Enviro-chem, have already received a $25m. order for two sim ilar ones from Swiss company Holderbank. They are actually for a plant it owns in Michigan. Last week a team of top Holder-
bank executives (pictured here) visited Clitheroe to look at the system in detail. Other firms have already been and more will follow to closely examine this unusual and expensive business attraction!

Proud family travels South to see Scott pass out as marine
TODAY is set to be a proud day for the family and friends of 21-year-old Clitheroe man Scott Far
quhar. A party of 33 people is set
to travel south to Exmouth to watch the former St Michael and St John RC Primary School pupil pass out as a Royal Marine Commando and receive his coveted green beret. Before joining the armed forces, and after completing
his studies at St Augustine's RC High School in Billington, Mr Farquhar, the son of Clitheroe couple Mr Stuart and Mrs Susan Farquhar, worked locally as an appren
playing in the Dog and Par tridge pub team. As a teenag er he also swam for England's
tice joiner. In January this year he joined the Royal Marines and started 30 weeks' intensive training at the Commando Training Centre in Lymp- stone, Exmouth. A keen sportsman, Mr Far
quhar enjoyed swimming, scuba diving and football,
reader prize
Helen wins our junior
I AUGUST'S Junior Readers' Club book review winner was eight-year- old Helen Robinson (pictured) from
Read. The book she reviewed was "Charlotte's
Web," by E. B. White. Helen, a pupil at Read C.E. Primary
School and a member of the Brownies, was extremely impressed by the book and wrote: "This book is about a pig called Wilbur. When he was just a little baby piglet a little girl called Fern looked after him in a barn until she had to give him away to Mr Zuckerman, her uncle. Wilbur's best friend was called Charlotte, a spider. To stop Mr Zuckerman killing Wilbur, Charlotte wrote words in her web to make Wilbur look good. "After many adventures Wilbur went to
the fair. Everybody was at the fair, and Wilbur asked Charlotte if she and Tem pleton, the rat, would come too. Charlotte
A CLIENT of Calder- stones NHS Trust wants to express gratitude for excellent care received during treatment at the Christie Hospital, Man
chester. Staff at Calderstones are keen to help, so they are
managed to get there by jumping from her web into a hole in the trailer. Templeton ran in and covered himself with straw. At the fair Charlotte laid 514 eggs. Wilbur .won a Bronze award at the fair, and Char lotte stayed at the fair for the rest of her life. But Joy, Aranea and Nellie, three of Charlotte's children, stayed at the barn. "This book was excellent and I would love to read it again."

Top-flight task for Whalley ornithologist
STRONG commitment to helping preserve Britain's birds saw the Ribble Valley's Simon Travis hi-tail down to
Dorset this week. He is yet another local
person with unusual skills which could, over the years, make him a key fig ure in a competitive field. Born and brought up in
Whalley, Mr Travis (30) has been a keen ornitholo gist since childhood and for the past few months has been working to help build up the rare hen harrier colony on the North West Water land in Bowland. The contract was with
with looking after birds and a long "apprenticeship" of sometimes backbreaking routine work in the wild is needed to get on to the management ladder. Mr Travis already has a
the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, but the water company has met the costs as part of its own com mitment to getting the best from its large tracts of land. A former pupil of Rib-
lot of experience in various parts of the country - earli er this year he was in Scot land but his new job is near Poole, Dorset. Again with the RSPB, it involves mak ing the heather moors there a better habitat for the many birds on the South coast. Months of hard work

blesdale High School, Clitheroe, Mr Travis is determined to make his career in conservation. "But so are many other people who are just as keen on birds as me," explained Mr Travis this week. There are many appli cants for any job concerned
with equipment such as tractors and chainsaws lies ahead but it should prove worthwhile. Mr Travis has an unusual
advantage over many other aspirants to conservation. He has a degree in furniture design and production from Nottingham University, so very few competitors can make such good hides, nest ing boxes and the like as him!
