BEDFORD HILLS The Rev- Dr. Harry Meserve
spoke to the Unitarian Fellowship
of Northern Westchester on Sun­
day, at the Bedford Hills Com­
munity House.
The subject, "Let Us Have A
Great Controversy," dealt with
the recent joint convention of Uni­
tarians and Universalists in Syra­
cuse, at which it was voted to
recommend a merger of these two
groups.
Dr. Meserve feels that the Syra­
cuse Convention was necessary
if the two denominations are to
work together organizationally, but
that as members of a liberal re­
ligious group, we should all
look thoughtfully, not only at or­
ganization, but at the deeper is­
sue of faith.
The Democratic process is a
poor way to settle theological dis­
agreements, the minister said.
"One c a n n o t vote on ultimate
truth. An individual must be free
to seek truth in his own way."
Dr. Meserve said that although
co. Three women pictured, who we, as Unitarians, certainly belong
have given more than 250 hours to the great general stream of
of service in 1959 aie Mrs. Roy Christianity, we draw inspiration
Rutt. second from left and in from all religions, and our pur­
usual order Mrs. Haydcn Ma- pose must be to cherish and
roney ano Miss Winifred Reyn­ spread the teachings of Jesus and
the great Jewish prophets.

ARMONK—
Fred R. Herrmann, 119 Nethermont Ave., North White Plains,
Thursdav was aDDointed to the
North Castle Zoning Board of Ap­
peals at the meeting of the North
Castle Town Board.
Herrmann, an advertising exec­
utive with Readers Digest, 230
Park A v e , New York, for the past
ten years, was named to replace
James Stanfield of North White
Plains who resigned from the zon­
ing board this week.
Herrmann's appointment was ef­
fective last night but he did not
sit with the zoning board at their
meeting which also was held last
night.
A native of White Plains, Herr­
mann is married and the fath­
er of three sons, Kurt, Daryll and
Enc.
It is expected that 40 million
Christmas trees will be sold this
month, about 28 million of them
grown in the United States and
about 12 million imported! from
Canada. While these trees will
bnng the Christmas spirit into
many homes, unless properly oar­
ed for they may also bring mis­
fortune.
For safety's sake, be sure that
the tree you buy is fresh, then
see that it has enough water to
stay fresh. Of the many chemicals
that have been fried for fire-proof­
ing trees, none has proved to be
better than plain water. Water
will keep a tree naturally moist
and thus resistant to burning.
Christmas trees dry out from ex­
posure to sun and air on the sales
lot. By shopping early, you can
choose a moist one—that is, the
needles will feel moist as you run
your hand over the boughs.
When you bring the tree home,
throw cold water all over it; cut
off the butt end, about an inch
slantwise, so that it may draw up
water; set the tree in water; keep
it cool and shaded until ready to
bring indoors; then use a con­
tainer that will hold water and
that may be replenished regularly.
You may find that the tree will
use up a quart of water the first
day, but afterwards, only a cup
or so daily.
