for lawnmower fire
Going for the gold
Four 4-H Go for the Gold teams were in Clinton late last month for the annual Huron County
competition, which was held at Clinton United Church. Placing fourth was the South Huron
"Bad Bad Black Sheep" Sheep Club, above, while the Huron Goat Club, below, placed third.

Didn't we just know that once it
started raining, it wouldn't know
how to quit? We have had our share
of rain in just a week along with
scorching temperatures still. I
generally enjoy summer heat but
some days recently have exhausted
even me. On the other hand I am not
ready yet for fall coolness. And yet
school is less than two weeks away.
The fire trucks from Blyth went
racing through the village again last
Friday afternoon. They were
responding to a call at the
intersection of Dutch Line and
Winthrop Road. A lawn mower had
rolled over during operation along
the edge of the road and caught fire.
No casualties were reported.
In that nasty storm that rumbled
overhead on Friday night a lightning
strike caused some electrical
casualties in the area.
Last week Jeff and Lauren
Johnston and boys moved from the
village into Clinton. We wish them
well in their new surroundings. Jeff
continues to work at the mill in the
village.
We visited a public grandstand on
Sunday. As I watched people of all
ages come and go, it made me
realize all such buildings should
have centre railings up and down the
stairs, if only for safety's sake.
There was a great deal of hoopla
recently over the last concert by
"The Tragically Hip". Last Saturday
night, there were no shortage of
venues where one could watch their
final concert broadcast by the CBC
from Kingston. The neat thing about
the viewings was the monies made
for charities. The band is to be
commended for allowing the
country to be a part of their
farewell.
Speaking of bands, "Can't Buy
Me Love" was a hit for another
musical group, the Beatles. In the
midst of the foursome's incredible
rise to fame and fortune, Paul
McCartney suddenly realized he had
the means to buy anything he
desired. The thought left him feeling
rather hollow when he realized no
amount of money could buy him
what he really wanted: love. He sat
down that very day at the piano in
his room in a Paris hotel and wrote
"Can't Buy Me Love".
Something unique about love is
that it is a quality of life that even
when we give it away, we still have
more and receive more. Paul gave all
of us love with his song.
