receives gift

at CFB Clinton, went through a
i red light recently and ended up
with a new wrist watch and a
cash gift.

accounts section and the
personnel office, Mrs. Scotchmer
decided to take a job at the
Canada Manpower Centre in
Goderich and her friends started
planning a surprise farewell
party.
Having accidentally driven
through a stop light on the base
on April 16, Mrs. Scotchmer
wasn't surprised to have Sgt.
• Frank Weir of the military police
'arrive at her office to escort her
to appear before the base
magistrate for the traffic
infraction.
But the destination turned
out to be the social centre where
the base commander, Col. E. W.
(Ryan, generously dismissed the
driving charge, together with the
more serious one of transferring
to another government
department, because of her Iong
and faithful service.
She was then given a gold
wrist watch and a purse of
moneycontributed by her
friends art 1d` fellow Workers, On
her last day of work, she also
received a letter of
commendation from Colonel
Ryan.

husband, Kenneth, live in

Lions hold first dinner meeting,
invite wives to community centre
More than 60 Bayfield Lions
and their wives attended a
dinner meeting and
entertainment in .the Bayfield
Community Centre Tuesday
evening.
The Lion president, Harry F.
Baker, welcomed the guests and
introduced four new members:
John Lindsay, Fred Lel3eau, Pat
Graham and Clair Merrier,
A Lion past president, George
Mayor, introduced Mrs. LeRoy
Poth, who with her husband
manning the projector, took the
audience on a trip back into and
beyond memory lane in Bayfield
and surrounding area,
For many the trip through
the years was a journey back to
nostalgia land. For others it was
an awakening education to see in
the passing scenes, people,
places, sight and happenings that
were once a part of life in
Bayfield. The gathering went
with Mrs. Poth to a proper
afternoon tea as she named the
hatted women in their dark,
floor -sweeping dresses. And later
saw them imitated by today's
ladies in centennial costume.
The audience mentally stood on
the bank of Lake Huron and
watched as one fishing tug went
to the rescue of another fishing
boat caught in the midst of
shifting ice and found she too
was trapped in the relentless ice
floes.
