WOODS Operation wood-tick! There is no other name for it. On one of the first hot days in mid-August, Lucy was sitting out near the barn in, the shade watching a friend unwind the tentacles of wild buckwheat from around her Imperial gold and silver lilies beside the bird-feeding station. In the evening as she sat close by the house; and began to feel that something was biting her neck, she said, "Look, Carl! Is there a spider or something on my neck?" He reached dyer and brushed something. It didn't move. "It's a wood-tick," he exclaimed. "Sit still." And before Lucy could speak, he caught something, gave a quick jerk, and a flabby little white or putty-colored body about . 3/16" long lay on the cement. From whence had it come? It must have dropped off the close-growing lilacs by the barn — the only 'shady spot where ihe could watch 'the gardening which she loved as long as she was able to do it. Then Lucy began to worry. "Had Carl pulled the head out?!' He didn't know and couldn't see. Lucy began thinking of the only other places she had seen these nasty little bloodsuckers — on their dogs which went under the barn ,at their old house on Main Street after rats, rabbits and skunks. First there was Toodles, Jean's little black-and-white terrier in the early 1920s. Abe Brandon gave her to father. Lucy was driving him to see the latter when he was ill. She didn't want the pup with half her face white, half black and a contrasting ear on one side, but she dutifully carried her home in a paper bag with her head sticking out. Mother was annoyed. She didn't want a pup in the kitchen. Grandmother Buchan took the broom to chase her out from under her feet. And Jean came home from school in Clinton and said: "Oh, the dear little puppy.", And from that moment Toodles, as Jean re-named her, was her dog. Needless to say, all the family missed her when after a few years, she like other pets in the village died of poisoned venison set by someone who had a mania for killing dogs. • Toodles wasn't very old before one or two ticks were discovered on her. Lucy remembered that father was specific in his instructions to light a match, blow it out and touch the body of the tick with the live coal. Then grab quickly. The burn made the tick relinquish its blood sucking hold. Otherwise, if pulled off without it, trouble would arise. Then in the 1930s came Lucy's fox terrier, Mickey Free. And the same procedure followed for him. The trouble was to hold the dogs still during the treatment. Lucy also remembered that as quite a young girl, she'd been playing on the beach. A tiny red insect stuck to her chest. Shetried to get it off and couldn't. So she went to father with her trouble. He heated a little probe with which he touched it and managed to get it out with forceps. There wasn't much of it showing but it had burrowed right in through the skin. No doubt it belonged to the same family. So Lucy kept thinking of these incidents and wondered, out loud if the head of the animal was still in her neck while she visualized all •the trouble it could cause. The result was that three friend§ proceeded to operate.' One held, a very strong flashlight, another held a bottle of rubbing alcohol and the third operated with beauty tweezers. "Light," called the surgeon. She poked gingerly with the tweezers. "Yes, I see it!" said she. "Swab," she called. The spot and tweezers were duly treated to an alcohol bath. "Sit still," she advised the patient. Deftly, she began to dig out the sucking mouth, still containing a bit of Lucy's life blood. Next day, the "surgeon-for-a-night" called to, see if the patient was suffering. Lucy's mind was at peace anyway and the spot near her jugular -vein healed quickly. The Bayfield Agricultural Society were granted free use'of the Community Centre and Auditorium for the 1969 Fall Fair at a , meeting of the Community Centre Board last Thursday. Bob Snell presided over the meeting, at whiCh ladies of the Recreation Committee were present. Mrs. Snell, on behalf of the committee, presented a cheque for $1,150 to Charles Scotchmer, secretary- treasurer of the board. The cheque represents the Wedding balance of the money raised in dances, a walkathon and roller skating, and brings the total given 'the board since April to $3,000. Mr. Scotchmer reported that current assets are $230.89 against liabilities of $499.61 and noted that the cheque just received would change the balance on hand to $881.28. Grant Stirling, president of the Agricultural Society, and Fred Clift were present to ask for the use of the arena and auditorium for four days, to cover the Bayfield Fall. Fair — two actual fair days plus one day for preparation and one day for clean up. When it was pointed out by the board that no one could avoid the rental charges, Mr. Stirling said that this problem was covered by a clause in the agreement signed when the lease of the building was transferred. The Agricultural Society will, he said, pay for electric power. SEED WHEAT FOR SALE York Star and Talbot High Germination R.N.
