Unfortunately there has been
a real rash of fires the past few
days. On Friday firemen
answered a call to the farm of
Austin Shea at RR 5, Clinton
where an implement shed had
ignited. The fire had been
extinguished before the arrival
of the truck. The shed housed
some welding equipment which
was not damaged.
On Saturday afternoon a
blaze in an empty barn in the
John Street area, owned by Don
Andrews, was put out by the fire
brigade. This fire is believed to
have been started by children.
About 9:30 Sunday morning
firemen were called to 32
Whitehead Street where a car
owned by Maynard Hymers was
burning. The fire was in the
interior of the car, the back seat
being destroyed completely.
Origin of the fire is not known.
Sunday afternoon firemen
were called to Clayt's Gulf
Station on Victoria Street. Fire
broke out in a car in the garage
but employees were able to get
it outside. Damage in the
interior of the garage was only
smoke. However the car itself
was damaged extensively.

Today we played a scissor
game. After our time was up we
went into our six corners. There
we took attendance and checked
inspection. In inspection the
Elves and the Imps got a blue
circle for having one fault and
the pixies got a green circle for
having three faults.
After that we had Brownie
Ring and Fairy Gold. When that
was over Grey Owl took the
tweenies, Brown Owl took the
Golden Bar Brownies and Tawny
Owl took the Golden Hand
Brownies.
The tweenies learned braiding,
the Golden Bar Brownies made
tidy room charts and the Golden
Hand Brownies made potato
men. When that was finished we
had pow-wow and taps and then
went home.
