SOLD See histories and historic photographs on the Huron History section of our website www.northhuron.on.ca T h e C itiz e n By Laurina VanDorp On Saturday, Aug. 21 the South Huron Sheep Club travelled to its first fair of the year, the Bayfield Fair. Other than sheep, there were dairy cows, miniature horses/ ponies, horses and at the end, a dog show. The sheep group had to shear the lamb and weigh it at the beginning. The shearer was Karen Weimier from Elmwood. When the fair started, the sheep group had to show their lamb in front of the judge, whose name was Anita DeJong. They also had to do showmanship with their lambs. Showing a lamb involves having the judge look at it from different angles. The judge could touch the lamb to check the width of the loin, the length of the loin, the meatiness of the lamb and the capacity of the lamb. Showmanship involves the judge looking at how the lamb is positioned, how it is handled and how the member handles a different person’s lamb. The judge was to pay attention to the positioning of the lamb’s legs, how the member strokes the lamb to straighten the fleece and the patience shown toward the lamb. Each participant received a ribbon for participating. For showmanship, everyone received $15 along with a ribbon. The clubs that attended for sheep were the North Huron 4-H Club, South Huron 4-H Sheep Club and the Lucknow 4-H Club. These are the first and second- place finishers for each class: breeding ewe lambs, first, Shelby Higgins, second, Laura Higgins; light lambs, Matt McNichol, Taylor Kinsmen; heavy lambs, Roy VanBruggen, Natalie Erwin; champion lambs, Matt McNichol, reserve champion Roy VanBruggen. Showmanship class: seniors, Joel Brodie, Kabrina Bishop; intermediate, Chelsey Terpstra, Jesse Kinsmen; junior, Emma Enders, Alanna Henderson; novice, Natalie Erwin, Laurina VanDorp; champion showman, Kabrina Bishop. In about two weeks, the 4-H club will be going to the Seaforth Fair, which is supposed to be more difficult. The next meeting for South Huron Sheep Club will be on Monday, September 6. 60th anniversary for Belgrave couple Sheep Club heads to first fair of the year Another milestone Ross and Barbara Anderson celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary at the Belgrave Community Centre on Sunday. (Vicky Bremner photo) Ross and Barbara Anderson celebrated 60 years of marriage with friends and family at the Belgrave Community Centre on Sunday, August 22. Ross, son of Jack and Myrtle Anderson, married Barbara, daughter of James and Jeanie Michie on August 19, 1950 at Belgrave United Church. The marriage was performed by Reverend Wesley J. Moore. Wedding attendants were maid of honour, Jean Wills, cousin of the bride; bridesmaids, Donna Anderson, sister of the groom and Jean Cole, cousin; flower girl, Ruth Michie, niece; best man, Lloyd Anderson, brother of the groom; ushers, George Michie, brother of the bride and Bill McClenaghan, friend. The couple lived in Belgrave after their marriage, where Ross was an electrician and plumber and operated Anderson’s Hardware store for 40 years, and Barbara was a housewife and storekeeper. Prior to her marriage, Barbara had been a school teacher for eight years. Prior to his marriage, Ross spent four years in the Royal Canadian Air Force as a radar mechanic. In 1990, the Andersons retired. The couple has four children; Richard Anderson, Nancy Ball, Doreen Roy and Sheila Cousins, and eight grandchildren. Ross enjoyed curling and the couple participated in lawn bowling, and belonged to the Brussels Lawn Bowling Club. Over the years, the couple have also held various positions at Belgrave United Church. Continued from page 10 demanded by the market must remain as farming activities. Farmers cannot make viable business decisions without knowing what the taxation rules are. Predators are making it increasingly difficult to make a profit from farming. The OFA will be asking the candidates if they support adopting measures to mitigate and/or more adequately compensate for wildlife damage on farms. The OFA also wants to see topics on food and farming included in Ontario school curriculum – would the candidate support this move to educate our youth on nutrition and farming practices to lead to a healthier population and economy? Members are invited to attend their local regional meetings to hear more about these issues and, of course, are always encouraged to spend time with federal and provincial elected officials to secure their support for the critical issues facing Ontario farm businesses. Another enjoyable evening was held at the Cranbrook Hall on Friday, Aug. 20 for the euchre party, hosted by Allan Edgar and Viola Adams. There were six-and-a-half tables at play. Winners were: share the wealth, Murray Hoover and Sharon Freeman; travelling lone hand, Sharon Freeman; ladies’ high, Myrna Burnett and Viola Adams; ladies’ low, Shirley Verstoep; lone hands, Marguerite Beirnes, Judy Hahn and Allan Edgar; men’s high, Adrian Verstoep and Helen Cullen; low man, Leslie Knight; lucky tally winners, Marion Harrison, Merle McIntosh, Mary Davidson, Neil Hatt, Ruth Shiell, Murray Hoover and Jean Dewar. The next euchre is Friday, Sept. 3 at 8 p.m. In the August 19 issue of The Citizen, a report on the Walton TransCan stated that the event’s coffee booth was operated by the Clinton Public Hospital Foundation. The booth was operated through a joint effort between the Clinton and Seaforth Public Hospital Foundations. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused. Input wanted Card party Our goof!
