CLINTON 4824505 CLINTON NEWS-RECORD, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 1973--6, Clinton resident dies News of Bayfield By Milvena Erickson Reeve has asked that Bayfield Council members be reminded of a special Council meeting Thursday evening to discuss certain aspects of the official plan and a proposal for the removal of the Village's garbage to the Holmesville Land Fill Site. Although this is just a special meeting of council members, the public are welcome at any council meeting, A public meeting is being planned for the early part of December to consider changes in the Official Plan. ANNIVERSARY Tuesday evening, Nov. 20, Mr. and Mrs. Norm Talbot were honoured by their family at a dinner at the Ponderosa Steak House in London. The occasion being their 35 Wed- ding Anniversary (actual date• Nov. 26) All their family members were in attendance and in- cluded a daughter Nancy (Mr. and Mrs. Frank Barta), Wood- stock; and five sons, Mr. and Mrs. Bill Talbot, Mr. and Mrs. Doug Talbot and Mr. and Mrs. Les Talbot, all of Bayfield, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Talbot, St. Thomas and Mr. and Mrs. David Talbot, London. Following dinner, complete with a beautiful anniversary cake, the couple enjoyed a lovely evening get-together with their family at the home of their son David in London. Continued happiness is exten- ded to the couple. CORRECTION There is a mistake in an ar- ticle that appeared in the Clin- ton News-Record last week cap- tioned "Bayfield residents protest zoning, present petition" written by Milvena Erickson, The article contained the Bayfield Council news and made mention of a letter received from Jack Pounder and 25 residents on the north- east side of Highway 21 from Agnes St. South protesting the proposed changes from residen- tial to commercial. I would like the readers to know that the particular paragraph was not written by this correspondent. The paragraph stated "Currently, the Highway contains a mixed development of residential and commercial, including a hair- dressing salon, an electrical shop, a fruit stand and several other businesses" The paragraph was written by re-write as it passed the editors desk, and was not thoroughly researched, It tends to lead one to think that High- way 21 is full of commercial businesses. However, this is not the case. There is a hair- dressing salon in a residence which has been operating for 22 years, an electrical shop in a residence operating for 13 years, and as for the fruit stand, this is a seasonal operation by the children of the family who produce the fruit on their property. For over 40 con- tinuous years, family members have been selling the extras produced on this property. I was very disturbed by this article, because as a member of Bayfield Council I would not have written this particular paragraph knowing full well of permitted uses in Residential areas in the Land Use (Zoning) By-Law,- Milvena Erickson. POEM The following poem was com- posed by Christine Latimer age 13 of Toronto, and was printed in the "Sunday" November 4, and also read on CFRB Toronto by John Dolan. Christine is a granddaughter of Mrs. G.L. Knight of Louisa Street in Bayfield. Problem at Goblin's Ditch Once there lived at Goblin's Ditch A witch named WHO and one named WHICH They looked alike, and no one knew Which witch was WHICH and which was WHO. The scarecrows poor, the 'pum- pkins rich All asked each other, "Which is 1 ,-WhYVv ' i, How, can we tell between these two Just who is WHICH and which is WHO" But grandfather Owl, up. in his niche, Winked one big eye -- he knew each witch When they flew by as witches do, He'd call to WHICH and then to WHO. For, riding on a broomstick switch Witch WHO was just behind witch WHICH. They never changed, that's how he knew, Which witch was WHICH and which was WHO. BAZAAR Despite inclement weather, a very successful bazaar, bake sale and tea was reported by the Ladies Guild of Trinity Anglican Church held in the Parish Hall on Saturday after- noon, Miss Ella McKay of Goderich (formerly from Bayfield) who read tea-cups, added greatly to the entertain- ment of the afternoon.
