Callander Nursing Home Nineteen children and 22 Cab- bage Patch kids participated in the recent Annual Cabbage Patch Party held at The Trailer.

Goderich Elevator earnings pick up Goderich Elevators Limited pre- sident, George Parsons, reported in a letter to shareholders that a strong performance in the second half of the company's fiscal year helped to rectify a first quarter loss. The company showed a net profit for the period of $1.33 per share compared to $.75 for the previous year. Improved earnings on invest- ments and the sale of a barge improved the company's position. One of the biggest areas of improvement was in the com- pany's handling of Ontario wheat which reached a record 6.2 million bushels. The wheat was received and shipped in a period of just over lOweeks which, Parsons says, is an indicator of the potential of the company's equipment and person- nel. Western grain receipts were down 30 per cent. The company reported a net income of $447,052 for the six- month period compared to $253, 332 in 1984.
