"definite possibil- ity" that the new liquor store here, now almost completed, will handle retail sales of beer and ale too, Huron MPP C. S. MacNaughton said this week, The MPP's statement indic- ated construction of a retail store by the Brewers' Ware- housing Co. will be postponed for several months at least. "ll is a Passibility that •the new liquor store facilities just about completed may offer combined ser vices for an interim period or as long as it takes to determine the potent- ial volume figures," Mr. Mac - Naughton said. The liquor store, at the cor- ner of Main and Wellington, is expected to open some time in June. A site was purchased at the corner of Main and George streets last fall by the brewers' company for a store and it in- dicated at that time that facili- ties would be erected soon, Contacted several weeks ago, however, company officials said their plans were "not de- finite" at the present tine. The operation here .may be similar to that in Grand Bend when both beer and liquor were sold out of the liquor control board building for some time until a separate beer store was constructed. e exefer EXETER, ONTARIO, MAY 2$, 1961 4 cafe Prics Per ,c9py 10csto* IN AWARD -.1".wwsowii,,IW4WW4W4441 HELP CAVEN CEI,EBRATE CENTENNIAL — Former rnembers helpedmake up an overflow crowd which joined in the celebration of Caven Presbyterian Church's centennial Sunday.

The car, travelling east on the Crediton road, passed a vehicle which had stopped at the intersection and went out of control on No. 2 sideroad, Usborne. of the outstanding men which Caven has contributed, to the nation including Hon. W. M. Martin, retired chief justice of Saskatchewan; the late Judge J. G. S. Stanbury of the Onta- rio Supreme CourC; the late Thomas Pryde, former 'Huron MPP; Hon. Donald Fleming, federal minister of finance; , and a number of leaders in 1civic and other walks of life, The church's minister, Rev. Samuel Kerr, who will conduct his final .service here next Sun- day, also shared in the tri- butes. He has been president of the South Huron Ministerial Ass'n for several years. Following the morning ser - vie, at which Mrs. John Go - man was soloist, the ladies of the congregation served a smorgasbord dinner to the cen- tennial guests during which re- miniscences continued and ac- quaintances renewed. They also served tea following the afternoon service. Rev. Young, well-known in the area having served at Hen- sel for 4 number of years, paid tribute 'to the pioneer fam- ilies of the church and those who faithfully carried on its traditions, Among those he re- called was the late Henry Strang, a member of the ses- sion for 50 years, The remarkable material changes which have taken place over the past century have not necessarily brought progress for mankind. Mr. Young as- serted in Jiis morning mes- sage, "Like • spoiled child" "Our generation is like a spoiled child with its .arms full of toys, yet as unhappy as a boy crying in the corner." Today's challenge is: "To what purpose are we going to put these tremendous material things we have been given," The automobile is killing hundreds of people on the high- ways every week. Television is being used "just to give non- sense and foolishness a wider hearing." The whole of man- kind is paralyzed with fear over the atom. — Please turn to page 2 Police radar nets over 30 A total of 23 charges for speeding were laid by Exe- ter and district OPP officers over the weekend as the re- sult of radar "traps" in the area.
