Falls into glass, youth cuts arm David Weller, 16-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Weller, had a painful injury lately. He accidently slipped on the floor, in his home. He auto- matically put his hand out to steady himself, but his hand went right through the glass in the door cutting him badly. His mother was called honie from the restaurant and had him rushed to St. Joseph's Hospital, where a number of stitches were necessary to close the wounds. Being his right arm, he was away from school for a few days. MUSCULAR DYSTROPHY The Lucan WI will again spon- sor Muscular Dystrophy in this district. Those wishing to con- tribute to this worth while pro- ject, will find canisters inmost of the prominent places of busi- ness in the village. The basement of Holy Trinity Anglican Church last Wednes- day was probably the busiest place in the whole village for the Ladies Guild catered a hot turkey dinner to between 650 and 700 people, from as far away as Detroit, Windsor, Ridgetown and St. Thomas. Though the dinner was sche- duled from 5 to 8 pm the crowd began arriving by 4:30 and some were still eating after 9 pm. The congregation is fortunate in having such a large basement, for the fowl was carved beneath the Parish Hall and the vege- tables cooked beneath the ves- try, leaving the large kitchen for serving and dish washing. The ladies are grateful to so many men who assisted. A spe- cial thanks goes to the junior choir members who served, carried fowl and vegetables, as well as washed dishes.

DOBBS MOTORS LTD I get a few fan letters, About half of them are from dear, sweet, intelligent people who tell me they read 'the column faithfully, and like it. About a quarter of them are om mtitton,headed, wrong- minded, opinionated people who read the column faithfully and disagree with my politics, lan- guage and philosophy. The other quarter is made up of frantic chairmen of the program com- mittees for various s er vice clubs, wanting to know if I'll speak to their group on July 14th. The answer to the last one is always no. I spoke to a service club once, and swore I'd never do it again. I have never had such an ignorant audience. After spending a week pre- paring a speech, and driving fifty miles on a winter night, after a hard day's work, I was asked anxiously by the presi- dent if I could "keep it down to ten minutes or so." About half the members were half-oiled and two or three went to sleep while I was being intro- duced. This is about standard. The president and secretary kept looking at their watches. Before the ritual "thank you" eight or ten members had slunk out. The president apologized, "they hafta go curling." The minute the vote of thanks (in which the mover called me Mr. Wiley, the famous colum- nist) ended, the club came to life with tigerish intensity, and I sat there listening for three- quarters of an hour to them quibbling about whether they should spend fifty bucks on a do- nation to boys' hockey, which would get them a picture and a half a column in the local paper, or twenty-five bucks on a dona- tion to a scholarship fund, which would get them a paragraph. Guess which won. However, as you have long since guessed, this experience has nothing to do with what I'm going to talk about. What I started out to say was that we had a switch this week. My wife got a fan letter. It was a lovely letter — warm kind, friendly, intelligent, and utterly mistaken. Mrs. Joe Morgan of AilsaCraig won $25, Mrs. Roy Hamilton -and Mrs. Jack Steacy of Lucan and Mr. P. D. Vahey of RR 2 Denfield (formerly of Lucan). won a two dollar voucher each. 216 MAIN ST., EXETER 235-1250 Ammon ..... minimiummulai lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll monemmumummiummulmm lllllllllllllllllllllll m llllllllllll lumen, lllll minium lllllll mum llllllllllllllll a SUPER BINGO WINNERS The following super bingo winners received their bingo cards at the Lucan IGA store.
