"YOU GET A DILLY OF A DEAL AT DITTY'S"
BILL O'SHEA
Licenced Mechanic
I'll be 45 this week. It's
one of those rather decisive
birthdays, like 13, and 21
and 30. Only 10 yearsbefore
I'll be middle-aged. A good
time to sum up.
One thing that strikes me
is the amount of junk afellow
can collect in such a brief
span. I came into the world
without a stitch or a nickel.
And in only four and a half
decades, I have acquired a
number of stitches, about 400
nickels, a house with two
mortgages, a car with 12
payments to go, two teen-
agers to put through univer-
sity, and a wife currently
talking up the glories of an
automatic dishwasher.
Not to mention a household
of furniture that's all due to
be replaced, a basement full
of empty beer bottles, a tool-
shed full of rusty tools and
broken bicycles, and an attic
full of black squirrels.
But I have no complaints
about life. I was the runt of
the litter in our family, and
I've grown into a magnificent
physical specimen, towering
five foot eight on hot days,
and tipping the scales at a
strapping 138 in my winter
overcoat.
And what a beating that
meagre machine has taken in
45 years! I've been sea-sick
and air-sick and love-sick.
I've rolled over in a car,
crashlanded in an aircraft,
and smashed into a steel
bridge at top speed on my
bike. I've been beaten into
unconsciousness by a gang
of Germans, and hit with
everything from a telephone
to a plate of roast beef by
my wife. Yet there's hardly
a scratch on me. Outwardly.
I've broken fingers and
toes and nose (three times).
I've had hemmorholds and
hangovers. I've had my scalp
laid open by a hockey stick
and a horseshoe. I've had
measles and mumps and TB
and the trots, scarlet fever
and bursitis and pink eye
and dysentry.
And yet, amazingly, the old
carcass presses on. Sight
and hearing are sound as a
bell though smelling is gone
completely. Appetite is un-
impaired, and the old guts
can handle any thing but
broken glass. Hair and teeth
are thinning and have chang-
ed color, but are still orig-
inal models.
Endurance isn't what it
used to be. I couldn't run 200
yards at top speed if the
devil himself were after me,
with a red-hot pitchfork. But
he rarely chases us Sunday

Jim Macintosh could not be
made, the Scouts still had
their own activities during
the evening.
Leroy Maguire was boost-
ed to the position of Troop
Leader and Jerry Freeman
and John Blom were elevated
to Patrol Leaders.
First Class Scout badges
were presented to Maguire
and Freeman.
The activities took place
at the Scout Hall grounds and
several parents and friends
of the boys were on hand.
At the close, hot dogs and
hot chocolate were served to
all present, ably prepared
and served by the Scouts at
a camp fire.
Moody and Carling ex-
pressed sincere apprecia-
tion for the support shown
to the boys by the Lions Club
and their parents.

and elbow length sleeves,
accented with ruffles of lace.
A white satin band held her
full shoulder-length veil. She

denia, pink Sweetheart roses
and stephanotis.

the bride's two sister s,
Misses Jane and Susan as
senior and junior brides-
maids, were gowned alike
in floor-length dresses of
pink nylon chiffon over taf-
feta, with matching head-
pieces and short gloves.
They carried cascadesof pink
snapdragons and white shas-
ta daisies.
