They were pronounced dead at the scene by coroner Dr, R. S. Shearer, London and D. J. As we enter a new year, we would like to take you back for a moment to recall some of the highlights of 1968. Possibly most people would consider the Mail Strike, from July 17 to August 8, was one of the most important happenings, and that it would have inconvenienced most people. The people of Lucan were most fortunate, as the Post Office was not closed, and local mail was available as usual. London and Exeter papers were brought in by truck. For a Centennial project the Lucan Lions Club had renovated the old ball diamond on Beech Street, and it is now kept in condition for use of picnics, as well as ball games. This year the World War I German gun, which had been presented to Lucan, was cleaned, and moved, by the Lions Club to a place of honour on the ball diamond, now re-named "Centennial Park." The new Montreal Bank building was at last completed, giving a much improved look to Main Street. It was with much regret that the people of Lucan learned that the Rev. E. 0. Lancaster and the Rev. G. W. Sach, were to leave Lucan. The Rev. R. A. Carson B.A., L.Th., took Mr. Lancaster's place at Holy Trinity Church, and the Rev. W. C. Tupling B.A., B.D., S.T.M. took Rev.

A fruit drink, turkey, cranberries, turnips, and plum pudding were served.

Before Christmas, many church groups entertained us in the auditorium with Christmas programs. The Salvation Army not only put on a program but also, gave each resident a gift of oranges, apples, tangerines, grapes, chocolate bars, raisins and candy. On December 20 we had our own Christmas party with a splendid program followed by a Christmas tree and St. Nick. (Mrs. McFarlane's gift was a nice pin and mine a pair of nylons.) I have me; in with a number of bridge players, so have enjoyed some good, games since coming in December 4. Everyone is very friendly and seldom discuss aches and pains. Personally I feel the McCormick Home is a wonderful place, if you have no one to look after you and you are unable to longer face the responsibilities of looking after a large home. Emery of the Lucan OPP detachment was the investigating officer. Damages to the two vehicles totalled $3,000. Mr. Toohey is survived by brothers Patrick and Tim, both of Biddulph Township, and James (Brother Anthony) of New Melleroy, Des Moines, Iowa; and sisters Mrs. Bridget Lamphier, and Loretta (Sister Regina) of St. Joseph's Order, both of London, Mrs. Toohey, the former Julia which had so nearly collapsed, took on a new lease of life under the leadership of Mrs. Frank Hardy Sr. Many groups participated in sponsored walks during the year.

Two choirboys from Lucan's Holy Trinity Church, Peter and Jeff Culbert were chosen to participate in a week-long training program arranged and sponsored by St. Paul's Anglican Cathedral of London, the Cathedral's organist and choirmaster, Malcolm Wechsler, being in charge. The boys assembled at Gorrie, December 30. Arrangements had been made for them to be billeted in homes for the week.

Lucan is almost bursting at the seams, as every house and apartment is occupied, and all the stores on Main Street are open for business.

It would appear that the houses of the new sub-division will not be ready prematurely to the need. morning service was in the charge of the Rev. R. W. Scott of London, in the absence of the Rev. W. C. Tupling. His sermon, "Divine Provision for the New Year," took the 23rd Psalm in detail, as a good principle to live by. THE HI C Members of the Ili C met in the C.E.
