I finally won the battle, though, and when the sharpener was intact, I solved another problem.

Jo&Doerr e w K.: Photo by Jack-Doerr Paul Newman and Steve McQUeen were about to rescue me from a burning building the other morning, when we were interrupted by a strange buzzing sound. As the vision of Paul and Steve faded, the noise became louder, and I realized it was coming from my apartment, I gave my alarm clock an Regional event held at Kirkton The South Huron Perth United Church Women Regional meeting was held in Kirkton Wednesday, October 20, Mrs. Fred Bertrand, Mrs. Bob Ratcliffe, Mrs. Ewart Crago and Mrs. Allan Eveleigh were in charge of the worship service. The Girls Junior Choir of Kirkton sang "This is My Father's World" accompanied by Mrs. Earl Stephen at the organ. Mrs. Fred Pridham, Mitchell had an excellent display of literature and introduced books and material that was available. Mrs. Fred Parkinson and Mrs. John Rodd, Woodham presented a Puppet Show entitled "If God Should Speak." Refreshments were served by the Kirkton ladies, after which a sing song was led by Mrs. Louis Rutlig, St. Marys. A program presentation was given by Mrs. Norman Amos on the Revised Committee Headings slate of Officers from the Presbyterial. A skit entitled "Tell Me Doc- tor" was presented by the Zion West ladies. The meeting came to a close with Mrs. Fred Parkinson show- ing some beautiful slides while Mrs. Lorne Hun, Zion sang "The Lord's Prayer." Audience thrilled by organ recital About 150 organ enthusiasts were treated to an ex- traordinarily fine concert at the high school, Wednesday night, when organist Joe Carlo per- formed on a Lowrey symphonic theatre organ. After hearing Mr. Carlo's performance, it was not hard to understand why he is acclaimed on both sides of the Atlantic as a musician. A skilled artist, with a wide repertoire of music, he enraptured his audience with everything from Bach to Rock. Mr. Carlo, orignally from Guelph was brought to Exeter by the local Heritage Foundation and the Rutledge Music Com- pany, London. His RCA records were on sale at the event and many patrons went home carrying one personally autographed by the organist. Four of Mr, Carlo's recording were given away as door prizes and went to Mrs. Fred Brock, Bruce Hogg, Marion Bissett and Robert Southcott. Bill Huntley was the MC for the occasion, and coffee was served by the Heritage Foundation members after the concert. A decorator's dream ... the newest in fabrics ... a style for every decor. angry shove, which is my daily ritual, the buzzing continued, By then, I was awake enough to read the time 20 after 3. That was a little early for the alarm, Then I listened more closely; the racket sounded like a small buzz saw and seemed to be coming from one of the other rooms. Slipping out of bed, I followed the mysterious, relentless buzz, I crept through the shadowy living room and into the dark kitchen, stealing quietly until I ran into the table. I paused for a moment to become oriented; the sound was coming from the direction of my desk under the window. What could it be? The answer came suddenly. I switched on the light, and there it was my battery-operated pencil sharpener, busily sharpening air. You see, the sharpener worked well and kept fine points on all my pencils, until the batteries wore down a couple of months ago, I replaced the old batteries with new ones, and then I couldn't stop the thing. It buzzed con- tinually whether or not a pencil was fed into it. The problem was unique; these days we usually contend with gadgets that won't work instead of ones that won't quit.Neverthe- less it was irritating, First, I removed the batteries, thinking I placed them upside- down, but when I inserted them again, the sharpener took off. Then I adjusted the lid and the cutting device, to no avail. Next I adopted the theory that the batteries would eventually wear themselves down. An endurance test developed between the sharpener and my nerves. The sharpener won. With some experimentation, I discovered the buzz stopped when the box was laid on its side. However, the loose-fitting lid opened, spilling the shavings on the floor and allowing the whittler to slip, Benson Tuckey showed some very interesting slides taken on a trip to Africa at the regular meeting of Hurondale WI Wed- nesday evening October 27. These slides revealed a great deal about the people, soil and animals, but Mr. Tuckey remarked that the people do not like you to see the poorer side of their living conditions. The speaker was introduced by Mrs, L. Ballantyne and he was thanked and presented a gift by Mrs, Wm, Kernick. The roll call for the meeting was responded to by about 40 members and was "Name your family home and present oc- cupant." A report of the rally at Dash- wood was given by Mrs. L. Ballantyne. The motto "What we make of our homes is more important than what our homes are made of", was very ably commented on by Mrs. Wm. Dougall. Mrs, Laura Sillery gave the current events, A dedication service for the school bell which has been mounted at the front of the Usborne Central School will be held following the Armistice day service on Monday, November 8 at 11 o'clock . The program for this service is being arranged by Elimville WI. It is hoped a good number of members of all concerned will be present. I leaned the box against the edge of the desk at a 60 degree angle. The lid didn't budge; the whittler didn't slip, and the buzzer didn't sound.If I wanted to sharpen a pencil, I merely sat the gadget upright; otherwise it remained blissfully quiet. The other night I must have inadvertently shifted the box. Why it remained silent until 3:20 a.m. is a mystery. Feeling somewhat disgruntled, I turned the sharpener on its side and crawled back into bed, But no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't return to the scene of the rescue. Now never know whether Paul Newman and Steve McQueen rescued me from the fire! The Windows in Your Life No window is average. Each has its own characteristics. And every window can be beautiful.
