Crediton 234.6382 By PAUL SALMON Mrs. Mary Trainor, a resident of our village, has a family of which she can be intensely proud. Unfortunately, the achievements of her children bring a mixture of joy and sadness. Her daughter, Pam, left on June 14 for summer employment at the Frontier Lodge in Elliot Lake, a small community about 400 miles north of our area. Then in September, Pam will again have to put a great distance between herself and the rest of the Trainor family as she studies travelling and tourism services at Sir Stanford Flemming College in Peter- borough. As a way of saying "bon voyage" to this brave gal, a group of Pam's friends and members of her family congregated at this reporter's home for a surprise party held hi , Pam's honor. At that party, held on the night of Saturday, June 12, we presented Pam with an AM FM radio which we hope she can put to good use on those long northern nights. On Sunday, June 13, Pam hosted a barbecue and her brother, Rick, from Hamilton, and sister, Sherri, from London, joined other the members of the Lucan UCW.

Members felt there was a need for this project as many people cannot eat fried food, or drink coffee or pop. Some discussion took place regarding catering for a wedding on August 7, with final plans being left with the com- mittee, headed by Mrs. Sheridan Revington. members of the family and some of Pam's closest friends in wishing Pam the best. Pam's brother, Earl, was also present after having recently returned from a trip out West. Also at Pam's barbecue a birthday was announced, that of Barb Jeromkin, who turned 18 on June 15. We only hope that Barb will use her newly acquired privileges with discretion!
