Festival’s Young Company held Thursday and Friday last week. In the
clown show, “The thing that happened in front of a lot of People’’ the

People” inhabitants of the land dealt with in the play, sneak over the
hill.

How quickly the summer is
fading can be seen in the fact that

mounts of building permits and the
types of construction that require
permits.
Council adopted the amend
ments after meeting with building
inspector Eugene McAdam who
this is the final week of production
for the plays in the main repertory
season of the Blyth Festival. With
the final performances this week
end, many now-familiar faces
around main street will disappear,
at least until next spring. The
Festival still has nearly a month to
run, however with its final produc
tion of Cake Walk which opens next
Tuesday. Attendance so far rates
th is as one of the be st seasons in
history, says Brenda Doner, Gen
eral Manager.

This is the 25th edition of the
Huron Pioneer Thresher Reunion
in Blyth and as part of the
celebrations, The Citizen will issue
a special edition. We’re looking for
pictures both from the Thresher
Reunion itself or from the pioneer
years of harvesting. We will copy
your photo and return it to you. We
can make useof either black and
white or colour photographs but we
would ask that they be in focus.
We’d also be delighted to talk to
people who have memories from
the early years of the Reunion or
memories of harvest bees or trips
west on harvest excursions.

said the revised by-law met his
approval. Council had been con
cerned earlier that the by-law still
contains reference to a fee for
inspecting the set-up of a mobile
home. The village has not allowed
mobile homes in the village for
many years. Council was worried
this opened the door to mobile
homes being set up
Mr. McAdam said that the
official plan of the village super-
ceded the building by-law and
since the official plan makes no
provision for mobile homes unless
a mobile home park is established,
council doesn’t have to worry.
The amendments say that no
building permit is required for
roofing, eavestroughing or re
placement of windows. No permit
is required for alterations of less
than $1,500 in value unless a
structural change is involved. A
building permit will be required for
