A unique shopping spree took place at Christmas and Country in Blyth Wednesday night when about 20
members of the “Sunshine Girls” from Brucefield and Kippen United Church had the store all to
themselves. Storeowners Marilyn Forbes [left] and Bev Elliott [right] show Gayle Pepper from the
Sunshine Giris some of the tree ornaments in the store. The group has a shopping spree annually.

Crowd 'liberal'in bidding
Continued from page 1
Hansen - Man in Motion” collec
tor’s plate, donated by Mid-
daugh’sCollectiblesin Clinton, for
$160, a proud momento of a
meeting Ron had with Mr. Hansen
at Parkwood Hospital in London
last Thursday, just before coming
home for the weekend.
Hullett Councillor Harvey Ste
wart had his 15-year-old beard
shaved off in public after raising
pledges of $440 for the sacrifice,
while a “Chinese Auction” took
care of Ralph De Weerd’s crown
ing glory for $410. Dave Overboe’s
public shaving only brought in $25,
which is probably why the same
amount is all the Londesboro Lions
could get in auctioning off a
beardless Dave to play Santa Claus
at Aileen Salverda’s Christmas
party.
“Before the auction began, Mr.
Riddell asked the crowd to be very
‘liberal’ in its bidding, and people
certainly opened their hearts and
their wallets for us,’’ said Mr.
Overboe. He promised to have a
complete list of all bidders and
prices read for next week’s Citizen.
In other weekend action, the
Londesboro Women’s Institute
Fashion Show on Friday evening
brought in more than $1,700 after
expenses, while the41-tablemen’s
euchre tournament on Friday
raised more than $1,500; and 16
Local skaters
tables in the ‘teen’ euchre tourna
ment on Saturday added another
$300.
Winners of the men’s euchre
were Ron Ferguson and Don
McAdam, both of Blyth, while the
runners-up were Bill Millson and
Doug Riley. Lori Leibold of Blyth
and her partner Kim Rathwell were
the teen champions, while three
teams tied for the runner-up
position.
The weekend wound up with a
family dance in the packed school
gym, at which the keys to the new
van were officially presented to
Ron Nesbitt. From beginning to
end, it has been seven weeks which
will never be forgotten by anyone
who was involved, a magnificent
beginning to the Christmas sea
son.
