SPECIAL SPYS GOOD SHOW Thanks to the Lucan District Lions for sponsoring the circus last Wed', -sday evening. There was a "full tent" for the 6 p.m. show and the children really enjoyed it, It seemed the rides on the elephant during the in- termission were the most popular part of the show and many had to wait until after the show to have their turn as they already held their tickets. The magician was par- ticularly good and kept adults, as well as children, completely mystified. Of course, the trained poodles stole the hearts of everyone and the horses, while in much too confined a -e space, performed well. SECONDS & BLEMS BARN SIDING AND ROOFING $25.00 per sq.

WI enjoy bus jaunt Forty-five Lucan W.I. members and friends en- joyeda bus trip to "Tivoli Miniatures, near St, Catharines, on Tuesday, June 3rd. While the Miniatures were most in- teresting, the grounds were far from ready and members recommend that anyone planning this trip should wait another two weeks, or more. Following a delicious smorgasbord at the Prudholm Convention Centre our excellent driver, Peter McNaughton, took us on a scenic tour of Niagara Falls, and along the Gorge Drive to Niagara-on-the- Lake, where the ladies were "turned loose" for an hour's shopping. We returned via Hamilton, which we hit at rush hour, so again we had a short stop at a large Shop- ping Centre to let the traffic thin out. Then on for a quick snack at "Carl's" in Cam- bridge and thence home. The convener, Mabel Froats, thanked Mr. McNaughton and our guests for helping to make the trip so successful and Iva Hodgins thanked Mabel for all her work in connection with the trip. Rev. Ray Brewster led the service along with the hymns and choruses at Lucan Revival Centre. Miss Judy Henry told the children a story before taking them down to Junior Church. Speaking from Luke 13:18- 30, Mr. Brewster said "A very rich young ruler had an encounter with Jesus .and asked Him what he must do to inherit eternal life." He was told to sell all his possessions, distribute to the poor and he will have treasure in heaven and follow Christ. The ruler could not accept this. His wealth had a hold on him and kept him from having God in his life. God wants us to be blessed with money and material possessions as long as they don't possess us. If God calls us to give up anything in our life, He will bless us with something greater than those we had before, The ruler could not see this and was sorrowful because of what he was to give up, as he didn't realize the greater blessings ahead. Upcoming Events at Included were four cases of wilful damage with property damage amounting to $130 and two breakins with about $450 worth of property being stolen, The first of five accidents occurred Tuesday when a vehicle owned by Patricia McCormac, Granton, but,, with an unknown driver struck a parked vehicle on Granton's Main street owned by Paul Wallis, RB, Granton, Wednesday, Joseph Dewan, RR 3, Lucan and passengers Bill Vereyken, RR 2, Lucan and Dave Harigan, RR, 3, Lucan suf- fered minor injuries when the vehicle he was driving left the road near Clan- deboye.

Residents of Elm street, Langford Drive and Fair- view Place in Lucan are asking village council for immediate action on a dust problem in their areas. At Tuesday's regular meeting, council received a petition and this was backed later by a delegation headed by Russ Radcliffe. Radcliffe said residents questioned the good judgement of council in applying gravel and calcium annually. He added, "Paving is the only answer." He was told by reeve Ivan Hearn that Elm street was on the current five year road program and he hoped preliminary engineering work would be carried out this fall." The delegation also questioned the priority of street construction. Councillor Gary McFalls said, "This 'project was already planned four years ago for construction in 1980 and we hope this. can be Paper drive coming up Your correspondent called McGillivray Central School to check on further paper drives and was assured there would be another one in the fall, on Saturday, October 4.

Birthday• wishes were carried out." Reeve Hearn said when the street reconstruction does come up it would in- clude sidewalks, To this Radcliffe replied, "We don't need sidewalks. Hearn disagreed saying, "If you have new pavement without sidewalks mothers will push their baby buggies on the street and this is not safe. Sidewalks are a must with new roads." When the delegation left Radcliffe commented, "Your answer is not satisfactory. We will have to contemplate our next move." Reeve Hearn explained that only so much money is available for road work each year and 50 percent of the costs are paid by the Ontario Ministry of Transportation and Communications which must approve all projects. • Pete Sovereign suggested that each property owner would be glad to pay an additional 45'0! on their taxes-1 to get the streets in question paved. After the delegation left, councillors worked out rough costs of such an undertaking and determined the cost if done under local im- provements would be about $50 per foot frontage. At the same meeting, council referred tenders on the Beech street con- struction project to engineer Paul McIntyre for further study. A total of 10 bids were received. Lawyers Bob Benner and Don Hope attended the meeting and reviewed a land trade agreement between the estate of the late Erwin Scott and the Lucan Com- munity Centre 'Board. Council gave its approval.
