Lockridge BUTCHER WiFkgInun in the. Burke Electric store the other the Donald Ilse Hardware store. Far us Alterations have been going on in Ono of the thing!. that intrigued day was the clock radios, which, ac* the past few weeks Jack Alexander- has been busy clearing out the bins in the back of the store to make more room for shoppers, The new arrangement will add about twenty feet to the length of the store. cording to Frank Burke, are selling like hot cakes. Apparently alarm clocks are going out as walter-uppers and clock radios are coming in. And we must admit that it would be vriore plea,aant to awaken to the strains of sweet music, even if it is interspersed with a few commercials, than to be jerked out of the arms of Morpheus by the raucous sounds of an alarm clock, The principle of clock radios is fair- ly simple, but we trust that they give you complete instructions with each unit, because there are enough dials and knobs to confuse anyone who isn't mechanically inclined, like us. From what we can recall, the procedure Is something like this: You set the alarm dial for seven o'clock-if you're an early riser, unlike us, At the ap- pointed time the radio switches on automatically, playing aforementioned sweet music for ten minutes. If that doesn't work there's an alarm built in which rings at ten past seven and continues ringing for five minutes, after which the radio goes back to music. By this time most average sleepers will, it is hoped, be awaken- ed, but for those who are tartly there is further provision. If the radio isn't turned off, the alarm will sound again in ten minutes, and will continue to go off at ten minute intervals, with music in between, until something is done about it. A further refinement is added in the form of an outlet for a bed lamp. Supposing you would like to read for an hour before going to sleep. Simply turn on the light and adjust one of the knobs. For an hour you read with the light on and the radio playing. Then the light goes out, the music fades, and the radio is set to play again at seven in the morning, It all sounds like a wonderful idea to us, We bet it was dreamed up by one of those early morning disc joc- keys. 0 - 0 - 0 If you are one of those parents who worries about their children read- ing comic books, perhaps the classic comics are the answer. Intead of deal- ing with the exploits of Hopalong Cassidy and rick Tracy, these books are comic stories from the great class- ical novel, put out specially for children. According to Jack McKibbon, who stocks these comics, the stories are growing in popularity with children as well as parents, which just goes to strew that you never can tell. We would have thought that the children would avoid them like the seven-year itch, Jack also reports that there are quite a number of titles in the series and that these titles are changed from time to time, so that there are lots to choose from. - 0 - 0 The Edighoffer store is in the pro- cess of getting a new front this week, and it is hoped that the work will be done by Christmas. The workmen are currently putting on the wire mesh in preparation for the new material, The new front will be of perma- stone, and should add considerably to the appearance of the main, street. Twenty-five tables were in play at the card party in the Community Hall last Monday night, Mr. and Mrs, Wm. Merkley, Mr. and Mrs, Ernie Merk- ley, Mr, and Mrs. Thomas Abraham and Mr, and Mrs, Harry Mulvey were in charge. Prize winners were; for euchre, ladies, Mrs. Ivan Haskins, Mrs, Tom- my Parker; men, Bill Taylor and Jus- tin Will; special, Boyd Marshall; solo, Um Emerson Rickert and Mr, Wil- fred Deitrieh, Congregational Supper The United Church held a congre- gational supper in the Community Hall last Wednesday evening. After the tables were cleared away, Rev, Harold and Mrs, Wept conducted games for young and old and a very enjoyable time *as spent by all. Honor Newlyweds On Friday evening a large crowd assembled in the Community Hall, in honour of Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Dettman, newlyweds. Miss Audrey Scott read an addless and the couple were presented with a chesterfield and chair. Evelyn and Kenneth both thanked their friends, Songsters or- chestra of Clifford provided rnilsic for dancing and lunch was served. Many Friends Here The late Mrs. Wm. Mundell had a great many friends in this community who regretted her passing. During the many years they lived 'on the farm, west of Belmore, she was al- ways a good neighbour, was active in church and Women's Institute work and was always willing to do her share. We would just like to add this tribute to her and to offer our sym- pathy to the family and relatives. W. I December Meeting The next Women's Institute meet- ing will be held in the Community Hall on December 9th, at 2.30. The Bel- more school children will present-the Christmas message in story and song. A cordial invitation is extended to all the ladies of the community to attend. Personals Mr. and Mrs. Ira Dahms, of Mild- may, visited with Mr. and Mrs. Elmer Zinn after church on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Leslie Bolt and Mr. and Mrs. Cecil Moffat (nee Marguerite Brerton) of Watford, visited Mr. and Mrs. Fraser Haugh and family recent- ly. Mr. and Mrs, Elmer Jeff ray and Margaret, were guests of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Wood and Kay, on Fri- day. Mrs, F. Johann and Wilfred and Mrs. E. Zinn, spent Thursday with Mr. and Mrs. Wilfred Walker and family, near Belgrave. We regret to report that Mrs, John White is a patient in Wingham Gen- eral Hospital having fallen and brok- en her ankle. Mrs. Alvin Mundell is also a patient there, having under- gone an operation last Saturday. Their many friends offer sympathy and best wishes for as speedy a recovery as possible. John Kennedy came home from the hopital the end of the week and is able to get around a little on crtuches, with a cast on his ankle. Mr, and Mrs. Andrew Davidson visited Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Abraham after .church on Sunday, Friendship Club Mr, and Mrs. Jack Ferguson were the host and hostess to the November meeting of the McIntosh Friendship Club. They were assisted by Mr. and Mrs, Allan White. The presidents con- ducted the devotions, in which Rus- sell Sewers read the lesson and Jack Ferguson read an interesting article on the i sharing of anothers sorrow and burdens. Business followed. It was moved to make the December meeting a child- ren's party for the families of the members. Allan and Shirley White lead in interesting and amusing games and contests, Much enjoyed refresh-. ments were served. Cameron Taylor voiced the thanks of ,the club to the two couples responsible for the ar- rangements and hospitality of the evening., The saying 'of the Mizpah benedic- tion brought the evening to a close. Attend Conference During the past week-end Cameron Taylor, Roy Gowdy and Rev. Harold West, of the Belmore-Mildmay charge of the United Church, attended the Bruce Presbytery Conference of Faith and Evangelism, et the Five Oaks training centre, near Paris. Forty-five clergy and key laymen of the .Preaby- tery spent two whole days in very concentrated discussion, talks and meditation arid worship, planning for a three-year evangeliatie program for the Bruce Presbytery. Outstanding laymen and ministers led thoughts along practical lines and a compre- hensive program of practical methods' of evangelism were worked out over the week-end, Those who attended were enthusiastic in their appraisal Of the worthwhilenesa of the week-end and have now -the 'hard yet happy task of applying the results of the Conference in their own charges and SEE THE GRADS WRIST WATCH $7.95 HASELOROVE'S SMOKE SHOP 1a4; high single, fo, Crawford, A4; 'Wks high tri,Ple, Brown, -514; Men's high triple, B, 10.
