The urge to read sometimes can’tbe ignored when you’re surrounded by books as these three girls were at
the Blyth Festival’s annual book sale at Memorial Hall Saturday. Shawna Walker, Erin Roulston and
Tammy Walker took time out to sample the merchandise. The event, Saturday and Sunday, raised money
for Festival activities.

Last Wednesday, Grant, Pat and
David Sparling attended a recep

suite at Queen’s Park, hosted by
Lieutenant Colonel Hardy. The
purpose of the reception was to
honour members of the Ontario
Student Debating Union, and
especially the 1988 winners in the
debating tournament held last
month in Toronto.
We are proud to report that
David Sparling wasone of these
winners.
Lieutenant Governor Lincoln
Alexander has a special interest in
the art of debate, as have his
predecessors.
The Sparlings were fortunate
that the legislative assembly was in
progress, as they saw MPP’s

heard the bells ringing calling
them to the House, where a vote on
a bill was about to be taken.
