This month
We welcome more readers this month. For the first
time Village Squire will be entering homes in the Sea -
forth and Brussels area. We hope you will enjoy the
magazine. If you are reading the magazine for the first
time and would like to subscribe you may do so by
filling out the enclosed form on page 23. Incidently,
call it inflation if you will but the subscription rate has
gone up to $1.00 per year. So many people were send-
ing money through the mail for subscriptions and 75
cents is an awkard amount for mailing so we rounded
it off.
The annual Colborne Township Christmas Country
Fair is just around the corner and you'll find details
on page 8.
Antiques are big business these days with the value
of old furniture and such increasing by about 10 per
cent per year. But nowhere is it bigger business than
at Harrison's Stone House Antiques, between Clinton
and Seaforth on Highway 8. The story appears on page
7.
A beautiful old theatre stood in danger of desttuction
at many times during the past year in Blyth. The story
of the building which would snake a modern "Perils of
Pauline" thriller is on page 13.
Our What's Going On feature is not included in this
month's issue because we did not receive enough inform-
ation of activities in the area. If you know of up-
coming activities of interest to our readers please let
us know.
