The tour included visits to the Lambton Heritage Museum at Grand Bend, a tour of Point Edward and Sarnia around the parks and the chemical plants, an open-air show by Tommy Hunter, a wonderful cruise on the Due Du'or- leans boat down the St. Clair river to Courtright then back around Stag Island with a luscious break­ fast on board and finally to the Petrolia Discovery Oil Field where the old wooden “grasshoppers” and newer iron ones were pumping oil. The trip, the ladies say, was very educational. Kate Wilson and daughter Joan Merner of Bayfield and Gale Schmidt of Walkerton visited in Toronto with Valerie and Jody Merner. While they were there they attended the play “Cats” at Massey Hall and also saw the Blue Jay and Milwaukee ball game at the Dome. Mrs. Audrey Richmond of De­ troit, Michigan visited with her cousin Mrs. Dorothy McCauley on Monday afternoon, August 21. Guests at the home of Mrs. Glenna Stephens this week were her sister-in-law Mrs. Anna Camp­ bell and her nephew Fred and his wife Elma, all from Newark, New York. Carman and Ella Gwyn of Blyth hosted a surprise birthday party on Sunday, August 27 at the Callander Nursing Home, Brussels in honour of their aunt, Marion Letherland who celebrated her 76th birthday. The table was centred with a beautiful birthday cake made by Thelma Wilson of Blyth as well as many flowers from family and friends. There were 16 guests present from Blyth, Brussels, Port Albert, Ashfield, Kinbum, Auburn and Goderich. Marion thanked everyone for attending and was so pleased to see her family and friends.

Chiropractic clinic opens in Brussels The Chiropractic Care Centre is opening in Brussels on Tuesday, September 5. An Open House will be held on August 31 at 7 p.m. Dr. Jim Mason will be at the clinic Tuesday and Friday mornings and Thursday evenings to administer chiropractic treat­ ment. Dr. Mason opened the Chiropractic Care Centre in Lis- towel after practising in Toronto for five years. He had been consider­ ing opening another office in Brussels for some time as he felt there was a need in the community for chiropractic medicine. Residing just outside Wroxeter, he also saw the convenience for the surround­ ing areas. Chiropractic medicine, according to Dr. Mason, is based on normaliz­ ing and correcting the spine and associated nervous system. They also work on peripheral joints like the elbows and knees. Dr. Mason stresses the fact that he uses a different technique than what is normally associated with the treat­ ment. “I use an activator gun that eliminates the cracking and popp­ ing noises usually associated with chiropractic correction. This way there is not as much trauma involved,” says Dr. Mason. One half of the chiropractor’s fee is covered by OH1P. Other services administered at the Centre are Reflexology and THE BRUSSELS JR.
