The chairman of the Klompen Feest Committee, Bert Greidanus, noted they are very pleased the festival did not have to be stopped for this, their 10th anniversary year. With the extra work involved in running a Friday night program, such as printing and selling extra tickets, and booking entertain­ ment, the committee has decided to hold its events just on Saturday, with the church service on Sunday. Although the committee had decided to disband if they did not have 15 interested persons out at their last meeting, they received the needed support shortly after the meeting, and will therefore continue with the festival. “We’ve got quite a few people who have committed themselves,” Mr. Grei­ danus said. The committee would still appre- 524-2773 1 600-265-5503 ciate any assistance from those who would like to help with the festival. Even though plans are now well underway, and the organizers are getting the sub-committees into place, Mr. Greidanus noted, “Of course, we can always use more help for the committees.” Pets save lives Recent studies in California have confirmed that elderly or handi­ capped people with pets are health­ ier than others. Lonely people easily get depress­ ed. There are many instances where a pet to care for and to talk to lifted the depression. The California study also showed that lonely couples quarreled less after getting a pet. Cockatiels are ideal for such a purpose. One can talk to them and before long they will talk back. As Christmas is approaching children should consider a pet for aging or lonely parents. Adrian Vos of Blyth has a selection of cockatiels for just such a purpose. He is ready to talk and advise with no obligation.
