Valentine's Day
On Wednesday, February 12, the
U.C.W. met in the church base
ment for a Valentine pot luck noon
luncheon.
Helen Craig leader of the Roses
of the Copper Contest had the
basement decorated in the Valen
tine Hearts. The tables were done
in the red and white cloths, with an
assortment of Valentine candies at
each setting.
After the singing of Grace every
one enjoyed sampling the many
different casseroles from the smor
gasbord table followed by deli
cious desserts. Then the dishes
were done by the Daisies side of
the copper contest before the meet

sung. Margery Huether was

Hymns “Jesus Loves Me” was
sung. Marjory read the hymn,
“Love, Joy and Peace”, then closed
devotions with prayer.
Dorothy Sholdice gave a very
enlightening topic on the different
meanings of Valentine's Day,
describing many different ways it
is celebrated. She read an article on
no strings attached, closing with a
Special Day poem. Gloria Love
conducted a couple of very inter
esting Valentine contests.
Business was in charge of Marie
McGavin. Minutes were approved
as read by Doreen Hackwell. Roll

verse with I-ove. In the correspon
dence a couple of thank you cards

Couple honoured
at social evening
Neighbours of the ninth and
boundary and friends of Roy and
Margery Huether gathered at the
home of Emerson and Phyllis
Mitchell on Friday evening, Feb.
14 to enjoy a social evening with
them as they have moved into their
new home in Seaforth. We will see
Roy back helping at the farm and
we hope Margery will find time to
be back among us, as she has been
so willing to help out.
The evening was spent playing
cards and visiting. Phyllis com
posed and read an address to Roy
and Margery and they were pre
sented with a vase of carnations
along with a signed card and a
donation. Margery and Roy both
gave fitting replies. Steven and
Kathy Huether of Toronto also
attended.
An enjoyable evening was com
pleted with a delicious lunch
served by hostess and friends.
that? His own Conservative party is
the one currently in power, undeni
ably responsible for the political
decisions and policies of the last
few years that are certainly partly
to blame for the current protests.
I thought people in this country
had a right to stand up for them
selves and their cause, without
being denied and denounced,
scorned and rebuked, especially
when they are right. The Prime
Minister perhaps perceives their
presence as a blemish on the other
wise wholesome scenario that he
wishes to revel in. It is my concern
that, by his response, he is going to
ostracize and infuriate the good
intentions of those involved with
the current agricultural stand. What
I have seen lately of his attitude is
definitely a cause for concern.

THE EDITOR,
The Prime Minister has undertak
en to make a campaign style tour of
prime Ontario locations, highlight
ing of course positive, prospering
business sites. They must be diffi
cult to find. He is being greeted at
every site by protestors, expressing
their legitimate concerns about the
state of the economy, the serious
ness of lost jobs, their anger and
worry. He is also meeting many
dairy and chicken farmers, along
with representatives from related
support groups. Their intention is
to show their unified stand, that in
the international G.A.T.T. negotia
tions, they do not want to have the
stability of their supply manage
ment system bartered away. The
Canadian system is the envy of
both European and American farm
ers, but not the politicians.
It is the response of the Prime
Minister to these farmers that con
cerns me. He is revelling in the
adoration of the school children he
meets, strategically primed that
they are going to see someone of
importance. If they had an ounce of
insight they might perceive it was a
dubious honour. As for the
protestors and the placard carrying
farmers, he is showing an unprece
dented callous ignorance of their
presence and their concerns, even
to the point of labelling them
“politicized hooligans”. He is also
grossly out of line in blaming the
current unrest on the opposing
political parties. How can he think
