On Monday, Nov. I the weekly euchre party was held in Bainton’s Art
Gallery. The high scores went to Evelyn Christensen (for the second week
in a row) and Jean Nethery. The most Ione hands were earned by Jean
Plaetzer and Charlie Bromley, while the low scores went to Effie McCall
and Ruth Jardin.
Everyone is welcome to attend the card party held every. Monday night at
8 p.m. in Blyth.
After enjoying the beautiful weather beforehand, Tuesday, Nov. 2
reminded us of what can occur this time of the year. Due to the heavy
downfall of heavy wet snow numerous school closures were announced on
the radio. In our area we were very lucky that our hydro had not been
effected as in Grey where they went without hydro for five days.
The first night of lost heir was to be held on Wednesday, Nov. 3 but due
to the nasty weather we had been experiencing it was cancelled. Plan to
attend at the Art Gallery at 8 p.m. every Wednesday night for lost heir.
SENIOR’S DINING PROGRAM
On Friday, Nov. 6 Blyth Anglican Church hosted 37 people for the town
and Country Homemakers monthly meal. A mouth watering luncheon made
up of tender perch, oven roasted potatoes, french green beans, tossed salad
was completed with “sunshine cake”. One meal was delivered.
This month Effie McCall was the winner of the 50/50 draw, while
Wallace Nicholson, a new participant was the winner for the door prize.
In the month of November those who have birthdays are Leo Dyk,
Graeme McDowell, John Blake, while Jake and Rene Hulzebos and Ted and
Marjory East are celebrating anniversaries.
Since Remembrance Day, Nov. 11 is just around the corner, the guest
speaker was Comrade John Stewart from Blyth Legion Branch 420. His
touching speech reminded everyone what the Legion represents and what
they do for their community. The Legion is considered a service not a Social
Club as many seem to think. Each year numerous hospitals and youth
groups receive financial assistance from the Legion, as well as Town and
Country Homemakers, Diabetes Association, Heart and Stroke, to name a
few. This is just the tip of the iceberg for what the Blyth Legion and Legion
Ladies Auxiliary do for their community.
The Remembrance Day Service will be held at Memorial Hall on
Thursday, Nov. 11 at 10:45 a.m. with Pastor Les Cook officiating. If you are
unable to attend, please take two minutes of silence at 11 a.m. in memory of
those who fought for our country, as this will be the last Remembrance Day
of the 20th Century.
Leah Davis thanked John.
The next and final meal of this century will be on Dec. 3 at the Anglican
Church.
Kathy’s Quote of the Week: If owls are so wise, how come they never get
