Bible study
Rev. Paul Ross greeted the Bible
students as they met at Lois Haines'
home on Wednesday, May 8 at 1:30
p.m. There was a good attendance
and the meeting opened with an
inspiring sing-song with the hostess
accompanying at the organ.
Lois then invited everyone to the
_dining room and treated them with
homemade tea biscuits and muffins
served with strawberry-rhubarb jam
and cheese.
Bible Study was 1st Samuel,
chapters 13-15. Saul was the king
and had to establish an army to
defend the Israelites. He made a
standing army and a militia for
active service when needed.
The Philistines have a large army
and are ready for battle. However the
Israelites are afraid and hide. Then
Saul asks that a peace offering be
made to God. Samuel was annoyed
and told him that he had lost the
kingdom.
Jonathan, Saul's son, has faith in
God and trusts in his help in good or
in bad. God is always there.
Rev. Ross closed with prayer. Next
week's meeting will be at
Londesboro United Church.

Mr. and Mrs. Keith Lapp and
family and Mrs. E. Lapp attended
the wedding at Seaforth, St. James
Catholic Church of Amanda Denys,
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Walter
Denys to Kevin MacDonald, son of
Mr. and Mrs. B. MacDonald, Blyth.
The bride is the granddaughter of
Mrs. E. Lapp and the late Elliott
Lapp.
One grandson, Michael Lapp,
Vancouver attended the wedding
also. He is visiting the family for a
few days.
The wedding breakfast and
reception was held at the Clinton
Legion Hall and-the Legion ladies
served the delicious meal.
Mr. Richard Lapp, London,
attended the happy wedding also and
stayed overnight at Mrs.E. Lapp's
home. He returned to London
Sunday morning to be with his wife
and family for Mother's Day. His
wife, Helen, is a hospital patient
there.
On Monday Michael Lapp was
taken to the airport to catch a plane
back to Vancouver.
Recently I was asked how the
spring birds were doing. Yesterday
morning I was having breakfast and
a pair of bluebirds came to dine too.
They were indigo buntings.
Before I had finished my meal in
came another bird, a male rose-
breasted grossbeak. I had to check a
bird book to be sure of that and I
think there is also a female
grossbeak here too. He is really a
beautiful fellow. They have stayed
some years so I hope this pair takes
up residence too.
Various sparrows are returning —
the song sparrow, the white crowned
sparrow and the chipping sparrow
are here. Of course old faithfuls,
bluejays and doves are busy.

Blyth Fall Fair
For more than a century the Blyth Fall Fair was an exciting part of autumn in Blyth and district, a place
where town and country met. This photo, apparently from the 1950s, shows some of the outdoor
exhibits. Because of declining participation by volunteers, the fall fair died in the early 1970s. Watch
for a complete history in The Citizen's 125th anniversary edition. — Photo courtesy of Murray and
