A NOTE FROM BETTY

June is here in all her beauty.
Another of the pretty months full of
sunshine and flowers.
Have you taken a good look at all
the beautiful gardens in the village
in the past few weeks? We need rain
badly so hopefully showers will pass
this way soon. The earth is parched"
and needs replenished very soon.
The usual good crowd was present
on Saturday night at the Lions Club
annual elimination draw. Saturday
was a bright, warm, beautiful day
and with the promise that supper
w'as being prepared by someone
else, extra jobs got squeezed into the
day with the bonus of a great meal
and good company to end it.
This major fundraiser for the club
has its own routine and the
supporters know and approve of the
setup of the evening. No surprises -
good work, good food and the fun of
watching when your name will be
eliminated. Ken and Bessie
Johnston waited the longest this year
until they were announced the
winners. I’m sure they’ll find a spot
for the extra cash.
The waters of the St. Lawrence
beckoned us last week. Another
place of Canadian beauty. The drive
along Hwy. 2 with stops along the
way is a nice place to spend some
leisure hours. A visit with brother
Jim and crew is always fun and to
make this visit memorable we were
given the fine points of riding a
unicycle. I know you’ll be shocked
to learn that neither RaJph and I
managed the finer points.
The folks at 5R’s are asking that
you sort carefully the treasures you
donate to them. While they
appreciate the gesture, they really
don’t like having to pay for lots of it
to go into their garbage. So please
take a minute and think whether
your gift is saleable. The other
choice could be give the ladies some
bag tags and they’ll sort for you.
Either way be considerate with your
gifts.
The school kids are into the
counting of days and making plans
for their summer. As you consider
all the possibilities, remember that
there are lots of things to do and see.
Be sure to save the afternoons of
July 18-22. All the village churches
work together to make this a fun and
learning experience for the children.
For grandparents it’s a good time
to invite your descendants as they
will be entertained and tired for your
enjoyment as well. So mark that on
your calendar now.
Take care of yourself.
Bye now, Betty G.W.

talent, but, she also involved the audience in her act, much to the
delight of everyone there. The CKNX Barn Dance band provided
