I don't know what you think about pigeons or if you think about pigeons at all but I just met someone new in town that happens to have some very different pigeons. On behalf of the Walton com- munity I would like to wel- come Yvonne and Don Kitchener to our fair village. After moving quite a few times they have decided that this is the place they want to be. Walton, says Don is very similar to the place he grew up in. The place was called Clairevillc which is the most Northwestern•tip of Toronto. When he was around 8 or 9 he raised pigeons. He had tumblers, tipplers and regular Karn pigeons. Now Don has decided to get involved with pigeons again and he now has 20 Burmingham Roller pigeons. He said that they are wonderful to watch as they do their acrobats in the air. Right now the pigeons are nesting and getting used to their surroundings. These pigeons will lay two eggs every 18 to 20 days and usu- ally just o e •of the chicks will survive. Don says he still has a lot to learn but looks forward to it. Yvonne com- mented that she has met a lot of nice people since moving in. She enjoys homemade crafts of all sorts and she designs knitting patterns. Don likes to collect and restore old Ford tractors. Right now he has a 1939-9N, 1048-8N and a 1942-2N tractor. He also in his spare time, rebuilds air compres- sors, paints cars, fixes up old cars and trucks and docs car- pentry work. I guess you could say that he is a regular "handy man". School News: It was wind down and wind up time for the last two days of school. Monday was the last half of the talent show and the Grade Walton by Patty Banks 887-6156 and Krista Shortrecd sporting sunglasses stepped thcir way through a number. Mrs. Scott was amazed that they weren't even puffing. The girls replied that they could even dance for an hour. Cassandra 4 "send off".

The talent then switched gears as Laura Elligsen, Cassandra Banks and Nikki VandcrVecn put on their little skit. Their message was "do not fight". Taylor Bennewies who is in junior kindergarten, took his turn and sang. His grandma Horan accompanied him. on the piano. His sister Kelsey played on the piano. Another and had the whole school singing along with them. Mrs. Vandendool then brought her Grade 4s to the front and they introduced themselves. Then sitting in a circle they began voicing thcir concerns about what next year in Seaforth will hold for them. Some said they heard that they have great teachers there, and that you can sign up for soccer. One kid said he didn't want to leave Walton. Mrs. Crocker called Mrs. change in pace happened Vandendool forward and when Laura Bowers, in Grade I, did stepdancing. handed her congratulation Back to the piano came certificates to hand out to the Jennifer Ecdy.

While extolling the many virtues of Premier George Drew and the two-year-old Tory govemment, he stopped suddenly, right in the middle of a sentence. He had noticed a friendly face in the back of the hall. He raised his arm in a wave and said, "I see my old friend Jack Pethick in the audience, and with a big smile he added, "Glad to see you, Jack." And indeed Jack was at the rear of the hall covering the meeting for the Free Press. None of the local people knew or recognized him standing at the back near the door. However...most of them did know Seaforth's own Jack Pethick was sitting in a row about the centre of the hall. He was somewhat of a char- acter in town and was slouched down with a week- old beard and appeared to be fast asleep. Tom Pryde did win the by- election. But the Tory sup- porters who packed the hall never did quite figure out how the guest speaker knew Jack Pethick - the fellow who appeared to have passed out in the middle of the audience. Alzheimer to go up Because of Canada's aging population, the number of seniors with dementia, of which Alzheimer disease is the most prevalent type, is expected to triple in the first third of the next century, to 778,000 by the year 2031, according to Statistics Canada. Bear cub near door A black bear cub gave Port Elgin residents a bit of a thrill June 13 when it was spotted in a tree along the shoreline, on Arthur Street, 10 -feet from a local woman's front door. The cub soon scurried into a nearby park, then into a bush at the end of a dead-end street.
