Queensway HENSALL - It seems as though the summer months pass more quickly each year. We'hope if the weather co-operates we can continue to enjoy our Friday barbecues into September. A tea party was held Monday morning in the sunroom. We en- joyed good music, hot tea and some nice visiting. Drawing and penman- ship was the activity for the after- noon. We saw evidence to support the saying "If you don't use it you lose it". We can all use practice with pencil and pen.- Tuesday en:Tuesday Bev Robinson, staff as- sociate to Reverend Hawley of Ex- eter United Church led our worship service with Rob Cameron as pia- nist. On Thursday residents benefited from a special activity led by Nancy Phillips. Our baking room was a scene familiar to many residents as they took part in pickle making project. Mustard pickles to be ex- act. I think we all enjoyed the scent of memories through the building as much as the actual pickling pro- cess. Thank you to Adam Gascho for picking the cucumbers for this project. Residents will be sampling their pickles over the next several weeks. Friday morning we limbered up at Fun and Fitness and at noon we gathered in the backyard for a deli- cious barbecue of hot dogs and hamburgers. Resident Council met on Friday and discussed issues and concerns, also special outings we'd like to plan. In September we will visit the Lambton Museum. Coming events at Queensway are August 31 at 7 p.m. our Birthday Party with the Harmony Kings. September 8 at 2:30 p.m. is Inter- national Day featuring Singapore.

Thousands come for beans By Carmel Sweeney ZURICH - Once again, the Zu- rich Bean Festival drew thousands of visitors to the village to sample the famous beans and to take in the attractions and entertainment that highlight the event. Susan Carter was crowned the 1989 Bean Festival Queen Saturday afternoon. Carter was sponsored by the Tole Booth. The antique car show once again had people inspecting the shiny chrome, waxed finishes, and im- maculate engines of automobiles from all eras. Other attractions included the in- famous frog jumping contest, the horseshoe pitching championship, the puppet show, and all the booths selling everything from home-made food, crafts and gift items. The weather co-operated for the event all day, right through to the full house dance in the arena to live bands. The winners of draw prizes at the Festival included Nancy Regier who won the St. Boniface quilt, Julie Foucoutt of RR3 Dashwood who won the Blue Water Rest Home quilt, and Danielle Durand who won the patio swing donated to the Si. Boniface building fund by Alphonse Grenier of Hensall. The Si. Boniface Knights of Co- lumbus draw was won by Hessie Kipfer who got a half side of beef. Second prize of 20 lbs of pork chops went to John -Morris La- Porte. The third prize turkey was won by Clare Regier. Paper drive still on Although the blue box recycling program is starting up in Zurich in September, the Mennonite boys group would like everyone to know they will still be conducting their monthly paper drives on the last Thursday of each month, starting at 6:30 p.m. They say they are still looking for Zurich's support in the future. The next paper drive is this Thursday, August 31. Personals On Sunday a family get-together and barbecue was held at the home of Mozart and Marie Gelinas Sr. OPP warning TORONTO. - The Ontario Pro- vincial Police is warning the public to be aware of a misleading adver- tising circular that promises major prizes, but doesn't deliver them. The circular, originating from a company in Vancouver, B.C., was sent to a number of local business- es in the North Bay area, and indi- cates that the recipient is an auto- matic winner of a car, a trip or a cash award. The recipient is asked to call the company to confirm receipt of the certificate, and is then asked to send money to cover the cost of shipping. The "Prize" is apparently never received. early 40 people arrived for the oc- casion. Eight teenage members of St. Pe- ter's Lutheran Church attended a youth convention in Ottawa last weekend. They were accompanied by pastor Stephen Alles and Dianne Klopp. We offer our sympathy •to the family of the late Joanna Vermunt who passed away August 24, espe- cially to her husband Marinus. Lions thanked - Co -Host of the Wintario draw, Pam Henry, present- ed Zurich Lions Doug McBeath and Doug Turkheim with a certifi- cate thanking the organization with helping arrange the event. Proceeds from the evenings admission tickets were going to the Blue Water Rest Home building fund and the Lions pledged to match the amount themselves. ;i ■ TRIANGLE ISCDUNtL. 433 MAIN ST., EXETER ._ K 2 g- t o b 1 e-cia.IS AERBES .DIKNAEOCRS .TSEDU; HRNUT?
