Jim Purvis was volunteer driv- er to transport Clarence Gascho, Philippa Steckle, Clara Hamilton, Dorothy Dietrich, Esther Makins, Beaulah Desjardine, Ted Stein- bach, Ruby Bell and Pearl Miller to down on the farm. The Benders demonstrated to the residents the art of swathing barley, baling and wrapping the bales in plastic wrap which brought back memories of many to an earlier day in their lives. Those were the days when one saved wax paper from the loaves of bread for the lunch pail, not plastic wrap, and who would have thought then that in the 90s one would be wrapping one's grain in boughten plastic.

Condolences to the family and friends of the late Mrs. Vera Sarah Thiel who passed away on Sunday, August 11 at South Huron Hospi- tal, Exeter.

Vera's absence will be noted by all! The residents look forward to a trip to Walmart in Goderich on August 13, a visit to the Shantz Cottage August 19 and a birthday party with Bayfield United Church on August 22. On Sunday, August 25 from 2:30 until 4:30 Clarence Gascho will celebrate 80 years young with an open house at BWRH in the air conditioned auditorium.
