REMEMBER
The Remembrance Day
service at the United Church
was observed with some
special music "Glory, glory
halleluia!" Preceding the ser-
mon Rev. R. Peebles sang a
solo "In Times Like These."
A soldier's metal hat and
poppy placed on the piano set
-the theme on Sunday morning
for the topic "Wanted 'Men'
". He spoke of the sacrifices
made by soldiers and also for
the people who sacrificed
their lives for the Christian
belief. Today, God is looking
for men with basic biblical
belief.
Mrs. Marion Stucky
transferred her membership
to Grand Bend from First
Presbyterian church,
Michigan.
Several lovely floral ar-
rangements were placed in
the church in memory of Olga
Tataren, by her husband
Michael and family. Atten-
ding the service in a body
were two leaders and four
Boy Scouts from Parkview
United Church of Stratford.
They were camping in the
area on the weekend.
The U.C.W. will meet on
this Thursday at 1:30 p.m.

We have this big thing in
our new bathroom. We're not
really sure what to call it. We
were calling it a hot tub, but
that's confusing as many peo-
ple picture a big wooden
round tube, and this one is
square.
Some people call it a
whirlpool, but that's not the
right word either. Others call
it a Jacuzzi, but that's a
misnomer as this one isn't
that brand. In fact, we
weren't at all sure just what
it was until a four-year-old
friend was visiting and took a
look at it. "It's Barbie's bub-
bling spa, only bigger," she
said.
Anyway, it's there now -- we
put an addition on our house
and built a large bathroom
around our mini swimming
pool. It took quite a while to
arrange the room to suit the
bubbling spa, but at last
everything was in place and
we decided it was finally time
to fill the tub with water and
see it in action.
Thinking that we were be-
ing very smart, we carefully
read all the instructions
before putting the water in.
The first item I noticed in the
instruction booklet was "this
tub is not to he used by preg-
nant women". Since I'm due
to have a baby in two months
I guess I fall into that
category. It's a little dissap-
pointing to find out that
something you've been look-
ing forward to for a year has
tc wait a few more months. So
I asked my doctor and was
assured that as long as we
don't put the temperature too
high, the spa is quite safe.
Since the thermostat is easi-
ly adjusted we decided to go
ahead and fill the tub so that
we could enjoy it.
But a further check with the
instruction booklet told us
that we should not use the spa
until we added the correct
amounts of chlorine and acid.
We got nut the test kit, and
As part of the Remem-
brance Day services this
year, the GB Legion offered
students a chance to express
their ideas about the war, in
the form of posters, essays
and poetry.
The judges at North Lamb -
ton Secondary School return-
ed the results on Friday,
when Legion members
Marion Shaw, George
Gallant, Chuck Howard,
Marg and Bob Hedley, Todd
Desaulniers and Halina
Crawford attended the public
school service. Chairman
Halina Crawford thanked
everyone expressing that it's
a difficult thing to draw or
write about when these young
students haven't experienced
it personally.
First and seconds will be
sent to Zone for a further
judging and winners from
there will go provincial.

checked the amount of each
chemical. The test kit show-
ed that both were needed. We
checked the booklet for the
chart which shows how much
chlorine and acid to add. Un-
fortunately, the chart is made
for swimming pool owners
and recommends the
amounts for pools starting at
25,000 gallons of water. Our
mini pool is only a few hun-
dred gallons, so we just
"guestimated" the amounts
of chlorine and acid to add.
Finally, it was time to get
in. We relaxed in the luxury of
the warm, bubbling water.
We played with all the
gadgets -- making ad-
justments to the temperature
gauge, the jets and the
amount of air in the jets. We
had the jets running at low
and high speeds. Then we
found the light, turning it on
and giving the entire room a
warm glow from the under-
water lighting.
We thoroughly enjoyed
ourselves, finding the hot,
bubbling water very relaxing
and a real treat for stiff
muscles and sore backs.
Then we climbed out only to
discover the entire bathroom
flooded. It never occured to us
that our beautiful bubbling
spa could leak all over the
floor. We had no alternative
but to drain all the pH -
balanced water, so we hauled
out the garden hose and let
the water run out the window.
Then it was time to check
urulerneath the tub for the
disastrous leak. But there
was no sign of it. Just like the
man whose roof doesn't leak
when it doesn't rain, a hot tub
won't leak once the water is
drained out of it.
You would think that
anyone who was undergoing
extensive home renovations
would know that Murphy's
law always holds true. If
anything can go wrong, it will.
Of course, now that we've
been reminded of that fact we
are afraid to refill the tub.
TOP ESSAY --- As part of the Remembrance Day ser-
vice at GBPS some top students were awarded prizes
