Zurich Citizens News, 1981-02-05, Page 730 THE SQUARE PHONE 524 781 1 AIR CONDITIONED Group attends Toc Alpha Rodger McKinley, Liz McNutt, Brian Cheesell and George Wilson, the four members of the Varna - Goshen Youth. Group who attended the Toc Alpha Christmas conference in Varna by Mary Cimessen Hamilton, led in worship and told of their experiences there at the Varna church service on Sunday. They told of seminars they attended on music and the meaning of the songs they sing and listen to; cults and how they operate; drugs; how to choose the field they are most suited for in their life's work, etc. Lit was interviewed on Hamilton radio and Brian on television. Each of them highly recommended the experience to all teenagers, and said they would like to go again. They led in singing the song "Cat's in the Cradle", a statement on the father who has little time for his son, then finds in his old age that his son is too busy for time with him. The Goshen service was cancelled because of bad weather, so the youth panel is scheduled to make their presentation there a week from Sunday. John Woodhouse has resigned his job at Bev Hill's to take a position with the Oxford Swine Artificial Insemination Association at Woodstock.

We'd like to welcome them to the Varna community. The Vanderwal's new barn has gone up rapidly in spite of the wintry weather, and was almost enclosed except for the roof when we went past on Saturday. Murvin and Ruth Johnston's home has a lovely new look with the addition of new siding. The Hayters have been tearing down the house on the former Johnston place. They found the walls lined with issues of The Farmer's Advocate, dated as far back as 1913. They were ad- dressed to Frank R. Weeks. The ads were especially interesting, some from companies still in existence. An ad for a folding bath tub interested me In particular, as we had one when I was a child. One men's suit company advertised suits for $12.50 to $16.50. There were many ads for stoves, most of them quite ornate, and alot of pictures of draft horses. Butter on the Montreal market was 22 to 24 cents a pound, cheese 13 cents, "strictly fresh" eggs 29 cents per dozen.
