It's mid-September and the Hub of Huron County is all activity. The annual Hospital Penny Sale is underway at the Town Hall, Brownies, Guides, Cubs and Scouts are starting (more on that further down the column) and September is Arthritis month (more on that too.) But the real story of September will be the distinct gravitational pull northward the week after next to the site of the International Plowing Match at Wingham starting September 26. Local farmers, whose ads I take over the phone, will be praying that I make a personal pilgrimage to the shrine of agricultural equipment and learn at first hand the meaning of such farm names as eight row corn planters, combines, harvesters, bean windrowers, balers, etc. I do try to be very accurate when taking ads over the phone from these farmers, who toss off these machinery names and are half way back to the field before 1 hang up the receiver. However, looking back to my first month on the job, eight years ago, nothing has ever com- pared to my greatest .faux -pas when ope of my ads appeared in the Farm Section as "For Sale: three white Laced steers". +++ Mr. and Mrs. Benson Sutter in company with the former's sisters and their husbands Mr. and Mrs. Robert Pollock, Cambridge and Mr, and Mrs. R.

B. Chant. Mr. Floody's father was at one time publisher of the Clinton News -Record.
