For the remaining ones, who will be casting ballots, there is a very apt quotation by Abraham Lincoln regarding politics: "It is the people's business. The election is in their hands. If they turn their backs I to the fire and get scorched in the rear, they'll find they have got to sit on the blister." In short if you are called upon to vote get out and do so. +++ Bob Livermore, Lori and Mark attended the Autumn Convocation at Alumni Hall, University of Western Ontario, London, on Saturday, October 28 to see his wife and their mother, Bar- bara, receive her Bachelor of Arts degree in Sociology. +++ Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Louch left yesterday for their home in St. Cloud, Florida after visiting with Mrs. Louch's brother and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Carl F.
