President, Ed. Oddliefson welcomed guests including members of Coun- cil, Reeve, David Johnston, and members of LACAC. Kay Reid, delivered a message from the Rev. Douglas Pitts, who was unable to be present. He wished to stress, she said, an interesting contribution which had been made by the Society to the new Bayfield Village Inn. The photographic section of the archives had been made available to the proprietor, Jack Pounder, and from it he had selected a whole collec- tion of pictures of the village. These had been enlarged and framed and provided a uni- que addition to the decor. Although going back a number of years it was in- teresting to note the detail which had been achieved by the camera equipment. Elva Metcalf was thanked for the varied and in- teresting programs she had provided throughout the Society elects 1 year, and Dorothy Cox presented a report on the work which had been achiev- ed in sorting, cataloguing and encapsulating archival material. Thanks were also given to all those who had assisted in this task, as well as the manning off the Ar- chives room during the sum- mer months, and the displays in the windows, which had been outstanding. She concluded her report on a lighter note by reading a newspaper cutting found among the papers of the late Canon Paull, an amus- ing letter recounting the ex- ploits and disasters of an Irish family. Officers for 1983 were elected as follows: President -Ed Oddliefson; 1st Vice -Gwen Pemberton; 2nd Vice -Rev. Douglas Pitts; Secretary -Margaret Mid- dleton and Treasurer -John Land; Archives -Dorothy Cox. Mrs. Metcalf will be in charge of programs and pro- jects, and Joyce Seaman will handle the membership. Peg Willock will be the represen- tative to A.C.O., and Kelly tit Ball and Sandra Land are the social convenors, with the Rev. George Youmatoff continuing in charge of the tape recordings. Under new business, Dr. Grove Shepherd proposed that the Society should have its own subscription to the Clinton News Record, and this was agreed. Mrs. Pemberton introduc- ed the speaker, Paul Dilse from the Ontario Ministry of Citizenship and Culture. He had, he said five good reasons for being in Bayfield, the first two being that he like the village and had friends there. He was also there in connection with the restoration of the veran- dah at the Little Inn. However, an even more im- portant reason was in rela- tion to the recent approval which had been given with regard to Heritage designa- tion, Bayfield being the fourth Conservation District in the Province. With this ui mind he was pleased to have an opportunity to outline details of ways in which potential nrnpramc might o eers acquire funds for their im- plementation. A slide presentation show- ed what had been done in other places. Mr. Dilse gave specific details for making applications for funds, and the type of project which might be considered. He distributed literature regar- ding financial assistance. Mrs. Willock said a number of ideas were being formulated and the members off LACAC an- ticipated that they would be seeking advice from Mr. Dilse in the pursuit of their objectives. Reeve Johnston reminded those present that an impor- tant topic in the county at the present time was the fate of the museum at Goderich. He hoped that there would be people who would respond to the request of Huron County for representatives to serve on an advisory committee required to establish the terms of reference. Refreshments were pro- vided by Mrs. Kelly Ball and Mrs. Doris Reddoch.

The question was posed as to which of the Arts had most influenced civilization. Nick Hill presented the case for Architecture, Rev. George Youmatoff spoke for music, Dr. Grove Shepherd for the drama, Mrs. Leda McAlister for the visual arts and Mrs. Gwen Pemberton for the written word. The final summation is of course that each is necessary for the whole man in a civilized world. Fred Arkell of Goderich, who has been ill in Universi- ty Hospital, London since before Christmas, has been moved to the home of his daughter and son-in-law Vera and ;ob Turner, in town. No doubt loving family care will hasten his recovery. We hope you all reco: ized Vera and Bob's lovely look- ing daughter Gayle King, who was pictured an the Flu cane -ls ACW meeting Due to the outbreak of in- fluenza the January meeting of the Anglican Church Women ;.. d to be cancelled.

Many will remember Gayle's first appearance in the public eye, when she was cast in the role of Queen Elizabeth for the command performance of the Bayfield on the Bayfield Shakespearean Festival, as a small child. She led a whole entourage of children, each robed and regal, to represent the Royal Court, come to view the performance. This production took place under the auspices of the Pioneer Park Association the year that other SEakespeareaii Festival opened in Stratford. Ours was more fun but just as hot ! ! Our junior members have thriving organizations too, January 22 was an exciting afternoon for tobogganing at Rainbow Valley for the Bayfield Guides. Last Thursday they went skating, compliments of McCloud's Fisheries. Julie aker sends this report from the Junior Gardeners. Eight members attended the January meeting. They learned about hay and straw. Afterwards they had a discussion on straw. Then made a picture with straw. New members are welcome each month. The next meeting is February 28 at the Municipal building. St. Andrew's United Church welcomed into their membership Mr. and Mrs. Bill Clarke and Mr. and Mrs. James Cleave on Sunday. Ted Dunn was congratulated on his election and induction to the sessions. The flowers in the chancel were given by the family of Mr. :.ill Milne in his memory. The church suf- fered a real loss in his pass- ing last year, as he had given so much of his time and in- terest to the congregation. February 15 will bring tt winner's dinner to the groups. The white team members collected the most pennies, so they are respon- sible for the program. Elaine Dunn, Lorraine Fisher or Diane Argyle are the people to contact in this regard.

Thinking how very nice it was of Joyce to remember them on their 40th wedding anniversary, they innocently drove to Zurich to dine at the Dominion Hotel Completely surprised they found 18 peo- ple had come to celebrate with them. Guests were there from Bayfield, Clinton and Brucefield, where the Dutton's had been in burliness for many years. Serena and Chanda Chilton, Audrey and Janice Dollery presented the bride and groom with corsages. Mr. Roy Brock toasted the bridal couple. Arthur Dutton thanked the guests and the dinner culminated with the serving of an anniversary cake, bak- ed by Mrs. Hargreaves of Brucefield, iced and decorated by Mr. Cormier of the Bedford Hotel, copying very closely the cake presented to the parents of Shirley Hargreaves on their 40th anniversary. The neighbors of the Dut- ton's gave them a floral ar- rangement of ruby coloured silk blossoms to represent the ruby anniversary. Beth and Arthur were married in Clinton and their attendants were the late Mr. and Mrs. Fine. Mr. Fine was principal of the high school there for many years. Beth is the sister of Kathleen Elliott of Clinton and niece of Mrs. Ida Menary. It was Mrs. Menary who gave Lucy Woods the opportunity to save the land where Pioneer Park now stands, when the Reid estate was being settled:` Lucy knew what to do about it as we all know, but we shouldn't forget the Reid family.

What is bypass surgery Coronary artery bypass surgery improves the blood supply to the heart muscle when narrowed coronary arteries have reduced the flow of oxygen -rich blood to the pumping heart. This reduction in blood flow may cause chest pain and lead to an increased risk off heart at- tack. Coronary artery bypass surgery involves con- structing detours for the blood to bypass obstructed portions of coronary arteries to keep the heart muscle sup- plied. Non-essenti.:1 veins taken from other parts of the body, usually the legs, are grafted onto the coronary arteries to provide detours around the obstructed area.

Most people don't know exactly how many members are in their family — cousins, second cousins, cousins twice removed all add up to a vast number. Here is a way to figure out how many close relatives a person has — how many brothers, sisters, and grandparents. Ask a friend of yours to do the following equations in secret — their answer will tell you how many close relatives that person has. Ask them to write down: 1.the number of brothers they have 2.multiply by 2 3.add 3 4.multipfy by 5 5.add the number of sisters they have 6.multiply by 10 7.add the number of grandparents 8.subtract 150 The answer your friend will give you will have three numbers in it. The first number equals how many brothers they have, the second the number of sisters, and the third, the number of grandpar- ents. ..
