The New Hamburg ;: elle Ringers, under their direc- tor, Gerald E. Ziegler, delighted all with a form of music which may new to some, but which, through the expertise of his group, is becoming familiar throughout southwestern Ontario. From the opening with • • T h e Chimes of Westminister" to the closing with "Praise and Hallelu- jah", the versatility of the bells was found in a variety of numbers. A highlight of the evening was Mr. Ziegler's invitation for 12 volunteers from the audience to come up and ..have a try.' Incredibly, without any practice, just by following the director, the ia-npromtu group were able to play "Frere Jacque" so well that the second time the audience provided the vocal accompaniment. The concert was also enriched with an excellent organ recital of Medelssohn's "Sixth Sonata" by St. Andrew's organist, Charles Merrill, and with a solo "All In An April Evening" beautifully sung by Wynne Homuth. At the close many of the audience took advantage of Mr. Ziegler's invitation to visit with his Prom and ex- t amine the bells at first hand. Otherstook the opportunity of inspecting the church organ while Charlie Merrill explained its intricacies. St- Andrew's minister, Rev. T.A. Duke, hosted the evening and the Madeleine Lane Auxthary president, Mrs. Isabelle Edward made presentations of behalf of the club who sponsored the even- ing. The New Hamburg Belle Ringers have a roster of up - conking engagements, in- cluding a trip to Ithaca, N.X. where they will participate in a "massed bell ringing" comprising 80 different groups all playing together. We of southwestern On- tario have reason to be proud of these talented youngsters and their director.

They're easy to make and make good decorations on porches and windowsills. To make a windmill you need: a square piece of thin cardboard (a back from a cereal box is perfect) about five inches by five inches [l scissors C� paint D plastic straw [ 1 two straightened paper clips Directions: 1. Fold your square piece of thin cardboard dia- gonally from one corner to its opposite, and then fold the cardboard diagonally again. 2. Colour the triangles made from the folds on both the front and back of the cardboard. 3. After the paint has dried, cut down each fold towards the centre, but stop about one inch away from the centre. 4. Poke holes in the cardboard with the paper clip as shown in the diagram below, and poke a hole in one end of the straw. 5. Hold the two paper clips together and stick them through the straw and the centre of the card. 6. By matching the letters below, bend each cor- ner and stick it with the paper clips. 7. When all the corners are joined to the centre, bend the paper clips to secure the windmill. 8. Hold your windmill up to the breeze and watch it spin!

OR April 14 a mini -twister ripped through Brucefield, taki:l:;;, the roof off a barn owned by Sud Scroggs. Mr. Scroggs said he was almost killed in the storm. While cleaning up debris from the roof, a large piece flew off, narrowly missing him. (Rod Hilts photo) Country Canada looks back He thought he had it all. A $1 million beef operation. That was in 1978 when Ken Riddell was a guest on CBC Television's Country Canada. Today he's out of the business, selling at a $41 1,000 loss. Then And Now, a three- part special series on Coun- try Canada beginning Sun- day, April 24 at 1:00 p.m. looks back and asks the question, where are they now? Guests from the past return to bring viewers up to date, after one of the most difficult economic times in Canadian history. Allen Wilford went on a starvation diet in jail to br- ing attention to the growing farm protest movement. Wilford, president of the Canadian Farm Survival Association, was arrested for his involvement in a '30s style penny auction held for a farmer threatened with foreclosure. We take a look at how the movement, created because of high in- terest rates, has grown over the years, and the effect of the recent publicity. In 1978, an economics pro- fessor from the University of Saskatchewan talked about the future of Canadian agriculture arid what economic problems were on the horizon. That professor, Grant Devine, is now the Premier of Saskatchewan. He looks at the grain in- dustry and how it will relate to the Crow rate. The storiesnew take viewers to all regions of the country: to B.C. for a report on Prince Rupert's new grain terminal that will greatly increase Canada's ca .• city to export grain; fo N• " :'. s:cotia to find out from Calf :`Roache what it is like to be -a sea, captain; to the Niagara escarpment to meet Earl Muir, an in- dependent fruitgrower com- peting with the multi- national fruit packers. Then And Now is a series BUSINESS AND PROFESSINAL DIRECT of stories about people and their dreams. And, most im- portant what has happened to those dreams. Sandy Cushon is host. Robert Petch is executive producer. Dairy herd deworming Dr. Lavern Clark will host a seminar of interest to all dairy producers in this area.

Huron -Perth UC W h ea r of Zaire medical problems Love In Action was the theme of a well -attended special event held in North Street United Church, Goderich, for the Huron - Perth Presbyterial of United Church Women. A singalong was led by Irla Stewart. The ladies were welcomed by president, Grace Pym, R.R.1. Cen- tralia and Ila Worsell if the local church. The guest speaker was in- troduced by Lois McGill. She is Miss Laurie Scaldwell, London, a fourth year medical student recently returned from Zaire where she spent four months through the Medical Elec- tives Program which our Presbyterial supports. She showed slides and told of many very interesting ex- periences. The hospital where she worked most of the time employed 166 people. They trained Africans to be nurses which was a four-year pro- gram following high school — but said so many don't have the opportunity to at- tend high school. She said that tuberculosis is a big pro- blem and there are many burn victims because of their open fires. Con- taminated water causes many illnesses. She spoke of travelling to some remote places — it took six hours to go 60 miles. There they performed opera- tions with light from a car headlight and car battery and sterilized their in- struments in a pressure cooker over an open fire. Some of these people had been waiting up to 20 years for these operations. Laurie wants to go back to Zaire because of the people. She said, "God has loved us and made us his ambassadors to show the world his love." Special music was provid- ed by The Teentones, a 30 voice choir of teenage girls from Goderich under direc- tion of Mrs. Stewart. Courtesy remarks were given by Alice Cumming of Stratford. Guests enjoyed refreshments, visited the book room, and viewed the informative displays on the "South Pacific". Following recess the 1983 executive was introduced by Doris Zurbrigg. The Campsite Experience was announced for June 16, 1983, at Camp Menesetung. The evening concluded with worship conducted by the ladies of South Huron Region: Elaine Moore, Marlene Brenner, soloist and Irene Kennedy, pianist, all of Grand Bend.
