Doctor 1 amey- e By Doris Hunter The Heart ,Fuad Campaign continues, we read of so many advances being made by the medical profession, sometimes it is well to view it frome personal standpoint. You will recall the name Dr. William Mustard, mentioned last week. His fame is truly world wide, a legend now. The brother of Lorraine Burch, our Burchs' daughter-in- law, was a blue baby, saved by the skill and technique of Dr. Mustard. 'He had a normal childhod, and growing in- to manhood, was ordained a minister in the United church, surely a man contributing so, to the good of mankind. Imagine the anguish experienced when his own little boy baby was born with the same condition. Hopeless they told him, by his local Doc- tors, but remembering his own miracle, he travelled further with the child and finding a Doctor, trained under Dr. Mustard, the b • G y was operated on and is growing up well healthy today.

Speaking of hearts, St. Valentines Day an. found about 20 of Bayfield's smallest sweethearts, clustered about Helen Latimer to hear her read some Valentine stories to them at the special party for the day in the library. The story hour children were to hear four or five little tales, .the first to tae read, Zillions of Valentines. Then there were Valentines to be made the materials all laid out oil the, tables, treats were coming and a valenttae exchange. Norma Gosse was help- ing everyone to have a very happy morning. We're glad to report that Vera Turner is able to be at home, after her long siege in hospital, and Bob Scott is enjoying the com- fort of his own home too. Bridge is what makes the winter possible to many people, but that isn't the game which is keeping a number of the men in town, busy at the Firehall these afternoons. It's like an old time hot stove league, euchre of course, who needs the spring? Need it or not the first robin -has been sighted and Snow drops are in bud. Is there such a thing as Indian Spring? The search for someone to head up the campaign for the Red. Cross continues. This is not lust some organization that carries foaekages to prisoners of war. It is.vital and alive, our blood doner clinics are splen- didly useful, but is the Red Cross which is the central agency. for this lifesaving ser: vice. The campaign takes place in March time grows short, contact Doris Hunter if you can help. We have so many people, at enforced leisare in Bayfield surely that time on your hands could serve this useful purpose. Skaters are looking forward to the Skate- a-thon this Saturday. The Rogers at the Nip and Tuck have sponsor sheets. They also have tickets, along the rest of our business places for the Annual Draw for the Break -up -time of the river ice. Get yours, they're $1 apiece. IJ• ioness concert is a greatsuccess By Helen Owen On Feb. 7 another of the series of winter concerts sponsored by the BayfieicFLioness in conjunction • with Youth and Music Canada, was held in the Community Centre. There was a goodattendance to enjoy the music of `Entracte' - William Beauvais, guitar, and Lucie ' Batteke, Flute. This unusual combination of instruments presented the audience with a program that covered a broad range of works from tradi- tional to contemporary. . The great rapport between the players was obvious right from the start, and although they have only been playing together since May of last year, in style and interpretation their perception of each others contribution was most marked. Bob and Fran Peters Welcome You to US ' Inn Restaurant and Motel WEEKEND SPECIALS IN OUR DININGROOM 2 MilesSouth of. Bayfield on Hwy. No. 21 (519)565-2450 Mr. Beauvais explained to the audience that the theme of the concert was `Vistas', and following the performance of work by Handel and Carelli, presented his own ar- rangement of folk songs. In every instance the players brought to their performance new and unusual approaches, so that they did indeed fulfill their promise of vistas - and new vistas, which although at times were unfamiliar, nevertheless held the at- tention of the audience. As well as playing together with so much skill and sensitivity in the second half of the program they demonstrated their own in- dividual excellences. Lucie Batteke's flute, especially the Debussy, captured the poignancy and delicacy of which that in- strument is capable, whilst ,0 William Beauvais interpretation of Spanish music, far from conventional, revealed another dimension rarely experienced leaving no doubt of his depth of feeling and mastery of the classical guitar..- Their concluding -item. was a lively and stimulating performance of six Rumanian Folk dances (Bartok ). Reading the program notes it is not sur- prising to learn that both these young per- formers have achieved very high standards and acclaim and Bayfield was fortunate in having an opportunity to listen to them. Coffee and cookies were served to round. off the evening and the young players then had an opportunity to talk to the audience. It was interesting to note that they wished those present to sign in the special book they tee -tam -this -purpose. Where's the board By Helen Owen ' For sorpe time now Bayfield Garden Club hasgiven advance notice:of its meetings on a pretty yellow board displayed outside the Post Office. But the board, has disappeared since it seems some irresponsible persons decided to interfere and vandalize the main board. It is hard to imagine what type of mentality in- dulges in' that kind of vandalism - so. pointless and inconsiderate. , In this particular instance it is even more regrettable because the Garden Club, since its inception has done so much to enhance the village. Colorful flower beds and tubs have been provided and maintained, young gardeners have been encouraged, and a Wild Flower Sanctuary established on Mara Street.

The date chosen was 1784, although On- tario as a Province was not created until the British North America Act of 1867, with the boundaries confirmed in 1912. From 1791 the area was known as Upper Canada, many of the settlers being United Empire Loyalists whilst others . were immigrants from Bri- tain, Europe and the United States.

The Department accepted with regret the resignation of two stalwarts of the force, Don - Mcllwain, who feels he cannot do justice to the job; -because the long hours • demanded by his business, the Bayfield garage and Ken Brandon. Ken has been a firefighter, since Bayfield's volunteer fire department was formed in' 1947. The disastrous fire at the' Ritz Hotel, one of -the village landmarks, pointed up the need for such an organization and Ken was one of those who came for- ward. - He is a Bayfield boy, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Harold Brandon, who had a family of eight children; the names of whom appear over the years in all the worthwhile endeavours in town. Ken and Elaine have six children themselves and are most thankful, that all escaped the dreadful fire which raged in their own home some years ago.

The Royal Botanical Gardens said it would cost each municipality $50 to plant the tree and have it repaired in case of damage. Bayfield Council studied the invitation at their Feb. 6 meeting and °Reeve Dave Johnston deferred the motion. On February 15, Heritage Day, the Bayfield bicentennial flag will be raised at. 11:30 a.m. Councillor Helen Owen told coun- cil that Huron Warden " Tom Cunningham and his wife have been invited to attend and a meal will be provided after the ceremony. Councillor Owen also told council that she has asked CJBK and FM 93 radio stations to announce a program of Bayfield's bicenten- nial events. Joe dihson, the' Huron County weed in- spector, has been appointed as village weed inspector. Reeve Johnston said that because Mr. Gibson serves all the municipalities in Huron County, he is: the best choice. "They have said they would only be too pleased to do this," commented Helen. Ontario Hydro will soon be removing a tree that is situated on the border of Euphemia and Fry Streets in Bayfield. Mr. .Penhale said he had spoken with the Forestry Division of Ontario Hydro and ap- parently a large , branch has blown off the tree and is situated on the 'property of a church rectory. Council also gave the Road Superinten- dent permission to attend a conference , in Toronto that would cost' $300 for room and registration.
