The three Cronyn grandchildren participated in the service: Margaret Cronyn read from the Scriptures; Michael was an' altar boy; and Made was soloist. A full choir, with Margaret Phelan at the organ, provided music for the Mass. Following the service, 50 guests enjoyed a delicious roast beef dinner in the banquet room of the Triple K. Restaurant. Wedding cake, made and beautifully decorated by daughter-in-law Yvonne Cronyn, and served with ice-cream, put just the right finishing touch to the anniversary repast. Jim Phelan was toastmaster for the after- dinner program, and toasters were Louis Stadelmann, of Goderich, a former neighbor; Jim Laidlaw who had lived on the next farm; and Simon Hallahan who shared his desk with Leo Cronyn on his first day of school which was Union No. 3, Morris and West Wawanosh. Simon entertained his audience by telling of Leo's prank that worked successfully on BLYTH Christian Reformed Church "Guest Minister" Service 1Oam. 8 p.m. Sunday School 11 a.m. Stondor more than one. winter day enabling the whole school to enjoy a surprise holiday. At the close of the program, Mrs. Cronyn opened, and expressed gratitude for, the lovely gifts received. One had a place of pro- minence. It was an all wodd crafted lawn chair given by neighbors who had enhanced its charm by placing in it a handsome red and white gloxinia plant. To honor further this very special occa- sion, Mr. and Mrs. Cronyn held Open House at their home in Blyth on July 8. Sixty guests signed the guest book. Pouring tea were nieces, Rita Cronyn of Windsor and Dorothy Cronyn of Toronto. Granddaughter, Margaret Cronyn and Christine Hallahan served dainty refreshments prepared by Marie Heffron and Marguerite Hallahan. On May 22, 1934, Leo Cronyn of Morris Township and Aileen Carbert of Hullett were married by Father Morris Sullivan in St. Joseph's Church, Clinton. Attendants were Agnes and George Carbert of Hullett, first cousins of the bride. Prior to his marriage, Leo had bought a farm on the 8th line of Morris from the Laidlaws who had bought it from the Crown 63 years before. The Cronyns, after 36 years of happy farm life, were loath to leave the place where they had gone as bride and groom. Aileen really enjoyed milking cows and managing the poultry division of their farm operation. Now, comfortably retired in the village, they derive great satisfaction from the fact that this historical acreage, after 50 years, still bears the Cronyn name. Their son John, an only child, is the proud possessor. The entire Blyth community extends to Leo and Aileen Cronyn hearty congratula- tions on attaining their 50th wedding an- niversary, and best wishes for continued happiness and good health.

Floodplain report studied EAST WAWANOSH - The recommenda- tions of the recent Taylor Report on floodplain management in Ontario were a topic of discussion at July's meeting of East Wawanosh council. In essence, council agrees with the general intent of the report which is to give more control of floodplain policy back to the municipalities or elected officials, "said Reeve Neil Vincent in a telephone interview later. That would mean taking away some of the powers of the Ministry of Natural Resources and bodies such as the Maitland Valley Con- servation Authority (MVCA). Although the report recommends that all dectsion-making powers revert back to the municipalities, Mr. Vincent said his council would work With the conservation authority in a cooperative fashion to make use of the , MVCA's years of experience in floodplain matters. But it all comes down to common sense, said the reeve, and he pointed to instances in the township where properties that never flood have been designated as flood -prone in floodplain mapping. In the end, Mr. Vincent said the decision should be left up to the in- dividual landowner. To Mr. Vincent's understanding, the report proposed that conservation authorities revert back to their original in- tent, that is as advisory, bodies or groups that municipalities could "ask for advice rather than permission". Council's comments were forwarded to the Ministry of Natural Resources head- quarters at Queen's Park. In other business council received a re- quest for a grant from the Blyth Community Centres Board to gp toward a land pur- chase that board is hoping to make.
