lyth eople and geese report?
Congratulations to John and Theresa Rinn
on the arrival of Justin John in St. Marys
Hospital on Nov. 7.
During the last two or three weeks as
many as j50 geese have been living together
at one time on the Jackson pond, King Street
East, and what a noisy bunch they can be,
and how residents fortunate enough to live
near them love to hear their goings on!
By Monday last, their numbers had
shrunk to 20 only, and we all know what that
means. Judging by what we found on the
ground Monday morning, their departure
south was right on the button.
However, the Jacksons are sure of two
who won't be lifting off. Ross and Rosie
knew a good thing when they found it and
have been permanent guests of the Jacksons
for some years now. In fact, they are con-
sidered part of the family.
Korea -small but courageous
Mary Wightman's Sunday School room
was the meeting place for the Nov. 6
meeting of the Onward Unit of Blyth U.C.W.
which 13 members attended.
Melda McElroy for devotions, used
material from two of four sermons on
prayer entitled Listening and Giving. They
had been delivered'by Rev. Leslie Smith of
Lexington, Kentucky, and published in his
books, Four Keys to Prayer.
Betty Nethery received praise for a fine
rendition of her vocal solo, minus piano ac-
companiment - "God Will Take Care of
You".
Mary Wightman, by using a chart and
map, made further study on South Korea in-
teresting. Stiff restrictions by a military
government, Mary said, are making dif-
ficult the work of missionaries and all
Korean Christians in their effort to imple-
ment human rights for all citizens of this
courageous small country.
Leader Evelyn Smith discussed church
decorations for December for which On-
ward is responsible. She also reviewed the
10 departments of the four day Bonanza,
naming the conveners.
Betty Nethery, card convener, mention-
ed: Inez MacDonald, now living in Brent-
wood Bay, B.C. who is looking forward to
spending next summer in her Blyth
residence; Alice Falconer who is recovering
after surgery in Goderich Hospital; and
Edith Logan who celebrated her one 101st
birthday on Nov. 5.
At the meeting's close, members enjoyed
refreshments prepared by Janet Lawrie and
Ruby Pattison and enjoyed taking a look in-
to the Church Hall transformed into "as
neat as a pin" clothing store open for
business the next afternoon.
WI meet
The Women's Institute met in the Blyth
Memorial Hall on Nov. 1. The speaker for
the evening was Ron Speir from the
Ministry of Natural Resources at Wingham.
He showed slides showing some of the work
done by the Ministry such as resource pro-
duction, Parks and resources, land and
water management.
Mae Badley and Winnie Johnston gave
readings.
Don't forget the next meeting on Dec. 6 at
6 p.m. It's a potluck supper so bring a guest.
Also cookie exchange. Speaker to be' Lois
Elliott of Clinton.
Bazaars cheer
dreary November
Bazaars make a dull November exciting
with preparation, expectation and atten-
dance. They are an outlet for the creative,
inventive, and those skilled in culinary art.
One such bazaar was the four day Bonan-
za sponsored by the Blyth U.C.W. Because
of a Silent Auction being added this year,
which was an idea of Susan Howson, head
convener, ( her co -convener, Grace Poore,
was in complete accord).
A 31/2 year old Blyth boy is the proud
owner of the Red Barn toy box, which ap-
peared at first glance large enough to house
a colt. Realistically painted on it were win-
dows anci a big door, and its roof lifted.
Because Of this auction, a Clinton household
has been enlarged by the arrival last Satur-
day night of Joan Betsy, the Cabbage Patch
Doll, with her five elegant and practical out-
fits. Three Afghans will grace homes this
winter, and a baby will feel comfy under a
crib quilt. Fourteen new articles in all were
disposed of by auction.
An old saying, "Build a better mouse trap
and the world will beat a path to your door",
can apply to bazaars. One lady's reputation
for crafting a long wearing, attractive
lingerie item is now so well established that
lining up to get one or more of her products
is as essential as making sure one is on time
to buy the most delicious looking bread,
cake or pie.
The "Puff" lady and her co-worker who
made a name for themselves at last year's
bazaar with their real cream confection
were busier than ever this year. Their 150
puffs disappeared fast, whether at the bake
table or the coffee counter.
The "Puff" lady, also an excellent knitter,
began to knit, last summer, articles for the
bazaar, using wool yarn that had been
donated to the Evening Unit last spring by a
main street business lady. With it, she knit
for the Craft Table - five children's
sweaters, and five sleeveless ladies'
pullovers, so popular this season. In fact,
one lady during a Puff and Cup break,
received raves from her friends when she
held up the sweater she had selected, knit of
variegated yarn. Gorgeous!
To make their Bonanza beneficial for the
largest number of people possible was one of
the UCW's objectives. The ladies who knit 24
pairs of mitts placed those not sold on the
mitten tree, to be delivered to the Family
and Children's Services, Goderich. Unsold
used clothing was packed for Goodwill In-
dustries, London, which will give employ-
ment and provide low sale price for the
disabled and underprivileged.
Grade 7 class hold November assembly
un Nov. 9, the Grade 7 class at Blyth
Public School presented their assembly to
the rest of the student body and a number of
interested parents. The theme for their
assembly was Remembrance Day.
First, the important events occuring in
November from Canada's past were
presented, including the birth .of Sir
Frederick Banting, , the hanging of Louis
Riel, and the birth of John McCrae.
Next, the class recited a poem that they
had composed.,
Remember
Remember the brave ones; men and ladies
too
Every one of us owes them; even me and
you,
M is for the memories of ,buddies that were
killed,
E' is for the evil that made their blood ''be
spilled.
M is for the mourning, as the wooden coffins
closed,
B is for the battle, when they had to fight
their foes. ,
R is for the ruins, caused by this vicious
fight;
A is for the allies, who knew their cause was
right.
N is for the nurses, who cared for all the
men;
C is for the children, who were hurt by war
again.
E is. for the effort Canadians made back
then.
•
D is for the doubters, who thought there'd be
no war, '
A is for the armistice that finally settled the
score,
Y is for the years of Peace, that's what we
must thank them for!
The class sang, ably accompanied by
Shirley Vincent on the piano, including;
Amazing Grace; Onward Christian
Soldiers; When Johnny Comes Marching
Home; Blowin' in the Wind; The Strangest'
Dream; and One Tin Soldier. C. Bauman, L.
Watson and J. Whitmore also played piano
solos.
A short play, written by Kim Medd, Krista
Laurie, Jenny Allan and Lisa Bailey, about
Edith Cavell; (a World War I heroine who
posthumously had a mountain in Alberta
named after her) was performed by eight of
the students. Krista Laurie and Jenny Allan
did the highland sword dance.
Finally, the wreath was placed before a
cross by Sandra Hessels and Leon Mac-
. Donald, and two minutes of silent prayer
and contemplation were observed by all.
The Remembrance Day theme provided a
very moving experience for all that were a
part of this assembly.
Yuths, give talk on highlights of trips

stallation of air conditioning, dehumidifica-
tion units and heat pumps at the Blyth and
