(Shelley McPhee photo) Happy events By Doris Hunter A nasty accident occurred when Mr. and Mrs. Jack Beatty had gone out to enjoy a meal away from'home. Adeline missed a second step in the restaurant, fell and broke her arm in more than one place. She was taken to University Hospital, where she is recuperating. A miserable experience, especially with spring finally here and Adeline's beautiful collection of roses will be calling for her attention. Dim lighting seems to be the norm • in restaurants today, promotes intimate conversation they say, however,. it can turn from romantic glow to gloom and groping, surely different floor levels should be well lighted. On a more cheerful theme, one of our young men, whom we have watched with affection growing up among us, Marvin Merner is ' about to be married to his long time sweetheart Wendy Tyndall of Clinton. They have set the date for April 6, a romantic anniversary for them. Marvin's sisters; Valerie, Jody, Cathy and his sister- in-law another Kathy entertained at a miscellaneous sli,Qwer for Wendy at the liome'of.his parents, Joan and Jack Merner. It was really a farnily party, Joan created the traditional hat of parcel ribbons, while Marvin's niece Angie Campbell presented many lovely gifts to Wendy. AIL kinds of • good wishes to the bride aha only yesterday that ' Joan created those marvellous floats for the Lions Club parade, a memorable one, was the old woman who lived in the shoe, and Marvin was one of that happy family. Well, never a dull moment, for the Merner family, last week their youngest daughter Jody, competing in the Sarnia Skating Competition won a gold medal, and came fifth in the final skate off, surely an achievement. The village is proud of you Jody. One of our good citizens, Grace Duggan. has now moved to Huronview, having had a long siege in Clinton Hospital. She will be glad to see her many Bayfield friends there. Mrs. Peg Willock has returned to the .village, after an operation in Wellesley Hospital, Toronto, followed by a recuperation 'period at . St. John's Convalescent Hospital near Richmond Hill. She is well and happy to be home to greet the spring.

International Youth Year By Helen Owen An order in Council has proclaimed 1985 as International Youth Year, so designated by the United Nations. The Lt. Governor of Ontario, John B. Aird defines this as an opportunity to "encourage all communities, educators, business and in particular youth to create opportunities which involve young people's participation and which salute their achievements." Frank •Drea MPP, parliamentary Assistant to the Premier of Ontario invites participation in this special year which will focus attention linthe' asnirations and concerns of young.people 15-24 years of age. Part of the theme will be appreciation of the contributions which young people demonstrate in their own communities, And it is hoped that leaders will support programs specially designed to highlight achievement and talents. It also means the creation of opportunities for young people to realize their potential and build for the future. A guide has been prepared which offers suggestions for schools, community organizations and businesses. It not only presents a number of ideas for implementation but also indicates where current activitiesmay be amended to enlarge the programs. There is a wealth of material to be explored inviting initiatives from young people themselves as well as those in the community prepared to participate. Copies of the Guide, a free tape , of the • theme song, extra promotional materials and information are available from: INTERNATIONAL YOUTH YEAR, 99 Wellesley Street West c/o Room 1332, Whitney Block, Queen's Park, Toronto, Ont.

More signs of spring By Helen Owen Snowdrops, croci and bulbs are beginning to make their first appearances, the willows assume a new aspect and the squirrels and birds are also signalling spring is here. Dog owners will also observe a tendency for their animals to go off on their own pursuits, if not restrained. In fact it is reported that one dog bit a boy on his back during the course of last week. At this time of year this is not an uncommon problem but straying dogs will be picked up and taken to the pound so its as well to ensure that the opportunity does not arise. xxx The many friends of Miss Kay Reid,. in Bayfield and elsewhere, will be pleased to learn that following her admission to University Hospital in London last week, she is now making satisfactory progress. •Her condition followed a severe attack of influenza, but true to form she is tackling , her indisposition with determination and optimism.
