HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1986-05-07, Page 101 Page 10—CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, WEDNESDAY, MAY 7, 1986 BayfiId Bagli Betty Cardno speaks to historical societ When the historical society held their monthly meeting April 28, Betty Cardno was the speaker. Her subject was heritage and it was one on which she was well qualified to speak having recently completed a six year term on the board of the Ontario Heritage Foundation. She began by giving a brief history of the Foundation which started 18 years ago. The increased demands on the organization she said, had in fact resulted in the Ontario Heritage Act which increased the respon- sibilities and resulted in the formation of LACAC's which came under the local municipalities. Describing the board, Mrs. Cardno said it was made up of some 30 members from across the province, and consequently representing a number of different skills - archeology, architecture, historical exper- tise, etc. Today there was a greater awareness in local communities with regard to conservation, but there was still a long way to go in increasing this interest and im- plementing ways to preserve heritage. The slide illustrations which Mrs. Cardno showed ranged from a pumping station in the Ottawa Carleton area to town balls, private dwellings, the Manitou pictograph project, to the work of a marine conserva- tion group. It was stressed that the expertise of archeological research played a big part in research which enabled not only building to be restored, but also provided fascinating information on the economic, social and home life of the period. Mrs. Cardno gave an outline of the Foun- dation's work in public relations with the setting up of conferences and display of posters in order to encourage people of all ages to support and become involved. She also described some of the better known pro- perties and lands which had now become part of the Heritage trust program, in- cluding the Niagara Apothecary store ac- quired in 1969 which contained the original interior fittings and dispensary. Another was an 116 -year-old Victorian house in Spadina complete with stables and coach house, the entire estate encompassing some 5.7 acres of land. The unique Winter Garden Theatre, built in 1913, was another building which had been restored to its former glory. Altogether, she said the OHF manages some 29 properties. Other gifts to the Foundation were musical instruments, sonie rare and lovely specimens and a special section had been set up to deal with these. In addition the work of over 100 artists was now enjoyed on a wide scale since these were on loan to museums and universities. She concluded her talk with reference to the natural heritage, as exemplified by the water fall at Deep Wood Creek, as well as • flora and fauna representative of different areas and sometimes exclusive so that en- suring their continuity was a project to safeguard them for future generations. Auction The next meeting of the Bayfield Garden Club will be on May 12, at 8 p.m. in the municipal building. It's the time of year when gardening is one of the foremost items in people's minds, so here is a wonderful opportunity.

(David'Emslie photo) Couple mark 50th anniversary By Doris Hunter BAYFIELD - Brigadier Morgan and Edith Smith with their family entertained at a reception and dinner party to celebrate 50 years of marriage. Morgan's brother the Rev. Moore Smith and his wife from Lakefield were there, as well as two of Edith's sisters, Orrie Warren, from Toronto and Kay Stevenson with her husband Jack from Owen Sound, and their daughter Phyllis with lots of memories of other days. ,Two daughters, Sally with her husband David Koonce of Washington D.C. and Deb- bie Boyce with the youngest member of the family, Graham, from Vancouver, were at the head table with son Gerald and his wife Arm from Toronto. Granddaughters Abbie Champ and Cathie Smith and grandson Adam Champ added greatly to the couple's happiness. Gerald acted as Master of Ceremonies for the occasion and after paying tribute to a beloved father and mother, he called on the bridegroom to relate some of his thoughts. Memories of college days and a long engagement due to life in the Depression, when no one could afford the responsibility. of marriage, were part of the story. There was no mention of his distinguished military career, but a heartfelt appreciation of the friends they hold dear in Bayfield was his 'theme. His brother, Moore, had some amusing reminiscences, as well as Brigadier Cliff and Elva Metcalf, while a spontaneous "They are jolly good fellows" spoke well of the warm feelings shared by all for these good citizens. People used to say they hoped the world , would be a better place because they had lived in it. Certainly Bayfield has been a bet- ter place since the Smiths came to join in our joys and sorrows over these many years. Villagers saddened by death By Doris Hunter BAYFIELD - Word events sometimes make usfeel that our local concerns are of no importance, yet day to day life must go on and our care for those around us continue. ' On May 2 the campers at _ the Old Homestead were saddened by the death of Earl Carling, who has been coming to the, camp from London for many years. He was the victim of a heart attack, always a shock to the family and friends. Then, during the evening of May 3, after a visit to the Sunset, Bayfield's much loved Elva Metcalf took a very bad tumble when she got out of her car to check on a for rent sign. Once again the village is thankful for the presence of Dr. Shepherd who was soon on the scene. She has a broken hip' and is in University Hospital, London.
