Joe Koene At the January meeting of the Bayfield Fire Department the colleagues of Joe, Koene were saddened to learn of his resignation as he had decided to step down after 18 years, and as he said, let someone younger take his place. During that time, Mr. Koene has been on call 24 hours a day, and his unfailing service is much appreciated by the fire department and the village. f The Bayfield Historical Society elected their new executive at their January 26 meeting.

(Anne Narejko photo) A letter from Doris By Doris Hunter BAYFIELD - "Happiness is living in Bayfield" the motto Joyce.and Budd Burt have, says, well where in lies that Bayfield Happiness? It is many things for me right now, it is being able to write for the paper again, because so many of you have taken the trouble to write to me and to the newspapers, to say nice things when I meet you, and to have your phone calls, about events you're sure we'd all want to know. It has been heartening. There is a whimsical little notice board beside Dr. Shepherd's office. It was once our post office with Ernie Hovey as postmaster, fresh from his war time service. Florrie Od- dleifson made the sign with a jolly Town Crier ringing his bell, adorning it. The post office was, and is the source of news in the village. The postmaster became a sort of father figure for us all. He cared, he knew where people lived in a town without street signs and you phoned him at his store to relay messages to families here, without telephones. Times change, and an attractive new post office is now an addition to Main Street. Postmaster Ken cares about us too and it is a forum each morning, good news and bad. This morning for exa le, we heard that the tumor Jessie Godbolt s been suffering • restgns The sound of the alarm on .January 20 was to the home of Kelso Fitzsimons. Coals and ashes had been set outside on a wooden step but nothing serious developed and the situa- tion was soon in hand. Perhaps it is appropriate to remind those clearing out ashes that they should be set right away outside and not on a deck or any wooden structure. csk R v E TRAVEL. - nava.

He slip- ped on the floor at the store and so the am- bulance was called. Abby Champ, bride elect of James Arm- strong, was honored Tuesday evening at a bridal shower, held in the Church parlour of St. Andrew's United Clfurch. Hostesses were Debbie Penhale and Brenda Armstrong. The room was beautifully decorated in red, pink and white and the guests were amused by the reading given by Carol Pen - hale, entitled "Levinsky Goes to the Wed- ding". Wendy Johnston read the address to the bride, who was assisted in opening the gifts by her sister Mary Lea Champ, Debbie ahgd Brenda and Abby replied with many thanks for the lovely and varied gifts she received. A delicious buffet lunch was served. Sunday afternoon the bride and groom were entertained at the home of Doris Hunter at a "Soup and Sherry'# party. Guests enjoyed the music beautifully played on the Pan Pipes, a most intriguing instrument. The Bayfield Lioness group consists of community minded individuals who are to be commended for their many ac- complishments and for the countless hours they devote to this community. We know about many of their deeds but there is one we were not aware of. Therefore, you can imagine the surprise and pleasure of Bill and, Marg Makins of Times and Places, as they were the recipients of an award for the "Best Christmas Decorated Business" in the village. They want to say a public thank you to the Lioness not just for this award but for the many things they do for this great village of Bayfield. P.S. We surely would be interested in knowing who the culprits are who have such a propensity and/or obsession with stealing Christmas light bulbs. The Makins_ had to replace over 60 of them.
