John Pounder, proprietor of the Village Inn, had a flying visit to St. Petersburg too. Met Alan Galbraith the day after he and velyn returned from Mexico. Alan says ey love Mexico and have holidayed there .o often he can "get by" with his Spanish - at least to ask for more coffee, please. Brought a few things back for the store too. Marg Makins and Bill had a theatre week , in i,ondon. Makes you green to think of it. 1 Then a trip to Switzerland and a relaxing time. They brought a few treasures back for their store,, Times Places, and sold quite a few, when Marg left the door open to air the shop, which quickly brought in customers. Many of our businesses will be opening April 1, including Times and Places. April 1 is when the rejuvenated Albion Hotel hopes to open also. The new owners Kim Muszynski and John Rishworth have very appealing plans for this village land- mark. There is no thought of turning it into a trendy establishment rather they wish to of- fer comfortable accommodation, a tradi- tional style of Pub and first class dining, with a varied menu. Kim speaks with pride of his sister I,isa's.prowess as a cook, and she will be the chef, good news for diners. They are fitting up the second floor room over the doorway, so that it can be used to serve a Continental breakfast, guests will be free to take a tray to their rooms if they choose, or out on the balcony, which is -a very Canadian bit of architecture, luckily saved after damage to the structure. It ac- tually projects onto the street, but is permit- ted as long as it is maintained. Other proper- ties in town have similar property en- croachments. People were casual about these things in other days. rf Kim and ,John have had plenty of ex- perience in the hospitality field, basically in Calgary, where they both started their careers in 1977. Banff Springs Hotel is sure- ly a good training ground. They plan to have a staff of 10, but hope they will need more as their business prospers. We surely wish them well. United Church Barbecue Our churches are involved in hospitality too. The United Church beef barbecue on the first of July weekend is a great big opera- tion, a far cry from the suppers on the lawn of yesterday. Last year Trinity Anglican decided to honor St. Patrick with an Irish Stew supper in the parish hall. It was very popular, so the ladies are busy again. Janet McDougall and Hilda Bell are con- vening the affair. the Sunday School has been making decorations and there will he Irish music. They aren't really expecting Mr. Mulrony to sing "Irish Eyes", but he'll be welcome if he has a ticket. A limited number will he sold, to ensure there is plen- ty of fond. People wishing take-out dinners ran go at 4.30 p.m., regular dinners from 5 p.m. That's Tuesday March 17 at Trinity Anglican. Wear the green, lots of Ireland's hest settled in Huron County. Scotchmer Round -Up The Scotchmers are coming, 300 strong. ,July 25 is the date when the Scotchmer Round -Up will take place. They are all descendants or married to one of Alfred or Eleanor Scotchmer's family. Think of all those nice people in town at once. Personally I've known a lot of Scotchmers over the years, salt of the earth kind of peo- ple, never known one I didn't like. Many happy returns to you Edith Smith.

In the under 16 group, first prize of $20 went to John Burton and the second prize of $10 to Duane Siertsema. There were no entries in the senior division, 16 years and over. An invitation has been extended to the winners to attend the next LACAC meeting on April 2 to receive their awards. The subject was "What Bayfield's Heritage Means to Me", and this is what John Burton wrote: "Heritage - what we have. inherited; the conditions to which we are born. I am only 13 -years -old and have never ex- perienced war - nor do I want to. It is those that have that I thank for giving me the chance to grow up in this beautiful village, Bayfield. We, as Canadians, live under a democratic government and are relatively sheltered from the outside world. There is none more sheltered or more beautiful than this village and I hope I am never faced with a situation where I am forced to move. Even if I move out for work or travel I hope to maintain a cottage here in Bayfield. As you walk down Main Street you are confronted by various small shops, restaurants and inns each keeping with the look of the past, yet being well advanced for a village of this size. It's not just the outer appearance of Bayfield that is striking but the people that inhabit it. Shortly after I came to Bayfield a friend and I were walk- ing down a country road when a car drove slowly by. My friend.waved and the young lady in the car waved back. I asked him who she was and he answered that he didn't know but it was customary in Bayfield to greet passers-by. 1 was quite surprisea as coming from Windsor I had been taught to stay away from strangers and to avoid giving even a quick nod of the head. As my time in Bayfield lengthened I became more and more accustomed to the friendliness of the residents of Bayfield. The village, to me, became more and more a place where the storeowners know your name and you know theirs. My sister disagrees with me. She wishes to move back to Windsor and into our old (but fairly new) house probably because of the dishwasher, the barbeque, the roof that doesn't leak, etc. I have given up all that to move to Bayfield and I wouldn't go back in a 100 years. The village, the people, the committees and organizations, THIS is what Bayfield's heritage means to me." Postscript To The Essay Theme What does Bayfield's heritage mean to you? It's a question you well might ask. Con- serving the village identity is a very challenging task. For years the village went its way, and many were unaware of the singular characteristics which others were wanting to share. But a sense of pride was developing in preserving what once had been. Action was urgently needed to con- serve the village scene. Adopting was urgently needed to conserve the village scene. Adopting the means to achieve the ends, seemed simple, but oh dear no! Some were 'for', and others 'against', and some just 'didn't know'. At last, it took years, the first steps were achieved, though opinions still sometimes collide, but experience shows that change can occur to enhance and conserve village pride. Preserving the past for the future means building conserved and restored. Pursuing the means to make heritage work - its a challenge that can't be ignored.

A lesson on laundry was the basis of the hayfield 4-H Club's fourth meeting, which was held on March 2 at the home of Dawn De .long. The tips the members learned covered how to sort clothes, which temperatures to use to wash them, both of which will be of benefit for their home activity. The members also learned about drying and ironing. In the tip called 'storing it' they were shown how to make a pant hanger.
