A LETTER FROM DORIS
Villagers will
miss Alex McAlister
By Doris Hunter
HAYFIELD - Our friend, Alex McAlister,
has died. We are dimenished by his going.
and 1 do not mean in numbers.
His contribution to the•life of our village
has been very effective. A man of culture,
he formed a discussion group several years
ago, where the stimulus of others' opinions
on subjects of importance could be enjoyed.
An author himself, he was a faithful
member of the library reading club. The
Historical Society and the Hayfield 'Garden
Club were enriched by his active involve-
ment with them.
His artistic nature found a rewarding
outlet in the exquisite photography he
achieved.
We could continue to cite his many in-
terests, but really his most important role in
Hayfield, was that of good, kind and
thoughtful friend.
Rae Fraser has scored a coup for the
Hayfield Historical Society. Program con-
venor again this year, he has arranged for
many interesting people to address the
organization. On September 28, he will have
Ian Wilson, Provincial Archivist here to tell
us about the expanding facilities for On-
tario's own memorabilia and the uses
available.
It really is a coup to have him come to
Hayfield, as unlike many government

departments, those in charge of the Provin-
cial Archives do not have a roster of public
speakers.
Member or not of the Society, you should
circle the date, September 28, the fourth
Monday in the month, to attend this special
meeting.
This is the answer, to those ingenious
visitors, who still ask us, "Whatever do you
do in the winter." We have several very in-
teresting organizations, both secular and in
our churches which keep us busy throughout
the year.
Our splendid Agricultural Fair did not
just happen overnight. Congratulations are
very much in order for President Rick
Penhale, his board of directors, and all the
workers, who were responsible for those
beautifully arranged exhibits, the work of
those who care enough to enter the various
categories.
The parade, was certainly one of the best,
ably arranged by Rae Fraser and his com-
mittee. Contestants, could really be more
helpful, by arriving on time for the judging.
No one likes to see a child overlooked, but
when they come at the last minute it is very
frustrating. Punctuality is just as important
for summer events, as for school.

Saturday night at the movies. We think

The first Wheels To Meals luncheon was held at the Bayfield Com-
munity Centre on August 19 with a good turnout. The event, spon-
sored by the Bayfield Ever Young Club and Town and Country
Homemakers, provides an opportunity for those who are able to get
out and about to enjoy a hot meal with other seniors. As well, the
Come on out
•
By Helen Owen
BAYFIELD - The community centre was
a busy place on August 19, when the first of
the senior citizens' diners club luncheons
was introduced.
Among the guests were David. Harvey,
Program Supervisor from the Ministry of
Community and Social Services and Jean
Young, Executive Director of Town and
Country Homemakers. Reeve David
.Johnston acted as Master of Ceremonies.
There was a good attendance and there
was no doubt that every one enjoyed the
meal which had been prepared by Dawne
Erb and a group of volunteers including
Wynn Graham, Mavis Freeman, Melissa
Kurtz Gail Grant and Joanne Telford.
Music was provided by Grace Dollery.
From now on the meal will be served on
Thursdays at the community centre at 12:30
p.m. and they do need to know by Monday of
each week how many people are proposing
to attend. If you are there, please tell us if
you are coming the next week and do tell
other people about the diners club. For those
unable to get out we are also able to offer a
delivered meal to your home. Transport is
available for those who require it.
It was appropriate that the first luncheon
coincided with the fall fair, as it provided an
opportunity to publicize the program with a
float in the paradg {.which won second prize ).

You don't have to be a senior to contribute.
A big thank you to all who helped to make
the occasion such a success - and to those
who came - keep coming and tell your

Congratulations to Harry's Crust Rollers.
This past week they took part in the tourna-
ment at Clinton and with victories over
Stanley (10-5) and Clinton 116-2 ), emerged
as winners of the championship. The team
was presented with a trophy, and each in-
dividual member received a pin. It was a
triumphant conclusion to their season.
ivext week the Squirts will take part in the
tournament at Benmiller.
Celebrations at St. Andrews
On August 23, Rev. John Hoekstra
welcomed the many people who had come to
St. Andrew's United Church to share in
celebrating the 85th anniversary of the
church building.
It was a remarkable program composed
entirely of local talent. The 20 items were
presented with spontaneity, especially as
the performers themselves were not aware
of the order in which they would be called
upon, and this informality added to the
overall friendliness of the occasion.
The Anglican Church contributed with a
very spirited performance by organist Ron
(;reidanus who presented one of his own ar-
rangements for piano, and by the Gaelic
song given by the Rev. Aubrey Bell and his
wife Hilda.
Barbara Young brought greetings from
the Presbyterian church, and creditable
performances came from three young peo-
ple, Dwayne Siertsema on the electric
guitar and Malcom Getty and Andrew Dunn •
who played violin solos.
The extensive talents of the Dundas fami-
ly were evidenced in several ways. Bill, ac-
companied by his sister Ruth sang a piece
from Handel's Messiah, and his son Jamie
gave an accomplished performance when
he sang and accompanied himself on the
piano. Bill's parents then joined him with is
sister for another item. At the conclusion of
this he took the opportunity to thank his
parents for the wonderful musical
background in which they had been reared,
and also congratulated them on the celebra-
tion of their golden wedding.
In contrast to the music, Rae McFarlane
read a story about a church organist and his
organ pumper and the program concluded
with the spirited playing of Steve Argyle.
violin, and Rose Taman, piano.
Rev. Hoekstra thanked all those who had
taken part and congratulated them on their
many and varied talents, and also those who
thad cornett)* share the oecasionk: the final
touch to a most enjoyable evening was the
social half hour with refreshments provided
by the church ladies.
