Jerry. of R.R. 5 Goderich, had open house at their home for Mrs. Jerry's mother, Mrs. Robert Daer, formerly of Goderich and now of Huronview, who celebrated her 95th birthday. During the afternoon, over 50 friends called to bring best .- viahes•and have.a short visit lovely in a pink flowered dress with corsage. She enjoyed herself to the fullest as she shook hands, chatted and introduced her room- mate at Huronview, Mrs. Mable Scott from Lon- desboro who was a former schoolmate and who also celebrated her 90th birthday this month. It was a pleasure to see Mrs. Daer looking so well and enjoying the af- ternoon. Mr. and Mrs. H.O. Jerry received the many friends and were assisted in the afternoon by Mrs. Daer's daughter, Marjorie, who with her husband Don Thompson of Thessalon visited for a few days. Also assisting were Mr. and Mrs. Jerry's daughter, Mrs.' Doug Soper of Mississauga and son Jim and his wife Sue of Colborne. -A family' birthday dinner was enjoyed in the evening. Mrs. Daer's sister, Mrs. Calvin (Kate) Cutt of Goderich also visited early in the afternoon as did Mrs. Keith Cutt of Goderich.

John Amigaulik Last Friday evening on the t.v. news broadcast at 6 p.m. an Inuit named John Amigaulik spoke on plans to divide the Northwest Territories in regard to voting. It was in the 1960s, when many lads learned to fly at the Sky Harbbr Airport, that three Eskimo men received their training there. First was Mark Markousiand next came his brother John Amigaulik, both from Frobisher Bay, Baffin Island and later Sandy Gordon from Ungava Bay. All three boarded at Tiger Dunlop Inn and met quite a few people in the area during their time of training. John has been on t.v. broadcasts several times and is apparently active in representing the interests of the Inuit people.
