No matter what kind of a home you are selling or buying, no matter *hat the age of the house or what market conditions are or what season it is, .the home protection_ plan: hefps people, according to Deb Shewfelt of W.J.Hughes,Realty Ltd. "It protects the buyer and the seller of any '-existing home," says Shewfelt. He explains that .the seller puts the plan on his house "at absolutely no cost during the period of the listing". When the house is sold, the cost of $295 for one year's Dungannon.. from page 6 business were discussed: (a) the beautiful dahlia quilt, completed, except for its border, was displayed. Titk- ets are to be sold on it and the draw will be made at the August birthday celebration; (b) the tied quilt has already been sold; (c) all are welcome to attend the Summary Day for the Indoor Plants and Macrame course at ' Wing - ham; (d) the next 4-H club is to be Outdoor Living includ- ing camping, with the lead- ers being Mrs. Wm.

Mrs. Clifford Purdon gave a splendid motto on Citizen- ship as it. concerns .young citizens, mature citizens and protection for the buyer of the home is paid by the seller at closing. "pit gives the seller a competitive advantage over other sellers," claims She.wfelt, "because it gives the purchaser a one-year protection plan on plumbing, the hot water heater, the electrical' system, the sump pump, the heating system, the central---a-ir-... conditioning, the heating and cooling ductwork and any built-in appliances such as an oven, a cook top range, a micro -wave .oven, a:dish- washer or .a garbage disposal." . As an extra- bonus, 15 days after the real estate agent it authorized to sell a home, the .seller gets, free of charge, protection until closing on the plumbing system, the hot water heater arid the electrical system. In all cases, there is a $50 deductible clause on each service call paid for under the home protection plan. Shewfelt claims this new tool for selling - and buying - homes, will "catch on". Our industry is changing so much, by 1985 we'll hardly know it," says Shewfelt. senior citizens. All can help make Canada a land of which we can, be proud. The roll call was a display of stamps from foreign coun- tries, and these included Spain, Turkey, Japan, also England, Scotland and collection of Canadian stamps. Another display was a collection .of thimbles shown by Mrs. Cecil Blake,. and a short history of thim- bles given. Mrs. Purdon thanked her by adding to this collection. During a projector delay Mrs. Hugh McWhin- ney conducted two contests, one on music, the other on birds. Mrs. Purdon. .introduced her guests, Mr. and Mrs. Harry Burgsma,.-who showed interesting pictures of Hol- land and _Spain. Besides the street scenes, canals, the windmills, and tulips, the ar- chitecture of buldings, cath- edrals in particular, held the group in awe. Mrs. Alvin Kerr expressed thanks and gave them a gift. Lunch hostesses were Mrs. C. Purdon, Mrs. Rus- -----'- sell Alton,, Mrs. "Wm. "Stew- art and Mrs. Robt. Irvin.
