(photo by Cath Wooden) Ticket sales up at Blyth Festival The Blyth Summer Festival recently an- nd'tinced that advance ticket sales are up 70 per cent from this time last year. Anne Mann, Box Office Manager of the Festival, assures patrons that, "There are still Pots of tickets available for all dates. However, I would advise patrons to make their reservations soon to" avoid disappointment." Subscription vouchers for four adniiss,ions to the .:plays are still available at a reduced price until July 4,• 1980. Ms. Mann also men- tions that the Festival has slightly changed the system of seat .reser- vation to better ac- commodate •patrons.' People may now reserve a seat number any time after 7 p.m. on the day of the performance. She says, "In the past, the time has been 6 p.m. This way, we hope patrons will have' more time to linger over supper before they come to the theatre to reserve their seats. People who are attending the Festival Country Suppers • -on Friday and Saturday nights will be allowed to reserve seats at 5:30p.m. on those days." However, as in past years, advance tickets will reserve admission only, and no actual seat reservations will be made before 7 p.m. on the performance date. Although advance sales are far ahead of last year, last minute patrons need not despair. For the first 'time, 30 "rush" tickets for each show will go on sale at 6:30 p.m. on the day of performance, and at 11:30 p.m. for matinee performances. Seat reservations for those tickets will be made as usual after 7 p.m. and noon for matinees. A number of Blyth and area women will be very busy this ,• summer because of the immense success of the Saturday night suppers served before the theatre during the 1979 season of the Blyth Summer Festival. More suppers and' a lunch before Thursday matinee performances have been added. Every Friday and Saturday night during the season, theatre goers will be able to partake of the traditional meal of meat. lots of salads, rolls, and home baked desserts. The dinners are served at 6 p.m. on those nights in a number of community and church halls in the Blyth area. Asimilar' meal is served at noon before the Thursday matinees. Reservations must be made at least two days in advance of the supper date, but as the suppers are very popular, patrons are advised to make their reservations as far in advance as possible. - NeESSIII1 PU.C.WATER CUSTOMERS N:`TACE RATE ADJUSTMENTS Due to the higher cost of providing service the Goderich P.U.C. has found it necessary to increase its water rates, effective with all billings issued on and after July 1st, 1980.

Most people don't want to talk about their birthdays after the thirty-ninth but since I'rn well past that one, I feel I can brag alittle. • There was the day when I remember saying. to my son, "Don't you DARE tell them how old you are,!", when they were trying to find out my "spent years", Now I don't care because he is in his fifties and that makes me older than the "second step", 49. F Anyway, three beautiful friends gave me a surprise birthday dinner party - which I will remember for many years, since it was the first one in a long, long time.
