The Goderich Signal-Star, 1986-09-03, Page 16
PAGE 16 -GODERICH SIGNAL -STAR, WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 3, 1986 tha' s niece rememb One season ended - another started. After the taste of fall that we had, I wondered how soon the winter would come. This weekend was just right for the ball tourney and I believe everyone enjoyed the long weekend. My niece Marion and her hubbie Ernie, come from Windsor every year for the "ball games" - but we have all enjoyed the weekends so much, for such a long time, that it has become a nice habit. Since Walt is unable to go alone, Ernie has always been here to take him and they both really enjoy it. In the meantime, Marion and I have a great deal in common - she loves to sing, (has a beautiful voice) and knit and crochet and I like painting and meeting people. We can't cbmbine our talents but we surely have a great time together. Of course I was happy to show her how the Port of Goderich is growing, then,we made the "yard" sales all over town,: ()lithe side. Also the harbour. Then on Sunday, the Flea. Market (that has no fleas! ) We had a nice luncheon then slipped down to Bayfield . That is always interesting since the little shops are so inviting. Back, in Goderich we still had a lot to see. At the Har- bor again we couldn't believe the high water level. Standing on the pier Marion said, "When I was a kid I was afraid t dive in, as the water ROUND 'N ABOUT With Martha Rathburrs was about six or seven feet below, so I would climb down the ladder to a spot where you could stand - and then dive in." That spot - was just wide enough to stand on - and not far from the ladder, so she told rne. I Wouldn't know - but I'll bet there are a great many grown `kids' who know just where it was! She remembered the old green ' or was it red? - bathhouse, (change rooms) and the store there, where you bought chocolate bars and enjoyed the Juke Box - or radio music. Some of the kids were dancing. Everyone had fun. Now she could bend down and touch the water with her fingers - while standing on the dock. Amazing! Scary, I say, since I, also, remember you could never stand on the dock and touch the water. What's hap- pening to our Great lakes? What is happening to our weather all over North America? Everyone has a different version - no two alike. Anyway, we are qpn- Larry Gibson catches whopping salmon High lake levels are causing great pro- blems for many of the cottagers living on the south side of the Nine Mile River. Norval and Ruth Anderson have closed their cottage for ,the season due to high water levels and flooding. Paul Johnston's van'is stranded to the top of all four tires. A very real problem for many of these people. Communion was observed at Christ Church Sunday at 9:30 a.m. with Rev. Wm. Craven conducting the service. It was an- nounced that next week the service will be held at 2 p.m. Rev. R. Crocker will be preaching. Roy and Bessie Belinger have returned from a trip to Lancaster, Ontario, visiting their son Mike, Janet and children. Larry Gibson, and his wife Ann and fami- ly were on vacation at the cottage of Kay Fennel, Ann's mother. Larry an ardent fisherman, while fishing at the Maitland River in Goderich, caught a whopping 22 Ib. 2 oz. salmon. The fish didn't give up easily either! Congratulations, Larry. PORT ALBERT NEWS rs diving into cerned because as one friend said, "if it is four feet above here, it will be that higp at Niagara Falls - and what can be happening there?" "All this water has to leave us by way of the St. Lawrence Seaway there nothing we can do about it." One gal said, "Pull the plug!" "Great idea," said I. So, you can see we, too, are worried. le While at the dock (the Harbor) people were asking about that - monument? Where one could sit. Is there anything more to be done to it? - outside of protecting the wood from the weather - mostly where the boards had the ends cut off - (they really showed up minus protection). I was surprised that people would be so concerned. They liked what has been done but were concerned that in a very short time the wood would soon be rotting. The fact that they were interested enough to ask questions and make suggestions on how to protect it from the weather, really pleased me. The fact remains that a great many peo- ple love the Port of Goderich - so many still say, "When I retire I want to come back here." I hope they will ... and I hope I'm around to greet them! Enjoy each day as it they comes, tteli getting But shorter every day smile anyway. Community dedicates park to Gerry By Blanche Deeves .

Lifesaver tags identify emergency. situations Statistics show that one in five children will end up in an emergency room sometime this year. Almost all of them who are not with parents have none or incomplete emergency information, making more dif- ficult the performance of police, paramedics, emergency room nurses and doctors. Due to the fact that today's society is more mobile and that there are more work- ing and single parents, it is important for children to carry some type of emergency information with them at all times. Lifesaver Charities, a non-profit organiza- THE SHAW FAMILY WELCOMES YOU! 9-6 9-9 10-6 •Open Daily •Thursday & Friday tion, has designed a small machine washable tag, a little larger than aostage stamp, which can be filled out by Parents with an ordinary ball point pen and sewn in- to clothing or implemented in footwear. This tag gives emergency information to emergency service personnel to maximize care if a child is injured. Lifesaver Charities has arranged for. these Emergency Alert Tags to be given away free at schools, police, block parents and K -Mart Stores. Lifesaver tags are always free.

How many emotions and fears pass through our consciousness at that moment? Do our family and friends view us in a new "light?" How different are we really from the day before we found out our diagnosis? Are we strictly victims of our condition, environ- ment and prognosis? Do we have any say in what happens from here on? These are very important questions which will come at some point in most of our lives. They will be explored at a three part series called "Hope for Life" concerning positive help for individuals coping with personal stress at the 2 l3ayf eld by RuthAnnfor Ironsidealth eR.N. N.Hntre at .C. on Sunday, Sept. 7, 14 and Nov. 9. When and how do we begin to examine the meaning and value of our life? How do our thoughts affect issues we face? Do we give up hope with the diagnosis or what? What care we do for ourselves right now? There are answers., to these questions ranging from nutrition to breathing and relaxation to just talking and sharing feel- ings. Also, learning to use the, power of mind, twith eate the response we really want ager', in our lives. These tools help us realize our own power and bring into a finer focus the true healer that works in eaGh of us. For inforririon and preregistrations phbfe 519-482-5415.
