THURSDAY, JANUARY 28, 1966 ST, JOSEPH and DRYSDALE AL FRED OUCHARME Corretwondentl Correction Mr. Michael Hartman is em- ployed with the Bank of Nova Scotia in London and not with the Bank of Montreal as stated in Inst week's issue. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Burgess and their three children re- turned home to St. Joseph on Thursday last after spending two weeks in the sunny south, Mr. Burgess tells us the first snow they saw from this sunny period was when they arrived -closer to home. They also told us they had a very enjoyable and safe return to their home. Mr; and Mrs. Harry Deitrich and family, of the Goshen Line south, were Sunday last visitors with the latter's parents, Mr, and Mrs. Dolph Sopha, of this highway. The past week, Mr. and Mrs, E. Ducharme called at West- lake funeral hone to pay their last tribute to the late Mrs. Mabel Smith deceased. They also called•at Mr. Smith's home to offer their sympathy to hint and to his daughter, Mrs. Mae Cunningham. (Continued from last week) Pops had provided for the New Year's feast a fair supply of swamp whiskey which was brewed in the back part of some of the settlers' farms. They always had a large supply ion hand and prepared to serve the public. The price was 25c per gallon and if the supply was plentiful at the time of purchase the vendor would hand ,over an extra pint as a New Year's gift. Since the family did not arrived at the paternal home at the same time, Pops would hand out a touch to them accordingly as they ar- rived, and of course he followed the tradition of his day by tak- ing a sip himself and touching their glasses, which has many meanings. Most of them had large fam- ilies and by the time the last one came in, Pops was begin- ning to feel high. He then started boasting of his young days, his great ability and his great strength, fearing no one or anything that carne in his way. In all, he considered himself a bully. He also touched on his per- sonality as charming and being the winner of alI blondes and brunettes of his day. During this talk, Mum was hacking away at the meat which had to be carved, but after listening to his ways of charming the fair sex was almost too much for her to take but since it was New Years and perhaps one of her resolutions she pre- ferred to keep all within her- self, On Thursday last, a caller at the home of yours truly and Mrs. Ducharme was a well- groomed man wearing a uni- form of his rank, At first sight of the gentleman in question, before he introduced himself and the object of his visit at the Ducharme home, caused a little uneasiness as many tines uniformed men are law officers searching out victims guilty of some crime. But no, contrary, it was Mr. G. Meyers, a forest ranger who is stationed at the Pinery Provincial Park. He was a well-mannered pian who is writing a story of past incidents i ;,. .hick happened around Grand Bend and surrounding territory well over a century ago. Na- turally, during that period of time which had,passed on, and in writing history, help is al- ways needed. Being raised in the Grand Bend vicinity, I was able to give him some help in his collection, The ranger's DASHWOOD and DISTRICT Library Meeting The annual library meeting was held Saturday, January 22, at the library, Librarian Mrs. Ernest Koehler reported 62 juvenile readers, 21 adults, with a circulation` of 3264. This was a narked increase over 1964. The librarian was re-engaged. New books will be bought. The board members are: Mrs. Irvin Rader, chairman; Harold Schroeder, representative of the town; Mrs. Ernest Koehler, sec- retary and librarian; Mrs. Mer- rill James, Mrs. Leonard Schenk, Mrs. Mervyn Tiernan and Mrs. Howard Klumpp, di- rectors. Personals Mrs. Mary Martene was pleas- antly surprised January 18 on the occasion of her 89th birth- day. Members, of her family, Mr. and Mrs, Tom Hern, Sheila and Allan, of Zion; Mr. and Mrs. Cliff Salmon and family and Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Mar- tene and family called on her and spent the evening. Mrs. Martene, who is very active, does all her own work. Mr. and Mrs. Norman John- ston, missionaries in Bolivia, on furlough, visited with relatives in the community last week prior to returning to their duties. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Weiberg and family, of Waterloo, visited with Fred Weiberg and Mr. and Mrs. Victor Tyler over the week -end.

Mr. and Mrs. Albert Erb, ac- companied by Mr. and Mrs. visit was interesting and wel- comed back. We found Mr. Meyers a well - versed person in the walks of life and well able to discuss matters of the present day. Mr. Ducharme was greatly im- pressed by his questions re- garding the ways of those early settlers and their ways of liv- ing which differed much to the ways of the present day. We hope Mr. Meyers will gather enough information to complete the work he has undertaken, which requires much time and as well, tedious work to sum all incidents together to make it valuable to the public. Garry Albrecht, of Kitchener, left Friday evening for a trip to Florida, Mrs, Mary Hey spent a week with her sister, Mrs. Myrtle ITay at Zurich. LIody Finnegan, of Toronto, spent the week -end with Bill Clarke.

DEAR DORIS — This might sound silly, but I am 13 and think I am in love. Both my parents work on the night shift and I am alone in the night. I sit and try to do my homework but I can't con- centrate on anything. Now I have been told that be is going to move out of town. Since I heard that, I can't sleep and I hardly eat a thing. I've tried to forget him but I can't because every time I turn around, I am thinking about him. Am I in love, lonely, or just plain nuts? On the Verge DEAR ON THE VERGE — Not nuts. Not in love. But certainly Ionely. Because you spend much time alone, your thoughts turn for comfort to the most interesting thing in your life — a glamor boy. Probably much older than you are! If you could talk it out with Mom or Dad, you'd feel. better. And they could help you see the difference between what you feel and real love. As it is, I have to do it. I'm sending you my leaflet, "What Is Love?", which I hope will help. Two night shifts in one home are at least one too many. You need a parent around. Show them this letter. DEAR DORIS —. Sometimes it surprises me the things peo- ple find to worry about. I am 78. I had bone cancer in 1955 and my jaw was re- moved from socket to chin. I was asked to go to local hos- pital some time ago as a few doctors wanted to see me. My doctor told me I looked well. I told him I was in my garden a good deal and that I had faith. Must have been about 40 doctors who heard me. I carry a heavy cross but each evening I smile and say, "Thank you, Jesus" as I crawl into bed. I live alone. I have my garden, my friends and my drugs. Quite Content DEAR CONTENT — Bless you! Your doctors would be the first to agree that faith and good cheer bring about mir • acles. * * DEAR DORIS—I am 46 years old and my children are grown up. All my life I have found it hard to make decisions, be- cause I am not sure of myself. I'd like to know .if you could tell me how to I can get self-confi- dence. I have started to take a typ ing course. I don't know if I can get good enough at it to get a job. What if I can't? It seems to me it' will just be an- other time that I've made the wrong decision. I always felt that I was cheat- ed by not being able to stay at high school until I graduated. Unsure DEAR UNSURE — If you think making decisions comes easy to anybody, think again! You couldn't have raised a fam- ily without having made many right decisions all along the way. I'ni not doubting your infer- iority feelings. Lack of matric- ulation often does this to peo- ple—even the extra brilliant! You've got 25 to 30 good years ahead of you, according to vital statistics, Now's the time to get cracking with typ- ing and other spare time fun and games. Improving your- self will bring excitement and new life to you — and in all probability, a job. Good luck! 5 -` Vii' DEAR DORIS — My mother died when I was born and 1 was raised by grandparents. My father has remarried to a woman not much older than I am. Now that I am getting mar- ried, I don't want her as "moth- er of the bride", although we get along quite well. Would it be proper for my grandmother and my stepmother to both be the last ones into the church before the wedding march starts? Granny's Girl DEAR GIRL — Quite proper. Have your stepmother escorted in by the usher second to last. Then Granny should be the very last one, as she is appearing "in loco parentis"; that is, in the place of your mother. Step- mother sits in the second or third row, and your father joins .her there after giving you away. EMMANUEL EVANGELICAL United. Brethren Church ZURICH Rev. M.
