and VIEWS
By
Lance J. Reed, Superintendent
It is very hard to believe that
one year has rolled a r o un d.
It was 'on September 1 of last
year that I came to Zurich to
be superintendent and take up
duties in the temporary quart-
ers in the village. Since then
a lot •of wonderful things have
happened to me and I would.
like to thank all who have made
the first year such a wonderful
one. No one will ever know of
the joy and happiness that I
have found in this community.
I would like to extend a most
sincere thank you to the fol -
.lowing for having made my
birthday during August such a
tremorable one: to all the resi-
dents for the dinner and birth-
day cake; to the staff for the
party which was held at Nap
Corriveau's residence; to the
Zurich Mennonite WMSA for
their gift and to Mrs. Asa
Steckle for her "poetic" tribute.
Again thanks to you all for the
best birthday yet.
Do:ntations have been coming
to the Home and a 'thank you'
is extended to the following for
their contributions: Mrs. Calvin
Gingerich for beets and pre-
serves; Stan Smith for supply-
ing fresh fish for one meal;
Clarence Gascho who gave us
quite a number of baskets of
tomatoes and a quantity of
green beans from his store.
* :, *
Each week Phil Overholt has
been donating his staff and
equipment and has been pick-
ing up our garbage refuse free
of charge. Those responsible
for the Home are grateful to
:Phil for this service and extend
a sincere thank you. Since the
delivery service from the CNR
in Hensall has been cut off we
were finding it very difficult
in getting shipments from Hen-
sall to the Home. But in this
wonderful community there is
always some one who comes to
mar aid. Len Prang and Elroy
Desjardire have been very kind
in each donating their truck.
and allowing our maintenance
'¢ran to travel to the CNR and
pick 'up the shipments. Thanks
to both of you.
. s:
The Bean Festival is over for
another year. This was my first
one. My aching feet have never
forgiven me for offering my
services. However, I did enjoy
the day and maybe by next
year my feet will be ready for
another go. A thank you is ex-
tended to the Bean Festival
committee for the gift of a pot
of baked beans and a quantity
of salad. Only one of our resi-
dents was able to get down to
the festivities so through this
gift it let our residents know
Zurich people were thinking of
them on 'this big and busy day,
sand it gave them a taste of the
Festival.
Elsewhere, in this paper you
will find an advertisement con-
cerning what we all here hope,
will be e big day in the life of
the Home.. You will note the
'various activities planned for
the day. Several people have
asked about donations for the
community auction sale which
.Alvin Walper, auctioneer, has
so kindly donated his services
for. Any item that is saleable
will be welcome. Here are a
Sew suggestions: preserves, gar-
den fruits and vegetables, baked
goods, all types of furniture
and accessories, gardening
e q u i p m en t, linens, outdoor
farming equipment, just to
mention a few. Several people
have been asked about clothing
and .I would point out that if
we have a good quantity there
could be the possibility that we
would set up a rummage table
but this would depend on the
'response. I believe it has been
some years since there was a
community auction sale, so
surely in that time all readers
would have had any number of
stems 'collected at your house.
At an auction sale, it is stir -
prising what people like and
will !buy. It would be appre-
ciated .if you let the Horne know
of any items that you intend to
put into the sale. It is not
'necessary to know your name
but by telling us of your inter,
tions a list could be prepared
and Mr. Walper and I would
know what direction the sale
could poegibly head in. So why
not stars; now and look through
your •place and see what you
would like to send us for the
sale. .A. pick-up service is avail-
able if you have no way of
getting your donation to the
Home. Items for the sale can
be brought to the Home any
time from now until the day of
the sale. Let's all pitch in and
see if we can have the largest
—GAL TWO—NEWS AND Vie
community sale of any com-
munity around. I have already
had some items turned in to
me.
* :*
With regard to the pancake
supper mentioned in the ad, I
would point out that Aunt
Jemina will be cooking the pan-
cakes herself. It is not every
home that has the honor of a
visit from Aunt Jemina. Zur-
ich Centennial Band will play
through the supper hour.
*: :n *
In case of rain the day's ac-
tivities will go on as planned
only at the Zurich Community
Centre. All proceeds from the
day will go toward resident ac-
tivities at Christmas. Last year
at Christmas we only had one
wing of •our Home open but
a year later the entire Home
is open and a lot of decorations
will be needed. It would be a
wonderful treat to give each
resident a Christmas gift re-
membrance. The board of di-
rectors of the Home look for-
ward to your support and will
greatly appreciate any assist-
ance. If any person has any
questions regarding the day's
events do not hesitate to con-
tact me. Please make sure you
let your friends and relations
know of our plans so that per-
haps they can come and share
the day with us. Centennial
dress will be appreciated for
any visitors who would care to
wear it. Don't forget now, Cen-
tennial Day, September 16,
1967, starting at 2 p.m. on the
grounds of the Home.

Zurich Fair is fast approach-
ing. I don't want to see the
Home left out of the parade.
Would any farmer in the area
have a flat wagon and tractor
that we :could borrow? If so,
please call and let me know.

Throughout the summer we
have had many new residents
come in. At the present time
we only have eight beds left.
Any persons considering com-
ing to our Home this fall should
make an application now to en-
sure them of a place. I am
available anytime to discuss de-
tails with them.

Deepest sympathy is extend-
ed to the family of the late
Mrs. Jane Reid Brown, of St.
Marys, who passed away at the
Home during August. Mrs.
Brown is greatly missed by
fellow residents and staff.
"May the souls of the faithful
departed rest in peace."

tennial Day ad elsewhere in

Latest on the channel 3
Barrie affair: The cabinet is
supposed to hand the contro-
versy back into the lap of the
Board of Broadcast Governors.
Transport Minister Pickersgill
is reported to be planning to
leave the cabinet to become the
first president of the Canadian
Transport Commission, a still -
to -be -formed federal agency set
up by parliament last winter.
How's that for side-stepping
the issue? While the BBG
tackles the Barrie tower move
again, Jack will quit the cabi-
net and takes this new post.
The prime minister will then
have to name a new transport
miniter who, in all probability,
will not be a close friend of
the Barrie owners.
How's that for getting off the
hook and putting someone else
on it? Chances are that the
BBG will not hand the issue
back to the cabinet.
Perhaps it now becomes a
dead duck. I hope this is a
correct prediction.
We received a news release
from ABC-TV in New York the
other day and one paragraph
read: "In order that 'Fugitive'

special caution is needed. If
you must cross the road, walk
along the edge for about ten
feet in front of the bus where
the driver can see you. Look
left and right and proceed into
the roadway until you are level
with the left front fender of
the bus. When all traffic has
stopped in both directions, pro-
ceed across the road and con-
tinue to look left and right.
Walk smartly across the road.
Do not run. Never cross the
road behind the school bus.

I saw the last episode on
Kitebener's channel 13 last Sun-
day and again on Buffaloes
channel 7 two nights later.
Who knows? Perhaps the
Japanese and the Spaniards saw
it before we did.

The big show of the coining

in the top five.
