BLUE WATER REST HOME
Another balmy week has
passed and according to some
of my notes, we were enjoying
the same lovely autumn weath-
er last year at this time.
On Monday evening films
were shown, "Adventure in
Newfoundland" and Aerial
Odyssey, the latter being a
picture of Newfoundland, life
and its surroundings there.
Following the films, refresh-
ments were served in the dining
room. I might mention that our
films reserved for Monday even-
ing, November 1, will be
"Children of the Mountains, "
a 13 -minute film, "Four ways
to Milford, " a 23 minute film
and "Christmas, a time of
Happiness for City Children, "
a 13 minute film. We invite
you and your family to come
and enjoy these films with the
Residents.
On Tuesday evening, the
children of the Gospel Hall,
Grand Bend, entertained the
residents to an evening of music
and song. We are pleased that
they care enough to give up an
evening for the residents here.
On Wednesday afternoon, the
Ladies Auxiliary chartered a
bus to take the residents out on
a sight seeing tour. There were
26 residents out for the ride
which took them around to
Dashwood, over to Grand Bend
and through the Pinery to view
the lovely autumn scenery.
We are grateful to the Auxiliary
for their generosity.
On Friday evening, bingo
was enjoyed followed by ref -

We wish to thank all of the
generous people in the surround-
ing area for their donations of
squash, flowers, tomatoes and
any other donations which we
ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS'
have received. If anyone has
an abundance of Chinese
Lanterns, Mrs. Siebert would
appreciate donations of some
to make centre pieces for the
residents dining -room tables.
On Sunday, we officially
celebrated a family Thanks-
giving dinner Here at the home.
One hundred and seventy-one
guests beside the residents sat
down to a smorgasbord dinner
of turkey and ham with all
the trimmings, as only Mrs.
Horn could prepare. We know
it gave many of our residents
a great lift to be able to sit
down to a table surrounded by
their family. We are indebted
to Auxiliary members, Mrs.
Thelma Thiel, Miss Mildred
Gingerich, Miss Verda Baech-
ler, Mrs. Martha Blackwell,
Mrs. Cleve Gingerich and Mrs.
Steven Gingerich for their assist-
ance in the dining -room and
kitchen for the afternoon. We
also want to thank John Warner,
Grand Bend, for providing din-
ner music on his electric organ
all through the dinner hour.
Many of us enjoyed his organ
music at the strawberry festival
as well and we are indebted to
him.
We are still working on our
fund raising project to buy a
small bus, and will be having
a Christmas draw to help this
project along. Next time you I
are in the Home, ask at the
office or tuck -shop for a ticket
on the quilt which was made
by the residents, second and
third prize will be an electric
tea kettle and half a dozen
steak knives.
I understand the Ladies Aux -

diary will also be selling tick-
ets on a beautiful hand -made
afghan made and donated by
Mrs. Bessie Currie, St, Marys.
Ask them for tickets. I believe
their draw will be made at
their annual bazaar to be held
at the Horne on Saturday, Nov-
ember 20. Please keep this
date in mind.
The Sunday evening chapel
service was conducted by Rev.
Paul Packman, Brucefield Unit-
ed Church, accompanied by
some of his choir members.
This was Rev. Packrnan's first
visit to take charge of the Chap-
el service.
I am sure our residents will
be looking forward to the goblins
visiting on-Hallow'een night
and will be prepared to shell
out.
