Zurich Citizens News, 1977-02-16, Page 5Varna by Mrs. lith Chessell Returning last week from a holiday in Florida were Rev. & Mrs. Alex Taylor, Mr, & Mrs. Robert Stirling, and Mr. & Mrs. Wayne Stirling and family. Arnold and Nora Keys returned on Sunday from a trip to Hawaii. While there they went on a panoramic view of the island and visited on three of the islands. They took in a "Luau", a must for everyone, and were most im- pressed with their visit to the Polynesian Culture, forty miles out of Waikiki. It is run by the Mormon church. University students make money for their education by taking tourists on the "parade of canoes" where they see examples of the homes and cultures of six different Polynesian groups. In the evening there is a performance of native dances with colorful costumes and a beautiful setting. They met many Canadians in Hawaii. Congratulations to Lorie Consitt who passed her skating test for a Dutch Waltz, last Wednesday.

Peck Appliances) have finished renovating their store and are hoping to open for business next Monday, February 21. There is still a familiar look about the store with the shelves still lining the walls, although some of them have been fitted with doors. The lunch counter and -stools are still there, and are painted a gay orange colour. Along with the radios, vacuum cleaners, and household appliances, there will be macrame hangers and ceramics displayed in the front window. We wish Bob and Jim much success in their new location. On Saturday evening Scott Consitt's hockey team, the Clinton Bantam A team played against their fathers with the dads winning 6-5.
