First at the Little I Inn, Mrs. Gwen Pemberton acted as chairman arid intro- duced Mr. Ed Oddleifson, the Reeve of the village, who wel- comed the crowd and explain- ed the idea of these plaques, one had been placed on the "Hut" the home of Mr. and Mrs. Carl Deihl and more re- cently one on the new Post Office. Mr. Oddleifson introduced Mrs. Betty Burch who gave a brief history of •the Little 1 Inn. The first Hotel was called "The Commercial". In the "News Era" of May 23, 1888, it was stated that Mr. Bailey "has completed extensive im- provements and can accommo- date lots of Yankees and Britishers". Shortly after that a row of trees was planted and all that remains of them is the lovely willow tree in front: Next it was named the "Lakeview but didn't succeed. In 1941, Mr. and Mrs. George yi Little bought it and thus came the "Little Inn". In recent years the Inn has been owned by three "Ruths". Ruth Hayman, Ruth Harris and the present owner Miss Ruth Wallace who is now running it with dignity and grace, keeping the tradition of excellent meals in lovely ;; surroundings. Miss Ruth Wallace unveiled the plaque. ' The officials and the crowd now moved up the street to. the Albion Hotel. Here Mrs. Alma Bassett, whose parents, Mr. and Mrs. Hugh McKay were owners of this historic hotel, told some of the his- tory. She recalled the horse and buggy slays when sales- men, came and stayed regular- ly. Then cars came and things changed but the hotel has remained much the same keeping to the old traditions that makes such a place unique. Mrs. Myrtle Robinson is the present owner and her son Murray (Bud) assisted her grandson, Charles (Chuck) in cutting the ribbon to unveil the plaque. The Historical Society was pleased with the interest shown and the large number of people who came, it was a beautiful day and made one thankful for the heritage handed to us. Cake and cider were served at the Municipal Building by the Historical Society. The Thanksgiving Service was held in Bayfield Baptist Church on Sunday with the Pastor, Rev. Brian Harrison as speaker. He took his text from II Corinthians, 9, verse 15. Thanks be to God for His un- speakable gift. He said there is only one thing that everyone everywhere could give thanks for right now, except the Salva- tion provided for everyone who will accept Christ as their personal Saviour. Instead of their regular meet- ing Friday night the Bayfield. Baptist Young People went to Goderich to the Evangelical meeting held in Calvary Baptist Church.

T -A photo Introducing the 9 . ,test aid to litter p olio sin the rerllidble pop bottle_ e refillable pop bottles Remember the days when all pop bottles were returnable and refillable? Your Ontario Ministry of the Environment wants to bring those days back, because there were a lot of advantages to the refillables. Their re -use saved energy and raw materials involved in bottle manufacture. And, more important, people returned refillable bottles. So they didn't become the litter and garbage disposal problem that throwaway bottles and cans are causing today. On October 1, 1976 a new law went. into effect. It says that within six months, retail vendors will be required to stock and display in refillable bottles any size, flavour and brand of soft drink they offer in non -refillable bottles. In other words they have to offer you a choice. It also requires that retailers selling soft drinks in refillable bottles must now accept and refund cash deposits of at least 10¢ on small sizes and 20¢ on large sizes. And the amounts of these deposits must be shown separately from the actual price of the pop. Your Ministry of the Environment thinks that a return to refillable bottles will save energy, help alleviate garbage disposal problems, and reduce the number of landfill sites. It will be a step toward a clean, unlittered Ontario. Ministry of the Environment Ontario Hon. George A. Kerr, Q.C., Minister Everett Biggs, Deputy Minister Notice to Ontario Retailers Effective October 1, 1976, you will be required to accept deposits on refillable soft drink con- tainers of 10¢ an small sizes cmd 200 on large sizes.
