Lions Carnival is Your Chance To Help • Each year, for more than twenty years, one of the more important summer events in the Seaforth com- munity has been the Lions Club Carnival. This year the Carnival, being held on Wednesday and Thursday of next week, has a particular significance, for it will mark the official opening t)f the Lions Club new swimming pool. Incorporating the most modern • features, the new pool is but a fur- ther indication of the continuing pro- gram to which the Lions have set themselves over the years of provid- ing recreational facilities for the people of the district. Each year since the establishment of Seaforth • Lions Park in, the late twenties has seen improvenfents and developments, until today the Park is known throughout a wide area as one of the most attractive spots of its 'kind in the Province. Each year it caters to an increasing number of people anxious to enjoy the cool re- freshing surroundings which it pro- vides. • While the park is a pleasing place in which to spend an hour, it is the swimming facilities which are pro- vided that make the most lasting contribution to the community. Here district children and adults may par- ticipate in healthful outdoor activ- ity, which is reflected in less illness • • •.• • I( • , and Stronger:bodies, „ 30 u tto superviReci training Pro- gana; tbe- Lions Cllub„ makes its ma - J01' contribution, It is difficult to estimate how wanx children have learned to float, swini allti dive un- der trained supervision. Now the safe and sanitary 'facilities which the new pool provides will result in -even more people acquiring a knowledge of water practises that may very well save, countless lives in the years to come. All this is possible only because of the continued support which the community extends to the Lions Club. The Carnival each summer is the vehicle which the Club employs o make available the funds with whit to continue the operation of the Lions Park and Pool. It is your opportun- ity, by your attendance, to do your part in assisting the Club in carry- ing on its great work. See Them Smiling (Kincardine News) Man certainly is a volatile crea- ture. The slightest change can make him depressed or exceeding happy. This spring, when weather conditions showed a marked departure from normal, there were many glum faces, especially among those whose pur- suit is agriculture and there were numerous dire predictions that craps would be a failure and that the grim spectre of depression would make an early appearance. The past few weeks has shown that these gloomy forecasts were some- what unnecessary. In that period the weather has been ideal and resultant growth has been phenomenal. Crops look good in their present, stand and indications point to at least normal returns in this department. As a result, the grim visages of a few weeks ago are now wreathed in smiles and some are even condescend- ing to admit that perhaps things aren't so bad after all. This upswing in optimism is re- flected in other ways and everyone, farmer or not, is happier over the anticipated harvest from 1956 seed - time. Tomb Starts Fire • • Fire destroyed a trp.ch, he,.. the garage of Glidden Truck Body on Tuesday afternoon. The blaze started when a torch ignited seine gas that had spilled onto the floor. The flames quickly spread to the upholstery of the .truck and threatened the entire building 'for a few mbiutes. Clinton Fire De- partment was called and extin- guished the blaze very quickly. The high ceilings of the garage were credited with preventing a more serious fire as the flames failed to spread before being ex- tinguished. -Clinton News -Record. Exchange Namesake Greetings • An_exchange of greetings be- tween Blyth, England, and Blyth, Ontario, was prompted during last week by the receipt of a telegram by Village Clerk -Treasurer George Sloan, from the Mayor of Blyth, England, which read as follows: "Blyth, June 18, 1956 -NST Mayor, Blyth, Ontario: The Borough of Blyth, England, conveys its heart- iest greetings to you on namesake greetings day with sincere wishes for future prosperity. -Allan, May- or, Northumberland." Local lege officials sent a suitable reply of greetings to the English Bor- ough. -Blyth Standard.

Bayfield had been recommended te them by friends who formerly hved in Clin- ton. The groom had been through here when a small boy but other- wise it was their first trip up this way.
