A VISIT TO TILE IIOMETOWN
Spent a week in the old home-
town recently, and, as usual, it
was anything but a rest. The
weather was perfect, but the
hospitality was exhausting.
It's not really my ,hometown, 1
didn't grow up there, physically.
But I spent a decade there in the
newspaper business, and maybe 1
grew up there in other ways.
Anyway, when you walk down the
main street, and every second
person stops to shake hands and
ask about our family, and tell you
what -their kids are doing now,
it's your hometown.
A smalltown changes and yet
remains the same. A few busines-
ses have changed hands. Some of
the stores have new fronts. The
paint on the hotel has been
changed from passionate purple
to ghastly green. The shady, tree -
lined street on which you used to
live has been raped: the stately
trees cut to ugly stumps, as the
street is to he widened.
But the biggest changes are in
the people. The young men you
used to work and play with are
grizzled or as bald as eggs, The
young women you used to look
at with some interest because of
their big eyes are sagging and
dentured. The lovable kids that
your kids used to play with are
hulking adolescents, some of
them delinquents with police re•
cords. And your old partner, once
apparently indestructible, is tak-
ing eight different colors of
pills,
Despite the changes, there is
continuity as comfoetable as an
old fishing that. The Chamber of
Commerce is still fighting over
store hours. The Industrial Com-
mission is on the verge of an-
nouncing a huge new industry.
The fire brigade races periodi-
cally to the own dump, where•
the incinerating process has got
out of hand because the care-
taker has bogged off for a beer,
Some of the local characters
have gone to •their reward, but
many are still around. The local
lawyer still plays his electric or-
gan between clients. The local
millionaire still slugs bags of
salt and feed into the back of
his '66 model and lugs it out to
feed his cattle. The barber, with
whom you once shared a riotous
Legion zone rally, still quips
with his customers, though he
went off to fight in a war over
50 years ago. 'Phe canny Scot
chorteles as he tells you his shore
lots are now going over $4,000.
The same waiter insults the same
customers, in ,the pub. The same
beer barrel in human form sits
in 'the same seat in the same pub.
The same people still come to
the same cottages, Except that
the pregnant young matron was
a skinny kid in bare feet last time
you saw her. And the handsome
young chap who works at the
summer store was a tyke called
Johnny -Cake last lime you saw
him,
However, it's good to get back
for a visit. And it's never unev
entful.
Kept my hand in by writing a
few news stories for the paper,
Took the family to the Indian
reserve; same beautiful view and
easygoing inhabitants, Dropped
in on old friends and got all the
latest dope on who was going
crazy, and who was running
around with whom
Had e beer at The Cedar Rail,
most unique bar in the country,
and with the best prices, It's a
shed on a farm, full of (tools and
baled shay, A cedar rail extends
across the front. You stand there
with your farmer friend, lean on

the rail and look at the lake down
below. We've seen deer and bear
fromthere, and covered local
politics and talked cattle.
Got stuck in the sand at the
beach, to the rage of my wife.
She went flying off to find a tow
truck, in a friend's car. While
she •\vas away, t was pulled out
easily by a man with no arms,
who had a chain in his trunk, a
wife to drive this car, and a gaggle
of kids to help push, Sounds like
fiction, but it's fact.
It could only happen in or
around the old hometown,

The July -August meeting of the
U.C.W. was held last Tuesday af-
ternoon at the home of Mrs. Ed-
ward Robinson with a good at-
tendance. Mrs. Murray Wilson op-
ened the meeting with the hymn
"Come Children, Join to Sing."
The scripture was Psalm 23, whi-
ch was read in unison. Mrs. Wil-
son led in prayer. Mrs, Tom Arm-
strong conducted the business.
It was decided to send a $5,00 do-
nation to Goderich Summer
School, A new card catalogue was
shown and a quantity ordered
for the members. The offering
was received. "All the Happy
Children" was sung and Mrs.
Armstrong took charge of the
sttudy book and a discussion fol-
lowed. After singing "Holy. Spirit
Hear Us" Mrs. Wilson closed the
meeting with the benediction.
Lunch was served by Mrs, Ed-
ward Robinson and Mrs. James

be in active operation. Further,
the frurm must have been owned
by direct descendants by the
same family for 100 years or more

grandfather to father to son or
from grandfather to daughter -
past down from aunts, uncles, or
cousins, who may by of the same
name as the owner, does not
count.
Because of the popularity of
this project and the tremendous
amount of favourable publicity
which is still received, a number
of further applications for Cen-
tury Farm designation have resul-
ted.
We are therefore anxious to
have all those eligible for this
recognition who may have been
earlier turned down because of a
