Lions Present Arena Key To Recreation
Committee At Artificial Ice Opening
The official opening of the aro
lifieial ice plant at the Blyth
t.rena took place last Friday ev•
ening at the arena.
Festivities got under way at
8:30 p.m, and commenced with
speeches from local dignitaries,
Reeve Borden Cook spoke and
and declared the ice Plant offic-
ially opened.
During his address Reeve Cook
expressed the thanks of the com-
munity to the many persons who
worked diligently to instal the
ice in the arena. He gave credit
to the Blyth Lions, Legion, Agri•
cultural Society and the surroun-
ding townships; Morris, Hullett
and East Wawanosh, for their cen-
tennial grants, He paid special
tribute to the many canvassers
who worked long and hard in
t:n effort to raise funds, and par-
ticularly mentioned the former
residents of Blyth who came
through with donatidns in support
of the "old home town."
Borden also expressed the thanks
of the village to the residents o1
our surrounding community for
their wholehearted support, with-
out whom the campaign would
not have been nearly so success-
ful.
Sponsors of the event were the
members of the local Lions Club,
They had tried to contract skaters
from many figure skating clubs
and were foiled in their efforts,
Several clubs had been agreeable
to travel to Blyth and perform
during the evening, but were
not allowed to do so by their
Canadian association, the reasons
for which seem rather ridiculous
and we won't go into them here.
It wasn't until the last minute
that the club realized they would
be without performers.
Several local young people
were hurriedly pressed into ser-
vice and performed quite admir-
ably. Bonnie McVittie, Olwen
Griffith, Jean Campbell, IIelen•
Airdrie, Ron Henry, Doug Mc-
Vittie, Ricky German and Dale
Tasker performed a square dance
on skates. Ed. Daer was the call.
er. Ricky German and Emma
Van Lammeren, Linda Cook and
Del I-Iollai'd entertained with a
waltz on skates,
The Lions Club and the 13th
of Hullett hooked up in a lively
broomhall game and the evening
closed with skating for anyone
who wished to don the skates and
take to the ice, And we might
add that many oldsters took to
the ice and showed the youngster
there was a bit of life left in the
eld folks even yet.
Dr.. R. W. Street, chairman of
the Blyth Recreational Commit-
tee, was to have spoken on be
hall of the organizaion but was
detained and not present in time
for the speeches. On behalf of
those who did not attend the op-
ening and those who were there,
we take the opportunity of pub•
fishing his prepared address so
that the appreciation of the corn•
mittee. can also be acknowledged.
Dr. Street also received the key
to the artificial ice plant from
the Lions Club to the Recrea-
tional committee, The follow-
ing is his address:
Ur. President, Lions, Ladies
and Gentlemen: -
It is with much pleasure that
I accept, on behalf of the Rec-
reation Committee of the Vil-
lage of Blyth, this key to the
new artificial ice plant. I think
we all realize that a great deal
of effort has gone into this pro-
ject, by a great many people, in
a great many ways. First of ail
I want to congratulate the group
who had the foresight to initiate
this project and form the cen-
tennial committee. The results
you see' here tonight vindicate
their judgement. As time passes,
the community can look hack
with pride on our centennial
project.
This initial idea and plan
would not have been carried out
to completion, however, without
the 'tremendous efforts of the
Lions Club. They took over the
project and put in many' hours
of work, -canvassing, helping with
the actual installation, and they
continue to shoulder the respon'
sihility of the financial arrange-
ments, which are not yet cont-
pleted. As a result, our com-
munity, especially our young
people, will enjoy this excellent
sheet of ice for years to come.
Our hockey teams are already
practicing. They should be able
to compete on a more equal
footing now than in the past, and
stand a much better chance o1•
corning up with a winner.
The Recreati;ali Committee
assumes the responsibility of op-
erating the ice plant and arena,
and I hope that we can do ,o
to the satisfction of all. It is a
great pleasure to see our young
people, and some not so young,
enjoying the skating almost two
month ahead of the usual time
in former years.
Once again I would like to say
what a pleasure it is to be a
part of this project, and I am
sure everyone who has taken
part in It can be proud of the
result, Thank you.

Teens Plan Ice Fund
Dance Friday Night
The Blyth Teen Town is hold-
ing a dance in the Menmorlal I-Iau
this Friday night with all pro-
ceeds to go towards the artificial
ice campaign.
This is not a dance for the
teenage crowd alone, but More
or less for the .older folk who.
enjoy the more conventional style
of dancing.
The Teen Town has been ex-
tremely generous with their as-
sistance to many local endeav-
ours. This is just one more in-
dication of their interest in the
goings on in our community.
11 is hoped that a good crowd
will be on hand to support the
Teen Town and at the sane time
support a worthwhile local en-
deavour.

George McNall Ends Colourful Career
In Blyth Municipal Politics
Along with the November 27111
nomination meeting in the Vil-
lage of Blyth carie the end of
n long and illustrous political
career for George McNall, a well.
known local resident. George
has unfortunately been in failing
health for the past several years
and this year decided to call It
ing theirs in the hopes the value
will increase during the years to
come, Most of the shares that
do go on the market are being
picked up by local speculators,
Pond 'ails should se'r'e ii`; a good
indication that their value has
a very good chance of increasing.
We would like to remind -you
that if you do sell your shares,
you no longer are considered to
be a part of the new company,
but merely a renter of the ser-
vices offered.
quits so far as municipal poli-
tics is concerned,
George was reeve of Blyth dur-
ing the period 1933 until 1941
when he joined the armed forces
to serve in the Second World
War. For seven or eight years
previous to that time, lie served
en the municipal council.
After retuning from the war,
George again entered politics at
the municipal level. In 1960 he
was awarded a plaque from Ont.
'ario Ilydro for having served 25
years as a member of the Blyth
Public Utilities Commssion. His
retirement this year brings this
total to 31 years.
George has been a colourful
figure in local politics for many
years, and somehow we have the
feeling that even though he •does
not now hold office, his voice
will still be heard in matters 01
importance in village affairs.

SUGAR
and
SPICE
By Bill Smiley
HURRY HOME, HONEY
I'm beginning to realize what a widow with children goes
through. It's tough being both a momma and a poppa, I'll be glad
when any wife finishes her college course, gets home, and can fight
it out with Kim on the old basis, no holds barred, recriminations
aplenty, ferocious threats, and tears enough to wash the kitchen floor.
Last weekend I nearly gave my wife a heart attack, After
spending most of the weekend scretwi. g. tip my courage, i gritted
my teeth, look a good, stiff pelt of Walker's Special Old nerve tonic,
and announced gravely:
"Dear, l've got something to tell you about Kim, Now don't
get all upset. Everything will probably work out for the best,"
"She's not!," she shrieked. Oh, `my God!"
'I'm afraid she is," I said, sombrely. "But you've got to face
the facts. You can't keep a kid in the nest forever. These things
happen in the best of families. There are some things In this clay and
age that we may not approve of, But , .."
Well, with hindsight, I'll admit I was pretty stupid. But
after my wife had flown three times around the living•room, without
ever lighting, it emerged that we were talking about different things.
She thought Kim was pregnant. All 1 was trying to do was
tell her something even worse, that Kim had, after giving me a real
feminine, logicless, charming con job, joined a "group." She's been
invited to play the organ and sing in one of those shouting,
belting, deafening groups that are driving every adult over 3U out of
his little old square mind.
This is just a sample of the troubles I have. My wife think;
that classical music is it, and groups are for the well-known birds.
Kim thinks a young person is missing a vital, terribly important
experience if she doesn't ever belong to a group, I think •-• well,
never mind.
But my point is that in the good old days, Kim and her
mother would have fought it out, with frequent appeals to me from
each side, and both sides ignoring my rational compromise. Now,
I have to take the decisions, lay down the law, designate "getting -in"
hours, and try to force the kid to eat some breakfast.
Not to mention cheering her up when she's down, cooling
her down when she's all uptight, telling her to pick up her clothes,
and roaring at her to put the lid on the jam bottle and put it away,
after breakfast.
And she'll read this column and say, "You don't like ane,
do you Dad? I'm just a nuisance to you. I wish Mum was here."
And I'll say, "Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Did it ever
occur to you to do the dishes? I wish Mum was here too. She'd
straighten you out, you little bum."
And she'll say, "Oh, you think I'm a little bum, eh?
thanks a lot. That certainly makes a person feel wanted.",
And I'll say, "Bum, schlum. Get the carrots ready for the
stew and then get at your homework."
And she'll snap, "That's all you think about. Carrots
You're geting more like a schoolteacher all the time. Pompous and
arrogant,
And I'll shout, "You get upstairs and get at your hone
work and stop being so lippy or I'll give you a thick ear."
Knowing I wouldn't dare, she flounces out, goes up and
works off her repressions with the guitar and a couple of shouted
freedom songs, and I work off mine by getting the carrots ready and
inviting her down to dinner,
But we get along fine. She knows her place ••• head of the
household, and I know nine •-• foot of the household.
I'll be glad when Mum gets home. At least she knows ::
head from a foot, which is something in these troubled times.

FROM THE MINISTER'S STUDY
The four weeks prior to Christmas are known on the
Christian calendar as Advent. Actually Advent begins on the Sunday
nearest lo November 30,
The message of advent is a message of hope. It underscores
the Christian conviction that God has not forsaken his world but
can be trusted to conte to it in a very special way, as the need re-
quires, Christmas is the fulfillment of the advent hope.

CONGRATULATIONS
There is little enough in our world today to arouse hope, but
down through the centuries people of faith have clung to the assur-
ance that God is not prepared to let his creation 'go to perdition
without his making every effort to save it. That hope indeed is not
limited to the Christian era. Back in Old Testament days looked very
gloomy but there were people of faith like Isaiah and others who
courageously clung to the conviction that God would conic in a
special way to redeem his people.
The contemporaries of Jesus believed in the coming of a
Messiah, 'Phis Messiah would bring them a new day of triumph.
Because they had preconceived ideas as to what the problems were
that confronted them they also had their own ideas as to what the
Messiah should do. They saw their problem to be a foreign atony ol.
occupation, heavy taxation and a lack of respect for their race, We
SCC non that their problems were moral and spiritual,
From our point of view the important fact is that they had
hope and we too must cherish hope. The supreme reality about
this universe is the God who created it and he is not at the end of
his resources!
The psalmist could throw into the teeth of his adversity -•
"Why art thou cast down 0 any soul hope in God for I shall yet
praise him who is the health of my countenance and my God."
Advent says '"face tomorrow with hope."

Unethical methods to sell col-
t Jr television sets are being used
1 y a few unscrupulous appliance
c ealers.
A TV viewer called ane the oth-
r� day and described how she was
eing forced by an appliance dew -
1 2r to buy a colour set. This is
hat happened:
A salesman from a certain ap-
pliance store approached her
about trying out a colour set in
her hone. She agreed and sla-
ted that her black and white set
was not working properly. He
said they would repair it. She
agreed to this as well.
About two weeks later she tele-
phoned inquiring about her set
and she ,was told they were busy
and it had not been repaired.,
They asked her how she liked the
colour TV set. She replied that
the colours were not true and she
\vas having difficulty with it.
They said they would replace it
with a different kind. This was
done.
Weeks went by and finally she
inquired about her black and
white set. By accident she dis-
covered that the appliance shop
had sold her TV set, They admit-
ted this and said she should buy
the colour set. She refused. They
sent her a b:lk draft, which she
rzfused. During this hassle, the
manager of the appliance- store
a Buyer showed her a sign on his office

home suffering a 6 to 4 defeat,
but full of optimism for a suc-
cessful year ahead.
From this vantage point, it
looks as if the midgets are the
team to watch this year. With
Robbie Lawrie in the coach's
chair, the boys opened their reg-
ular schedule at home Monday
night when they handed the high-
flying Zurich squad a 2 to 1
defeat, We saw some excellent
young prospects on the club and
this team should supply fans with
an excellent brand of hockey as
the season wears on,
Yes we have the hockey teams.
Let's hope we have enough sup-
port from local fans to make the
year a resounding success. No
matter how good a team is, it
simply cannot be successful with'
out the support of fans.
