Fog -Shrouded Fire destroys Large
Morris Township Barn
Fire early Sunday morning com-
pletely ravaged the large barn on
the farm of Mr, and Mrs, Pierre
Ranimeloo, 9th concession of.
Morris Township, about a mile
and a quarter east of Blyth (the
former Gibson farm).
The fire was first discovered
by Mrs, Rammeloo, who awoke
to see a red haze In the fog -
shrouded night, Telephone lines
were also destroyed and Pierre
had to travel to a neighbour's
home, Mr, and Mrs, John van
Den Assem, in order to call fire-
men. The Blyth Fire Brigade
answered the call at approximat-
ely four a.m. and when they ar-
rived at the scene, little more
than a few burning timbers were
left of the building. They kept
a vigil on surrounding buildings
but all remained safe from the
burning embers,
Mr, Rammeloo told the Stand -
aid 'Tuesday morning that total
damage could reach the $30,000
stark, The loss included 27 head
of cattle, 1 pony, a quantity of
hay and grain; turnip waxing
equipment, a ton of wax and 700
bushel of turnips.
The upper storey of the barn
was used by the Rwunmeloos for
the waxing of turnips which they
grow.
Fire Chief Irvin Bowes said he
believed the fire started in the
pump house adjoining the barn.
A dense fog covered the area
on the night of the fire and the
blaze was not noticeable until fire-
men were only a few feet from
the farm. This could no doubt
account for the fact. that the fire
reached such great proportions
before being discovered. Anyone
travelling .clown the concession
would have been unable to see
the flames,
Five Year -Old Lad Tangles With Car,
Escapes Without Serious Injuries
People along the main street
of Blyth were stunned to the
core last Friday afternoon when
another of our young residents
was involved with a car while
crossing the street. -
Darrell Herbert (Iierhie)) Gov
ier, five-year-old son of Mr, and
Mrs, Murray Govier was struck
by a car driven by Edward Bridle
of Clinton. Ile was felled to the
ground and rendered unconscious.
Residents who were in close
at hand when the accident oc•
Burred brought blankets and kept
the young lad as comfortable as
possible until Dr. R. W. Street
arrived.
Ilerbie was taken to Clinton
hospital where his condition ,was
diagnosed as a slight concussion,
cracked pelvis, along with severe
cuts and bruises, • He was able to
return home on Monday.
This is the second accident in
a matter of two weeks involving
young boys. Both were hurt
badly and life was spared only
because the drivers of both cars
were driving at a speed which
enabled them to stop almost im-
mediately. We've seen cars, and
especially trucks 'go through oiii
village at such a rate of speed
that the results of such an acci-
dent would be disasterous. It's
just too had these people could
not be on hand to witness some-
thing like we have seen here
twice in the past two weeks,
Perhaps it wouldn't hurt if you
spoke to your children about
the safe crossing of roads and
streets. It appears as if we will
never be able to educate drivers,
so our only hope rests with the
kids.

NEW POSTAL REGULATIONS --
We've been telling you for
some time now about new postal
regulations coining into effect
that will concern a few of our
subscribers, and these regulations
will be effective the end of this
month.
The new regulation is to the
effect that any subscriber who is
in arrears for more than one year
will no longer he considered a
subscriber of the Standard, or
any weekly newspaper in Canada,
for that matter.
Our mailing list will be brought
up to date on March 2811) and
anyone who is over a year in ar•
rears will be chopped from the
list, Take a look at the label on
this issue. If it reads March 1967
or prior to that date you aro
one of those who will be taken
from our mailing list, that Is nn.
less you pay up within the next
couple of weeks,
Another regulation is that all
subscribers who have zone num•
hers must also have them includ•
ed with the address on their
paper. If you live in a zoning
area and the number is not on
your paper we ask you to please
notify us at once, Otherwise we
suppose postal authorities will
refuse to make delivery.
Postal auditors will make peri•
odic checks at weekly newspaper
offices to make sure the new reg.
ulations are being abided by.
We only hope that with these
new demands, postal authorities
are prepared to come across with
better delivery service to the
owners of weekly newpapers. To
give you an instance of just what
we mean: the paper leaves Blyth
on Thursday every week. Some
weeks subscribers in Belgrave,
six miles north of us, receive
their copies the following Tues.
day. Slightly ridiculous, to say
the least.
Of course, this situation arises
on deliveries to other comniuni•
ties, particularly in the province
of Ontario. It seems the farther
away you are, the better service
you receive. We have a sub.
scriber living in the U.S. -- 2,600
miles away who receives his copy
on Monday. Another 600 miles
north of Blyth also receives his
on Monday. It just doesn't make
sense to us. Especially when sub•
scribers in Toronto receive their
Standard the following Thursday
—a week to the day from the
time it was mailed!
A Donation Here Will Work Wonders
For The Crippled Kids In This Area
The Easter Seal Campaign will
commence in this district the .end
of this week and we ask you here
and now to give your wholeheart-
ed support,
The campaign is conducted by
the Blyth Lions Club and all mon-
ey collected will go towards help-
ing the crippled children in our
area, The Lions will be busy on
Thursday night, immediately fol•
lowing their regular meeting, put-
ting the seals and accompanying
letter in the Easter Seal envel-
opes. These. will be nailed to
everyone in the district this week-
end, •'„
The success of. the Easter Seal
Campaign in our area over past
years has been fantastic. This is
no doubt a reflection of the tre-
mendous work done locally by
our Lions Club. All money re-
ceived in the campaign slays right
at home to be used locally. And
each year more and more money
is needed to carry on the work.
Each year the campaign has
been held by the Lions Club we
have been fortunate enough to
witness record contributions, At
the time the campaign was first
just over two hundred dol•
lays was received. Donations
have kept growing over the years
and last year we set an all-time
record with... over . one, thousand
dollars being donated.
If you have been reading the
Standard during the years, you
will no doubt the aware of the
fact. that the crippled children's
fund has been our favourite Cam
paign, We all know that there is
just nothing quite so helpless as
a crippled child, and nothing just
quite so rewarding to see your
donations used to brighten their
pathway in life, and in many
cases, bringing ` them'. back to
.normal and useful. members of
,Ptir society.
We realize that you have been
"lilt hard" for donations during
the past year, but in this case
we 'ask you to please "dig .deep"
in order to support the Easter
Seal Campaign. It is obviously
impossible for the Lions to adver-
tise the work they .do with alp -
pled children. However, the fact
that the fund has grown so tre-
mendously over the years should
be ample proof that their work
has been, and will continue to be
carried on in our area.
Make your donation this year
an offering of your thanks , that
the members of your family have
been spared a serious illness.

SUGAR
and
SPICE
•om By Bill Smiley
SMILEY THE HUSTLER
A funny thing happened on the way to the proof-reader's a
couple of weeks ago. My column appeared, headed "Gloom and
Doom." It Was riddled with quotations by experts, allusions to
economics, references to the stock market and all sorts of similar
portentous fulminations.
1 imagine bewildered readers Shaking their heads and mut.
tering to their spouses, "Here, Mabel. What's come over young
Smiley. Ile sounds learned, intelligent and as though he'd lost his
last friend, Completely out of diameter."
What happened was that the headings were inadvertently
switched on my column and that of Hay Argyle, an old friend who
writes a perceptive column on current affairs.
And his readers mast have been equally baiflecl, asking,
"What in the name of all that's ridiculous has happened to Argyle
this week? Pure drivel, Never knew him 10 write such puerile
nonsense betOre," Oh well, the allies made bigger boobs than that
and won the war,
At any rate, it May be of some comfort to you to know that
this weeks column is not only mine, lint is being written by the
undisputed Russian Billiards champion of the local curling club, I'm
not much on the ice, but -I'm a holler on the pool table in the base-
ment.
It shook a lot of the denizens of the billiard room, but none
of them as much as it shook me. Knocked off three opponents, in-
cluding one bird who tried to oneupmanship me by bringing along
his own private cue, to make the finals.
-Should have seen the tiger I faced then, Six feel four, 20
years younger than me, fine golfer; hawk -eyes of the outstanding
hockey goalie he is, and the hottest, pool shark in town. Now don't
panic, mum, 1 beat him,
It was best three games otit of five. Ile took the first two
so fast that all I had a chance to do was chalk my cue and spot the'
balls he kept knocking in, Isn't this exciting?
Well, as we 'old fighter pilots put it, there I was at 30,000
feet, upside down, out of ammo, and three straight games to Win, 1
knew that only sheer brilliance and naked courage would save the
day,
So I gave him the old reverse treatment. Instead of mak
ing points, I kept losing them. You can do this in Russian billiards.
Pretty soon 1 was 28 in the hole, He was about 30 in the clear, a
difference of 58.
He got over -confident and careless, started knocking the•
balls around, losing points, and -.I craftily crept out of the hole, a
few at a time, Suddenly he realized this old duffer might beat him,
got desperate, and I had him on the run. Nothing to it, really. The
thought of the shame if I beat hila destroyed his confidence and he
was a sitting cluck. That's my story, anyway, and thele were no
witnesses.
Speaking of games, never play thein with women. I found
out years ago that the only game you can play with them is the
love game, and even there you have about as much chance of win-
ning as you have with n slot machine,
Women are completely devoid of sportsmanship, hate to
be beaten and turn cold or hot with rage when they- are. Knowing
this, I foolishly took part in a mixed curling bon -spiel the other day,
The girls haVen't changed. They played as thotigh the six -dollar
prizes were solid gold Cadillaes.
Still on sports, the winter carnival season is in full swing.
1 guess they're a gdod thing. Give people a chance to get stoned
to the eyeballs or roar about on their skidoos, releasing their ag-
gressive tendencies. The height of something occurred at one of
these events the other day. Winner of the ice -fishing contest col-
lected a free holiday in Nassau. The winner? A 41/4 -inch perch.
And a Iasi word on games, The Liberal leadership marc•
thon is on and the pack is off and running, But the bulldogs,
greyhounds and just plain mutts are all looking oVen their shoulders
at that darned French poodle coming up fast,
My suggestion: call the race off and ask Diet' to take over
as leader. Winston Churchill crossed the Hoer of the House and
look how far he went. And Wouldn't the Old Chief have a lovely
time ripping into Stanfield?

FROM THE MINISTER'S STUDY
"DON'T CRY Fall ME . „.11
Luke 23: 2701
A large crowd of people followed Jesus on the' Way to
Golgotha. Among them were some women who were Weeplrlg and
wailing for Flim,
You will say: this is not surprising. 1t must have been n
heart -breaking sight: Jesus, covered by sweat and blood, surrounded
by mocking people, angry Jews and grim soldiers — we call this way
the "Via Dolorosa," the "Way of Sorrows." iS not the first, natural
reaction: compassion? Surprising is however, that Jesus dismissed
and rejected the tears, It was not that Jesus was so unfeeling. In
Gethsemane for example he really asked his disciples for their
concern!
But the tears oi' the women along the road to Golgotha were
the emotion of the moment and tomorrow all will be forgotten , .
'!'here were many reasons for the people of Jerusalem to
weep for themselves and for their children. They rejected their
Saviour, But they did not sec it and therefore they wept for Hltn
and not for themselves,
The Saviour passes you loo, on His way.
Is this the way where you find your salvation?
Oh, let there be tears.
The tears which come from a contrite heart.
The tears of those who weep for themselves and for their
sins and guilt. Remember: sensitive hearts, over -sensitive heaftfi
even are not yet converted hearts or believing hearts,
Do not weep for Him- and do not blame Judas and ,Pilate
and those soldiers in the first place. Weep for yotil'self and g;lo1y
in the Cross and accept thankfully the amazing love of our Lord
Jesus Christ,
Do not assume an attitude of wailing spectators, on the side
oI' the road, but of ashamed and surprised people and accept in
gratitude the great sacrifice,

Air. Wittier is working on the

should have it completed by next

duct of four years' work.
In his maiden speech in the Le-
gislature this week the controver-
sial and well known Dr, Morton
Shulman opened with a barrage of
charges,
Ile accused the Government of
!'ailing to lay charges in a case
of forgery and other criminal acts
arising out of the 1962 takeover
of Canadian Oil Companies Ltd.
by Shell Oil Ltd. which, he said,
gave a $5 million profit to insid-
ers With prior knowledge.
In addition he accused E. P.
Taylor of participating in a $1
million corporate theft involving
Peller Brewing Co. Ltd., asked
the resignation of health Minis-
ter Matthew Dymond for suppos-
ed persecution of a private mental
hospital owner, and accused So-
cial Services Minister John Yar-
emko of "shipping out"to other
