Still, in spite of ice storms, blizzards and heaps of snow, which have provided us with all sorts of winter fun, Ave should not forget the fact, that 1968 was a wonderful year weath erwise, We had lots of sun, still no droughts. 'We had all the rain we wanted, but not in excess. We, had a very high amount of heat units, which of course are responsible for the excellent grain crop, especially corn. For once we hadtrue seasons. Spring came earlier in 1968 than the pre- vious year. ft provided farmers with very reliable weather during seeding. We had a real summer extending well into September. The fall was certainly wonderful. Lots of rain at times, but not en• ough to endanger the harvest of late crops like corn and turnips. in summer and fall we had more frequent thunderstorms than us. nal, especially in August, during which we had a record number of 10 such occurences, but no lis. asterona ones. Here are some facts which will help evaluate further last year's weather. Temperatures were ra- ther reasonable throughout the ear with the exception of Decent. her 10th, when we recorded a low c'!' •15 degrees, which is an all time low for that day. The high- est reached was 90 degrees and c;ccured twice during the summer, on the 9th of June and 24th of August, The mean temperature in 1968 was 43.5 degrees, only decimal .4 more than the previous year and decimal .3 less than in 1966. Variations in precipitation in comparison are not much greater. Last year's rain total was 33.47 inches, the measured am• aunt of snow 90.7 inches, which give tis a total amount of preeip- iRation of 42.54 inches, only 1,5 in. ches less than in 1967. IIeat units were quite high with 3388,5 Units, Last year and the two previous years still didn't come up to the record established earlier. The sante with the sun hours, A rec- orded number of 1782,2 hours of bright sunshine is a high average, but certainly no record, When we compare the number of clays with bright sunshine from year to year the same simularity can be obser• vet, Last year we had 263 days with sunshine, 260 in 1.967 and 261 days in 1966. The same anal- ogy applies to the number of days with precipitation. For the benefit of those wino are wondering how much snow we have had so far this winter out here, 1 must say that our total to this day is 72.6 inches, a little Tess than the 80 Inches, which have been reported on radio and TV. To the consternation of those who believe that we already have now 10 inches more snow than any other .winter, • I 'must regretfully raid, that we have still a minhnun► of 14.9 Inches to come in order to reach the minimum quota of 87.5 in 1964 and quite a lot to go to the 130 inches we had In 1960 and 1962, in conclusion, let's hope for the best, but let's not forget, that geographically we are in the mid- dle of the sn'owbelt of these parts of Ontario. AN EARLY SPRING? Vera McVittie informs us she heard crows cawing somewhere in the vicinity of their home on Mon- day, She guarantees this as a sure sign of an. early spring! And it just could be that we have seen most of our snow for this winter. Storm Ties Up Traffic On Frday "Serving i3lytlt and Community Since 1885" Old J1an Winter showed little mercy on this area last week and continued to pile up what seems like an insurmountable amount of snow. The crushing blow came last Friday in the form of blowing winds and driving snow and had travel on area roads literally at a stand still. One motorist who travelled north on No. 4 Highway early Saturday morning told us he was able to count twelve ears and four trucks stuck on the road and in the ditch between here and Bel - grave. Needless to say, plowing con. ditions were impossible and plows were called off the roads shortly after noon on Friday. The last trip the plow made through I;lyth until Saturday morning %vas at 12:45 p.m. Trucks and ears began lining the main street of Blyth at noun hour and by late afternoon the village was full of vehicles. The Blyth inn was jammed to the root' top. Saturday saw conditions improve considerably and the plows and blowers were able to clear the roads by early morning. Weather continued to improve over the weekend and llonday was a bea- utiful clay With three weeks of stormy weather, everyone has been talk- ing of a record snow fall and we wouldn't be at all surprised if it was for this early in the winter. 13th as -you will read in an article written by Louis Stadlena;l for this %veek's issue of the Standard. we Win still have In pile up a 1u1 Of the white fluffy stuff if a record is to he achieved, But who %wants to see this kind of record anyway?

Bill McDougall sparked the Blyth team by scoring 5 goals Gerald Riley, Donald Stewart and David Cook scored one each for Blyth. Steve Walsh played a strong game in the net to keep Blyth in the gauge. 'rhe next game is in Brussels and will be the start. of the play- offs. Squirts Lose First by 1), Rodger Myth Squirts dropped their first game in live starts Saturday afternoon in Blyth. A rather poo' effort by the leans and some alert play by the Lucknow boys gave the visitors a 4 to 3 decision. Brian Millar opened the scor• ing o1 an unassisted goal and Blyth led 1 to 0 at the end ol'thc first periost, 111 the second period the root began to Cave in as Luckac' scored 2 goals. Early in the thircl ,period they counted 2 more and led 4 to 1 before Donnie Carter scored 2 goals, assated by Ken Ritchie and Kevin Carter. I3tit time ran out before we could get the equalizer. 130011 Snow Banks Create Hazards With the huge snow banks piled up along every street in the vll• lage, several residents have point- ed out to us what could be a ,err ious situation which has occurred among the younger residents of our village. It appears as if several children in the community have found the banks of snow an excellent place in which to play and release their excess energy. Many have bur• rowed holes and are using them we suppose as caves and hiding places. 'Three children were seen evacuating one hole just minutes before the spow plow came along. This, to say the least, could have proven very, very disasterous. We often hear of such accidents happening in other communities, and, in fact, one has occurred just recently. Let's not have one of our children buried by the wing of a .plow. A wont from parents should help to aleviate a danger• ous situation. Merchants Win 2; Play Fri, and Sun. On Wednesday, January 8th, the 11lyth Merchant's intermediates stretched their unbeaten string to three games as they took a 7 to 4 come from behind win from 1lonkton. At the start of the third period they, were down 4 to 1 but played exceptionally fine hockey in the final stanza to salvage the win. Ken Dace scor• ed what proved to be the winning goal at 12:20. Blyth goals were scored i)y Larry I3oyd with three; Ken Lee and Gordon Ilaggitt one each; ono Ken I)aer %with two big ones. E':d. Dae• counted four assists. On Sunday evening the team travelled to Ripley for a gr;'11e %vith the Flyers and came home %with a 9 to 3 victory. Blyth had only nine players o►. hand for this game and lost Gordon Ilaggitt midway through the ;:gene when he suffered a damaged kliPe Ilicky German played a standout game in goal. Blyth gaols; Dol Aubin 3; Eton Henry 2; Ed, Daer, Gordon Hag. gilt, Murray Lowe and Robert (rook one each. The 131yth Merchant's t'‘,810 roster is as follows:goa1, Lorne Dace and (tick (Lerman; defence, Ken Daet', Robbie Lawrie, Ross 1)acr, Don Achilles; centre, Ken Lee and Robert Cook; forwards, Larry I3oyd, Don Aubin, Ed, Dace Murray Lowe, John Stewart, Ron Henry, Jim Fritz, Doug 11cDoug• all and Gordon Ilaggitt. Crowds have been very. very poor at games this year and the fellows rine desperately in need of fan support. Two home gamer are scheduled this weekend on Friday and Sunday nights. Plan to attend at least one of them and give the boys a hand. It lakes good cold/cash to run an intermediate hockey team and the fellows are finding it very hard sledding. They are playing a brand of hockey that is certainly deserving of support. SEYI;N' 'rABLES There were seven tables 1n play at this week's euchre contest In the Blyth Memorial I-Iall Monday evening. Ladies high, Pear} Gid. ley; ladies low, Mrs. L. McNall; novelty, Mrs, Joseph McCaughey; teen's high, Earl Noble; men's low, George Watt; novelty, ,Mrs, Eva Noble playing as a man.

The meeting opened with the Ode, the Mary Stewart Collect. and 0 Canada. Mrs. John ilesselwood, acting as secretary, react the minutes of the previous meeting, the treasurer's report and thank -you notes. Mrs. Ben Walsh was reappoint• ed as the Institute representative to the recreational committee. The Insitutc will sponsor two 411 homemaking clubs, "ileal on the Menu." The senior girls will h0 led by Mrs, 1.. McGowan, and tile junior girls by Mrs. Chf! Snell and Mrs, Harvey Snell. The leadership training school will be held in Clinton on January 28 and 29. Mrs, L. McGowan, glome Econ. curies convene', was in charge of the programme. She read a poem entitled "Our Friendship" then introduced Miss Susan Heard, Ilome Economist for Huron Coun- ty. Speaking on the theme "A Forward Look in Home Econo• n:Jcs," She stated that there was very little change in the world be- fore the 20th century. It is now predicted that by 1980, 80 per cent of the labour force will be slaking products we don't oven know about yet. In her address she dealt with predictions for housing, fashion, and food of the future. Mrs. McGowan led in a cake name contest, then lunch was air• wed by the hostesses, Mrs. Ann Sundercock, , Mrs. .1.. Jq yes ,and Mrs. Dan tfallahan. Sink Sinks From Wall It seem as if the Blyth Laundro- mat is the 'perfect place for some people to vent their pentup ant• ot.ions, mach to the chagrin of owners Mr. and Mrs, George Haines. Mrs. Haines tells us that a weep ago Sunday some thoughtful per- son, or persons, ripped the ',ink completely off of the wall. We just simply cannot find words to describe persons who witifully destroy other people's property. The Maines' have gone to a gc d amount of work and have spent considerable money to make 010 Blyth Laundormat a neat ,and tidy place for their customers, U is just too bad to see such fool• hardy acts make it almost impos• sible to operate such an establish. mint. PERSONALS J1r, and Mrs, Jim Timpany, Aylmer, visited with Mr. and Mrs, Alvin Snell and Bonnie over the weekend. Guests ,with Mr, and Mrs, Geo. rge Haines on Sunday were, Mr. and Mrs, Don Haines, Kathy And Jimmie, of Exeter, Mr. and Mrs. John Stein, Mr. and Mrs, Edward Szusz, of East Wawanosh, Mr, and lies.

Horticulturalists Need Assistance The Blyth Horticultural Society will meet at the home of Mrs. Ann Sundercock on Monday, Jan - nary 20th, at 2 p.m. All residents who are interested in seeing the work of the Society continue are asked to please at- tend this meeting. Interest has fallen to the point where the ac- tive members are seriously con- sidering disbanding unless new members turn out to help. With the busy summer months ap- proaching, the present active members feel they cannot contin- ue without more assistance. Pee Wees Take 1 Of 2 Games In Clinton on Monday night the Blyth Lions pee wees played their return game with the Clinton Pon - les and came home with a 5 to 2 loss. Clinton led all the way, scoring 2 goals in the first four minutes of play. Blyth came back with a goal by Cameron from Millar, but the Ponies rapped in another goal before the period ended to make the count 3 to 1. In the second frame Clinton again beat John Verwey to make the count 4 to 1. Greg Riley took over In goal for Blyth and held the Ponies to one goal in the third period, but the Lions, although dominating the play, could not beat Welsh in the Clint- on net, Randy Millar scored for Blyth with only four seconds left in the game to make the final score read 5 to 2. There were three penalties in the game, two to Clinton and one to Carter of Blyth, who was called for cross checking.

By Bill Smile) Num A NEW YEAR'S EVE PARTY Hope you got through the trying holiday season as well as we did. All you 'flu victims have my sympathy. I tottered about for ten days, a tot here and a tot there, not quite desperately ill enough to stay in bed, and therefore getting little sympathy. Kim spent the festive season going to bed at 2 a.m. and getting up at 2 p.m. Mostly because of a new boy friend, who is out on bail. That's right; he's out on bail. My wife did her best to set fire to the house, one Sunday light when I was at church, For years, I've been telling her to burn junk hi the fireplace: paper and wrappings and boxes and such. She finally caught on. So did the evergreens with whiqh she annually decks the mantel, when she threw into the fire a cardboard 'box about two feet by four. She stood there, paralyzed, watching the joint go up in flames. The only muscle working was her tongue. When that stops working, she'll be ready for the cold, cold ground. She screamed: "Kim! Kim!" And Kim responded nobly to the crisis. Upstairs, she came down like a bomb, seized a basin of water from the kitchen sink, and hurled it with unerring aim all over the fire, her mother, the rug, and the hi•fi. Did the trick, though. Speaking of Kini and fires, she bad a New Year's Eve par• ty which caused more turmoil than the Battle of the Boyne did in Ireland. It wasn't that she demanded a big spread or a hired orches- tra or anything like that. She had only one request: that we get out before the guests arrived and stay out until they were gone. The normal response of a father to such a stipulation is to snack his hand on the table and roar, "O.K. no parents, no party!" Which he did, about eight times. Finally, by some circuitous route known only to families, we arrived at a compromise of sorts. There would be no drinking. Undesirables would be severely policed by Kim and two of her largest girl friends, and two boys who would be personally responsi- ble to me, by George, or else. There would be no gate-crashers. See policing, above (Gate- crashing is a norm at a party in a small town, where everybody in the teen world knows everybody else and after all, what do you say, Dad, when somebody arrives at the door with a big, silly grin on his gig, silly face and asks, "Can I come to your party, Kim?") It was resolved that the food would consist of potato chips and pop. "How can you be so square, Mom, kid's don't eat at part fes?" Later, Kim graciously allowed her mother to make ahou) 480 sandwiches. It was agreed, after a motion by me that went something like, "If you think I'm going to walk the streets in a blizzard on New Year's Eve just because a stubborn brat like you doesn't wane; her parents around just because she's having a party for a gang of degenerate teen-agers, then you've got another think coming young •lady!", that the party would end at 1.30. It`s a long story, hut she finally kicked us into the snow• difts at 9 p.m. It was too early to go anywhere. ,We drove around the block a few times, my wife peering desperately toward the house on each circuit. We dropped in on sick friends, to get warm, or sick, and guess who ran straight to the phone and called home. The response was chilly: "Yes, Mother. No, Nobody's drunk. Will you please stcp bugging me, there's somebody at the door?" The old lady called four more times from as many different places. Responses grew even chillier, We arrived home at 3 a.m., ready to face the debacle: a wasteland of broken dishes and tromp• led grapes, And sitting there with her out•on•bail fniend, listening to ...records, was the Cheshire cat herself. The house was clean as a . funeral parlor, They'd been working like dogs for an hour. . . . No burns, no broken dishes, no seratches.on the grand piano, Nothing. including the 480 sandwiches, about 12 pounds' of fruit. . and all the bread and nuts in the house.

Jonathan portrayed Danish op uratic star Bjorn Bjorny. While being interviewed he was asked what the difference \vas between Italian and German opera. "In Italian opera, girl meets boy and they get married. In German op• ora, boy meets girl and they in. vale Poland and then go to Ar- gentina." The interviewer continued: ,"Do you have the Barber of Seville in your repertoire?" "No, but 1 have his manicurist in niy car " L ,.

A fable is told, that one day Satan called a conference to discuss plans to get more people into hell. Several demons were asked to offer suggestions. One said: "We should tell thein that there is no God!" (All agreed). Anot her: "No, we should toll them that there is 0 God, but that Ile does not love them." (Apporval!). A third demon had the idea: "Let us tell them that there is a God and that Ile loves them, but that there is no way for Ilim to stake this love known to them." (Applause). When all had had an opportunity to speak, Satan himself stood up and said: "all of these ideas are good, but 1 have a more effective plan! Let us tell then[ that there is a God and a heaven and a hell. We will tell them that God loves then and made His love known at Calvary! And we will even tell Utero that by faith in Christ they can be saved from hell and come into heaven. But then we will tell them that there is no hurry; they can delay thi decision to trust Christ and wait a while! That should increase our business tremendously!" This is the voice of deceit and falsehood, which says: "Youta is not the time to settle the question of your spiritual and eternal wellbeing. Youth is for laughter, love and pleasure." Or: Your future on earth must be made secure. Your bust- ness must be expanded. You must make proper investments. Bible. study, spiritual reflection can wait!. But this is the lying voice 01 Satan. Renteniber your Creator in the days of your youth, before the evil days conie and the years draw nigh when you will say: I have no pleasure in them. . Though ten thousand demons whisper into your ear, that there is no hurry: they all lie, for it may be that this night your soul is required of you! Delay gamble with time.
