Dear Doug, Your item captioned "Garage Succumbs" in last week's Stand- ard prompted me to examine the label to see if my subscription had also succumbed. It had. Please find enclosed a cheque for $5.00 for renewal, I appreciate your calling the structure a garage. Neighbours looked upon it as an old barn. Although I received from them kind messages of sympathy • one, a telephone call the day after the downfall, -- I can't help but feel that, down deep in their hearts, they think the collapse of the six. ty year old (or there abouts) structure a blessing and are hum• ming a tune of praise. For was King Street any longer a fit place for our barn with a beautiful (?) new school right beside it and modern homes having to look up. on it? As 1 am .presently reading the History of Huron County by Jam. es Scott of Seaforth, in which he has interesting comments on Blyth, I think now of the barn's past. .It was constructed by a farmer• owner, the late 'William Johnson, uncle of William and Harve Brown. It had both a single and double box stall, and a shoot for hay, for Mr, Johnson kept a horse or horses, The late Mr. Stuart Dunward, once proprietor of Blyth Dairy, stored hay in the upper storey of the barn, and kept his horse in it. In our time, fat hens used to hop in and out of the hole in the back door. It shel- tered briefly a racoon. One sum• mer morning I was startled to see two piercing, black eyes staring at me from a dark corner of the garage where the racoon sat on a dining -room table, After an hour long struggle with two men with think gloved hands, it Was captured and shipped to the Peace River district by the Cunninghams, Twenty years ago, its upper floor provided a play area for my niece and her girl friends, A year and a half ago, a group of school children were sweeping the .loft (the pigeons did get in) and arranging the stored furnit- ure for a party when they were shooed out in no uncertain terms by a neighbour. I believe that snore than one first cigarette was tried in its hidden passageways at school recess, In last year's flood, nine or more of Murray Manning's rabbits were drowned in it and a memorial erected by 'Murray at its back door, Yes, Mr, Johnson's barn was a large barn with copious amounts of good wood and cement. But the era of village barns is coming to an end, I now am mustering courage to face the severity of a' Blyth win• ter and to view the remains. A thank you, Doug, for publish. ing a good paper. First, I read Q3i11 Smiley; then, the hockey scores, Good for the Intermed• fates, all coaches and teams! Let's hope attendance at league games Improves. Sincerely yours, Melda McElroy, BLYTH W. I. TO MEET FRIDAY AFTERNOON FEB. 7 The 13lyth Women's Institute meeting will be held In the Mem. orial Hall on Friday afternoon, February 7, at 2 o'clock.

They were defeated by a score of 8.6 in overtime. The goals for Blyth were scor• ed by 13111 McDougall •with 3 and David Cook, Wayne McDougall and Rick Cameron with one. On Monday they travelled to 13russels for the third game, lac. ing a tied series. At the end of the first two periods the score was 3.2 in favour of Brussels. The boys came back with a strong third period by scoring three goals and winning the series, Blyth goals were scored by Wayne Mc- Dougall with two, Bill McDougall, Davici Cook and Don Stewart got one each.

Weather Cancells Unit Meeting The Evening Unit of the. Blyth UCW, which was to meet on Tuesday, February 4th, will now meet on Tuesday, February 11th, due to bad weather conditions. First Meeting The first meeting . of the 4.11 Homemaking Club "Meat in the Menu" for girls 12 to 26 will be held on Monday, February 10th at 7 p.m. at the home of Mrs. Cliff Snell. If you are unable to attend please contact Mrs, Snell, Winter Returns With A Vengeance '!'hose who believe in watching for various signs to predict fut- ure weather conditions will be smiling this week as the old ground hog adage certainly has proven true this winter. Sunday, the second of February and also well known as "ground• hog day," dawned bright and very sunny with temperatures reaching forty degrees in the shade — and, of course, the old groundhop had no trouble in see. ing 'his shadow. This fine wealh• er continued throughout the day and evening hours, and almost immediately after midnight the winds whipped up and the snow started to descend in undesirable amounts. Driving conditions on Monday were difficult to say the least, and Tuesday has proven very lit. tie better. Although the school buses made their usual trips in the morning, the local'mail truck failed to arrive, we ;presume on account of driving conditions. Forecasts call for a clearing of conditions Tuesday afternoon and perhaps we can look forward to another reprieve from winter's stormy blast. The failure of the mail truck to arrive on Tuesday morning has really placed the folks at the Standard office in a binding con. clition. This is the mail delivery that usually bring in news from our correspondents and the set- ting of the- ;tetras is -completed -completed during morning and afternoon hours. With the mail not expect. ed to arrive until the five o'clock delivery, we will find ourselves with the correspondence still to set up, along with work that norm ally takes us to one or two o'clock in the morning to complete under normal circumstances, So, l , 31ou find a few more mistakes in the old blizzard than usual this week, you will have a better understand• ing of our problem. The later we work in the night time hours, the chiller and duller we find our senses becoming, We hesitate to even think of what they will be like this week! --.Just a little note to our nor. idaites; and we must. also not for. get Mrs. Fairsorvice who is escap• lug the winter with Scott, Jean and Maralyn in California: the weather of the past couple of weeks has .,been ideal. Gentle thawing conditions had reduced our snow banks to a minimum and fields were starting to bare in many places. In fact it had been so good that we found our• selves rarely thinking of our "for- tunate few" in the south, But you will notice we used the past tense in this paragraph and Mon• day morning served well enough to revive us from our brief so• journ from the type of weather we can expect two or three months hence. PERSONALS Mr, and Mrs. Ronald Philp, Stephen and Michael, .visited on Sunday with 'Mr. and Mrs, R, D. Philp. Mrs, Kate Hicks and son, Frank, of Centralia, visited with her bro. tier, Mr, Frank Marshall and Mrs, Marshall on Friday, Frank also called on his cousin,' Mr. Robert. Marshall and family. Miss Sherri Marshall, daughter of Mr, and Mrs. Robert Marshall, is a patient In the Stratford Gen. eral Hospital. We wish her a speedy recovery. 1 Win, 1 fiasco For Merchants The Myth Merchants travelled to Zurich last Friday night and came home the winners of the best played game of the sea• son. This game proved Blyth in. to a four•point first place lead. Zurich opened the scoring at the 13 minute mark to take a erre nothing lead at the end of the first period. The second period provided plenty of fast action and hard hitting by Ken Daer and Jim Peitz on the Blyth defence. Larry Boyd scored fur I3lyth at 12:35 of this period and It proved to be the only goal of the frame. The third period belonged to the Merchants as they outscored their opponents 6 to 2 and ended the game with a 7 to 3 victory. Larry Boyd scored two quick goals to give him the hat trick for his evening's work. Doug Mc. Dougall, John Stewart, Ken Daer and Robbie Lawrie banged home one each. On Sunday night in the Blyth arena the Merchants took part in a real fiasco as a visiting Monkton squad trounced them 16 to 6. Doug McDougall, Ron Henry, Ken Lee, Don Aubin, Larry Boyd and John Stewart were the Blyth marksmen. The team will seek revenge on Friday night when they travel to Monkton for a game in that com- munity. Sunday night will see the fellows at hone to the Zurich squad in a game that will be a battle for first place in the stand• ings, Plan-- now. to - attend •and give the team your support. March of Dimes Canvass Successful Myth's Marching Mothers were out on the job last week collecting for the March of Dimes Campaign and received an extremely fine reception from Blyth residents. 'A total of $290,30 was collected this year and amounts to an in• crease over the $259.55 received in last year's campaign.

The wicket will be open for regular business all day Wed. nesday and closed Saturday af• ternoons. This is just in reverse of the present setup. The lobby will he open for the convenience of box holders every day except Sunday until 7 p.m. Saturday wicket hours will be from 8 a.m. until 12 noon. Rural mail carriers will con• tine to deliver mail six days a week. Fun Game Nets $80. The big "game of the year" played last Friday night in the Blyth Arena between the Blyth Lions and Firemen turned out to be a fairly successful venture, although the crowd and money taken in at the wicket were con• sfderably lower than last year's effort. A total of $80,20 was taken in at the gate and $41.00 went to the Firemen and the remainder to -the Lions. Jack Lee very gen. erously offered his refereeing ser• vices free gratis and helped to keep expenses at a minimum. The game itself was a very ev- enly venly played contest and provided some pretty good laughs and some_pretty,.good•,expitement for those who attended. We suppose In a fun game of this .natdre it might not be ethical to mention who won or the score of the game. Suffice it to say that if the Lions were out for revenge --•- as was pointed out in last week's Stand. and -- "they didn't get it!" Not even with the assistance of a new coach!

THE BLYTH STANDARD -- WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 5th, 1969 SUGAR and SPIcB Maga By Bill Smile) 1011•16 THE "GENERATION GAP" This week, 1 showed my students a film about the much vaunted "Generation Gap," and then had them write un essay on it. .The gap, not the film, Coincidentally, on that very day 1 received two letters that gave me new thoughts about the "gap." One was from my old high school math teacher t don't mean that he was old. it was just a long time ago. It was a pleasant shock to hear from him. The pleasure carne from his report that he was alive and well and curling and skiing. The shock was the realization that the gentleman we "Old Fiem" is only about 22 years older than 1 am, Strangely (as things so often happen in this world), I was talking about • him in school that very day. The kids and I were talking about corporal punishment, strapping, slapping. the whole business, called I told thein about how Miss Liza McCullough used to break pointers over my head regularly, and Miss Mary Walker used to strap me and my young brother and a kid called Gee•Gee Relyea three times a .week, whether we needed it or not. And we liked them. And how Mr. • Cosgrove, our science teacher, a man of gigantic proportions and the patience .of a saint, used to sweep two of us oft our stools with one cuff. And we never held it against hinm. And how my old math teacher, at a point when even the angels would he tried, used to give us a punch, with two knuckles, just below the ribs, And we liked and respectedhim, when we got our breath back. Those people got a rotten deal, financially and socially, from the community. But at least they could clobber a kid, and that's - worth a lot of gooney. 1f you even shake your finger at some rotten little hoodlum nowadays, be either turns nut to be a barrack• room lawyer, or else he's too big to clip on the ear, because he could eat you alive, and would. My other -letter, the same day, was a chatty, friendly' one from one of my last year's students, note at university, enclosing a parody of Hemingway .she thought I'd enjoy. how's that? 'Three generations, and no discernible :gap. Maybe it's because none of us are teenagers any more. "Old 'Flem" would like "Young Ruth, and I'd enjoy talking to .both of them. We)1, to go back to the beginning, some of the essays assign- ed were. revealing. One blames the gap on age. Another says it's been there since Shakespeare, .whieh is true, Others say it's been blown out of all proporation by the news media. seeking for conflict and the sensational. Another says: "It is just ..the intense tear children have .mcbilized in their . parents. And of course, fear of the unknown is the most powerful fear in roan," The same ane says: "Near has advanced to prejudice, and prejudice is a deadly emotion to deal with, Deadly because it 1 composed of blind hate between strangers, And hate is a policeman' face as he confronts a barefoot 'girl, or a principal's face as he con• fronts a longhaired .boy." And on:'•"Then there are the •adults who, posing as shocked and indignant, eat up such propaganda as '"Wild in the Streets," search rowspapers for teenage orgies on LSD, thrust mimeo graphed sheets of drug -addiction symptoms, anct systematically punch ,out woi'(s such as job, college, goals, money and future. This essay ends with the suggestion that, while this gap i'; not as serious as racial or religious prejudice, it is closing people's minds.Adults fear a revolution, but'.the young people, "to nig knowledge have .not even thought of such a thing. however, gettin v, stronger and stronger every day, is the young people's urge just to be left alone, This tendency cotdd be just as disunifying as .1 revolution." Glad to hear from you, "Old Flom," and you, "Young ,Ruth." And all I can say is "Phooey to you, Kim Smiley," -Whose .opinions fragmented, appear ,in the quotation marks above. 1I!Iiutlrauiiirl.Pi!,il! uu!UI',!4!!Iii!hI!h l!Itu(i!!ii'Idipu ful!upi!ii!umilLi!Iu1uli I!a!iota!Viduilluiu!l,iiili!til!du!dIll If11d1141111111!i!1111111111!In!1111111!IIICVI1I1111Il 1111glh THE BLYTH STANDARD Serving the Biyth Community sine 18ftri Douglas eWhitmore, Publisher.

Our generation provides ample evidence of the truth of that statement, The people who pride them• ,eyes upon being "enlightened" frequently confront the Christian with the demand to "prove" the existence of God. Now there are sonic things that can be proven matheniat- ically, some can he proven logically and some can be proven scion- lifscally. Any such proof however, is extremely limited in the area in which it operates. The major part of life is outside the area of orgy 01 these proofs. Honour, justice, loyalty, faithfulness and love, which, after all are the basic factors in life can not be proven by any of these methods. You can not put God in a test tube nor weigh him on the scales. Most of life proceeds on enormous probabilities. 1 go into a restaurant for a ureal -- 1 can not prove that 1 will not get food poisoning, 1 get info a plane for a flight — 1 can not prove that it. will not crash or be hi hacked. 'There is ample grounds to believe however that either of these enterprises -will come out as I expect, ;ince for most people they do. If ones life is to be limited to the area of that which he tai!. prove it will be a very limited existence and to say the least it will not qualify as satisfactory living. Jesus never undertook to prove the existence of God and we cannot prove it to a person who has nude up his mind to reject the idea. The experience of multitudes of people through the centuries is that there is antp)e evidence to support the conviction and that it is a way of life that works. The Psalmist says "0 taste and see that the Lord is flood. happy is the ratan who takes refuge in him."
