Home My WebLink AboutThe Huron Expositor, 1985-07-24, Page 26A8 - THE HURON EXPOSITOR, JULY 31, 1985 CONTINENTAL TRAVELS - if balloons could talk this one held by 10 -year-old Nikl Phillips, could have a number of interesting stories to tell. Released at the time of the Tuckersmith Sesquicentennial Celebrations Niki's balloon was found July 9 by a farmer . and his wife as they were baling hay on their dairy farm near Goshen, Indiana. Says Niki about the find, "I forgot all about the balloon. I was surprised because I didn't think I'd ever hear back from anyone. I'll write a thank -you to the people for writing to me but I don't know yet whether I'll be a penpal or not. It's an older lady, a mother, who wrote me." (Mcllwraith photo) Reunite (Continued from page A5) Steven McCullough were the ushers at the United Church on Sunday morning. 'Belva Fuss was the organist and Gary Kyle the Junior Congregation leader. The flowers at the front of the church were placed in honor. of the marriage of Linda Gerstenkorn and Chris Shearer married in the church on Saturday, and also in loving memory of Ida Munn. There will be no service at the church next Sunday when Mr. McDonald will have a Sunday holiday. The congregation are invited to worship at the Presbyterian Church with Rev. Knight and his congregation at 11:30 a.m. The beautiful Sunday afternoon added much to the ,Memorial Remembrance Day Service at the Hensall Union Cemetery on Sunday afternoon. Many of the graves were beautifully decorated for the day. The service, arranged by the Cemetery Board, was conducted by the Rev. Stan McDonald with Bob Cameron leading the music on the organ. Following the service many of those attending visited the graves in an act of remembrance. Great Continued from Page A2 it to a party, then taking it back to the mail order office and returning it, claiming it was "too small" or had smudge marks in the armpits (after she'd discoed in it for four hours). They wouldn't steal from a friend. They might steal from their parents. But they have no compunction about "ripping off" a department store or the government. This is fact, not fancy, as I've learned in discussions about morals. Back to the garage sales. There is no suggestion of stealing here. Both parties, buyer and seller, are perfectly aware of what's going on. The seller is trying to get rid of something he doesn't need. The buyer is buying something he doesn't need. It's a classic example of our materialistic age. We want to get nd of some of the garbage we've bought, and the buyer wants to buy some more garbage. The epitome of a garage -sale -groupie would be a person who goes to four garage sales, buys a lot of junk, then has a garage sale to dispose of it, preferably with a small mark-up, But they're fun. A friend of mine, who'll make a bid on anything, even though he doesn't know what it's for, has bought two old-fashioned horse-drawn sleighs. He has worked on them until they are serviceable All he needs now is a couple, of beasts to haul the things. He'll probably wind up with a camel and a Shetland pony (and will make a fortune hauling people around when we run out of gas). Well, I should have a garage sale. First, I'd sell the garage, a venerable institution. None of this electronic eye, or press a button and the door opens. It has a vast door, weighing about 800 pounds. You hoist the door and it slides on pulleys and cables, and at the right moment, on a good day, it stops rising just at the height to tear off your radio aerial. The balances filled with sand, aren't quite enough from crashing down on your hood, but I've fixed that. To one, I've added an axe -head, to the other, a quart of paint. Perfect balance. A real buy. Behind the garage is a sort of tool shed. I say "sort of", because when I've sailed into the garage on a slippery mid -winter day, I've sometimes gone an extra foot and crashed into the tool shed, which now leans about 35 degrees to the north. ra throw in the tool shed with the garage, but not its contents. Migawd, the stuff in there would bug the eyes of either an antique dealer or a garage -groupie. We have garden tools in there that haven't been used since Sir John A. MacDonald's wife told him to get his nose out of that glass and go out and stir up the garden. We have at least four perfectly good tires 'for a 1947 Dodge. We have enough holy tarpaulin (or is it holey? I've never known) to build a theatre under the stars. There's a perfectly good set of golf clubs, a wee bit rusty. There's a three-legged garden tool that must have come over with Samuel de Champain. There's a three -wheeled lawn mower (mechanic's special). Six hundred feet of garden hose that a little adhesive would fix. And many more, too miscellaneous to mention. And that's only the tool shed. Inside the house, we have eight tons of books, left by our children. The attic is going to come right through to the kitchen, one of these days. How about a copy of Bhagavadgita, 1,000 pages, at $1? Man, I wish I'd got this idea off the ground about two months ago. Anyone interested in an iron crib, sides go up and down, filled with three hundred dollars worth of broken toys, exotic paintings, some records and a bag of marbles? Who needs to retire, with all this wealth lying around? QUALITY SERVICE PRICE FRIENDLY COURTESY CARRY OUT SERVICE STORE HOURS Mon., Wed., Sat.
