Brussels fortunateto e free disaster'
from
The error, or folly, of a moment can become
the sorrow of a lifetime.
Nature can be cruel with overpowering
ravishment. Last Thursday night, in Chey-
enne, Wyoming, a violent thunderstorm
wrought havoc when 15 centimeters of rain
poured down in 31/4 hours. At least 12 people
lost their liges.
Parts of the city got 10 centimeters of hail,
forcing people to flee to emergency shelters.
Street crews used front-end loaders to clear
the blocked streets. Cars and trucks floated
down flooded streets. Telephone booths were
wrenched from their bases, and power and
telephone lines were down. Basements all
over the city were flooded. It was reported
that"there were thousands and thousands, if
not millions, of dollars in property damage."
How fortunate that, as yet, this area has
escaped any serious disaster.
Michael Warren announced his resigna-
tion as Canada Pot president on Thursday of
last week. Some reports say he was asked
(paid) to leave, others that he was fed up with
what he considered government interference
in the, Crown Corporation.
Revenue Minister Perrin Beatty was quick
to insist the reports of interference • were
"entirely .false." Mr. Warren not only
announced his resignation on Thursday, he
also got married that day at a downtown
Ottawa courthouse. Itis said he wanted out
and that many people on the government side.
wanted him out.
Hecan now enjoy a honeymoon with his
bride without worrying about the woes of
Canada Post.
A number of odd wedding ceremonies have
been reported. This one, mentioned in a
recent newspaper item, is the most off -beat of
them all: "The blushing bride wore a veil,
high heels and nothing else. (No wonder she
blushed.( The handsome groom wore shiny
shoes and his birthday suit,
The bride's 'mother wore goosebumps all
over. Only the grooms parents wore clothes ---
and pained expressions. They studied the
ceiling through the nude nuptials."
Who would perform a wedding in such
crude circumstances? Was the item just a
tongue-in-cheek joke pawned off on gullible
readers?
In our later years, as we think back, are
SHORT SHOTS
by Evelyn Kennedy
there things we regret? Things we have or
have not done, for which we feel remorse?
Could we have been kinder? more thoughtful
and considerate of others? Have some of our
actions brought trouble or sadness to others?
Were we always too busy and put off, until it
was too late, things we should have done? It is
felt many of us do have regrets and remorse.
W e could have been a better person.

PEOPLE
Michael Henry of Goderich is spending this
week with his grandmother Mrs. Eluned
McNair.
Mr. and Mrs. Bob Flanigan and family, of
Merton were weekend guests of Mr. and
Mrs. Fred Suite.
There will be a farewell party for Mr. and
Mrs. Jerry Dillow and family on Fri., Aug. 9
in the Brussels, Morris and Grey Community
Centre with dancing from 9 to 1. This is a
family get-together and ladies please bring a
lunch. •
Omar Sharif, the Egyptian actor, who
had the reputation of being a lady's man was
once asked what one should talk to women
about. He said, "How beautiful they are."
"But, what if they are plain." "Then" he
replied, "about other womens' plainness."
With student jobs hard to come by a
15 -'ear -old student in Victoria annlied for a
job. The ad sounded rather fishy but she
needed a job. After 20 applicants were
interviewed she was accepted.
She donned a mermaid's outfit and went to
work catching customers for seafood dinners
at the Villages Restaurant. At first she was
hesitant. Now she is enjoying it. She had a
marriage proposal the first day.
Occasionally someone will lean out of a car
window and shout "Do you want to go
fishing?" The restaurant owner says it has
been a good promotion: "I have. sold more
food in the last week than I've ever sold in this
restaurant."
The young lady must be as attractive as the
mermaid who was said to sit on a rock and
sine to lure sailors to destruction.
