Veterans from Westmin- ister Hospital recently were guests of Seaforth Legion on Branch 156 at an outdoor brebecue at the home of Henry Zeiler.

It was an hiformal affair -the fOod was prepared • outdoors and , served "a la barbecue" which precluded dinner jackets and court- • mounted decorations.

Charlie has taken many prizes in various categories at the Highland Games in the area and at fifteen belongs to the Fort Elgin pipe band as a drummer. Peter credited his son with picking up the art of drumming on tus-own. Charlie has been drumming since he was a very small boy, he said. One anomaly in Pete's pipe repetoir was "Gori - night Irene" which I never knew was a Scottish tune. Mother would have been thrilled -she always, for some strange reason wanted to be a Scot. Br. 156s president Bill Wilbee who lives a few doors away •dropped by to say hello. This is the first year that Henry has held a barbecue on his premises. The branch began visiting the hospital eight ago, Henry said, and for the last four years they have been inviting a group each year for some Seaforth branch hospitality. Henry explained the reason for having the barbecue at Chez Henri was simply because it hadn't been done before and seemed like a good idea. If this is the first year -of the barbecue, it is certainly an event that bears repeating and we hope it is. Any event that ends with cigars and beer has to be popular with the Westrninister men.

Stanley Township in the upcoming November 10 municipal elec- tion. Paul Steckle, deputy -reeve of the township, said this' _week that he's decided to run for reeve after serving as a member of council for six years. Mr. Steckle has been deputy -reeve for the past four year Tom Consitt, a Varna area farmer, presently township reeve, also announced to council members that he'll be seeking re-election to that position. Mr. Steckle said he doesn't think there are any contentious issues in the township. He said he decided to seek the reeve's job since • he feels it's time to move up' the council. Last year Mr. Steckle was one of the Huron County council members who voted in favour of reducing the size of that council by dropping deputy -reeves from it. When asked if he—h-iid voted himself out ,of a job on county council, Mr, teckle said, "I guess you could say that." He added if he wants to continue to serve on county council, the he has to move up to the 'reeve's job 10 the township. He said in , seeking that position, "I'm not fighfing a council member." Mr. Steckle is a township farmer, and an employee of C.G. Farm Supply, RR 3, Zurich. The Expositor was unable to reach Tom Consitt for a comment ,by press time.
