Clinton News-Record, 1971-05-13, Page 2BY MAFIG RUDD A surprise party honouring Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hutchins, R, R, 1, Clinton, was held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Grant Irwin, Clinton; on Saturday evening, May 1. The occasion was the. couple's fortieth wedding anniversary. On May 2, 1931, Elsie Osbaldeston and Charles Hutchins were married in Clinton and they have resided in Goderich Township for all of their married life. There are four daughters, Helen, Mrs. Morley Snyder of Ayr; Mary, Mrs. Arthur Eaton of Ayr; Doris, Mrs. Murray Perdue of London; and Bette, Mrs. Grant Irwin of Clinton; one son', Bill, of Goderich and 1 12 grandchildren. * * Last week we mentioned that we were managing to cope with the construction upheaval outside the building, but this week we are not so sure. One must be very careful where one steps, as the walks are all torn up and big stones strew the path. We just hope they wait 'till after we've gone home before the cement is poured or we'll be trapped. * * * People think we hear all kinds of news here which we don't divulge, but not so. For instance, we didn't even know our neighbour, Mr. Harold Swan, was leaving the block until it was an accomplished fact. Do tell us when things like this are happening. This seems to be a time for church suppers in the area and all kinds of bake sales and rummage sales. We wish all who are endeavouring to raise money this way, success. * * * The Fire Department responded to two fire calls last week. The first was about supper time on Wednesday, when a gasoline truck was on fire as it came through the main intersection. Employees of Lorne Brown Motors, who saw it coming, were ready with foam extinguishers and had the blaze put out by the time the firemen arrived. Thanks to the quick actions of these" men, a serious mishap was prevented. On Saturday evening the Department answered a call to the western outskirts of the town near the Elm Haven where pranksters had set fire to a pile of tires. Not only are acts like this a nuisance to firemen and police, but such a fire damages the road surface. * * * The hospital needs vases of all shapes and sizes for flower containers. Members of the Women's Auxiliary are having a shower of vases at their June meeting. If you have one or two to spare, send them up to Clinton Public Hospital.

MURPHY LIMITED CHRYSLER -PLYMOUTH DEALER 134 HURON STREET, CLINTON, ONTARIO' Fargo has 'the "FLAIR" for ti: Adventurer Sport Just as you shop carefully for other services, you should also compare prices, services and extras offered by different moving companies. Moving companies give free estimates. The Canadian Association of Movers is sponsoring a program to provide training for estimators. Estimators, of course, try to give estimates which are as accur6te as possible but you must remember that it is an' estimate and may not be the final figure. Enquire about extra costs. Extras could include packing into boxes and unpacking in E your new house (more.wensive but a great time saver) and "adequate protection" insurance. Unless you declare an increased valuation for your belongings and arrange for this extra protection, the moving company's liability is limited to 30 cents per pound per package. As lightweight things such as china are the most likely to' break, 30 cents per pound per package may not be enough. The condition of furniture will be written down when movers start their work. You will be asked to sign to show you agree that some things are marred, scratched, or chipped. When your furniture is unloaded you can inspect to see if any additional damage has been done. You again will be asked to sign a form saying you've received the goods and you'be inspected. If you're in a hurry or haven't had a chance to inspect, write on the form "acknowledge receipt of goods only, not yet inspected" or a similar sentence to show you are not giving up your right to claim for, damages. Unless you have arranged 7otlierWiSe, you will be expected to pay in full for your move when your furniture is unloaded. Cash, a money order or a certified cheque is usually required. If you give a delivery date but someone isn't there to open the door, or if you can't move into your new home by that day, you probably will have to pay for "storage-in-transit" which can be costly. When you plan your move, budget for items such as delays. Movers expect you to have your major appliances disconnected; to take down wall fixtures such as pictures, mirrors, and drapery tracks; to clean out the refrigerator; to tell the milkman, newsboy, subscription offices of magazines, the telephone, water, gas, oil and electric companies you're moving. You may have to move pets, plants, jewelry, currency and documents yourself as few movers will take that responsibility. * Compare prices for services offered. Know what you are expected to do and what the mover has been hired to do. Despite what estimate has been given to you, you must remember that the moving company must charge according to his filed tariff which is based on actual weight and distance travelled. - THE SECRET'S OUT, "FUEL KIDS" WE ABE, FOR SPLENDID SERVICE HOW WE STAR!

THE HOMETOWN "RAPER By Ed Davies There is something about the most of us No matter where we go We have within a longing At least we've found it so To keep in touch with neighbours While wondering up and down And we love to have the paper from our hometown. It receives a hearty welcome, As it makes its regular round Telling us of our friends, And where they may be found It sort of keeps together, Heart strings entwined The voice from our home town, where town and people seem combined. It tells us of our businessmen, Shovelling snow both front and back It carries news to cheer us oh, News from our own home front Folks like us away receive it, And hold it in renown We're so glad to get out paper, From our dear hometown.
