RIVERVIEW ESTATES MOBILE HOME' COMMUNITY riverview estates mobile home park By JOY SCHEIFELE Poodles, mongrels, kittens, goats, turtles, rabbits, doves and pigeons all kept arriving at Craigholme Nursing Home in Ailsa Craig Wednesday morning. Even "mini toads" appeared on the scene. The children of the area responded to the invitation to enter their pets in a Pet Show at the Nursing Home with tremendous enthusiasm and obvious pride in their pet, or pets, last week. Three little kittens (without any mittens) arrived at the Nursing Home in a doll carriage pushed by their young owner. The tiny kittens stared back wide eyed at all who admired them, ADAMS Heating & Cooling Phone 235-2187 133 Huron St. East, Exeter Shop At Wilson's Jewellery 413 Main St. - Exeter a PLEASING YOU — PLEASES 'US OPEN FOR INSPECTION Daily From 1:00 to 8:00 p.m. A lively three week old baby goat gave her mother quite a problem at times as well as owner, Desta Rock, as she at- tempted to taste everything at hand including a few new, young shrubs. One of the more timid feline entries panicked shortly before the judging began and started un a homeward race. However owner, Mrs. J. Walsh, managed to catch up and whisper a few reassuring words in the ear of the unnerved contestant seconds before it had a chance to climb the nearest tree, Surprisingly only a couple of dog vs. cat and dog vs. dog situations took place which were quickly settled by mothers running interference. The residents of the home were able to enjoy the proceedings from either windows in the main lounge, or from garden chairs out under the canopy at the front of the building. The children walked around several times with their pets for the judges and residents to view. There were twenty-eight entries in all. Miss Sarah Carson, Mrs. Thelma Nichols and Mrs. Rose Trivithick, residents at the hb"frid,,- acted as judges for the show. Prizes were awarded to Jimmy Walsh for the best trained dog, Todd Campbell for the best was among the many children from their kmimal friends tolhe pet show Wednesday morning.

FARM SUPPLY LIMITED 236-4934 ZURICH 236-4321 By JOY SCHEIFELE Ailsa Craig's well known butcher, John Bender, took up the challenge of turning five hundred pounds of first rate beef into delicious bar-b-que dinners for the community during the Gala Days over the Civic Holiday weekend. Assisted by Owen Bice and Jim Walsh, John proved his expertise as nearly 500 in- dividuals enjoyed the end result on Monday evening. It was necessary to rise as early at 1:30 a.m. to light the charcoal in the large outdoor metal oven. When the charcoal reached the proper stage, twelve forty poundiroasts were carefully placed in the oven over the hot coals. From then until serving time, it was cruical that the meat be carefully watched and cared for continuously. "The temperature in the oven can vary as much as a full hundred degrees", John stated as he checked on the beef. "If the sun is really strong it adds in- tensely to the heat of the oven. And if it happens to rain, it can cool the oven down con- siderably". On Monday con- trolling the heat proved no simple matter as the skies changed and clouded over frequently throughout the day. Earlier this summer, John had worked with Leroy Parsons during the Ontario beef Association annual beef bar-b- que at Poplar Hills to picklup on a few of the important knacks of such an undertaking. "You never add any spices or flavourings", John mentioned. "Otherwise you have a hard crust forming on the outside of the meeat. Also you might lose the charcoal taste Which is so important". The metal oven used for the event was borrowed from the Ontario Beef Association, and is especially built for such func- tions, It stands about four feet high and is approximately five feet wide. The potatoes for the meal were baked in aluminum foil over hot coals in the pit built for the chicken bar-b-que Saturday evening which five hundred individuals attended. Earlier on Monday morning approximately three hundred early morning risers enjoyed the Special Gala Day breakfast of pancakes, sausages, bacon and eggsand coffee at the gall Park.
