SANTA WILL BE AT EXETER PUBLIC SCHOOL AFTER THE PARADE TO VISIT WITH HIS FRIENDS A message from ghost this side of the dark side by Gordon Bagley The usual course of action when starting a column is in- troducing oneself in any ouniber of vicarious ways. I'm not about to do that. I want to tell you a story instead; a story I think deserves notice because it was almost the death of me last week — it coeld have been. It was a clear night, around 11 p.m. when I walked out the back door of the Times-Advocate. I could hardly keep my eyes open and I had a headache, having spent too many hours peering over the keys of my typewriter. It wasn't without relief that I settled in behind the wheel of my car (I call it the grey ghost because it's so old) — lit a cigarette, turned on the radio, and pulled out on the highway, heading for home, At first I hardly noticed% Then the sound grew louder, "The spare tire has come loose," I thought and pulled over to the side of the road, I went back to the trunk, opened it, and checked the fastener that secures the spare. "That's strange, I said to my shadow, caused by the trenklight, and filling that space like a fugitive companion; "the tire's fastened tight." It was 11:15, I was almost honie.I was too tired to think about it. I plimbed back into the ear, As I accelerated the thumping returned, very loud at 40, died down again, returned at 60, I began to worry, in spite of my headache, "Maybe the universal joint is coming undone," I thought, "Maybe my tran- smission is going to fall out. I'll be stuck on the highway till dawn." Transmission trouble is no joke, It can cost you friends, it can make you late for interviews, it can spoil conversations; all things more important than money, I didn't like to think about the cost and I didn't like to hear the sound I assumed to be faulty transmission; so I turned up the radio, a song by Pink Floyd called the Dark Side of the Moon, I could still hear the rumbling under the music. Cars ap- proached, a steady stream of them, materialized out of nowhere on a highway deserted just a moment before, Many gather for surprise By MRS. HAMILTON HODGINS WHALE N Many neighbors and relatives gathered Friday evening at a surprise housewarming for Mr. & Mrs. Gerald Hem who recently moved into their new home. The surprise party was planned by Mr. & Mrs. Larry Hern and Mr, & Mrs. Gordon Hern. Mr. & Mrs. Cleve Pullman moved to Exeter this past week. Sunday evening supper guests with Mr. & Mrs. Bill Morley were Mr, & Mrs. Bill Brock and Jeremy, Exeter, Mr. & Mrs. Gerald Hern, Mr. & Mrs, Gordon Hem and Mr. & Mrs. Larry Hern and boys, They were celebrating Mrs. Morley's and Gerald Bern's birthdays. Mr. & Mrs. Paul Scott, Streetsville visited with Mr, & Mrs. John Scott, Sunday. Last Sunday visitors with Mr. & Mrs. Ernest Ferguson were Mr, & Mrs. Dave Hord and Larry Strathroy, Mrs. Ron Pullman held a Tupperware party Thursday evening at her home. Mr. & Mrs. Bruce Wallis and family of Kitchener were Sunday supper guests with Mr. & Mrs. Alton Wallis. Saturday visitors with Mr. & Mrs. Ernest Ferguson were Mr. & Mrs. Lorne Lucas, Sarnia who recently returned from a trip to California.

Sunday dinner guests with Mr. & Mrs. Earl French following Elizabeth's baptism were Mr. & Mrs. Thos, Hern Sr. of Zion, Mr. & Mrs, Ray Rustin of St, Marys and Mr. & Mrs. Hamilton Hodgins. The annual meeting will be held in the Community Centre on December 12 at 8:30 p.m. They were on one side and. I on the other, we were all travelling at the same speed in different directions. The only thing that saved us was the solid white line — you cross the line and there's an accident . I'm living in London right now. Commuting back and forth until I find a place to live in the Exeter area. It's a 30 minute drive one way and it's 11:35 when my car grinds to a halt on Egerton street, near Dundas, Something is very wrong with my car% When I put it in gear there's a horrible chewing sound — like a cat's teeth through the backbone of a mouse. "That's it", I say,with dollar signs like a misery fumy eyes, "I was almost home too," I slam the door and look under the front axle. Sure enough there is a steady stream of oil spilling out on the ground. I am enraged. I light another cigarette and puff up the street locomotive-style, towards the Red Barn at the corner. The guy behind the counter lets me use his phone to call the wreckers. I'm so angry I have one of their hamburgers. "Lord knows how 1,11 get to work tomorrow," I think, When the wrecker comes I have returned to the car. The wrecker's truck is flashing yellow strobe lights, illuminating the faces of drivers rubber- necking the scene as they go by. There is something em- barrassing about having your car break down. "My transmission's gone," I say as he lifts the back of the gray ghost from the ground with the winch on his truck, "You're transmission is not gone," he says, I've never heard of an automatic transmission falling out." "Well explain the oil on the road then," I say. "It's your transmission all • right he says, walking up front to inspect the gathering pool of oil. Then he stops suddenly, and looks at me strangely, "What's it like," he says . "A bad thumping sound all the way home," I tell him, "at first I thought the spare tire had come loose and was banging around the trunk. Then when I got into town it just went clunk, stopped moving altogether, made a grinding sound." "It was thumping all the way home, you say." "Uh-huh." "Com'mere a minute pal, I got something to show you —" He walks to the rear right wheel, the one on the same side as the spare in the trunk. Taking the mud skirt away from the wheel-well he points at the tire and says, "watch this," One kick and it falls off. Every one of the studs holding the tire to the brake drum are sheered off and the steel part of the wheel is chewed to pieces. Suddenly I realize I drove all the way home on a wheel that could have fallen off at 60 miles an 'hour. I remember the stream of cars coming out of no where. I wonder what it would feel like to cross the white line on three wheels. "Somebody up there likes you Pal," he Says • • • It's a true story. I'll tell you something else. I'm going to check my wheels more often. Oh yes, one last thing — the oil that spilled came from a punctured oil filter which I've since had replaced, along with a new wheel, seized to the brake drum with five shiny and very strong, steel studs, See you .

By the way: With the cost of pork so high these times, it is worthy of note that the only part of the hog the packers waste is the squeal, and the customers furnish that.
