One of the numbers was rendered for his grandad, who had told him of this number being sung by The Corley Hunter choir in James St. Church revival meeting in 1907. Doug Stephen played several numbers on his harmonica accompanied by his son David on the man­ dolin and Bob on the ac­ cordion and Jeff on drums. We were also favoured with several numbers by Centralia quartette con­ sisting of Doug Gill, Sam Skinner, Bob Blair and Bob Heywood. Bob then in­ troduced Mr. Joe Bolan from Zurich who played numerous lovely numbers on violin along with Bob on accordion • and Jeff on drums. Among them being the sacred number i;I saw the light-, It is no secret what God can do, joined in by the audience singing this beautiful number. Again Doug Stephen and David provided several numbers on harmonica and mandolin, also the quartette and ending up the progam some lively old time num­ bers by Joe Bolan and Bob Heywood. A vote of thanks to all who took part in the program were extended by Mrs. Fred Bowden. The business of the evening was conducted by the president Mrs. Rundle with a prayer that is used by Women’s organizations all over Ontario. Roll call was taken by the secretary Mrs. Finkbeiner.

Please pass this message on to any young ■ people you meet, in case they do not read the Corporal’s message. However, some persons do not like cauliflower because a “post-Hallowe’en” litter­ bug sure did a good job in the down town area by smashing cauliflower on sidewalks and lawns. Too bad, many people would like to have had the vegetables for dinner! Rates charged to customers served by On­ tario Hydro’s rural retail system will increase an average of seven per cent in 1979. Ontario Hydro said today that the increase is necessary to recover the higher wholesale cost of power as well as slight in­ creases in retail distribution costs. Increases in wholesale power costs for municipal utilities and direct industrial customers were announced last month. It was also announced that as in 1978, bills based on. metered energy will con­ tinue to be reduced by an anti-inflation discount dur­ ing 1979. It now seems cer­ tain that the high sales of 7 percent energy to the U.S. and better than predicted performance by the nuclear plants’ will result in excess 1978 ear­ nings as measured by the AIB guidelines. The discount as adjusted from time to time will en- * sure that the rural retail system’s share of this ex­ cess is returned to its customers during 1979. The effect of the increase on individual customers will vary depending on their con­ sumption and classification. For example, a typical rural residential customers’ monthly bill of $38.25 will in­ crease by approximately $3. Details of the new rates will be mailed to all rural retail customers. competition, Donald Nott will have field crops up for judging, and Alex Ostrom will show Jerseys.
