They worked at a good many clean-up projects, in this and many other areas, when they might have been lazing away the hot summer days doing nothing more than amusing themselves. nstead they kept themselves busy doing something useful and in the process earned some money to further their education. * * * * * How helpelss humans are against the forces of nature. We have no command over the winds, the waves, the deluges of snow or rain, or the lightening bolts. We can only stand in awe and trembling when nature unleashes the mighty power that makes us realize how puny man really is. In spite of all the scientific knowledge man possesses, the partial conquering of outer space, and nuclear bombs, we must still bow in defeat when nature goes on a rampage. Even Saturday's storm was enough to make us realize that man is not all powerful but that there is a power much greater than we. * * * * ** USE POST WANT-ADS DIAL 887-6641 MITCHELL FAIR FRIDAY AUGUST 29 7 :00 p.m. Western Horse Show Free dancing - "Rollin' Smoke" SATURDAY AUGUST30 WImow McDonalds hold 50th anniversary About 200 relatives, friends and neighbours gathered at Walton Community Hall Saturday evening to mark the Golden Wedding Anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Jos.
