20 Years Ago
FEBRUARY 1957
Miss Mary McQueen, a member
of a pioneer Kinloss Township
family, passed away at Baker's
Private Hospital, Lucknow, age
90.
Lucknow was being featured by
word and picture in the Toronto
Telegram. A staff writer and
photographer visited the Village
seeking material for the article and
were greeted by an old-time
midwinter blizzard, which didn't
make their task any easier.
The newly organized Lucknow
District Lions Club was officially
presented with their charter at a
special evening when close to 300
"roaring Lions" 'packed the .Luck-
now Recreation Centre. The
opening night enrollment of 92
members gave the Lucknow Dist-
rict Club the third largest mernber-
ship of 'some sixty clubs in Zone
Al.
Lucknow WOmen's Institute, in
common with many other branch-
es, commemorated the 60th anniv-
ersary of the founding of the
movement. ' The Lucknow Branch
of the Institute was in its 49th year.
40 YEARS AGO

Shrove Tuesday, the day before
Lent and which became known as
Pancake Tuesday from the common
practise of eating pancakes, was
observed by the Women's Guild of
St. Peter's Church. But the
pancake was discarded and in its
place the bill of fare was a full
course chicken dinner that a large
number partook of.

HAVEN NEWS
January has been a very stormy
month with plenty of snow to
shovel and many school and
program cancellations.
We wish to welcome three new
residents to our home this month,
namely, Miss Margaret Ann Mc- '
Lennan of Glamis, Mr.. Joseph
Kraemer' of Teeswater and Mr.
Wilford Dippel of Walkerton.
Our Residents Council met on
January 4th at 10.30 a.m. in the
tuck shop area. There were
fourteen present with quite a bit of
business to be discussed. Mrs.
Jennie Robb gave an interesting
reading and each one expressed
the desire for better weather.
We had two *movies in January,
one on Wednesday, January 12th
and the other on' Wednesday,
January 26th. They proved both
interesting and informative. We
also held four bingos and five
euchres ourselves during the
month and had excellent turnouts
for them all. We also have four
ladies that play bridge together and
four men that play solo almost
every day.
The C.W.L.' held their monthly
euchre on January 13th with Mrs.
Wm. Farrell and Teddy Ellis
winning the high prizes, and Bessie
McArthur and Gordon Brown the
low prizes.
The Ladies Auxiliary of the
Legion _came on Friday, January
14th and put on their monthly
bingo. Mrs. Mary Cassidy called
the numbers and Mrs. Verna
Clancy and helpers served a
delicious lunch.
The Happy Heirts Club of Ripley
sponsored the monthly birthday
party on January 25th. There were
six residents with birthdays during
the month of January. Reg. Moore
was M.C. for the program and Mrs.
Violet MacKenzie was the pianist.
Gladys 'Arnold gave the presidents
remarks and Reg Moore led in a
lively sing song. Mrs. Anne
McCosh gave a humourous reading
followed by several Scotch violin
selections by Jack Scott. Next was
a skit "School Days" directed by
Mrs. Violet MacKenzie. Those
taking part were Florence Kirkpat-
rick, Mary D. MacDonald, Reg
Godfrey, 'Mary J. A. MacDonald,
Gladys Arnold, Reg Moore and
Mrs. Violet MacKenzie. It was
very very comical and our residents
enjoyed it thoroughly. Rev. Jim
Bushell of the United Church
Ripley sang two beautiful solos .and
Anne McCosh gave another Scot-
tish reading. The birthday resid-
ents were brought to the front and
res nted with a suitable gift. The
ies served birthday cake and ice
cream to bring 'to a close a most
enjoyable afternoon. Many thanks
to the Happy Hearts Club. Our
ministers for the month were the
Salvation Army, Capt McAllister,
Hanover; Rev. D. Sinclair, Baptist,
Hanover; Rev. J. Dookram, Trinity
Lutheran, Walkerton; Communion
Service was also held by the
Walkerton ministers. Rev. Ferris
of St. Thos. Anglican Church,
Walkerton had prayer service,
Tuesday, January 18th at 7 p.m.
and Communion Service on Tues-
day, January 25 at 10.30 a.m,
Father Newstead had mass in our
chapel 'on January 24th at 10.45
a.m. Our thanks also goes out to
the lay people of Sacred Heart,
Walkerton for bringing communion
to our residents each Sunday.
Our sympathy is extended to the
families of the following residents
who passed away during the month
of January, namely, Mrs. Agnes
Reinhart, Mildmay, Miss Jessie
Kerney, Walkerton, Mr. Wesley
Hedley, Kinlough and Mr; George
