The Lucknow Sentinel, 1987-07-08, Page 11Page 10—Lucknow Sentinel, Wednesday, July 8, 1987 Fun time at camp and the storyofa newborn calf It was fun time at Green Acres Family Camp Ground on Monday, June 29, 1987. First there was the decorated bicycles parade. The judges had a tough time but finally came up with the winners. First place was Janine Farrell dressed up in a clown suit with a balloon decorated bike. Second place went to Matthew Mac- Donald and Kelly Smith as a bride and groom on their streamer decorated bike. Third place went to Amy Farrell dressed in a ballerina costume with s streamer decorated bike. Then later on in the day there was a "free throw" competition for all ages. It was tough, having to throw off between the boys and the girls. The boys had a three way tie between Russ O'Hanley, Jason Wylds, and John Gamble with Jason Wylds coming out the winner. The girls had a two way tie bet- ween Shea Van den Hogen as Tara Chatham with Tara Chatham coming out as the winner. Through the summer, Sheena and Stephanie MacDonald, daughters of Doug and Shirley MacDonald of the 12th east of the 15th road are offering pony rides for the younger children on the weekends. Everyone is welcome to come and enjoy them. Lorne is on holidays With Lorne Emmerton on holidays, his place in the Milling end of the feedmill alongside Bob Middelkamp is being taken by Robert Storey. Showed photo of newborn calf Mrs. Margery ( Ken) MacDonald of Ripley recently got a newspaper clipping from the Observer Reporter newspaper published in Claysville, West Virginia. The picture in the clipping shows a brand new one day old snow white purebred Charolais calf just born the day that the picture was taken at the Arlis Farms of Phyllis and Orley Chambers. Oliver and Marion McCharles of Kincar- dine were travelling to Wheeling, West Virginia. It was reported to be a five day trip arranged by Larry Stanley for Paradise Travel of Walkerton. In the line up of five people admiring the fine calf was Marion McCharles. Here could we mention that Marion and Oliver, before their retirement were the owners of a purebred show herd of Hereford Cattle at Olmar Farms, five miles south of Ripley - "believe it or not village" here. How fortunate they were on this bus and how gracious of Marion to offer their ex- perienced hands in keeping the calf relaxed for the photographer to take his picture NEED Ontario T SUPPORT. NOW. Yourchildren need your support. Your financial support. They need it for all the basic thingschil- dren require: clothing, food; and shelter. Importantly, they need your support on a reg- ular basis. They need to know that they can count on you. As of July 2, 1987, the Support and Custody Enforcement Program will be in place to ensure that support and custody responsibilities among family members are met. The well-being of your children depends on it.

Moved here from Holyrood Perhaps you will recall that Winston Allen, .his wife Karen, and their son just a year ago made the move from their Holyrood store to reside on William Street in Ripley. Winston is the manager of the Lucknow Post Office, commuting back and forth, his wife Karen is one of the assistant clerks in Lynn Nicholson's Ripley Superior Market Store, and their son Scott Allen who attends school here and takes an active .part in Ripley sports. Special Agricultural Society Meeting Next Monday evening is the second Mon- day in the month of July - July 13th. Note it is to be special. Something important com- ing up, yes be early by one hour to get it done. So it is to start at 8 p.m. instead of nine. Somebody is coming to set up a con- stitution for the Ripley Agricultural Society and that is going to take extra time so Presi- dent Bob Thompson told reporter Ab Wylds. This calls for better linguistics on my part as writer and improved comprehension on your part as the reader. So out comes the big dictionary to define such words as constitu- tion, constitute, constituent, constituted authorities, constitutionalist, constitutive, constituency and constitutional - no wonder Bob said it would take some time. Here are the definitions for a few of these jaw breaker words. The rest you can .look, up. Constitution: the system of fundamental laws of a nation, state or society. Constitute: to compose or make up. Constituted authorities: government collectively, (the board) and finally — a constitutional: a walk taken for the benefit of health. I like the last one, don't you probably need it after going through this material which is already printed lathe front pages of this year's prize list. President of the lady directors, Mrs. Margery MacDonald riding the bike brought a new 1987 prize list to Ab here last Thursday evening. It has been loaned a cou- ple of times since to interested folks. By the way in case you do not know and I was one of those - Margery shortens it to Marge not Marj as in the list, so change that please in your book. But keep on pronouncing it the same (Marj),. Happy Hearts Church Service The Happy Hearts Citizen Church service will be held July 19, 1987 in St. Andrews United Church in Ripley. Hope to see all of you folks there. On holidays out west Ken and Jenny MacDonald and Elmer and Gladys Wylds are on a holiday trip to Western Canada. They left on Sunday morn- ing motoring to Tobermory then to Manitoulin, and Sault Ste. Marie and on. They counted on visiting the Calgary Stampede. They expect to go from there. Gladys and Jenny are sisters - Lamont girls, sisters of Lloyd and George of 6th con. Huron Township. Wedding Anniversary, birthday A double celebration was held in the Anglican Parish Hall in Paisley on Sunday, July 5 for Mr. and Mrs. Norman Hagedorn who celebrated their 60th Wedding Anniver= sary and the 80th birthday for Mrs. Norman Hagedorn. A dinner was held for the im- mediate family - brothers and sisters. A very unique factor was that the original wedding party were all able to attend the dinner. Following the dinner, a family gathering was held at Saugeen Bluffs where friends and family enjoyed a picture taking session and a picnic supper. Along with ten children and spouses there were 116 grandchildren, great grand- children, and one great great grandchild, three brothers, three sister -in-laws and one sister were in attendance. The occasion was acknowledged by Dr. Gary Gurbin, P.M. Brian Mulroney, and the Queen. Their daughter Gladys and husband James Cornish of the 6th Con. of Huron Township and their family attended. And daughter Gladys made this report on the occasion.
