The Lucknow Sentinel, 1978-07-26, Page 19Some from Holyrood go to Chickenfest BY LYNNE NICOLSON I hope everyone has been able to stand this hot and humid weather. The water - holes in this area Should have been getting a good work out this week. We should be thankful though, that we are not experiencing the condi- ,.tions that they have in Texas. They would welcome the little bit of rain that we had on Saturday. Well, enough of the weather, it doesn't seem to have made any one idle on any account. Many from the. area at- tended the 6th annual Chick- enfest held in Walkerton and as usual there was something to please everyone. The midway was even bigger this year than last and there were many more contests as well as a huge parade. Of course the biggest event was the Barbecued Chicken and the arena was packed with chicken eaters. The Chicken Fest was not the only attraction as there was a Tractor Pull in Lucknow and an Art Fest in Goderich. Last week 'j missed a couple of things in my column. One was that Mrs. J. Hughes ended her visit much to the despondency of her family and returned home to Paisley, Scotland, She spent six weeks in Canada. Also that the Kin- loss Girl's Baseball team won their first game of the season against Dungannon. Congra- tulations, girls. Summer is the time for travelling and we have two people who will be doing just that this week. Mr. .and Mrs, F. Page will be going to England this Wednesday, where they will be visiting friends and relatives. 'Hope the weather is pleasant for the duration of their stay. Mr. Lloyd Hanna, R.

Thought for the week: It's Langside BY LILLIAN YOUNG A card party and presenta- tion was held in Teeswater town hall in honour of Bill and Jessie Bates who moved from their farm home to Teeswater early in June. A large crowd of friends and neighbours attended. Prize winners were ladies' high, Mrs. Bill McInnes; ladies' low, Mrs. Syd Smith; men's high went to Jim McInnes and men's low to Ken Scott. Mr. and Mrs. Bates were then called to the front and Dave Moffat read the ad- dress after which they were presented with a tea wagon and an envelope of money by Bob Bregman and Bert Thompson. Bill thanked ev- eryone and said they still lived on the sixth only in a different place and Jessie invited all to visit them. With Mrs. Bert Moffat at the piano all sang "For they are jolly good fellows". A bountiful lunch was served and a social time spent. much easier to do your job right than to explain why you did it wrong.
