open, informed the Allens. "They
were obviously very bold," said
Allen, noting that the store is locat-
ed directly by a streetlight.
The stolen property, which Allen
estimates at $4,000 includes a Pen-
tium, model 75 multi and Canon,
model BJ-200.
Anyone who may have noticed
anything in the area during the
hours of 5:30 p.m. on Oct. 12 and 8
a.m. on Oct. 14 are asked to contact
the police or Crime Stoppers at 1-

A thief who appears to have a
penchant for fantasy tales targeted
The Book Store in Blyth this past
week for perhaps the second time.
Charlotte Allen, who owns the
business with her husband, Lloyd
said they believe the culprit or cul-
prits are the same as those involved
in a heist, which took place at the
store on May 3. ''They took fanta-
sy books, written by the same
author, as those taken in the previ-
ous break-in," said Allen. The
thieves also stole the computer sys-
Emily Phillips opened the Oct.
15 Blyth UCW meeting with 20
women in attendance.
Dorothy Daer and Mary Lou
Stewart were in charge of the
devotions. "Harvest and Thanks-
giving" was the theme. Scripture
verses, readings and hymns were
chosen relating to this.
Emily conducted the business.
Members are still saving soup
labels and grocery tapes. Also old
nylons and pantyhose will be
needed in January for Grade 4, 5
and 6 girls to stuff dolls with.
Joanne McDonald reminded
everyone that the UCW books
tern, along with the discs and
books.
"They were very meticulous this
time. They went through every
desk drawer and the filing cabinet.
They even found an old duffel bag
of Lloyd's in the backroom which
they emptied and used to carry out
the items they stole."
Allen said entry was gained after
the crooks chiselled the front door
open. A neighbouring businessper-
son, who noticed on the morning of
Oct. 14 that the door appeared to be
close for the year as of Oct. 31.
The next UCW meeting will take
place Nov. 12. This will be a pot
luck luncheon at noon.
Emily asked for "feed back" at
this time as to what members
expect from their UCW and what
plans should be made for the
future.
Emily then introduced Herb Van
Amersfoort, who gave an
interesting and informative talk
about the Foodgrain Bank. This
began in the west in 1983 and has
grown rapidly since that time. One
of the main projects of this
organization is to help needy
people become self-sufficient.
A delicious lunch was provided
by Adeline Campbell, Dorothy
Daer, Vera Badley and Mary
Walden. At this time Herb
answered questions regarding the
Foodgrain Bank. ,
