N3 retiring after glican minister. f• an being in of th` Trivitt 1 in xeter, St. $ the Lake charge 9. Mr. Anderson came to Canada from Northern Ireland in 1953. He had con- sidered Australia but felt it was too far away. A wireless operator with the Royal Airforce during W W H. he found when the war was over. the economy in Northern Ireland was going nowhere. Mr. Anderson said he ordered a car in 1946. He got a call in 1953 that there was a car he could have. It wasn't the one he had ordered. but he could have it. During the war, he flew in a seven man crew in a Lan- caster Bomber. Some of the places they bombed were Berlin. Milan and Genoa. It was an exciting time he said, because they always came home with punctures. He was responsible for staying in touch with the base and providing navigational bearings. as well as jam- ming the German com- munications. Before the war. he had worked for Hurst and Sons Ltd. in the seed and grain business. It was this opera- tion that he took up when he came to Canada. finding a job with Reed Beans and Seeds of Chatham. His training for becoming a minister consisted of two years of correspondence courses with Huron College. If you could stick that, he said. you would be okay. Mr. Anderson came to Ex- eter in January of '69 and recalled several stories which many people might remember. He explained to this • •t reporter about the time his dog Angus wrote a letter to the T -A complaining about the judging of a dog show which was being held on a nday at 11:00 a.m. 'Ale felt this wgs a discreet way of getting the message out. "I could have stood there and condemned it." he said. "but this way people got a kick out of it." With a twinkle in his eye, he says they still have the dog show but it isn't judged at 11:00 any more. Another time. he says the Anglicatip and United churches wer considering joining up.. Th4.two Exeter churches began sharing ser- vices. demonstrating church union. Married in 1944, his first wife died in 1980 and he has since remarried Mrs. Thelma Anderson. He has a daughter. Joan Greenlee, Saintsbury, and a son Kenneth who is the rector at Trinity Church in Lambton. Since corning to Exeter, Mr. Anderson said he has always had a good relationship with all the ministers in the town. He said there is a great deal of understanding and the differences aren't as impor- tant as the principal truths. They have always been able to work together. he said. One example of this is the Easter service. At one time, he said. each minister took part in the service and it was always held in the Anglican church. Now. each church takes the service in a specific way and the service is held in the Anglican Church every year. It is always packed he says. The official date of his retirement is September 30. He will be living with his wife in Grand Cove. He has always been in- terested in British Cathedrals and hopes to do a series of slide presentations and a taped talk on them. He will be travelling a great ex- tent or as long as the money hold out. he said. As for his free time. "I haven't found any vet" he says. Men not injured in accident OPP report Pinery OPP laid 89 charges under the Liquor License 4ct while in- vestigatingkr6 miscellaneous occurrences. There were 20 charges under the Provincial Parks Act and nine charges under the. Highway Traffic Act. The OPP also in- vestigated four break and enters and five thefts. Two men escaped injury last week when their cars collided on Highway 21 north of Lambton Road 5. The car driven by Fred Murrish of Port Huron, Michigan, received $300 in damage while that of Joel Robson of London township sustained $500. Good yearat Pinery thanks to weatherman Excellent weather and advertising by the Provin- cial government have combined to make this an ideal summer for Pinery Park. Jim Bass, supertintendent of the Park said the August 30 weekend was the only one since June that hadn't been filled to capacity. The park, located south of Grand Bend, has 1,000 sites, 250 of which may be reser- ved. Pinery "beefed up" its customer service this year. New reporter for Bend With the departure of Mary Alderson • Suzanne Ambrose will be covering the Grand Bend area. She has lived in the Oshawa area for all of her 21 years. This past June she graduated from journalism at Durham College in Oshawa. Mrs Alderson left the paper to work for Agriculture information ser- vices. Miss Ambrose enjoys hockey. waterskiing. and anything to do with horses. Shr was a Sunday school tea( her at the United Church for three nears. Shr has one sister. two hrorhers a horse named f:yrlr ' 11rI t and is hoping to arrtuire ;in Irish setter in the nr.ar hit tire 1 says Bass and that helped too. The Park has 13 per- manent staff and 65: part- time staff including students. This number does not include lifeguards, he said, because it would take a lot of people to patrol- the six miles of beach. When the lifeguard was there, he said, it was more of a baby-sitting service. There were no drownings at the park this year. Vandalism has not been extensive, he said, adding that the number of incidents is down from other years. Bass is satisfied with the season to date. Warm weather usually means trouble. and there hasn't been any. The largest group of people that dee the Park, he said, are families. The park will be open for campers to the October 31 weekend. Autumn walks will be a program oftered by the park. After the Labour Day weekend, he said the Park witl be used by senior citizens on bus tours and by schools as an educational aid. Construction is scheduled to begin on showers for the campers on September 8, if the funds are available. Bass also hopes to have the camp open for winter cam- ping, in the future, but he could not say when this would be.
