Playing catch-up after quiet week Things seem to be unusally quiet in the Varna area late- ly. or I haven't heard about happenings until they are no longer news. One small item Varna. by Mary CkasrrlU doesn't make a column, either. So this is catch-up week. Nora Heard has purchased Vi Bell's house in Bayfield and will be moving in mid- December. We'll hope to see her back in Varna frequent- ly. Mervyn and Margaret Hayter have a beautiful, dark-haired baby grand- daughter.

The annual U.C.W. Christ- mas party is this Thursday, featuring a pot -luck supper and special programme. White Gift Sunday will be observed this week with money gifts for the South Huron Association for the Mentally Retarded. Wiebe and Jenny, Postma held a very enjoyable dinner party on Saturday evening to celebrate their twenty-fifth wedding anniversary. They held it in the township hall in Varna. Over seventy friends and relatives were present from Sarnia. Chatham, Blenheim, Ridgetown. St. Thomas and this area. They have raised five children, four girls and a boy.

This would lead Nic to change the name of his treaties from "The Queen". since Marlborough's habit of a carrying around a sissy set of gloves actually hid a half dozen Engligh crowns, black -jack style.
