Davis speaks to Brussels seniors
Mrs. Irene Davis, President
of Zone 8, was guest speaker
at the Brussels senior
Citizen's Meetitlg on Wednes-
day, October 17. Her topic
was "The History of the
United Senior Citizens of On-
tario". Many members were
surprised to learn that due to
the efforts and dedication of
the U.S.C.O. the Senior
Citizens of Ontario are so well
looked after today. A
message was given from the
Secretary of the U.S.C.O. "We
have alot to share, now we
can add - we have a lot to pro-
tect." That is a good thought
for all senior Citizens.

New Nursery teacher
The Ifensall Nursery School
has a new teacher. She is Liz
Jay, recent bride of the rector
of Trinity Anglican Church in
Mitchell. Mrs Jay, whose
youthful appearance belies
her self -description of "mid-
dleaged", cites her ex-
perience to prove "someone
in their mid -years can return
to school. "
Mrs. Jay had taught for
three years in a rural school
before marrying and settling
down to raise a family. Once
her children were on their

Pat Harwood, the new
assistant manager at the Hen-
sall arena, figures she has
spent most of her life in
arenas. She began figure
skating at age three, and has
been teaching that graceful
skill for the past ten years.
The eight-month work
placement in Hensall is one of
Pat's final requirements
before receiving her diploma
in arena management from
Humber College next June.
Until April 31, Pat will be
gaining practical experience
in her chosen profession while
being instructed in ice
scheduling, arena booking,
flooding the ice and cleaning
dressing rooms and
washrooms by arena
manager Rollie Vanstone.
Pat admits she even does
floors and windows.
Though Pat's parents now

Pat is also coaching both
the Hensall and Zurich figure
skating clubs. She can teach

Pat hopes someday to find
a job combining the positions
of arena manager and recrea-
tion director in a small
community.
In the meantime, Ifensall's
new assistant arena manager
is looking forward to meeting
the people in the community,
and learning the behind -the -

tribute to a smoothly running
community centre.

If you buy a Lennox Pulse high efficiency furnace -- either
natural or propane gas -- from me, I'm not going to give you
a free electronic air cleaner, or a power humidifier, or a com-
puterized night set -back thermostat. I have to buy those things;
how can I give them away? The only free gift you'll get from
me is a $4.50 Lennox hat.
What I will give you is the assurance that y.'u have bought
the best and most efficient gas furnace available, that it has
been installed neatly and properly, that I care about you as
a customer, and that the price you have paid is just what is
necessary to cover the cost of equipment, materials, fair
wages, overhead, and a reasonable margin of profit. I'm still
old-fashioned enough to think that's the right way to do
business.
I'II just leave the silly little game to the silly little people.
