Young •fl• si. rel, t e� .s er
at Armistice lay service
By Doris Hunter
Bayfield observed Armistice Day on Nov.
13, with due solemnity.
The Clinton Legion Band with Legion-
naires to augment their routes, led the
villagers to the church service, held this
year at St. Andrews' United Church.
The choir of 12, gowned in their scarlet
and gold robes, led the hearty singing of the
congregation with Mrs. Molly Cox of-
ficiating at the organ.
Clergy from three denominations shared
in the dignified service, the Rev. Monsignor
Bourdeau, Father Gordon Reynolds and the
minister of St. Andrews', the Rev. Paul
Murray. Members of the laity also par-
ticipated, Mr. Frank Burch from St. An-
drews', Brigadier Morgan Smith of Trinity
Anglican, Mr. William Armstrong from
Knox Presbyterian, with Mrs. Blanche
Deeves representing St. James', Middleton
in her Legion uniform.
Two girls in their attractive Pathfinders'
dress acted as ushers Alison Dunn and Julie
Porter. They also took up the collection
which was to go to the Legion for its many
charitable projects.
Mr. Murray's sermon entitled the Final
Battle, presented a challenge for all people
to return to the ways of God, to be sure that
God be heard at the conference tables and a
protest against escalation of the arms race.
It was a courageous and thoughtful address
at this time when many people are confused
about world affairs.
The number of veterans present spoke of
their concern. They were World War II
soldiers, some resplendant with their
medals and all wearing the poppy a
reminder of Flander's Fields and the na-
tional symbol of the Canadian Legion.
The band escorted the parade to the
cenotaph, where Rev. Reynolds conducted
the traditional service for Remembrance
Day. Mr. Eric Earl led the singing of the Na-
tional Anthem and hymn, followed by the
prayer commemorating the Dead by the
Rev. Monsignor Bourdeau.
Veteran Ernest Hovey read the Holy
Scripture lesson, Mr. Reynolds offered a
prayer for peace after which wreaths were
placed for the Province of Ontario, by
Joseph Brandon; Village of Bayfield, Reeve
David Johnston Jr.; Royal Canadian
Legion, John Deeves; Bayfield Lions Club,
Joseph Mayman; Bayfield Lioness,
Margaret Gale; Baptist Church, Joseph
Chapman; Mr. James Armstrong presented
a wreath from Knox, Presbyterian Church
and Mr. John Semple and Mr. Ernest Hovey
placed wreaths for the United and Anglican
churches, respectively. Then the Brownies,
Guides, Pathfinders, Beavers, Cubs and
Scouts made their offering.
Brigadier Smith read memorial verses
before the Last Post the nfoment of silence
followed by the Lament, beautifully played
on the bagpipes.
These emotional moments were greatly
enhanced by the lowering of our fine new
Canadian flag on the excellent flag pole so
recently installed in its proper place by the
Cenotaph. We can not forget the quiet in-
tonation of the names of our dead from two
world wars by Brigadier Fred Clift.
The Legion Band under direction of Pipe
Major Glenn McGregor and Drum Major
John Wise added greatly to this beautifully
conducted service. Our men grown ac-
customed to civilian life marched very
smartly to the Parade Marshall Joseph
Mayman's commands and former P.O.W.
Eric Earl lowered that flag with proper
dignity, a most memorable day in Bayfield.
The Trio Caecilia, an internationally acclaimed musical group will perform in Bayfield
on Nov. 22. The concert is one of several being sponsored by the Bayfield Lioness Club.

Coast guard
crewman drowns
GODERICH - on Nov. 6 a crewman from
the Canadian Coast Guard drown less than
30 feet from the south pier after falling from
a 13 -foot rubber dinghy.
Police said Wayne Dall, 42, of Belleville
was out in the 13 -foot Avon on the afternoon
of Nov. 6 about 2 p.m. and appeared to fall
from the boat after making a turn near the
south breakwall. He tried to swim to the
south pier and was within approximately 30
feet of the pier where a group of onlookers
attempted to throw a lifeline to the victim.
Dall disappeared as a lifesaver was tossed
into the water.
Dall was a veteran crewman with the
Canadian Coast Guard and had been
stationed in Goderich for about nine years.
The Canadian Coast Guard Cutter CG126 is
stationed in Goderich Harbor throughout the
summer and early fall and was expected to
return east for the winter within the next
few weeks.
Our mistake
It was incorrectly reported in last week's
News -Record that the McLeods had applied
to Bayfield Council for a permit to build a
room for their son who suffers from Multiple
Sclerosis. In fact the son suffers from
Muscular Dystrophy.
The News -Record apologizes for this error
and any inconveniences It may have caused.
servatory, Paul Marcotte has studied at the
University of Indiana and at the Royal
College of Music in London where he earned
both an ARCM Performer's Diploma and a
certificate of Advanced Study. In 1978 he
was invited to perform with the Jeunesses
World Orchestra.
Pianist Michel Fournier boasts a Bac-
calaureat and Maitrise en Musique from the
Vincent d'Indy School of Music. Also a
graduate of the University of Indiana, Mr.
Fournier has performed as guest soloist
with several orchestras in the United States
and in Quebec.
Together these three young artists made
their debut in London and have made return
visits to England and Belgium. They will be
performing for local audiences at the
Bayfield Community Centre on Nov. 22 at 8
p.m.

Arthritis support rises
The members of the Bayfield Arthritis
Society are pleased to announce that
donations to the 1983 canvass have again
surpassed other years.
This year Bayfield area people gave
$1,117.36 to the cause. The canvass itself
raised $826, while the rural mail drop
brought in $95 and the collection bottles
raised $196.36.
The Bayfield group thank everyone who
helped to suuport this. For those who
received an envelope and may have mislaid,
there is still time to contribute. Every penny
helps in determining arthritis causes and
preventions as well as research and
education.
Of ' special interest to some is the
possibility of forming a Bluebird Club, the
symbol of hope for the Arthritis Society.
Mary Diemert has offered to provide a
meeting place for the club. Anyone in-
terested may call Mary Diemert or mem-
bers of the Bayfield Arthritis Society, Joyce
Chilton at 565-2165, Helen Harper at 565-2199
or Dawna Westlake at 565-2462.

Sunday School will be closed this Sunday,
Nov. 20 so members can take part in an in-
teresting activity, worship in the new White
Oak . _Murch in London, and a visit after
luneii to the old Metropolitan Church
downtown.
Deer hunting parties in this area had con-
siderable success. The Consitt gang got six,
the Stephensons three and the Chessell gang
five. Complaints have been heard from
some local farmers of gates being left open
and hunters trespassing. Whoever is respon-
sible makes it bad for those hunters who are
careful to get permission from the farmers
and who treat the privilege with care and
respect.
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Brown of Peter-
borough visited with his sister, Rev. Wilena
Brown from Monday to Wednesday of last
week. Fred is retired from a career as an
electrical engineer with Alcan.
