.8..of. Si
en ` ti►ton be devastating
By Robert O. Ball
Tea on the front porch after dinner is a
special time when the wether is right. It's
even better, when there are no interrup-
tions.
It was just such a moment when we both
heard it. It was nu. a regular or familiar
sound. It was short and quick, but had its
own distinctive note. Strange how just a mo-
ment of sound, in the midst of many sounds
that come to the ear, can register as being
out of the ordinary.
Somehow, as strange as it was, I caught
this one right away. It was the clink of a
crystal bud vase, falling over. And we both
knew exactly what happened. It was one of
two cats, and there was no doubt also, which
one it was. She eats roses. It's a part of her
uniqueness, but that's another story. The
rose was rescued and the water wiped up.
Sounds, like aromas, have a uniqueness
and an identity that are strangely their own.
By hearing, we can identify without seeing,
much that goes on around us.
But there is another sound that is haunting
in its own way. Simon and Garfunkel, the
musicians, made us keenly aware of its im-
pact in their music, The Sound of Silence.
And what at first seems a contradiction in
terms, turns out to be a reality that most of
us, at one time or another, have experienc-
ed.
MINISTER'S STUDY •
The obvious, of course, is the silence of a
loved one, whose voice and activities were
so regular within home and community
circles, and now are no longer heard. The
less obvious are the silences that are `heard'
when relationships between friends and
spouses come to a place, when there seems
to be nothing more than can be said.
The sound of silence then can be
devastating.
But there is another sound of silence that
comes from within. It is the experience of
the worshipper, that places oneself in the en-
vironment where, with a readiness, God
speaks a word of comfort, hope, and love,
that cannot be expressed in words by any
other. And with that knowledge, that in the
emptiness and the quiet, there is God, there
is also an awareness that even those voices
which are not `heard' anymore from those
whose presence blessed our every day liv-
ing, there remains a sense of their love and
influence, for which we can give thanks.
The knowledge of that presence in
absence, that sound in the silence, begins
with an appreciation of the eternal presence
of God, through worship, through hearing
the still small voice.
Jim Rose and his band
provide the entertainment
HURONVIEW-Jim Rose and his band of
musicians provided lively entertainment on
October 21.
Ceramic classes were held in the craft
room on October 22. Several ladies are kept
busy making novelty items for Christmas.
The October birthday party took place on
October 23, with the Gorrie Seniors in
charge of the entertainment. A medley of
songs was led by Alvin Mundell, Mel Dennis,
Harold Robinson. Velma Mann and Marion
Mundell played piano duets. Mouth organ
selections were played by Mel Dennis and
Alvin Mundell. Janet Hogg played a medley
of piano solos.
On October 24 Regiop 3 of the Ontario
Association of Homes for the Aged, met with
members of the other area regions at the
Fairview Home in Cambridge. This was the
first conference of the fall season. Those at-
tending from Huronview were Tim Collyer,
Jack Carter, Madelon Yeats, Corrine Van-
Miltenberg and Frank Bissett. The topic for
the Residents' Council discussion was on
Rights and Responsibilities of residents,
and proved to be a worthwhile and infor-
mative session.

py occasion. Piano music was provided by
