Huronia cattle
Top winners
Jack and Fred
Armstrong, Blyth run
Huronia farm in partnership
at RR2, Auburn and have
aherd of Jersey cattle. Those.
cattle have won prizes at
shows over the last few years
and this year they did
extremely well at the Western
Fair in London.
In fact, the Armstrong's
cow Elmline L. Merit's Lettie
was the grand champion cow
in the Jersey class at that
fair. It captured first in the
mature cow class and first in
the udder class.
Some of their other cattle
also won prizes at the fair,
Their dry cow was first in
that class, their Junior
yearling was first in its class
and their calf was fourth in
the junior and senior calf
class. Their senior yearling
was seventh in its class and
they alsohad a two year old
that placed fifth, a three year
old that placed third and a
four year old that placed
fourth 'in their respective
classes.
The Armstrong cattle also
placed fourth in the
Breeder's Herd Class which
is where the farmer has a
group of four animals that he
raised on his own farm,
Not only did they do well at
the Western Fair but the
Armstrongs also got seven
firsts at the Seaforth Fall Fair
with pretty well the same
group of animals. At that fair
Mr, and Mrs. Fred
Armstrong's daughter
Donna Lynn's calf placed
first in the Junior Calf Class
and their daughter Lori's calf
placed second in that same
class. In the Senior Calf class
Donna Lynn's calf placed
second while Lori's placed
fourth. The Armstrong's
cattle also placed first in the
bull class, first in the Junior
yearling class, third in the
Senior Yearling Class and
they also had the Reserve
Junior Champion in the
Junior Yearling Class,
In the two year old class
they won second and third
prizes and placed first in the
Three, Four, and Five Year
and Over classes. And they
won a first and fourth prize in
the Dry Cow class.
They also won the Grand
Champion award at the
Seaforth Fair with the same
cow that won at the Western
. Fair and they had the
Reserve Grand Champion
Spruce Avenue Jesters
Carmel,
They had second in the
Breeder's Herd and first in
the Best Udder Class and
they got the Premier
Exhibitor's award for
obtaining the most points at
Seaforth.
This makes the second
year the Armstrongs have
shown at the Western Fair.
Before that they were
showing at the fairs in
Clinton and Seaforth and
they decided they might take
in a few more fairs after that.
Fred Armstrong said he
might enter two or three
cows in the Royal Winter
Fair. He got a second prize
with a two year old at last
year's Royal.
The Western Fair winner
had been the grand
champion at four shows so

Hullett
New clerk
Hullett council hired
a new clerk treasurer at a
special meeting Tuesday
evening.
Harry Lear was hired after
interviews were held with
four other applicants. Mr.
Lear is a long time resident
of Londesboro. He was born
and raised on the 13th of
Hullett. Mr, Lear worked 14
years for Howsons in Blyth
and four years at Radfoids
Costruction as bookkeeper.
Mr. Lear is looking
forward to learning all the ins
and outs of municipal
Blyth subdivision plan
government. He will be
taking a municipal
administration course
shortly.
Simon McVittie, Mr.
Lear's grandfather) was the
township tax collector back in
1938.
His duties commenced
October lst. Sixteen
applications were received
five were singled out for
interviews.
John Radford bought the
township building at an
auction recently. 1t. was
auctioned for $21,500.
Deletes section
Blyth council dropped a requirement
from their subdivision bylaw Monday night
in an effort to cut red tape for the planned
subdivision north of Blyth.
The clause deleted wi old have required
the developer to submit a detailed plan of
individual mobile home lots showing the
location, size, and type of foundation,
parking space, patio, storage buildings,
fences and landscaping.
Council felt this was a lot of unnecessary
work at this time and reminded county
planner Roman Dzus that this information is
required before a building permit is given
for each lot.
Mr. Dzus wanted to leave the clause in to
let council have some indication of the
advancement and better development of
these mobile homes.
"1 really feel that this (clause) is
worthwhile considering" said Mr. Dzus.
Councillor Bill Howson didn't feel the
extra work was necessary at this time.
Council wanted a flexible agreement.
The subdivision plan is now on the agenda
for the Huron County planning department
and for county council for final approval.'
The Gravco subdivision will hopefully be
under development in the spring of 1980.
In other business council turned down a
request for funding from the tornado relief
group in the Woodstock area. Council fell
that the taxpayers were being picked on t'
fund the rebuilding of that area and that tht'
matter should be taken up by the provincial
or federal government to allow for a broader
section of the public dollar to help with the
financing.
Councillor Helen Gowing ,who represents
Blyth on the Wingham Citizen's Action
committee,attended a meeting recently and
reported back to council. It appears that the
Wingham community needs $50,000 to fight
' the local hospitals bed closure order in the
, courts. To raise the funds they have drawn
Harry Lear
up a chart indicating how many patients
were admitted over the past year from each
area. This is taken as a part of a percentage
of the total patients admitted and then
applied to the funding required.
Blyth had 86 residents admitted over a one
year period. That figures out to 3 percent of
the total patients admitted at the Wingham
hospital. 3 percent of the $50,00(i is $1,500.
This would be Blyth's share in helping the
fight to keep necessary bels open.
Council decided to wait and get some
indicaion as to how other communities are
going to handle this request for funding.
Wingham provides the bulk of the patients
a'id would pay $12,665. In comparison,
Brussels would pay $2,665.
';he Blyth and East Wawanosh
representat''r ves on the Wingham Hospital
Boar.l is Mrs. Robert Arbuckle, council
learned this week.
The Bates at the Blyth Sanitation site are
being reoaired with funds from the Ministry
of the Environment., Blyth was allocated
$1,500 for Improvements and will use some
of that funding to dig new sites on the lot.
There is oue property up for tax sale this
year in Blyth, Lots 11, 12 and 13. The taxes
are payable up until the day of the sale by
the owner to take the property off the list.
Hall funding
coming in
• Funding for the addition to the Blyth
Memorial Hall is starting to come in. Council
received word Monday night from the
Ministry of Culture and Recreation that a
community centre. grant of 536,677.50 is
available on condition that the plans
submitted be followed.
Wintario awarded a $53,640 grant for the
renovations. The Blyth Centre for the Arts
hopes to have construction underway this
fall.
Drain work plugged
T he final approval needed to allow
council to go ahead with a drain construction
will be 'a long1time coming. The proposed
drain for Dinsley and Drummond that would
end at the river has been approved by the
Ministry of Transportation and
Communications and the Maitland Valley
Conservation Authority.
The only drawback has been with CP Rail
which sent back the plans with the
requirement that they all be redone in metric
measurements,
With this drawback council has decided to
go ahead and have some streets repaired.
An estimate from Lavis Contractors to pave
five blocks of Morris Street and the parking
lot would cost: $13,347 if done separately.
Council would qualify for a $500 discount if
both jobs were done at once this week.
Council agreed to look into the quality of the
paving. At press time work had not started.

Winemaking the refined way
BY RHEA HAMILTON
This past week of weather
made harvesting a real treat
this year, Ye spent a few
hourson the weekend pick-
ing grapes at my inlaws'
place north of Auburn, The
sun beat down on our backs
amid the vines while we
snipped the thick juicy clust-
ers from the branches,
It was not hard to picture
ourselves on a slope in
Germany or France picking
wine grapes for that is exact-
ly what these beauties were
headed for, Although these
grapes are meant for press-
ing they were sweet and juicy
and a delight to the taste
buds. After the picking was
done we all had purple
mouths and full tummies,
The grapes were quickly
washed off and pressed in
the apple press. The juice
ran quick and red into the
containers ready and and
waiting. Kept handy on a
shelf next to the press are
several glasses which came
in handy for sampling the
juice. It was warm from the
sun and sweet as honey. It is
going to make a rich wine for
next year.

NEW FALL
FASHIONS
The job was finished just
before the late afternoon air
began to cool and the week-
end closed off,
Fall always is enjoyed so
much more when we can get
out and help harvest some of
the multitude of fine pro-
ducts Huron County is known
for. If the grapes continue to
do well then they too may
become one of Huron's num-
ber one products.

Have you ever come across
an old painting or book and
wondered at its value? The
London Art Gallery offered
the public the chance to find
out more and from profes-
sionals. At a one -day event
the gallery opened its doors
and for five dollars you could
Lind out the age and origin of
your item and its value.
I have had some tapestries
carefully tucked away and
often wondered how old they
were and what they would be
worth, After finally finding
the gallery on Saturday and
getting a ticket to indicate
what line I should be in, I
settled down to a long wait.
But I was surprised. Not
many people had tapestries
or rugs and there was only
one lady in front of me. The
gentleman in charge unrolled
her mat which was about two
feet by four feet. It was a
handsome oriental rug with a
black background and red-
dish flowers woven through-
out and in smaller format
along the edge. He seemed
quite impressed and indi-
cated the area in Persia the
rug had been hand woven,
He carefully walked the
length of it and then flipped
the corners and commented
on the workmanship. Value
estimated at $2,500. Well of
course when I heard that my
ears picked up and 1 started
to count my eggs before I
even had the hen;
Well my tapestries were
not worth thousands but they
are worth framing. They
were made in the late 19th
century by machine in
France and were used as wall
covering. That would explain
the material stitched on the
back that appears torn
around the edges. I have
three and each one repre-
sents a different month. I
was told if I had the whole set
of 12 they would be worth
quite a bit but only three
means they arc worth only
something to someone who
has the room to display then.
well.
The trip was worth it. At
least now I know that those
bundles that have been tak-
ing up so much room are
really something unusual
and worth all the effort of
protecting them from reno-
vating dangers. Now wheth-
er they will get framed
before the next five years fl3
is another question.

Requests for funding
Municipal councils are always receiving requests for funding for
worthwhile groups or victims or disasters. With costs ever rising it is
getting harder for councils to try and offer any finncial assistance.
The taxpayer's dollar does not go very far with new roads or repairs
of old roads, betterstreet lighting or larger sanitation sites all needing
attention.
Blyth council has in the past turned down many requests for funds
on the premise that once you start giving you can't stop. But with the
request from the Tornado Relief Fund for the Woodstock area the
council took some time considering the matter.
The victims live very close to our community in comparison to many
who request funds and because of that fact council hesitated in turning
down their request.
But the precedent was set by county council who turned down the
request flatly saying that the Huron tax dollars should be used in
Huron County.
It was suggested by one throughtful Blyth councillor that if the
provincial or federal government would take more responsibility
financially then tax dollars from a broader base of the population could
be used. That way local residents may give time and money on their
own and not be pressured to give again through their minicipal dollars.
The plight of the areas is one we are all sensitive to. We can give in
our own way but with rising inflation and our own dollars not going as
far, lust how much can we give?
F vever in situation :, like this time given freely to help rebuild
woulu be just as greatly appreciated as funding. Perhaps that's an
answer.
The crying towel
Perhaps we should all shed a tear for Bryce Mackasey. The poor man
has just been turfed out of his $90,000 -a -year job as chairman of Air
Canada. And that's not all. Along with the post went a
chauffeur -driven Lincoln Continental and free air transportation for
him and his family anywhere in the world reached by Canada's
national air service.
Oh, the injustice of it all will be appreciated by those of us in Bruce
who have never been so unfortunate as to be placed in such an
unhappy position. After all, the kind of appointment visited upon
Mackasey just doesn't come our way. For that we can be thankful since
there is no fear of instant dismissal.
While wiping our tearful eyes, the drying process might be speeded
up when some consideration is given to the impressive credentials of
Mackasey to occupy the lofty position bestowed upon him just eight
months ago. Let's see now. Oh, yes. He had been travelling as an air
passenger for at least 17 years, as a non -payer courtesy the free passes
handed out to members of parliament. And then.. .
That's stange. A thorough analysis of his background fails to
pinpoint any other airline experience unless the turbulence of his
political career should be considered. After all, he was in and out of the
federal cabinet, and in and out of the Quebec National Assembly and
then got thrown out on his political ear when he attempted to get back
into parliament.
In all charity, the plain truth of the matter is that Mackasey
obviously had the one important talent, if it can be called that, for
occupying the lofty post at Air Canada. He qualified as a person who
was willing to serve for seven years as a figurehead chairman of a
public corporation with little to do except to preside at the occasional
directors' meetings.
Perhaps the real reason he made the top government post is the
explanation given by Mackasey for his firing - - because he is and was a
liberal. As a matter of; fact, it was, to quote one authority, the most
blatant use of patronage made by the Trudeau government. Although
Mackasey may currently be out of a job, he has his accumulated
pension as a member to support him until that day in the future when
he sees himself as head of the liberal party - - he hopes. So, we can
retire the crying towel - - at least until after the next liberal leadership
convention.

Behind the Scenes
by Keith Roulston
They came together in a strange way as a
reminder of the strange universal way
people act. One was a letter to the editor in
a Toronto newspaper and the other was a
lengthy article by Adrienne Clarkson on
rediscovering her roots in ancient China,
The letter was from a British immigrant
to Canada who suggested that immigrants
should love their new land or leave it, He
criticized people from Britain or Jamaica or
India or Pakistan or any other country who
came here for freedom and then spent their
time crying about all that was wrong with
their new land and making unfavourable
comparisons to their homeland.
He's right of course. It's incongruous for
people to escape the poverty and perse-
cution of other lands to come to the wealth
and freedom of Canada, then sit around
and dream about their native land. Yet it's
not something new. Native Canadians may
be upset by the complaints about the
imperfections of Canada from newcomers
but they should remember that they are
descended from people who had the same
complaints.
Take my own ancestors as an example.
Although I'm pretty typical Canadian, a
real mixed bag of nationalities, the main
stalk of my family tree was from Scotland.
The Scots came to Canada after they had
been pushed off their land by their
landlords. Others came to escape the
poverty brought about by the industrial
revolution. One would think that the new
land that offered them the chance to escape
the dead ends they faced in the old would
make them turn their back on the past. But
what did they do? Well they organized
societies to keep the old language and
culture alive in the new land. In my old
hometown they had Highland games that
drew thousands upon thousands of ex -
patriot Scots from across the province.
Even more strange was the fact that they
were so willing to clasp to themselves the
very symbols of the oppression that had
driven them across the sea. We hear so
much about Scots nationalism today, about
how the Scots have been put upon by the
English yet the Scots settlers have been
among the strongest supporters of the
monarchy in Canada. Sir John A. Mac-
Donald said proudly "A British subject 1
was born and a British subject 1 will die:"
And he was the founder of the new land.
But the Scots, the Irish driven here by
the potato famines, the English from the
slums of London and Liverpool were able to
conveniently forget the misery of their
homeland once they got a little prosperous
over here. They sought to transplant as
much of the lifestyle of their homeland as
possible. They romanticized "home,"
Only in the second and third generations
did people begin to put the proper
perspective on things and yet even a
century later the ties some have to the
homeland are still made of steel as witness
the Monarchist League or the Orange
Order.
In her story as part of a whole issue of
Weekend magazine about the 30th anni-
versary of the Chinese Revolution, Adri-
enne Clarkson shows that much the same
feelings were present in the Chinese who
came to Canada. By the standards of most
other immigrants the Chinese did not find
Canada a land of plenty. They were
allowed only the most menial of jobs in
laundrys or restaurants or building rail-
ways. They were persecuted by many
self-righteous whites. But the tie to their
homeland was strong. They scraped to-
gether their money and sent it home to
their villages in China. Ms. Clarkson
visited villages that were built with the
donations of overseas Chinese, many from
Canada, Those Chinese in Canada could
have used the money to make their own
lives easier but they cared about "home."
Unlike the Scots or Irish many even went
back to China to die.
Our friend the letter writer suggested
that the new immigrants should love
Canada or leave it but not try to change it.
But what the East Indians and West
Indians and the Italians and even the newly
arrived Britishers are saying is just part of
the way people are. I remember a
childhood ' friend who moved to our
neighbourhood from Komoka who used to
anger the rest of us because he made it
seem like the only interesting things that
had ever happened in the world had
happened in Komoka.
What we need more of inthis country
today is wisdom: the wisdom to know that
some things can't be changed, that some
things are part of human beings. We need
to look more at our history and learn
lessons it has to teach us. If we know that
people coming to a new land, even a new
town will always romanticize the place they
came from then we can live much easier
with the . knowledge. Instead of getting
angry, tense and retaliatory we can smile
the wise smile of knowledge that this will
pass. We cart know that someday the sons
and daughters of these new arrivals will
feel the same anger toward the gripes of
another generation of newcomers,
THE BLYTH STANDARD, OCTOBER 3, 1979 — 5
Morris turns down hospital request
BY DEBBIE RANNEY
Isabel Garniss, Morris Township's
representative on the Wingham and District
Hospital board met with members of council
to discuss letters of appeal council had
received from the Citizens Action committee
and the hospital's board of Governors on a
proposed court action to save hospital beds,
The letter from the Citizen's Action
Committee described the methods the
committee had tried in order to save beds at
the hospital., and said on the advice of a
lawyer they were going to try and fight in
court but would need to raise at least $50,000
to fight the case,
The letter stated that they thought the
most equitable way to raise this money
would be to approach the local governments
using a formula based on an area's
in-patient distribution during a 12 month
period -from April 1, 1978 until March 31,
1979, Morris Township had 256 admissions
to the Wingham Hospital or a percentage of
8,15 to the total admissions adjusted to S.92
per cent and Morris Township's allocated
cost would be $4,460.
Although the letter said the committee
realized that money might not be available in
the 1979 budget, any money allocated in the
1980 budget would be appreciated for this
cause. A letter from the hospitals Board
of Governors endorsed the appeal of the
Citizien's Action Committee.
Mrs. Garniss told council that the board
had voted on court action and that eight were
in favor, six were against, one abstained and
the chairman didn't vote. She said that 14
beds in the pediatric unit had been closed as
of Monday.
When asked Reeve Bill Elston whether the
hospital was fairly busy, Mrs. Garniss
replied that they had been running on about
an 80 per cent average capacity up until the
end of August. She said there had never
been a case of turning anybody away and
that they hoped they wouldn't have to,
She said 12 people had been laid off at the
hospital. Layoff criteria were merit and
whether there were two breadwinners in the
family or not. If it came to a choice the ones
who had the most seniority were kept on.
Council then went into
committee -of -the -whole to discuss the
hospital situation and following that made a
motion that they did not support the action
committee and did not endorse their appeal.
Members of East Wawanosh council
attended Monday's meeting to discuss the
agreement on the Belgrave Community
Centre.
After some discussion it was decided to
make a few changes in the agreement. A
grant of $250 will be given by each of the
councils and any further financial
committment would have to be referred to
both councils before any further action could
be taken by the board.
They also decided to change a statement
that said the agreement could only be
dissolved by having both councils sign
agreeing to do this. Council decided,to make
the agreement more open.to say instead that
the agreement would be in effect for two
years to be reviewed in December of 1981.
In other business, engineer Andy McBride
from Maitland Engineering Services in
Wingham read the report on the Coultes
drain and said a complete reconstruction of a
tile portion of the Coultes drain and the
construction of a new branch drain were
proposed. The cost estimate was $42,500.
Council made a motion to provisionally adopt

Telephone improvements
The people aroun the Londesboro area
were probably glad to see a Bell Canada
crew on Tuesday as the construction of a new
telephone cable began in an effort to
improve 6 .ce in that arca.
Kay Dick . assistant manager for the Bell
Canada office in Stratford, said that she
thought the basic problem had been that the
original cable was very old and needed
replacement very badly. It was creating a lot
of service problems, She said they were just
advancing part of the work on the new
telephone exchange which is to be put in
The fire chief says

next year because of the poor condition of
the cable,
Bell Canada in Stratford received word
from its construction department that they
would start plowing on Tuesday and that it
would take two days to plow the cable in.
That's only part of the job, After the new
cable is put in the ground it will have to be
connected to the existing cable. This will just
be the first stage of improvement as several
other jobs have to be completed before
service to the Londesboro area will improve
but Bell hopes to have the work completed ,in
the near future.
the report on the Coultes drain. Court of
Revision is to be held on October 22.
Council also opened snow plowing tenders
and decided to accept those of James Adams
for the truck at $16.75 per hour and $12 per
hour stand-by time and that of George
Radford for a grader at $24.50 for the actual
work and $12 per hour standby. Other
submissionswere Keith Nicholson at $23 per
hour and $20 standby and Glen McKercher
at $20 per hour and $12 standby.
Council received word from Blyth about
the village's secondary plan, stating that
council was looking at the possibility of a
minor annexat ion of the industrial park and
that as soon as the plan had Ministry of
,Housing approval the village council would
like a joint meeting with the Morris
Township council. Council also received .a
copy of the proposed Turnberry Township
Secondary Plan. They were advised that the
plan is entering the second phase which
involves reactions to specific proposals and
that later a meeting would be held with
Turnberry and neighbouring councils to
discuss this plan.

The minister's study -Thanksgiving
BY REV. ROBERT SCOTT
It is likely that no people
have a greater appreciation
of the true meaning of
"thanks giving" than those
who make their living from
the land. Each new crop,
each re-enactment of the
miracle of creation as live-
stock give birth to healthy
offspring, is cause for rejoic-
ing. And indeed we must all
come to a greater appreci-
ation of the amount of work

At this Thanksgiving seas-
on we remember the .Cre-
ation of the world in which
we live and we give thanks to
our Father in Heaven for
what is past, for the harvest
that is here and for harvests
yet to come, But what about
that hard work that had to
be put in to get another
harvest? On the outside, it
doesn't really look as if God
did all that much or deserves
a special time of thanks-
giving.
But, you see, we are all in
partnership with God, This is
true, whatever our life's
vocation may be. Whether
we are farmer or doctor,
mechanic or office worker,
we are God's instruments.
We share, with Him, respon-
sibility for this great world in
which we live, Yes, it's hard
work and the crops wouldn't
grow if the fields were left to
God alone. But that is all part
of the plan. You have a very
special purpose in God's

kids visit
orchard
Students from Hullett
Central School in Londesboro
formed the largest group of
school students that the
Mait-Side Orchard i
Brussels has had for tour
yet this year when they,
visited the orchard last
Thursday.
A group of 72 children
from Kindergar ten , Grades
1 and 2 looked at some trees
that were 70 years old and
heard Mrs. Bev Cardiff
describe, the different types
of apples in the orchard.
She told the children there
were about 3,500 trees in the
orchard and that they have
16 regular pickers.
By the end of this week
around 600 children will have
been to see the orchard.

Ministers

(Continued from Page 11)
God to provide the means
whereby our infirmities
respond to the treatment?
Our work is of little benefit if
we do not recognize that God
plays a part in all we do; if we
do not recognize that our
purpose in life cannot be
found apart from God.
We may wonder why we
give thanks to God at all. The
world seems to go along so
smoothly. We take a lot for
granted. Our Father in
Heaven doesn't impose Him-
self on us. He stays out of the
way and gently redirects us
when we head off in the
wrong direction. If you are
careful, though, you can
recognize His work.
Look all around you and
experience the mighty mir-
acles of God. Breathe the air.
Look at the colours of fall.
Taste the fruits of God's
good earth. Sit down and talk
to your family and friends.
Then kneel down and talk to
your God and thank Him for
all these things and so much
more. Be thankful that God
has rewarded your hard work
with all the blessings of this
life. Thank God every day of
the year that you have been
given the opportunity to
share in the work that has to
be done to make the world a
good place to be. "We are
labourers together with
God " — I Corinthians 3:9

Blyth United
Fall activities
Blyth United Church's
busy round of fall activities
resumed in September, with
meetings for Sunday School
teachers, Christian Edu-
cation committee, Stewards,
1 ldcrs and Official Board, as
well as U.C.W. and Youth
groups.
Attendance at Sunday
School is encouraging, but
there's always room for
more, Some of last season's
Intermediate Choir members
have been welcomed to the
Senior Choir, which has
resumed practices on Friday
evenings. Children in grades
2.5 are invited to come to
Junior choir practice starting
this Sat. a.m. at 10:30, with
boys and girls of Grades 6 to
8 having their practice
immediately before at 10
each Sat. morning.
The Prayer and Bible
Study groups continue to
meet Tues. mornings and
Wed. evenings. All are wel-
come.
The Sr. Choir has been
leading in music throughout
September services, with the
Craigs. Bodic, Kini and Paul
contributing a trio number
one week. On Sept. 30,
Cheryl Cronin took a solo
part in the anthem "Guide
Me 0 Thou Great Jehovah".
Twice a month the Sunday
morning worship commences
with a hymn sing, led by
Mrs. Wittich. This fall, a new
hymn is being learned each
month.
The sanctuary has been
adorned with beautiful flow-
ers each Sunday in Septem-
ber, placed by the several
families whose loved ones
have been laid to rest recent-
ly, following the funerals.
Mr. Wittich's sermon topic
onf Sept. 23 was prompted
by the world-wide money
crisis. He outlined how it is
that the worship of, and
greed for, money has been
the "root of all evil" down
through the ages. No one .is
satisfied without "a little bit
more,"
On Sept. 30, Rev. Wittich
entitled his sermon "God
Cares" taking his text from
Ephesians 5:17. People
question how and why God
can let terrible things happen
in this world. God intended
an ideal life for everyone, but
He also has given us free-
doms - thus there are errors,
.disease and sufferings of
many descriptions. We have
to try to understand the will
of God: 1. His intentional will
2. His permissive or circum-
stantial will which allows evil
and its consequences 3. His
ultimate will, where tragedy
can lead to triumph, i.e, the
crucifixion. In His will is our
peace and fulfillment.

WEEK OF OCTOBER 4, 1979
OLDFIELD'S PRO -HARDWARE STAFF — The staff of Oldfield's
Pro -Hardware are looking forward to the weekend's expansion
celebrations. They are from left, first (seated), Nora Stephenson, Jean
Oldfield, Darlene Oldfield. Back, Jack McWhirter, John Mann, Jim

Oldfields has been 33 years
on Brussels main street
On Thursday, October 4,
Friday, October 5 and Satur-
day, October 6, Oldfields Pro
Hardware store in Brussels
will be celebrating 33 years
in business on Brussels' main
street and will have a grand
opening in honor of its
newest addition --the former
J & K Shoes and Jeans store.
Max Oldfield first came to
Brussels in 1946 and started
a hardware store where
Mayer's Jewelery is now
located.
In 1948, Max bought the
first section of his present
store from William Gillespie
who had been operating a
hardware store there since at
least the turn of the century.
Max said when he first
started his hardware bust-
ness in Brussels he had all of
three months' hardware
experience which he got at a
store in Dundalk. He worked
at that store just with the
idea of getting some experi-
ence until he could get a
store of his own.
He says he chose the
hardware business because
he had worked in the airforce
as a wireless mechanic,
repairing transmitters and
radios and he had always
been interested in mechanics
so one thing more or less led
to another.
"I think you do need a
mechanical inclination to
operate a hardware store,"
Max says.
In 1955, the front of the
Gillespie store was renovated
READY TO HELP — Max Oldfield, right, has
been joined in his Pro Hardware business by his
son Jim. Max's wife Jean and Jim's wife
Darleen are also on staff.
and a complete new front
was installed. When Old -
fields started in this store the
next door store was a grocery
owned by Lorne Eickmeier.
This store was later taken
over by C & G Krauter
Plumbing.
In 1964 the hardware line
was expanded to include
things like television and
radios and so the next door
store was purchased from C
& G Krautcr Plumbing. It
was some time in 1964 or
1965 that the store became
part of the Pro Hardware
group. When they started off
with the Gillespie store, Max
said that there was enough
room but eventually so many
things were getting piled up
on the shelves and in the
back rooms that they
couldn't keep track of all the
merchandise and decided to
expand.
The Oldfields ran into that
problem again this year and
decided on further expansion/
purchasing the building
which housed J & K Shoes
and Jeans from Ken Webster
in April of this year. At one
time the store had been the
Brussels Legion.
When he first got into the
hardware business, Max said
he probably started off with
not more than $5000 of stock
in trade, consisting mostly of
nails and nuts and bolts and
the basics of hardware, along
with one refrigerator and a
washing machine. At that
time the store was also
equipped with a pot-bellied
stove and some customers
said they would quit coming
to the store if it was ever
taken out, because people
liked to sit around the stove
and talk. It made the store

ing of their newly enlarged
store Oldfields Pro Hardware

strations of interest. The

BUSINESS SECTION — '5B
Oldfields - 33 years on Brussels' main street
(Continued from Page 1)
since those days or as Max
says, "We have to do more
business now in any given
day than we figured on doing
in a month at that time,"
SEVEN TIMES AS BIG
When the store was first
started it had a selling area
of not more than 1000 square
feet and today that has
expanded to around 7000
square feet.
And there's been a great
turnover in travelling sales-
men. The only one still
calling at Oldfields who
called when they first opened
their doors is Jim Vallance of
London.
Today the business has
expanded to include things
like toys, games, more appli-
ances and where he used to
have a stock of machine bolts
and carriage bolts, today,
Max says, he would have to
have fine thread, coarse
thread and different grades
of bolts. This line of expan-
sion is because of the larger
and more intricate farming
machinery people are using
today.
PLUMBING ENLARGED
The plumbing section has
also been greatly enlarged
from what it used to be.
Oldfields used to carry only
galvanized pipe but today
they carry that as well as
copper and three different
types of plastic pipe, ranging

now Max says there's a great
advantage in belonging to a
group like Pro Hardware
where 90 per cent of the
goods are bought through a
buying group. As Oldfields
belongs to the Pro chain,
they use.the same price tags
as the city stores do, so are
quite competitive with them,
And now all the ordering is
done by computer. Orders
are all punched into a mini-
computer which is then
attached to the telephone.
"An order that used to

minutes on long distance
telephone is in there in about
20 second, Accounts receiv-

way. This takes a lot of the
personal aspect away from
the business which is one
thing we can regret about it,

business has
seen changes
Big changes have occured
in the retail hardware
business over the years,
Leisure and entertainment
products are big items now,
such as garden and lawn
equipment, electrical
appliances and barbecues.
Paints are continually
being changed. All are
available lead free now.
Acrylic and latex are the
most common bases for
paints instead of oils but
changes could come here
again because acryclic bases
are made from oils and the
price of oil is increasing so
rapidly and the availability so
uncertain that new products
may be developed to take
their place.
Non-stick finishes are the
big thing in houseware and
now even stainless steel
comes in decorator colors,
To keep track of inventory
and to order new supplies
Oldield Pro Hardware uses
tape operated devices that
record the necessary
information and play it back
directly into a computer
located in London over
common telephone wires. An
order placed this way on
Monday is ready for pickup
on Tuesday afternoon.

Listening Tests
The best positions for the 1203s was
found to be on tables about 15 inches high
and placed against the rear walls but
not angled inwards. A number of suitable
stands are now available from several
manufacturers. After some experimenting,
the midrange control was left turned back
an inch or so; a lot depends on the room
acoustics, and you may find the best
balance is achieved with the control in its
maximum position.
The stereo image was excellent with
good location and a pleasing
spaciousness. Overall sound quality was

which was not over -emphasized (unless
the systems were placed near the room
corners). Although there was satisfying
"presence", the general effect was a "laid
back" quality which many people prefer to
a more neutral, clinical sound with sizzling
highs. The 1203s sounded particularly
impressive with rock music, which could
be played at ear -shattering levels. Jazz
groups and chamber music came over with
an easy -to -listen -to smoothness but the big
plus feature of these systems is the high
efficiency. You don't need a super power
amplifier to drive them and 10 to 20
honest watts will produce almost ease -
breaking sound levels. -George Tillett
