Riota4ry He-ars, About 1B by Bill Arnott This week Rotarian, AI Witherspoon enlightened the Bowmanville Rotary Club on the history, geography and his personal experiences in Ber- muda . Mr. Witherspoon began is talk by giving a geographi- cal history of how the island came to bDe. He told the club Bermuda wa's the resuit of a volcano some 100,000 years ago. He explained that the volcano didn't break the surface of the water, but through time the coral and sediment build up created the present Island. It is approximately 20 square miles, one mile wide and about 20 miles in length in the shape of a fish hook. Bermuda was first discovered by Bermudes, in the l6th century. Mr. Witherspoon told the club that it was believed that the island was first discovered prior to that by an Irishmani who. wrote and dçeribed it as a homïe for birds, millions of birds beîng the only inhabitants. In the days of Spanish »THEY"RE COMING FOR THANKSGIVI NGV' Let us be thankful for the increasing abundance which we in Canada enjoy. Let us also wvisely safeguard it with adequate insurance ýprotec- tion. James Insuranc 24 King St. E., Box 100 BOWMANVILLE, ONTARIO DOUGLAS S. JAMES Office 623-4406 Residence 623-5023 erm uda treasure sbips heading from tbe new world to Spain, Bermuda was used as a turning point. Ships laden witb gold, etc. would corne nortb as far as Bermuda then turn east for Spain. With its coral reefs and frequent hurricanes and storms, 360 of these vessels ended their trips on the reefs and sank. This' being the number of sbips found by present day scuba divers., Many of tbe treasures bave been found in 24 feet of water, one and a haîf million dollars of treasure bave been recov- ered by two skin divers. Britain acquired the island by accident, Mr. Witberspoon continued. Nine ships were despatcbed from England to Virginia, a member of the Thirteen Colonies. The ships were carrying food and other necessities, Virginians baving made a plea with the mother country for help or they wouldn't stay. What happened to ail the sbips was not clarified in Mr. Witberspoon's speech. However, be related thauit the flagship was run up on thie coral reefs at Bermuda in order to keep it from- sinking. Thie crew of that ship spent 9 montbs on the island building two new ships from the old one. They then Inaded up food goods from the island and made their way to Virginia. Two of the crew when tbey reached Virginia would have stood trial for murder. So tbey jumped sbip during the de- parture from Bermuda, and along with another man who became shipwrecked on the island were the first inhabi- tants of the island. These men are now referred to as the three kings.' Later on, the island became the beadquarters for priva- teers wbo plundered Spanish Treasure Ships. Bermuda bas a population of 50,000, -of wbicb 40,000 are black and 10,000 are, white. Tourism is the main industry in termis of dollars and cents there being two other smaller industries,' a perfume manu- facturer and a pottery plant. The water surrounding the island is neyer below 84 degrees, and s0 clear you can see approximately 100 feet down, Mr. Witberspoon re- ported.' The sand is a pink color and beaches are long. Drinking water is obtained by collecting rain there being no other source. The process of collecting ramn water is acbieved by' bouses having sloping roof s which drain tbe water to a collection point. In Hamilton, the capital city, the top of a bill is cemented for the saine pur pose. 1 - Mr. Witherspoon related the story of a motorcycle accident when telling of the narrow MAPLE GROVE The third meeting of the Maple Grove Mouth Stuffers was held on Setember 30, at Maple Grove Church.

The discussion on improving the meetings fol- lowed complaints fromn sev- eral councillors tbat the meet- ings were 'too long and the agenda was often not followed. Mayor Malcolm explained that be was treading cautious- ly in the conduct of meetings because the council was formed by the amalgamation of four previous councils eacb Witb its own style. Coun. Bob Kenny compiain- ed that delegations were often beard by council even though they bad not gone tbrough tC formai process of informing the cler in advance of their intention to attend. Such delegations do 'not appear on the agenda and councîllors are often unprepared to bear their representations. Coun. Frew agreed with tbis argument and added that delegations sbould be restrict- ed to five or six members. Coun. Rose commented that Scugog council was not ready to delegate responsibility by settin g up committees of council as the larger munici- palities bad done.
