They are most unusual, featuring the motto 'This year, don't just think about it, do it!' Our thanks. We'll try.

He has successfully retained his post as head of the municipality in each of the municipal elections held since that time. The Newcastle mayor is a former reeve of Darlington Township, and formerly warden of the United Counties of Northumberland and Durham.

In this area it didn't happen, with rain replacing the white stuff. However, the weather reports indicate that it may change to normal winter weather today, but as this is being written written it doesn't look too promising. Ski resort operators and retailers with plenty of equipment still on their hands, must be tearing out their hair. OUR THANKS -- Sincere thanks to rural correspondents who went to considerable effort to bring in their weekly news reports for this week. Their dedication is deeply appreciated. Some reports intended for last week were held up in the Christmas mail rush and didn't arrive in time, so they appear this week, a bit out of date. 125th ANNIVERSARY -- The opening gun in Bowmanville's 125th anniversary celebrations will be fired at 10:30 a.m. New Year's Day when the town's flag will be raised on the flagpole at the Police-Fire building. Fortunately, as there is no gun there to fire a 20-round salute, the event won't be too noisy for those still in bed who celebrated too much on New Year's Eve. If you are up and about, drop over and help get our anniversary underway. MANY PARTIES -- As usual, there will be many private parties and public dances around the town this New Year's Eve as we say farewell and good riddance to 1982 and get ready for whatever is ahead of us in 1983. Our hope is that the trials and tribulations of the past year will temporarily be forgotten with everyone having an enjoyable evening and a safe return home at the end of festivities. festivities. Needless to say, the boys in blue will be on the job to make certain you drive carefully and don't indulge in too much mind-boggling booze. WELCOME -- A minor midget hockey team from Alta Sweden was scheduled to arrive last night for a week's visit in the area. Their first game will be played tonight at 7 at Darlington Sports Centre. This is the same team that played host to our Flying Dutchman major bantams last year. No doubt there will be a grand reunion when they all meet again and renew friendships. The team will be billetted at local homes. BUSY TIME -- There must have been many folks with money left after Christmas because, from all reports, every store in the area that ran'a Boxing Day Sale on Monday or Tuesday did a roaring business. We checked on local outlets such as Bowmanville Audio-Vision, Canadian Tire and Stedmans and they were busy. And people were dropping in who had been at the Oshawa Shopping Centre and they were flabbergasted at the line-ups and the difficulties encountered trying to find parking space. - IP fepfc iv Trust, Bowmanville would like to thank all the kind and thoughtful people who gave so generously to our toy and canned good drive this Christmas. All of the donations were very much appro,"inted. Thanks again from all the staff at Family Trust. GOOD LUCK -- We note a report in the items* of interest column where friends in the Hampton- Solina area held a farewell party recently for the town's former Works Dept, director Jack Dunham and his wife. They are leaving for Tecumsch Township where Mr. Dunham has secured a position. We wish them well. liliiMi» 77 EE MM i m IS HH. ; 7» : A V i 7* ' 7-7 \ Driver Escapes Injury in Truck Accident on Hwy. 401 Danulge was estimated at approximately $12,000 after thij? tractor trailer jackknifed on Highway 401 last Wednesday, December 22.
