Brought before Scugog Township .council earlier this year, the pro- "posal was all but turned _-- flat. Nomoney, was the main reason; But for atleast one group of Blackstock young people, «you just don't give up that easy. To show their optimism and - determination, Blackstock Action Centre... an OFY summer project of some 80 youngsters. raised $30.00 as the first small step in the fund-raising for the proposed ice project. Where there was not an account before, '"The Blackstock Art- ificial Ice Surface" section of the ledger will show $30.00. "It's $30.00 more than there was before," said one of the young people." © The money was raised about three weeks ago at a Penny Carnival held by about 30 youngsters. With the money in their pockets, the youngsters held a vote where the money should go. Tennis courts or the arena. "They did this on their ° own," said Vernon Assel- stine, chairman of the parks board, who accepted the don- -ation Thursday. Mr. Asselstine, who 1 made .the proposal to council earlier this year along with cost estimates, hopes that the confidence shown by. the youngsters wouldn't be lost. "There is a real need for an artificial ice surface," he said. "Perhaps the arena Ja t suitable for regular key games, but there are of things that can be done hs 2 hockey." He said the arena is well-used in the winter months, but that the dependency on cold weather cuts the skating season con- siderably. "You might call this," he said, "grass roots support for the ice surface." Manchester Church Sunday, Aug. 24 at 11:15 a.m. Rev. G. Wylie in A charge.

News from Greenbank Commenting on the Re- vised Standard Bible, the London Eco "One should report that Agog, who walks delicately to David in the King James Bible, fat and trembling in the Davay Bible, and with faltering step- in the New English Bible, actually walks cheerfully in the Common Bible (RSV). The Revised Standard Version .is, of course, the translation now acceptable to - Protestants, Roman Catholics and eastern Orthodox Churches. So at least the Ecumenical Move- ment has brought agreement on Agog's gait. The Bible, by the way, has been translated into 1,431 tongues, about 97 per cent of the werld's langu- ages. This should confirm the authenticity of the Tower, of Babel. There are likely far more devoted readers of the Bible than there are true believers and for these and for many true believers no- thing will ever take the place of the King James Version, the stately rhythmic prose that like good poetry has fastened itself unforgetably on the memory. Also from observation of the portly, it is quite possible that Agog was both fat and had a delicate step. Who was Agog? The defeated King of the Amale- kites whom Saul spared but the stern priést Samuel 'hewed to pieces'. Mr. and Mrs. Art Couves and Mr. and Mrs. Armour McMillan were guests of the W. H.

In a goose backlash, two: geese, utterly disgusted with the quality of the water in the drying-up Belleview pond and driven frantic by the roar' and smell of No. 12 traffic, attacked a demon driver and his vehicle last week, They lost their lives in their valor- ous rebellion, The sight of our harmless hamlet from' the juncture at No, 47 seems to madden, motorists. , They aim their cars like assault weapons at :it, shooting up and down the hill, scattering pebbles, fumes and noise, warwhoops probably if they could be heard. Also from the skids and ruts in the shoulder many seem to prefer to drive off the macadam. Quite apart from the mindless frenzy of this kind of driving, Greenbank has a. most . dangerous curve and, of course, there are the farm driveways leading off the highway. Surely it would take only a minimum of regional responsibility to put up a more attention-getting warning and perhaps install a flashing light. shouldn't speed limits be lowered on the approaches of a community, not ust at its edge? -MAR-LAINE HAND CRAFT BOUTIQUE 160 Queen Street - Port Perry,Ont. 985-8011 Doodle Art and Sheepskin Rugs MACRAME SUPPLIES and BEADS Jiffy Stitchery - Needle Pointers - Tapestry and Hand Crafts.
