Nestleton, Caesarea news of interest By Jean Bolan The members of the Caesarea T.0.P.S. club have a rather unique way of re- warding they that lose weight. For each pound lost each lady received $1.00 in play money which may be used to purchase items that are up for auction every six weeks. A new contest begins on July the 5th through Sep- tember 7th. Stars shall be placed beside each member's name. Silver for loss and red stars for gain or failure to lose weight. At the end of the contest, the lady with the most silver stars shall receive a gift. The one with the most red stars shall receive the bopby. There are approximately 14 members in the club. Good luck, girls! On behalf of the commun- ity I wish to extend a warm and sincere welcome to a lovely visitor to Port Perry in the person of Miss Moira Mallery, sister of Mrs. David Waite. Margaret informed me that Moira spent four years in Canada prior to taking up residence in Perth, Australia. Last July, Mar- garet visited with her sister in Australia and had not seen her since. It is hoped that Moira shall remain with us for some time but she, as the elusive butterfly, is free to visit every corner of the continent. I for one, envy her. At present she is working with her sister and brother-in-law in the Travel Bureau. Prayers for improved G & S DISCOUNT VARIETYMART PORT PERRY PLAZA PORT PERRY, ONT.

Ginn, Miss Hattie Cole of Nestleton and for Mrs. Norm Tennyson of Caesarea. A belated wish for a happy birthday is also conveyed to Mr. C. Ginn. Last Wednesday evening in Bowmanville, the Can- adian Foresters were well represented at the joint installation of Courts Venture and No. 964. The event was held in the Centen- nial Hall. Members from Peterborough, Oshawa, Toronto, Charlene and Lady Snowbird enjoyed a. very impressive ceremony. Con- gratulations for winning the trophy for the most active court were extended to the representative from Snow- bird. She in turn congratul- ated the newly installed members on behalf of Court Lady Snowbird. A most delectable pot-luck supper brought the evening to a close. On Saturday afternoon on my way to Hwy. 12, I wit- nessed one of Natures little wonders. - At the corner where Brian's Supertest is, traffic was coming in all four directions and as you all know due to the heat, no driver was too patient. Well, it was something to behold to see cars lined up a dozen' deep in all directions while a Mallard duck and drake nonchalantly crossed the road. It was beautiful. Just a thought...Life is oft times nourished with slim chances, distant echos, faint glimmers and. soft, clear whispers of hope.

The guest speaker on this occasion was Rev. Richard Jones, President of the Canadian Council of Christians and Jews. Rev. Jones gave a most interesting address on his philosophy for a good life and, during the course of his remarks, he told of many annecdotes, and experiences as a teacher and a clergyman. Rev. Jones indicated that many people go through life, constantly looking for happiness. However, he emphasized that to be happy, you must find it in your job and daily living. You must like your work and not just work for monetary reward. You must be happy in your home and your community, and you must develop a personality with a sense of humour. You must have a hobby to take your attention from your daily routine, and must believe in God or a devine power outside of yourself. Rev. Jones also indicated that you must live and work in a country that you like, himself having been born in the United States and now a Canadian Citizen. If you do these things, Rev. Jones pointed out that happiness will come to you as a by-product and you will not need to search for it. Also, on the programme for the evening was Mr. Gus Lask, Provincial Director, Ontario Cattlemen's Assoc- iation. Mr. Lask reviewed the happenings in the beef industry during the past ten years, and explained the reasons for the depressed prices that have been experienced in recent months, He indicated that there was too much beef at the present time to sustain adequate price levels for profitable production. However, he was optimistic enough to say that the beef industry will recover and we will have a viable industry in the years ahead. ARMYWORM ALERT Farmers are advised to be on the alert for armyworm infestations in their crops this year. Some areas in Essex and Kent Counties have already been sprayed because of a build-up of this pest, and it is possible that outbreaks could occur in other areas. The armyworm is a species of cut worm that attacks a wide variety of crops, but prefers members of the grass family, such as fall wheat, spring grains and corn, The worms are brown to dark green caterpillars with five longitudinal strips on their bodies. y are 1% inches when full grown. - They appear in damaging numbers at intervals of about ten years, except for localized infestations which may appear at any time. The caterpillars appear in grain crops during late June to mid July depending on geographical location. They can best be detected .by examining crops frequently during early evening just before sunset; at this time the caterpillars are moving up on the plants to feed. They hide under clumps of grass and clods of earth during the day. Five to six larvae per square foot warrant chemical control. If foliage is heavily notched, and most of the caterpillars are less than 1! inches long, a treatment is recommended. When plants are defoliated, and most of the caterpillars are fully grown, treatment is not practical. Each field must be assessed, and dealt with separately. Armyworms often move in large numbers from one field to another. When this happens, it is advisable to spray the border of the invaded field. Complete information on armyworm control is available from your local Ontario Ministry of Agricul- ture and Food office. A > AR > Sa
