from the mythical giant Polyphemus Mabel let themoh go shortly after the picture was taken With the last day of school coming up one has to recall their feelings when the year was completed for them too My most devastating last day of school was in grade four Ihadmlssedoutonthe entire last month of school fun because I was In Ihe hospital in Toronto I returned on the very last day of school and wasnt allowed to go for the chocolate milk and sandwiches the end of the year treat In Conn aught School My younger sister came rushing home to me that day excited to see me after a month without an older sister to trail along behind not that I minded but In between her hugs she informed me my beloved Ronnie had failed and had to repeat grade It hid already been four weeks since we had seen each other and I knew this was It Our three year romance would be through I would have to give back the Dick radio ring and I never find another guy to marry I was in a terrible state I remember sitting on the back steps sobbing my heart out clutching my poor mother whose attempts to get me to calm down were fruitless She Just didn understand that I was doomed for the rest of my life She told me to stop crying because the neighbors would think It was I who had failed and at that point I think I decided to repeat the year also Just to be with Ronnie But she assured me he would love me even 1 was In grade 5 and he in grade But wis right He labelled me as on intellect and never again did be punch my arm to show his love for me We did make one last attempt at saving our relationship the nut winter My mother paid both our ways Into the show one Saturday afternoon even at 10 years but he prom pity disappeared as soon as we got Into the dark I found him after the show walking with friends band In hand a twin on either side Needless to say I haven spoken to him since So next week when I see all the little kids fleeing the school yard for the final time 111 probably be wondering what romances are bring broken as July looms close by What better way to spend a warm Saturday afternoon but at a ball game And that Just what the Acton Royals Baseball team did except this time they were watching Instead of playing A busload of players with a few friends ventured to the CNE Stadium to see he Blue Jays in action against the California Angels The Angels won they think thanks to homer by Reggie Jackson Even though he gam was blacked out to Toronto It was shown in NBC The fancy scoreboard flatbed a big welcome to the Acton team Andy King moving on Acton Trinity United Church says good bye to Rev Andy King this Sunday It is a farewell that was expected from his first day town last June but nevertheless still a difficult one to make for the newly ordained minister Rev King was brought to town as an in minister for one year replacing the popular Rev Chuck Beaton He knew he had large shoes lo fill and was wary of how well he would be accepted by the congregation But it t take long for his to be settled he recalls Not only did the people in the church accept him right away but many others in town also He and his wife Debbie fell in love with Acton and feel the town likes them back The congregation has been especially supportive of the young couple helping to make it a terrific year In his short stay here Rev King he was ordained June 1 made no changes in the church The congregation kept itself going They are a very strong and very active group of people he says and I feel 1 participated with them in all of their congregational life He has learned that one of the most important things or a congregation is the quality of fellowship and he believes Acton Is very lucky to have this I hope the congregation gives as much love and support to the incoming minister Don Matheson as they have to me Given the chance Rev King would like to return to Acton some day He is a bit prehensive about his move this week to a smaller church in Malton which is about half the size of Acton in terms of total membership and budget He feels his ex in Acton will help him In his new posting and admits there are a few social events he would like to see Malton adopt fom Acton His new church also Trinity United and the manse are both about a mile from the airport so he realizes he may have competition from above to be heard Hell have mixed reelings Sunday morning as he takes to the pulpit for the final time He does not want to end this chapter in his book but realizes he must move on His book Is only Just beginning Tires set on fire Tires burning at Lot 30 Concession Friday
