I MM M*~M Çl3its andi fPweces NATIVE - We are indebted to Mrs. Howard' Pickard for drawing to our attention an item in "The Canadian Nurse." It mentioned that a native of Bowrnanville, Howard Walter Dale, had, been appointed ernpioyment relations consultant for the Manitoba Association of Registered Nurses. *Wchecked with Melville S. Dale because t1e- name is flot a common one in thîs area and besides fromn his picture he could have been a brother.> But, Mcl has no knowledge of this native son. Can any of our readers enlighten us? t t.- i. t. ti. CELEBRATION - Although Centennial Dominion Day is long past, frequent comments about the lack of a celebration in town, have prompted one gentleman to make a confession. The Rev. K. J. Frampton of St. John's expresses regrets to any- one who was awakened by the belîs of St. John's that rang out at rnidnight on June 3th to cele- brate the anniversary occasion, but he assures citizens their sleep will'flot be similarly disturbed for another huindred years. So, apparently, there was a celebration in town after ail. t t t t t NINETIETH - Congratulations to Mrs. Frederick G. Cornis,, 45 Alington Ave., Oshawa, who cele- brated her 9th birthday on Sunday at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Sid Cornish, Tyrone. She was born on Juiy 16, 1877 at Tyrone on the farm now owned by Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Jeweli. Mr. and Mrs. Mark Cornish and family f rom Sudbury were also present for this happy occasion. Mrs. Cornish is in excellent heaith and has been an ardent reader and subscriber to the Statesman ahl her lîfe and stiil looks forward to its arrivai each week. She was formerly Martha Hardy, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hardy. i. t t t OMISSION - Our hurnblest apologies for inad- vertentiy oritting the namne of Brian Black of Orono from the picture hast week of the Centen- niai public schooi award winners in Clarke Town- ship. Aiso, an error was made over the phone by either us or the party phoning that caused some embarrassment to one customer in a Card of Thanks. We try to be as careful as possible but suggest that in the interests of accuracy such items shouid be typed eut and maiied or handed in. Then if we make an error in setting it inte type, we shall be happy to reprint it without charge. t t t t. i SHOCK - Those who knew him in this ares, wiii find it hard to believe that energetic 54-year- oid Herb Mackie had a heart attack and died on Sunday. He had been ur-npiring a playoff se! tball garne on Saturday afternoen and suffered a seiz- ure some heurs later. His funeral was held today fromn Ebenezer Church. His death is a great loss to the Darlington community. t t.-.t t t FIRES - Bowmanville firemen had a couple of cails recently. Que was over a week ago near Courtice where some sawdust caught fire in a oellar and caused considerable smoke damage. Last Thursday afternoou, a similar blaze ini the basernent of Brian Upjohn's cottage at Eufield coyered al floors with soot and did some smoke damnage. Apparently, there was a poor phone' conniection wlth the result the brigade made two trips te the area before locating the fine. t + t t t RYDRO- According te Alex Çarruthers, MPP for Durham, Ontario HYdro is securmng options ou between 700 and 900 acres in Hope Township for what may be a nuclear or a foasil-fueled power station, smrn e -ne the future.
