Marg was greeted on stage in the grand ballroom of the hotel in front of more than 1000 Weight Watchers members who came from across Southern Ontario to meet her. Mar who reached her goal last summer, works with her husband on their smalf farm in Bowmanviîle and helps out in the family sign painting business. CALLED OFF - A note has landed on our desk advising that the Liberal Dance and Buffet, planned for the Lions Centre here on October 25th, bas been called off. Apparently, the lead trumpet player of the Dixieland band hired for this event, has been sent to Europe on a six weeks business trip and the group cannot operate without him. NAMED SPEAKER - Congratulations are in order for Northumberland's veteran MPP, Russell Rowe, who on Tuesday was named Speaker of the Ontario Legislature. SPECIAL SECTION - In addition to the two regular sections in this week's Canadian Statesman, there should be a third one in the edition you receive. It contains some interest- ing information and advertisements, all con- nected with Sight and Sound. We urge you to read it as thoroughly as the rest of the paper. GREAT MEETING - Nine members of Bowman- ville Kinsmen Club, headed by District Governor Don Masterson, played an active role in a Fall Council meeting over the weekend at the Continental Inn, Barrie. 61 clubs were represented, and according to reports, it was one of the most successful get-togethers held in recent years. A United Church session in the same hotel, on the same floor, probably found the boisterous event quite an interesting contrast. WARMER WEATHER - After the chilly weather of the past several days, it appears we shall be experiencing some warm Indian summer for a while. Unfortunately, it didn't come soon enough to help some of the apple growers in the area who didn't get their fruit off the trees before the deep frost froze them solid last week. CANVASS - We've just seen a note in the Newcastle Village Lions Club's bulletin 'The Ambitious Line' to the effect that their club will be collecting funds for the blind throughout that village on Monday, starting at 7 p.m. They are also planning to have their Community Swimming Pool in operation by July of next year. Quite an ambitious project for this hard-working club. The percentage ot the popu- lation receiving general wel- fare assistance in Durham Region is exactly average, compared to other Ontario areas. The region's social services committee was told Thursday at 1.6 per cent of its 220,000 people are receiving welfare. The provincial average is the same. Scugog Council has ruled in the Cartwright garbage dis- pute. Residents in Ward 4 (the former township of Cart- wright) will be a ble to apply for garbage collection. A yearly bill for this service will then be affixed to their annual tax billing. Clerk Neil Brodie says he does not anticipate any problems with these ills not being legally binding because the residents who require garbage collection will have to apply for the service. No estimates about the cost of this service are yet avail- able. Apparently, costs cannot be calculated until all the applications have been re- ceived and the tenders from firms wishing to do the work have been submitted. ee le the nt. cil .at ty ,it He an apartment $150, a one bed- room $300, a two bedroom $450, a tbree or mare bedroom $600, and a senior citizen unit $150. Newcastle will also collect a $250 severance fee, while the lot bevies will also be augu- mented by regional charges for sewer, water and Works Durham é4-H Awards Night Durham 4-H Agricultural Club will close with the annual banquet and awards night presentation at Clarke High School, Oct. 26, at 7 p.m. Awards night recognizes outstanding achievement in 4-H Club work during tbe past year and focuses attention on the County 4-H club program Collection artwright Apply for it In addition, no figures are readily available on the cost per household for garbage collection this year. When asked whether the system of collecting fromone house and not from another would be confusing to the individuals doing the work, Mr. Brodie said, "That's one of my reservations about the (Turn to Page Two) Senior BHS Cheerleaders in Action at Football Game These seven attractive and energetic Senior ÉHS cheerleaders worked hard at the football game last week, doing their best to encourage their team, but without avail, the team lost to Clarke High School.
