BMHA president Don Welsh told board members at a meeting on Sept. 1st that the ice in the arena would be ready for their first hockey practice. The BMHA has also been encouraged by a letter re- ceived from the Ontario Minor Hockey Association (OMHA) recommending that com- munities, around the province facing temporary closing of their arenas for repairs, carry on with game schedules for the 1976-77 season. The hockey association has been assured that the arena can be used at least until Oct. 15 with-permission-to remain open recently granted by the Ontario Ministry of Labor. After that date, the BMHA's schedule of games will depend on the recommendation of a report on the arena by the consulting engineering firm, Totten, Sims and Hubicki. When the new BMHA schedule is underway, specta- tors will watch basically the kind of game they were used to before, with only one minor change in the rules. Instead of shaking hands after a game, under a new OMHA regulation the custom between two competing teams will come before'play starts.

Has anyone seen a freak onion? One of the neighbours in Nestleton has grown what might be called an upside down onion. A stem about fifteen inches long with a fibrous root has produced a medium sized tuber which is at the top of the stem. Seeing is believing - if in doubt call at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Clarke Williams. A steady flow of traffic has been proceeding on 7A High- way. It is rather unusual but thirteen Volkswagens (with- out a break) were counted. Perhaps their owners be- longed to a club but they had no problems in maintaining and exceeding the speed limit. Another oddity in the news- a half-ton truck was travelling on the highway with a billy goat in tow on a leash. He was trotting along with his head held high and looked as if he were "King of the Road." It may be that time of year. again but it is to be hoped they are rushing the season. The bluejays have returned and are looking for their daily quota at the feeding stations. Tobacco harvest is proceed- ing according to schedule. Frost forecasts created an anxious time but the services of an aeroplane dispelled this hazard. Congratulations to local ladies who were successful with their exhibits at Port Perry Fair.

Of course, the propietor, Mrs. Wm. Fortune, with her outgoing and friendly personality, always gives you a warm welcome. This isn't a large Shoppe but when twelve customers visited it on the same day, at the same time - WOW! Most of us remember Mrs. Fortune as the former Mildred Langfeld who has her roots in Nestleton and who grew up here and all are happy for the success of this new venture. She is back to school now in her capacity as a Remedial Reading Special- ist but she vill be back for the weekends at the Pink Shoppe.

Presbyterian In the Presbyterian Church Miss Dorothy Bulmer, Deaco- ness, read the Scripture pas- sage Romans 8, 26-31. How can all things work for good in this world? You and I know that it is easier to love someone when things go right. Sometimes all these events and problems prevent us from loving God. We get detoured. God sends assistance into each one of our lives and he is like a sculptor trimming each one of us for good. Jesus Christ ig 'the model. Mr. S. McNeely and Mrs. H. Visser sang, "Rise up of Man of God." United Church In the United Church Rever- end Victor Parsons read Scripture passages from Genesis 6 andaJohn 5. Choos- ing "Work or Labour" as theme of his message Mr. Parsons dealt with the com- plexities in the world today. Technology has liberated people from much of the drudgery in life.

Harold and Thelma Bennett were the leaders with 30 and 28 wins. They were followed by Ruth Gillingham 24, Morgan Lunney 24, John Coombes 24, Les Coombes 22, Marg Perris 22, John Luffman 21, Helen Lunney 20, Ellen Coombes 20. we must take pride in achieve- ment. The danger comes when work becomes an obsession. Seven days per week is too much of a'burden. We must have time for relaxation and recreation orre-creation. Our economy may collapse and unemployment will increase if we continue to price ourselves out of world markets. There. must be a redistribution to give relief to those who live below the poverty line. Shar- ing is the Christian way of life. Miss Gail Malcolm sang, "Somebody Bigger than You and I." It was interesting to see Harold Bennett bowled 58 games and Thelma won near- ly as many while playing in 47 which may or may not prove anything. The Coombes family of 4 were on the winning side 83 times while the Reynolds foursome made it on 49 occasions. There were over 400 games recorded. Our final tournament is-a mixed doubles event on Sept. 15 - aft. and eve. The fall meeting will be held in the club house on Sept. 26. It will be preceded by a fun day starting at 1:30 and a chicken dinner and we have room for about six guests if you are interested.
