10 Thle Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, Januarv 4. 1'q78 YELVERTON (Y ntended,, for last week) Christmas celebrations have corne and gone and once again we missed our opportu- nity to express Season's Greetings so will make amends by wishing any who may stumble across, through or over our Yelverton column the best 1977 ever in peace, health and happiness coupled with ample prosperity., Christmas as per usual was a family affair with the majority of folks unsuc- cessfully fighting the Battie of the Bulge as in-laws vie with out-laws to provide the mouth watering delicacies common to the season. Some of the festive activi- ties that were held in our community were as follows:- Mr. and Mrs. John Hunter of Pembroke divided their holi- days between the Fred Staceys and the Hunters in Lindsay. They shared Christ- mas with the Stacey family near Keene with Mr. and Mrs. Keith Eggleton and family. Also present was Janice's sister Tina and family of Oshawa. Mr. and Mrs. Murray Malcolm hosted their own family on Christmas day - Mr., and Mrs. Paul Bowen, Miss Darlene Malcolm of Edmonton - holidaying with hier parents for two weeks, Valerie and Lana. Paul and Marleah also were guests with Paul's sister Rosemary in Toronto for a Bowen get- together on Boxing Day. Mr. and Mrs. Jim Beggs and family of Port Elgin spent a portion of their Christmas week at the Norman Wilsons. The Ray Robinson family spent Christmas day with the Henderson family at the Gordon Hendersons in T.O, Mr. and Mrs. Howard Mal- colm hosted their family - r. and Mrs. Terry Malcolm ind family, Brenda's parents, Ur.,and Mrs. Allan Gundrie )f Barrie and brother Stephen nd girlfriend Cathy of roronto and Mr. James 'hackleton.
