The decon and furnishings of the parlour and upstairs bedrooms tell something of the life of the gentry and an upstairs room is set up as a school room complete with the aroma of a fresh apple. A showcase contains souvenir china from Bowmanville and Hampton among other locales. Leisure pastimes are depicted in the toys as early as an 1860 dollhouse, samplers and hand-wonked pictures in shadow boxes which the Victorians were so fond of. Not ail people enjoy the idie days of summer and it is those at-homes that the Museum Friends would like to have join their ranks. Men may be interested in helping to preserve metal and wooden articles. The women volunteers help to change and arrange exhibits in the Museum and act as bostesses for such occasions as the July tea, the Pre-Chistmas Sale in November and the Christmas party. They also make crafts for the November sale. The volunteering process means giving of some time and a particular talent to make an essential part of the community thrive. As well, a lot of learning is done in the process. If you can spare a couple of afternoons a month and need some friendly coaxing, give the Museum 's curator a caîl: Marion Veinot at 623-2734.

Solina Investments constructed a building five feet too close to Mrs. Mackie's property line and the committee of adjustment rejected a minor variance application subsequently submitted by the company. The building inspector, Howard Wight, says that when Solina submitted its drawings for the building to the town, he corrected the 20 foot setback from Mrs. Mackie's property to 25 feet, pointed out the changes to the builders and returned the drawings to them. However, in a letter to the town's finance and administration committee dated October 23, 1978, Town Manager Albert Guiler noted, "If you carefully examine drawing No. 1 it appears that the notations made by the building inspector have been erased. " Legal counsel from Mr. Sims was then sought. On November 14, Sims said, "I am satisfied that there was no deliberate attempt by any party to contravene either the by-law or the building permit ... I am satisfied that an honest, unintentional mistake was made." 11e recommended that the committee of adjustment grant a minor variance.

If granted, the company could be required to tear down the building. This suggestion ,was neyer acted upon.
