Seniors Hold Meeting The Bowmanville Senior Citizens' Club met at the Lions Centre on Tuesday, October 9th at 7:30 p.m. After a brief business period, Walter Woolley led in a sing song. The following musical program was enjoyed: two solos by Rev. Langley playing his own accompaniments "One Day When We Were Young," and "On the Road to Mandalay;" three piano numbers by Jason Rekker, a "Study" by Bergmueller, "Rondo" by Steibelt, and "Fiir Elise" by Beethoven; a duet by Jason and David Rekker "A Mexican Dance." These talented boys are pupils of Mrs. Langley. Queenie Fletcher spoke on her trip to Britain this past summer, bringing back many memories. A contest on "Ontario" prepared by Oscar and Doris Wollstein made us realize how little we know about our own province. The evening concluded with refreshments and visiting.

Many Thanksgiving Visitors in Wesley ville Area WESLEYVILLE NEWS (Intended for last week) So far this has been a beautiful Thanksgiving weekend with everything in favor of those going or coming home. Mrs. Joan Jiggins, Michael and Matthew were home from Chatham with Carroll and June Nichols; Eric and Linda Oliver of Waterloo with Thorndykes and all were spending part of the holiday with Brian and Sharon Edey of Bowmanville; Elva Austin and family spent part of Sunday with her grandmother, Mrs. Prouse, Port Hope; Barry and Judy Best of Kingston were home with Harold and Gwen Best; Harold Barrowclough had Bill and family home from Peterborough for part of the holiday. These were a few of the visitors with others having family either Sunday or Monday. Saturday was a very busy day in Port Hope and district as it coped with the house tour. The Welcome U.C.W. gave dinner to over 400 at the noon hour, with three sittings. That took some, organizing and it was well done by the social committee with Orald Ford and Phyllis Symons leading. Everything went smoothly, although there were a few tired ladies at the end of the day. Mr. Eldon Johnson of Michigan returned after a School Safety Week to be Observed October 17th -23rd Each year in Canada, approximately 100 school- children of ages 5-14 are killed in pedestrian traffic accidents. Many of these would not have happened if children had obeyed the rules of pedestrian safety, but all too often, children get so wrapped up in the excitement of the moment that they don't think about the consequences of their impulsiveness. October 17-23 marks School Safety Week and the Canada Safety Council would like to take this opportunity to remind motorists to drive carefully, especially in school zones and residential areas. Now that autumn is here, nightfall arrives early and students may be more difficult to see returning home from school. Always be on the alert for the unexpected, like a child suddenly darting into the path of traffic. Always stop for flashing schoolbus lights, and consider these a warning that little ones are near. Be extra careful when passing a cyclist; he may suddenly have to swerve to avoid a pothole or lose his balance riding over wet leaves. Always allow a full lane when passing a cyclist -- this is the law and good common sense. The responsibility for child safety on the street is shared among children, parents, educators and motorists alike. This year's theme for School Safety Week is "A Little Care Makes Mishaps Rare." It is hoped that it will remind Canadians that a little effort on everyone's part goes a long way to ensure the safety of our school-children. summer visit to Port Hope for the house tour and to look for family history. He was thrilled to be able to copy an 1892 account of a hundredth birthday party. Mrs. Timothy Haskill was Electa Johnson, a sister of his ancestor, Justin. She told of the family arriving in 1803 by sleigh by way of Wolfe island, Kingston and Belleville. He also got a copy of her picture taken in 1896, the year of her death. She is buried at Welcome. Church service at Welcome on Sunday, October 7th was conducted by Rev. M. Buttars, in the absence of Rev. Gordon Rutherford who was conducting services on another charge. Service began at 10 o'clock to allow for attendance at Canton and will again on the 14th for Garden Hill anniversary. Flowers were in the church in loving memory of Amelia Lancaster. All of the people who called Wesleyville and the Lakeshore Road, home, were saddened to hear of the death of Amelia Lancaster last ' Sunday morning, and offer sympathy to her husband Sidney, daughter Dorella and family and her brother Carroll Nichols and family. From early girlhood, her home was here, and being one of those who made good use of talents given her, she was an important part of all group efforts in the community. So much so that when she left to be the bride of Sidney Lancaster of Newtonville, people here wondered how they could manage without her. Her kindness and dependability did not cease for the rest of her life and for those attributes she will be remembered by family and a wide circle of friends to comfort the days ahead. Amelia loved poetry and often made use of Oxenham's words: "To every man there openeth a way and ways, and a way and the high soul climbs the high way and the low soul gropes the low, and in between on the misty flats, the rest drift to and fro." Amelia travelled the high way. Many from here attended her funeral in Bowmanville and among those from a distance were cousins, Marion Smith of Philmore, New York and Bob and Kate Jones of Rochester. June Nichols suffered an unfortunate accident on Saturday, September 29 while burning some paper, corn stalks and other garden debris. Too near the flame when it flared up, her face and head kerchief were burned. She drove herself to hospital where she remained until Tuesday noon. The burns are healing well although it took some time to recover from shock. Another former resident, Mr. Hector Inch, passed away last week. He once farmed near Port Britain, and for many years was treasurer of Hope Township. Sympathy is extended to his family also. We do complain of our postal system but they have some unusual addresses to handle. One arrived the other day with the correct person's name and Welcome Methodist Church, Welcome, Ontario. There hasn't been a Methodist Church there for 59 years, nor a post office for much longer, yet it arrived safely. Some one had written Port Hope, in red ink, on it. Deer evidently like beet tops. A week ago about half the row of beets in one garden were neatly topped with some pulled out. In a few more days, most of the rest were eaten. Deer tracks gave away the identity of the fancier. Silos are being filled but it is not time yet for harvesting of the fields planted for the seed. They need more time to dry. Farmers' Beliefs Confirmed The study of 6,000 farmers by the Farm Credit Corporation Corporation (FCC) just proves what farm groups have been saying all along, the president of the Ontario Federation of Agriculture (OFA) said recently. "Farm groups can tell political decision makers, T told you so,' because we've been warning them all along that the crisis of farming isn't due to poor management," said Harry Pelissero. The study by the FCC relates productivity to debt. It shows that the one-third of Canadian farmers with high debt loads and low equity in their farming operations produced about half of Canada's food last year. "Politicians who have hemmed and hawed because they didn't have the cold, hard facts must take decisive action immediately. The situation might not be as serious now if they'd listened to us in the first-place. If they had provided long-term, low- interest loans when farmers first started feeling the squeeze, the statistics might not be as startling as they are," Pelissero said. "The formula for the success of agriculture is a two- part equation," Pelissero said. "The first part is longterm, longterm, affordable credit and the second part is providing farmers with adequate returns for their products." The OFA recommends several courses of action for the federal and provincial governments. At the federal level, the federation has recommended an agri-bond program, to provide farmers with affordable credit at less than market rates. The FCC should be restored to a preferred source of long-term credit, and its high-interest loans should be refinanced. An effective stabilization program must be put in place . as soon as Parliament reconvenes. At the provincial level, the OFA is lobbying for a program to freeze interest rates on operating loans, a new capital loans program for improvements to productivity and environmental standards and a re-organization of the Ontario Farm Adjustment Assistance Program. The FCC study shows that the most productive farmers are carrying the most debt. "Consumers benefit from farmers' ability to produce high quality food in abundance and at reasonable prices. Any government action to help farmers staggering under this debt load would help everyone," Pelissero said. IHERE IS HOIMItt LIKE Jt V3LLDI. LOW PRICES. EVERYDAY!
