t 4 The Canadian Statesman, Bowmanville, November 20,1985 NDP Marathoners Raise 9 1,000 in Pledges The NDP Durham East Riding Association doesn't usually have much to do with equestrian pursuits, but on November 17th Rick Byrne rode "Lady" ten miles from Oshawa to Bowmanville to raise funds for the association's depleted coffers. Past-president Bill Swan (on the left), a marathon runner, went on foot; and Doug Smith (right), NDP candidate in the past provincial and municipal elections, rode his bike the distance. Along the way, the three were chased by dogs, corralled a stray steer, and in the process raised approximately $1,000 through pledges. Wesley ville News (intended for last week) Thanksgiving and Remembrance Remembrance were part of the service at Welcome United Church on Sunday, November 10th. Mrs. Lynda King spoke on the topic of a, life of Thanksgiving and memories were recalled in a period of silence. Mrs. Mary Kellogg, Stephen McHolm and Andrea Thompson led in a litany of celebration and Tom Wilson Wilson led, with the congregation congregation responding, in a prayer of confession. In it, forgiveness forgiveness was asked for careless use of God's gifts of air, land and water. "Keep us from dullness of spirit that denies denies the wonders of God's gifts."

Phyllis Symons, Christine Wilson, Gwen Best and Jean Payne represented Welcome Welcome UCW at a mid week event held in Oshawa on Tuesday and Wednesday of last week. Leader for the two days was Dr. Jas Beal of Lindsay and the ladies who attended parts of both days felt it time well spent.

Mr. and Mrs. Harold Austin, Austin, Mr. and Mrs. Arnold Austin and Truman Austin attended the funeral of Mrs. Cora Ferguson in Lindsay on Saturday, November 9th. Mrs. Ferguson was the daughter of the late Harry Barrowclough and his wife Annie Austin. Truman Austin returned last Thursday from the west where he had been on a cattle cattle buying trip with Mr. M. Frew. Weather there was not very enticing, temperature temperature lower and snow deeper than ours last Saturday. Candidates for Hope council presented their views, to a large crowd of voters at Welcome fireball last Wednesday night. All are newcomers to council so it was well to hear their standing on business to be faced. Those who live in the vicinity of the proposed sale or lease of hydro lands watch with much concern the various suggestions. With so much agriculture land already covered over south of the lakeshore road, it would be unfortunate to see more lost to food production. production. Mr. and Mrs. Barry Best of Kingston spent the weekend at Bridgenorth and here with Mr. and Mrs. Harold Best Mr. and Mrs. Neal Nichols of Toronto visited with Mr. and Mrs. Clarence Nichols on Saturday, November 9th and Helene Karvonen of Scarborough spent from Friday night till early Sunday Sunday morning with her mother here. Among those visiting the Royal Winter Fair during the weekend were Mr. and Mrs. A. Thorndyke and Mr. and Mrs. Carroll Nichols. Edgar Nichols, Ken Dinner Dinner and sons Ron and Larry all returned home from their hunting trip in the north without any dear. Either the animals are very scarce or they are very hunter wise. Strange things have hap- pended in gardens this year. With such a long dry spell, then heavy fall rains, vegetables began producing producing the second crop. One lady was amazed to find a fine crop of juicy, crisp radishes which had grown from seeds dropped from mature plants of the early part of the year. Cauliflower Cauliflower roots sent up dozens of plants, many of them producing producing small heads. Unlike cabbage which grow second and third heads from the same stalk, the cauliflower came from the root. When this is in print November November 11 will have gone for another year, that day of remembering. One memory is of a service held on the steps of the very new Parliament Parliament Building at Ottawa on November 11, 1920. A large white cross was erected on the steps and there the ceremony was held. It was very close to the end of World War I and the dark gray day matched the feelings of bereaved families who laid their wreaths at the foot of the cross. It was cold that day with snow flakes falling on people and flowers, alike. <--BEFORE AFTER.

MARIE HUBBARD Regional Councillor Continually Serving Your Needs 623-3379 623-2457 Waverley Public School News Library By Jennifer Moser The library at Waverley Public School is a very big part of the school. Not only does it have great books to take out, it is full with reference reference books for all the students to use for projects etc. The library attracts the eye. What I mean by that is that it always has attractive bulletin boards. On the walls there are pictures drawn or pictures from books or magazines. If it was near Christmas it would display Christmas trees or things to do with Christmas. If Easter there would be an Easter Bunny and so on. The library tries to stress the fact that books are for reading not eating. All the students can take out books. The books that they have are fiction, non-fiction, and reference books. They have all sorts of magazines and the one kind of magazine that they have the most of is National Geographic. The library is also used for clubs such as Fish Club, Story Time, Computer Club, Chess and Checkers Club and Monster Club. The library has three computers for all the classes to use. Each class gets to use the computer one day a week. Students go twice at a time. The teacher can program games or an educational educational program for the computer. computer. The librarian is Mrs. Anyan. The library has helpers. Each helper gets a shelf to keep tidy. The library helpers and Mrs. Anyan make the library a very good and clean place to be. Career Week at Waverley By Laura Broadbent, Tracy Moriarity and Tanya McConnell This year for career week, Waverley had some people come and tell about their career, Constable Dillon was the first guest to come and tell us about her career. She told us about how long it took her to be a police officer and how long sh^ was in training. She , talked tti us about self defense, ! the different laws and charges land showed us some of her i equipment such as hand cuffs and night stick, etc. We heard about accidents she has been to and the rights of citizens. The next person who came to tell us about his career was Mr. James, a retired beekeeper. He used to buy bees by the pound. The Queen was separated from the worker bees so she wouldn't get hurt. He showed us his equipment that he used, when he was a beekeeper. He told us that in the winter the bees huddle close together to keep warm. Did yoii know that bees can make different colors of honey? That's one of the things that Mr. James showed us on slides he brought. We really learned about Mr. James' career. The last person I am going to tell you about is Mrs. Cook, an airline stewardess. She works for Wardair and has been for the last eight years. Wardair has been flying for 25 years. You have to be twenty to be a stewardess and over five feet tall. You also have to have Grade 12. The Wardair planes are not on the ground for more than two hours. If you even take a trip on Wardair Wardair you just might see Mrs. Cook, Next week's column will tell about the other three career week visitors. Mr. McKelvey's Class In math Mr. McKelvey's class has done adding. The class counted all of the UNICEF money. They had to tell how much each person, class and the whole school collected. They made graphs. They made up word problems and solved them. In gym they are doing stretching exercises and then practice volleyball. At the end of gym class they play a short game of volleyball. In human growth they are doing things on career week, and in Drama they are doing things with jobs and wanted newspaper ads.
