The highest judge, our Creator, will judge us by what we have done. Many people would love to adopt a child. In this area the waiting list is great.

Tom Webb, Sunday tour guide at the Bowmanville Museum, says his interest in restoring the Jury family family piano is a case of "one old crock helping another." The museum is seeking donations to restore this piano to its former condition so that it can be not only a part of the museum's collection but also a working instrument for use at museum functions. Mr. Webb is shown here beside the piano which was built by the Dominion Organ and Piano Company in 1904.
