George will be celebrating Dec. 21st not Nov. 21st. Here at Malconia, we have just been favoured by a most unusual sight, like a page taken out of a Dickens novel; we have just witnessed witnessed a simulated Fox Hunt, English style, as some dozen and a half horses and their riders, many in their scarlet tunics, plodded their way across the plowed field just north of our residence and took circuitous routes through the biways of Man- vers and Cartwright, back to farm residence of Mr. and Mrs. John Rae and girls on the summit of Bunker Hill on the Gray Line. Almost forgot to mention, they were accompanied by a pack of hounds. Must admit that on such a cold, windy day, we would not have traded places with the equestrians out there freezing their buns off while emulating a rerun of the Camptown races On Saturday evening, the first-of-a-kind event was held at the Manvers Arena auditorium when a Firefighters Firefighters Christmas Ball was held for all the Manvers Twsp. area firefighters from the Bethany, Janetville and Pontypool Brigades, some 130-140 strong, including their wives, a few guests and Council members and their mates.

Deputy Reeve Terry Sta- . pies was Chairman for this portion of the evening. Reeve Barry Pickering welcomed welcomed all and sundry, and expresses appreciation to the local firefighters for their dedicated service to the township.

Our Township ■ Clerk- Treasurer Ms. Donna (Peg- guy) Whitteker, was recognized recognized for her work in arranging arranging the evening and on the occasion of her 39th(?) birthday! Local area residents were shocked to learn that Dr. Norman Lowes, a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Donald Lowes of Bethany and well known in the area, met a tragic end when murdered in his office in Toronto, by person or persons unknown Sympathy is extended to Dr. Lowes' relatives and close friends. Santa Claus parades have been the order of the day at almost every village and town in the area. A lot of work and dedication goes into the successful planning and execution of such an ev- cent. To these people goes the appreciation of all those who participate and enjoy such events. Personally, I enjoy them - for the first five or 10 minutes. After that, when your feet and fingers turn stiff with the cold, your nose not only starts running but galloping, the cold hits your back and your kidneys demand immediate attention, attention, you vow again (same as last year) that you'll shoot Santa if he does one more "Hoe, Hoe, Hoe."
