2-Oron'o Weekly Times, Wednesday, June 8, 1988 Assured of a good time ■ If you want to be assured of a good time just assemble a group of former students together who over the past 25 years have spread their wings out over the North American continent and it all comes to pass. Truly this was the case over the week-end when Clarke High School held their Twenty-fifth Anniversary after seeing some 100,000 students pass their way through the school. The story was told through the greetings, the laughter and smiles as former class mates meet possible the first time, in some cases, sincè graduation. Those taking the opportunity to make the visit back to Clarke and the associated events certainly certainly call it a top event and well it was. It was obvious that a lot of work was undertaken by the resident former students who pitched-in to undertake the organization and the promotion. Their reward has to be knowing that the event was a prime success. Just a few words from Wayne Kennedy, co-ordinator for the Anniversary, was all that is needed to know that he was most satisfied. Over asyear in the planning and promotion of the Anniversary Anniversary speaks well for those who were concerned that it be a success. Can we say more than congratulations for a job well done. While we are extending congratulations the efforts of the Clarke Constituents and the Citizens for a Safe Environment Environment brought Environment Week very much to the front in the Town of Newcastle over the past week. Visiting schools, planting trees and a clean-up were instrumental instrumental in bringing environmental issjues to the fore for all segments of the community and especially for the young public school age children. Helen MacDonald certainly spearheaded the attack with plenty of help from others. Its was an effort that benefits us all for which we should be appreciative. Again congratulations for a job well done. Success brings abuse Premier David Peterson is certainly learning that success, success, that which the province is having economically, does not necessarily bring ecolades but rather abuse. Certainly he is not favoured with with good words from other Premiers across the country or in some cases by members of the manufacturing world. Ontario's "overheated" economy is being blamed for rising interest rates which it is stated is bringing a down-side to other parts of the country as far as their ecominies are concerned. concerned. Just how much of this overheating can be attributed to the Ontario Liberals and theirJeadei could well be debated. Certainly the liberals and Petertson can accept some of the credit but its the buying public that stimulates purchasing, profits and success for any particular area. It just happens that those things produced in Ontario are in demand. No doubt Peterson and his crew could turn the tap down some but at what risk to his own people and their Own creditability. The Peterson government is making a stab at reducing the provincial debt which should catch the acclaim of most manufacturers and industrialists. The Ontario dffort percentage percentage wise and in dollars outdistances that of the efforts of the federal government. In fact it has been stated if the federal - government wish to turn-down the' heat in Ontario they could so and that, in fact, the feds are responsible for any fiscal mix. Peterson is just going to have to weather it out and after all its Ontarioians that will either return him or reject him in the next election. The other premiers are just mouthing abuses and in Peterson's case one might call it sour grapes. KENDAL . NEWS Lord, I look up to you, up to heaven, where you rule. As the* servant depends on his master, and the maid depends on her mistress, , So we keep looking to you, Lord our God, until you have mercy on us. Psalm 123 (the first half) This psalm was sung by Steven and Andrew Hellebust at our "Heritage Service" on Sunday, as they accompanied themselves on piano and guitar. Steven said the wor'ds were very old, but the tune was very new, as he had composed it. It certainly had wonderful rhythm. We are very proud of the musical ability of these two young University lads. They have grown up in our church and help us to cau l 1 a vision of the future that the "minister spoke of in his sermon. 1 ' Our Heritage Service began as the people gathered; Mrs, Helen Wood played beautiful music on the old organ that you pedalled with your feet. When I was young Wes Patterson Patterson was the organist a man didn't mind using his feet. Then Mrs. Jas Swarbrick (Polly) pumped it with her féet to lead the singing. But Mrs. Alva Swarbrick always played the piano till 1955 when Mrs. J. S. McLean presented us with the beautiful Electric'Hammond Organ boy. A beautiful Heritage cake made and decorated by Helen Wood was enjoyed by all on Sunday. Sunday. Our choir led by our two organists Mrs. Fern Foster and Mrs. Helen Wood playing in unison sang the anthem "I know who holds tomorrow and I know who holds my hand." Our first hymn was, "What a friend we have in Jesus", a truly local hymn for the author Josephy i.Scriven taught the Pengalley r children in Port. Hope and preached on the street corner on Saturday night in Port Hope. He wrote this hymn in menl or y °f his mother. He is buried at P' ce Lake. The flowers in the church were in memory of Mrs- Jennie Hoy who passed away 41 years ago on June 5, 1947, placed there by Helen Wood in memory of her mother. She left a family of nine children and eight of them were at the Heritage Service on Sunday. Duet: Steven and Andrew Andrew Hellebust. The scripture reading was 1 Samuel 16: 14-23. 2 Cor. 4: 13-51. Mark 3: 20-35. Sermon: Sermon: "A House Created by the Spirit of Christ." - Rev. B. Ransom spoke of the Vision Vision the builders of this church had of a place to meet, to study God's word of fellowship together, and of tne vision we must nave. There was well over a hundred,at this service. Chairs had to be brought in to seat the people. Of the Archer family of five there are just two left; the oldest Rowena and the youngest Dick. Dick was there. I hadn't seen him since he attended McLean's School. Rowena didn't feel just well enough but her daughter Lois Sherry came from Port Hope with Dick. Lenora (Cornish) Thurston, Bob- caygeon was there. She grew-up on the Sixth Line, Ray Cornish and his wife of Port Hope were there. Ed Ruthven another Sixth Liner was there with Emma Ruthven, from Port Hope. Bill Darlington of Kingston always enjoys returning to Kendal Church where he attended as a boy. Then he went away to teach school, returned to keep a store in Kendal and now lives retired in Kingston where his sons run a hardware. We are always glad to have Irene Dunbar Dunbar of Peterborough and her brother Alfred Elliott of Toronto with us. Wilma (Carson) Scott of Newcastle Newcastle with her husband was with us. She used to sing in duets as a Kendal Kendal Choir girl. She loves to talk with former schoolmates. . This is just a few of the over eighty names in the guest book. It was indeed a day to be remembered. Congratulations to Mr. and Mrs. Robert Morton of the Sixth Line who celebrated their 40th Wedding Anniversary recently. If you think "old soldiers just fade away" try putting on your old uniform. The wedding of Shelley Cathcart, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Cathcart of Coyne, Ontario took place in Denbeigh United Church on Saturday, June 4th at 2:00 p.m. to David Irive. The reception was held in Flinton Community Centre at 6:00 p.m. and the wedding dance at 8:00 p.m. The three Kendal families attending attending were Mr. and Mrs. Don Cathcart, Mr. and Mrs. Bruce Cathcart and Mr. and Mrs. Doug Cathcart and children. Mrs. Sadie Buchanan of Northbrook, Mr. and Mrs. Gibson (Jean) of Oshawa, and Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Cathcart of Toronto were there. Then on Sunday Sunday the Cathcart clan held a family reunion. Sorry to hear of the sudden death of Grant Thertell, as the result of a heart attack. He grew up and received his education at McLean's School north of Kendal. Sympathy , is extended to the family. On May the 30th our warmest day in May, 98°F, I took my mail to , Orono and on to Bowman ville. There 1 bought some milk and a pound of butter. I put it in the back of the car and visited my brother and a couple of ladies I often visit. When I reached home'about three, the butter wasn't a bit like "molasses in January" in fact it was like ' 'molasses in May' ' already to run away. It reminded me of the difficulties our grandmothers and , aunts had in making and caring for their butter before refrigeration. Even the breed of cows made a difference difference to the firmness and flavour of the butter. Jersey cream made the firmest and best flavoured but- . ter. Each farmer usually kept one Jersey cow in his herd for that reason. My uncle Charlie Tamblyn kept a herd of Jersey cows and my aunt Susanna sold her butter to certain certain ladies in Bowmanville for many years, one of them was Mrs. D. B. Simpson the lawyer's wife. Every Saturday when I was small we delivered, with the horse and •buggy, to these customers, this fine, firm, Jersey butter. Butter making is an art, and women took great pride in having fine flavoured butter. Special care must be taken of the cream. Utensils Utensils must be clean. After separating, the cream must be cooled. Then it must be kept in a cool cellar. Finally it must be warmed before churning. , Creameries must do this also. Mr. H. Good of the Orono Creamery decided to exhibit his butter at the Toronto Exhibition. So he asked Mrs. Wes Elliott to save her cream for him to make the butter. He won First Prize, then the following year he won the red ribbon ribbon again. This advertised Orono butter, far and wide, as the very .finest in Ontario. My mother used to sing a song: "My butter is so yellow He who get me for a wife Will be a lucky fellow." One of the causes of sour butter is that women did not mix all the buttermilk out of the butter. Storekeepers usually accepted every lady's butter in order to keep her trade. One storekeeper took the butter from a lady with a large family and told his clerk to put it at St. Saviour's Anglican Church MILL STREET ORONO; ONTARIO SUNDAY SERVICE and CHURCH SERVICE 9:30 a.m. ORONO GATES OF PRAISE BIBLE MINISTRY 5414 Main Street Orono, Ontario In ter-Faith Full Gospel SERVICE 11:00'A.M.
