A couple of weeks ago we gave the names of three World War | veterans but failed to mention the fourth, Mr. Wm. Pearson Sr. who because of poor health is not away from home much, We apologize to Mr. Pearson for that omission. On Saturday night Nov. 2nd our newly-weds 'Mr. and Mrs. Jack Short were honour- ed in the bride's home town of Cambray where a dance had been arranged by friends. During the evehing the bride and groom were -presented with a swivel rocker and a --large mirror. The Short fam- ilies from here were guests on that occasion and took along other gifts. Seagrave turkey dinner is over for another year. In spite of a windy rainy night, attend- ance was good but some of the usual Toronto visitors failed to appear. There was plenty of everything including food, help and even light. Unit 1 U.A.W. had a success- ful sale of shall articles, and Unit 2 sold Christmas cake and an autograph quilt which was purchased by a Port Perry lady. who apparently. wants to remember the old home church. The same sick people are still in hospital. Mr! Aubrey Moon was at home for a few days but had to return on Monday for further treatment. Mr. Clarence O'Neill expects to be released soon. In addition there are two small patients, little Joanne Nobbs and the tiny Switzer baby, both of whom are in the Sick Child- ren's Hospital in Toronto. We wish them well. Visiting at the Otto's after the turkey. dinner on Wed: were Mr. and Mrs. Wib. Miller, Mr. and Mrs. Russell Wicks and Mr. and Mrs. Ernie Jones, all from: Oshawa. During the week-end Mr. and. Mrs. Verne Feir of Uxbridge, Mr. and Mrs. Hec. Otto of Levack and Mr. and Mrs. Newt.

Mr. and Mrs. Grant Butt and family of Whitby also spent the afternoon at the Butt home. While exploring their new home (the F. Watson place) Mr. and Mrs. Don Hunter discovered some S.S. helps dated 1886. They were Comp- rehensive Quarterlies printed by the David C. Cook Pub. Co. of Elgin, Ill. and consisted of 64 pages of small print which cost 3% cents each per quarter or 13 cents each per year. The same magazine with the same number of pages of larger print now costs $1.40 per year. One of these quarterlies bore the name Miss Mary Ann Munro who we persume was the late Mrs. John Mark, and the other apparently belonged to Jennie Munro. There was also a S.S. banner 1887 and a catalogue of small items dated about the same time. Services on Sunday were just what can be expected at the end of the anniversary season - quite ordinary. At S.S. no program, no birthdays NBC Newscaster Christmas Seal Chairman For '68 The National Honorary Christmas Seal Chairman for the 1968 Campaign is the tireless NBC Newscaster, Frank Blair, host of the "Today" show. Mr. Blair has been a TB-RD volunteer for many years, and has often found himself pinch- hitting for some unavoidably detained Christmas Seal spoke- man, or cajoled, at the last minute, into a suddenly avail- able radio or television .inter- view. Explaining why he was happy to accept the appoint- ment as 1968 National Honor- ary Christmas Seal Chairman, Frank said; | "When you are a news- caster, the realities of the world we live in are brought home with particular force. A newscaster is constantly focusing on man, his motiv- ations and his dreams. Yet there is a certain detachment that is fostered by reiteration, the "press of deadlines and - yes - even a bit of ennui. That's why I felt a particular renivigoration when I was asked to serve as Honorary Chairman. I~ was given the chance to recharge my bat- teries by getting out to the people with a message that I heartily endorse -- 'Use Christman Seals.....It's a Matter and only 65 present. of Life and Breath".
