{ 8 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, March 7, 1973 Nestleton, Caesarea and area news Bad Dream? A few days ago, friends of the Bud Trains of Caesarea decided to "drop" in for an evening. This you will agree, is the neighbourly thing to do, but . . via a bed room wall? Chris Train was asleep in the room and was unhurt by some miracle. Earlier in the evening, Chris had watched a movie about an earthquake and when the incident occurred, he as- sumed he was having a bad dream about the picture. This is fortunate, as the STORE WIDE 8 PIECE LIV/REC $ ROOM GROUP Sofa, 2 Chairs in Vinyl shock may have proven too much for one so young. Had he been aware of what was really happening, he would have been terrified. His bed was pushed three feet away from the wall by the impact. No one was hurt seriously, a few scrapes and bruises was the extent of injury, thank Heaven. Bud & Irene agree, and rightfully so, that a house can be replaced but a child cannot. Melody Train is suffering from a broken collar bone, the result of a misjudgement at Judo class. We hope the entire family is back to normal quickly.

In the a.m. we discussed style and lines. After a refreshing lunch the topic was colour and hats and did you know that the type of neck line you select on a blouse, dress, coat or whatever you are wearing, can make a difference to your overall appearance? Our fashion consultant allowed the ladies to try an array of colour swaths to determine the proper shade for individual face tone. This is something that none of us would have the courage to attempt while shopping for a garment at a shop, at least I wouldn't, although I have been tempted to do so many times. The day was one of interest and was also very informative. Interchurch The Women's Interchurch Council of Canada, met in the Presbyterian Church, Nestleton on Friday.
