GA IED EAR a lr Ain Jes in od 18 -- PORT PERRY STAR -- Wednesday, July 4th, 1973 LIA Lad Lisa oh Nestleton, Caesarea and area news On behalf of the people of our community, I wish to extend a warm welcome to our new neighbours, Mr. and Mrs. John E. Solvey and family. We trust that they shall enjoy living in our area as much as we do. The Solveys have recently moved into the old Norm Taylor farmhouse on 7A highway. The newly formed tops club in Caesarea has been officially named, the Cartwright TOPS club. In the first month of operation, the total weight loss was 621% lbs. The winner of the prize for the most lost lbs. in this period, is Mrs. Arnott of Caesarea. I have been requested not to divige the name of the lady that lost the least number of lbs. so I won't but it is tempting. Good luck for next month ladies. The Bowens of View Lake have sold their home and I moving to Lindsay. The new owners are Mr. and Mrs. Ernie Coulter of Oshawa. They take possession in early August. We wish the Bowens every happiness in their new home and bid the Coulters welcome. Congratulations are ex- tended to Mr. and Mrs. Ralph G. Raines of R.R. No. 2 Port Perry. Deb and Ralph each entered their reg. Apaloosas in a recent horse show and both were winners. This was their first entry and they are more than a little pleased with the results. Speaking of horses . . . on Wednesday, I was amazed - to see two of them on King St. in Oshawa at rush hour. Two scantily clad young girls with long blonde hair and bare feet were riding bareback. The two alit and tied their mounts to an improvised hitching post and crossed the street to obtain a refreshing drink. As they returned, an elderly man asked why they courageously rode in the downtown area on horses. One of the girls replied, "can you think of a nicer way to prevent pollution"? The old fellow had no answer . . . but a policeman certainly did. He told them to keep off of King Street with those horses in rush hour. As he slowly scratched his head, looking a little bewildered, he said to the old gentleman." I thought for a minute that Lady Godiva was at it again. On Saturday the Cart- wright Cub pack, had their last meeting of this season. A full day of activity had been planned for this event. The boys and their leaders, met in Caesarea and drove to the R. Collins mink farm for a tour of same, and each boy learned a little con- cerning- the raising of mink. The group then proceeded on foot through woods, over hills, under fences, to the Welts farm for a weiner roast and other delectable goodies. The softly falling rain never daunted the spirits of these young lads, but as they were starting to eat, a deluge forced them indoors. It is a good thing that the Welts family have a big house. The visitors on this outing were as follows, Mr. David Salmond, Regio- nal Service Team Captain, Scott Hammett, 87 Toronto PORT PERRY PASTORAL CHARGE The United Church of Canada SUNDAY, JULY 8th-- Union Services with St. John's Presbyterian Church will be held each Sunday through July at 10 a.m. Rev.
