Many of this area residents phoned repair service...as per usual ...just to ask why. We were not informed that our service would be temporarily inter- rupted, as is their custom if we neglect to pay our phone bill. 'When I phoned repair service the girl informed me that I could not speak with anyone in charge as they would not be in that day. She said all personnel were out. When 1 became angry, she told me that a man would be out to see me. I remained homein vain. The next day, a young fellow came and said he had no idea as to what was going on. He was aloneand 1, of course, wondered how he could manage to rectify the " situation, for out phone wire was lying across the drive- way and other wires were draped along the roadside. He finally had Mr. Walter Welt's phone working, but our's is a private line and for a while he could not find the trouble. He went back down the road about a quarter of a mile and found that one pole had the wires frayed and broken from the way it was yanked from the ground. Today we have a telephone wire gayly draped through the birch tree and looped through the cedars. For this inconvenience we shall be allowed a five cent reduction on each monthly phone bill. I would not mind the inconven- ience if people that call in could reach me rather than ask why I do not answer the phone. Sometime it works and most of the time it does not, but then that is the way Bell Canada operates in our area, is it not? The beautifully decorated Caesarea Community Hall was the setting for a bridal shower recently. The lovely Miss Jane Brocklehurst of Richmond Hill shall become the bride of Mr. Tom Tenny- son, son of Mr. and Mrs. Norm Tennyson of Caesarea on August the sixteenth. To honour the bride-to-be, Mrs. Tennyson, Sue Fowler and Sandy Day, future in-laws of the guest of honour, hosted the shower. Approximately one hundred friends and relatives were in attendance. Following the opening of numerous lovely gifts, the nervous girl thanked all for their kindness. Luncheon was served and amid good wishes to Jane and Tom, the eventcameto a close. May I, on behalf of the community, extend a prayer for complete and lasting happiness to the future Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Tennyson. Well, folks, she finally did it! Marilyn Cooledge, wife of the Caesarea Market propri- etor, Gord Cooledge, has retired from store keeping. Marilyn has raised four children and worked in the store, also, and I, among others know that she most certainly deserves a change. Perhaps now she shall find time for the many things that keeping shop prevented her from doing. Maybe now her many friends will see a little more of Marilyn...we hope $0. Mr. and Mrs. Shelly Jack- son of Toronto own a cottage at Scugog Point. Each season this popular couple have members of the family visit with them through the summer, in the persons of Mrs. E. Jackson, mother of dl FE - A i hy Mr. Jackson, Mr. and Mrs. J. Tully, whom I presume is a sister of Mr. Jackson. Mrs. Jackson has informed me that this arrangement allows their children to enjoy sum- mer camp and in the same token the doting parents are then at liberty to completely relax. The children go to summer camp by" choice. Mr.and Mrs. Dick Simmons &children Debbie and David, spent a few days with the Jacksons and have now returned to their home in Rochester, New York. Marion and Jack Tully have left temporarily to attend a convention in .San Diago, California, for the National Food Distributors. Mrs. Jackson informed me that although the family live in Toronto, they look forward to summers at Scugog Point. We enjoy having them, also. Mrs. J. Fowler and Mrs. D. Day accompanied by their children enjoyed a visit to Fantasy Island and the Science Center last week. Sandy informed me that it is a shame that so many of the displays at the Center are damaged to the extent that they can not be enjoyed. The suggest that all children should visit Grand Island, N.Y. and spend the day enjoying Fantasy Island for it would be a day to be long remembered. Mr. and Mrs. E. Coulter and daughters of View L.ske have purchased property approximately thirty milu east of us. The Coulters purchased the former Judson home two years ago, at View Lake. Vivian said that the roads in the winter were too much to contend with especially when Ernie drives for Roadway Transport and when he had a trip at two or three a.m., he had to "book off" until the snow was removed. Which of course, the company does not toler- ate. We wish them content- ment in their new home and welcome the new owners. Many friends from Caesarea and area shall miss Ernie, Vivian and daughters. Many people spend count- less hours and dollars on their precious antiques. Is it not a piy that so many of our 'antique citizens" are depri- ved of the same love? The majority of them are...but. what about the lonely souls that no one seems to care about? I read something to that effect recently and found it leaves much room for thought. Perhaps youremember the "sweet" little skunk that I befriended three years ago. In the spring of 1973, he came to my door with a pleading look in his eyes...so I, idiot that I am, fed him corn, etc. This procedure happened in 1974 also. Eash spring he...or she... seemed to have grown a foot larger. Well....this spring we have a cat and her four kittens in a box in our garage and as long as that darn cat was in the box with her family, the skunk would merely glance at her and boldly eat her food. The other morning at four a.m. (which is her chosen hour each visit), I was awakened to a commotion in the garage and upon investigation discover- ed Mrs. Cat was not in her box with her little ones. I bid my X-friend a rather dubious, Hi There, while wondering what was about to happen if that cat decided it was Kitten feeding time before that huge critter of Nature had depart- ed. I did not have to wonder long. the skunk had his fill...the cat camé back and they met in the doorway. The cest is "stinking" history. My problem is...how does one de-friend a skunk without causing him to become annoyed, for his weapon is by far the superior of any I may possess. So much for friend- ship. If you decide to visit us in the next few days...please use the front entrance...you would not enjoy coming through the garage door...I assure you. My sincere and deepest prayer for recovery are offered on behalf of our son Rick, who had the misfortune to get his hand cut in the tire cutting machine at work two weeks ago. After seven hours of surgery to replace his thumb and repair four fingers, Rick, though in deep shock and suffering from the extensive loss of blood, sur- vived the operation and is recuperating, thank God. It shall be several weeks before the Doctors can determine whether he may have the use of the hand, for he did what they termed a perfect self amputation. Mr. and Mrs. J. Doyle and daughter accompanied by Mr. and Mrs. Lemaire are enjoying a holiday in the Bobcaygeon area. Following this trip, the Doyles and Mr. and Mrs. Hermanshall spend a few days in the Georgian Bay area. We trust that they have a safe and pleasant vacation. Prayers for a rapid recovery are also offered on behalf of Ann Herron who has not been enjoying the best of health for some time. Guests of Mr, and Mrs. Ben deJong and family of Nestle-. ton are Mr. and Mrs. K. Bosman of, Scheveningen, Holland, Mr. and Mrs. I Bosman of Steins, Holland, Miss Bosman of Ardenberg also from Holland. These friends are touring Ontario for a month or so, and we g trust that they return safely to their homes with many pleasant memories. May they have a safe journey. Another visitor of the Ben DeJong's is G. Jansen of Meppel. Just a thought..Do you greet each new day with a silent prayer of gratitude or a dull complaint??? "Whether or not selected as Liberal candidate in Durham North, | will urge Robert Nixon to see that Educational superintendents are super- vising only their area of competence. The roots of Ontario's unhappiness over education is the "complete lack of quality control and eccentric reporting of student achievement. If the people of Ontario can be distracted from forcing a debate on Education and Regional Government by a tax rebate, then we are too far -gone for Judy Lamarsh to help us.
