Brent Taylor of Coquitlam, B.C. is one of the High School Students on the Music Exchange with the Port Perry High School. While here, he is billetted with Alan Ferguson and will be spend- ing this week here. Alan also met Donna Masson who is his cousin. Donna did not realize she has relatives in this area so she was very surprised. Blackstock Women's Institute The Blackstock Women's Institute met on Feb. 25th in the Town Hall at 1 p.m. with most members and a few visitors present. After sing- ing the Women's Institute Grace, Mrs. Adams group served a tasty lunch of muffins, cheese, and honey which was in keeping with Mr. Sharpe's address on "Honey". The Ode was sung and the Collect repeated in unison after which Mrs. Sleep intro- duced Mr. Sharpe from Caesarea. She said Mr. Sharpe came from England and 'had kept bees in both England and Canada. He has lectured about bees in 129 schools in the Durham Region and is known in the community as the "Bee Man". Mr. Sharpe had made a film on his bees which he showed as he told us many interesting facts about them. We learned how they were transported in boxes; their wings wetted before taking them out so they couldn't get away; that the Queen never stings or she will die and then the whole hive dies; how the guard bees guard the hive; about swarming and feeding and many other things. Mr. Sharpe empha- sized honey as an excellent food and answered many questions, and said that the bee is a very knowledgeable insect, that he had been working with for thirty years and he feels he has just scratched the surface in knowledge about them. Mrs. Adams thanked Mr. Sharpe for his fine address and presented him with a gift of appreciation. The Business meeting consisted of the minutes and the treasurer's reports being read and approved. An announcement was made to cater to the Lion's Club occasionally. An announce- ment was made of a Work- shop on Quilting at Maple Grove on March 18 and 19, also another announcement of a Farm Safety Meeting at Bowmanville Agricultural Office on Feb. 25th with a request that each branch send a delegate. Mrs. Sam- ells read the Federated Women's Institute of Ontario President's letter and also thank you letters from the Hospital Friendly Visitors and two 4-H members. The Officer's conference is at Waterloo on May 5. 6, and 7th and we hope to send a delegate. It was moved and carried that we make a donation to the 0.N.O. Club for the use of their dishes in the Recreat- ion Center. The Roll Call - "A food habit I should change' - was well answered. Mrs. Stand- ford Van Camp dealt with the motto, "To diet or not to diet, that is the question." She gave us some fine hints on good diets. Seagrave news by Jackie Boyle Spectator tennis was alive and well and living in the hearts of some of our local tennis enthusiasts this past week, thanks to T.V. Len and Betty Somerville "rallied" to the occasion by attending the Molson Chal- lenge Tennis Tournament Final held in Toronto on Sunday. Participant sports were equally very much alive in Seagrave this past weekend. A successful scout camp was reported to have taken place, with weather conditions in their favour. Congratu- lations to all who participat- ed and to the 2 Seagrave patrols who were awarded trophies. Many enjoyed a dance Saturday night in Port Perry sponsored by the Group Committee. Thank you to the Seagrave Store and to all the other merchants who donated door prizes. Sunday night's hockey game between Mariposa and Pleasant Point ended in a tie. Hans Buscher deserves an honourable mention in scoring one of the goals for Mariposa. It seems this was Hans' first goal in living memory of many of his teammates!
