There seemed to be items for everyone. Some expressed their opinions as a very enjoyable time. Even, the shower did not delay the proceedings when all moved inside. Next year will be their 10th anniversary so the ladies, auctioneer (Murrary Jackson) residents and summer visitors are looking forward to something out- standing. On Saturday, Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Samells enjoyed a family picnic in Parry Sound when about 200 of Camie's relatives gathered from as far away as British Columbia. Well, the flagnappers have been at it again and made a second call at one home. We just wonder what is their purpose. One of these days, they'll try it once too often. Linda and Bill Samells with friends spent the week end at the Samells cottage at Gull Lake. On Sunday there was a very enjoyable service at the Island United Church when a string quartette accompanied on piano and organ played many selections and accompanied the hymns with their lovely music. We certainly appreciate their extra time closed. We thank those who have sent their August donations in already. Miss Beatrice McLean conducted the Service based on "The Courage of Con- viction and Consecration" and described the times that Jesus showed great courage. Courage calls forth the best in a person. Miss McLean now has an office phone at Manchester and you can make contacts with her on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 985-8779 without calling long distance. At other times she may be reached at 1-683-3787. Miss McLean has made visits at the hospital and nursing home and eventually hopes to contact Island residents. Rev. Chas.
