Lots of local pet owners took advantage of the clinic, which allows them to get their pets' boosters at a reduced price. Seniors' Tea a terrific time What is so rare as a day in June? June brings buttercups and roses, and fills the chil- dren's hands with posies! A Joyous Occasion The Blackstock High School Musical program held on Tues- day afternoon was most enjoya- ble! Principle Leo True and Mu- sical Director John Beirness, also the student pianist Kate Mairs are to be warmly congrat- ulated - they were excellent! Also the tasty refreshments added much as well! We look for- ward to another fine musical in the near future! Sad Adieu After a few weeks in Canada visiting relatives and friends our dear friend Christina Hen- derson has now returned home to her beloved Edinburgh, Scot- land. We shall miss her so very much! While here daughter Chris hosted a lovely luncheon for her mother with friends as guests, and we also took her to Cadmus Country Club for a spe- cial luncheon! ' Nestleton United Church On Sunday, June 4, with Kate Mairs playing the Prelude - a good attendance at Service with Yvonne Priebe the greeter at the door. Rev. David Shearman just back from Bay of Quinte Confer- ence was in good form. The vocal duet by Regenia Walker and Shirley Jackson was good singing with joy - "What a Wonderful World" with Carol Mairs at the piano. Le ali = Nestleton Mabel Cawker Holy Communion was ob- served with Rev. Shearman in charge assisted by Elders Ar- thur Weir and Arnold Williams. The minister spoke on "The Day of Pentecost" a festival oc- curring sometime after Easter. Carol Hill was the reader. Offering taken by Yvonne Priebe and Carol Hill.

To A Friend Thereisn't anybody else, With whom I feel at ease, With whom I chatter when I like, Stay silent when I please, And so there isn't anyone, With whom I'd rather spend, My time, you see, because to me, You're just the perfect friend! (Unknown) Success - A Concerned Per- son - How to Live! Let each day's work have the best possible preparation, Enthusiasm is the secret of any- thing! Review the good - and discard the bad. Think positively! Learn from our successors! Have a goal, then enthusiasm will be aroused! Have faith - faith in yourself and others. Put somethinginto life. Help others to grow. Ignorance - indifference and in- effectiveness leads to failure. Long days and sleepless nights for success! (Author Unknown) Nestleton Presbyterian Church Rev. Wm. Fairley conducted the regular morning service at 11 a.m. in Nestleton Presbyteri- an Church. Joyce Taylor was or- ganist and ushers were Graham Ham and Oliver Rohrer. Sun- day School was taught by Shir- ley Scott. The résponsive Psalm was #145 and Scripture readings were from Job 14 and John 14; 1-15. The flowers were in loving memory of the late Bertha McLaughlin. In the sermon, Rev. Fairley spoke of Pentecost Sunday. YY SS SOA Church anniversary made for great day Well done! to the Sunday School children and teens, su- perintendent Janice Lee, teach- ers and helpers for a great 99th Anniversary Church Service on Sunday. There was face paint- ing before church for the chil- dren and then during the ser- vice the Sunday School children (and teachers) provided special music. The Senior Teen Class had a puppet show "If I Were A Butterfly," and of course our special guests Kelsey and So So the Clown. Kelsey read the scripture and So So had a fun story for the children and with the help of Ashleigh Postill and Travis Till proved that "Chil- dren Are Special." So So then "had a talk with the adults and she told us of the lesson her sons taught her, to do what she had told them one day while plant- ing a flower garden, not to be so busy that you can't take time to stop and smell the flowers. Next Sunday, church services at Greenbank and Seagrave are withdrawn so our congregation may join with Pinedale for their Sunday School Anniversary at 1l1a.m. The U.C.W.

Our sympathy to those he leaves to mourn, also to the driver of the gravel truck who fortunately wasn't serious- ly injured but will have this to deal with, even if he wasn't at fault. On the weekend of May 27 and 28, the Greenbank Hillbil- lys and the Orioles participated in a lob ball tournament in Sea- grave. These two teams made it to the final game on Sunday but because of "inclimate weather they called the game off and de- cided to ¢ontribute the winnings. to the picnic shelter. Way to go team.
