PAGE IO TERRACE BAY NEWS MAY 22, 1974 AN OPEN LETTER Dear Fellow Curlers: At the wind-up on May I8, when Mary Hale be -gan a citation of curling accomplishments, it slowly dawned on me then there was "something in the wind". After being called upon, I only expected some gimmick which would add to the fun usually associated with this annual event. But to be presented with a Life Membership caught me off guard so completely, I was only left with shattered emotions. It is -through this medium that I wish to express my heart- felt thanks which I was too overwhelmed to de- liver at that time, and now set down with a deep sense of gratitude towards my curling club and it's past and present members. 1 would be remiss in not paying tribute and grant equal recognition to my team mates with whose individual abilities it was possible to gain much recognition in capturing numerous titles over the years -- we brought them home with pride to, and on behalf of our club. My thanks go out to members of the Northwestern rink of Ann Latour, Ida Romanuk, Syl Duquette and Marj Hamilton. Also to those members with whom I have enjoyed sharing honors in winning various club events. All of which ultimately aided to my being one of two chosen in Ontario to represent Canada in a curling tour of Scot- land. A special thanks to Ollie Chapman as President, and her executive in which year this honor has been bestowed upon me. I appreciate all the good wishes that were so freely extended by all in the past and will always be proud of, and my long and happy ass- ociation with the Terrace Bay Curling Club. The beautiful framed scroll will be prominent- ly hung with equal pride in my new home in Kelowna. In sincere appreciation and very best wish- es for continued success in the future. To one and all, thank you. Peggy Wellings.

Eddy is the kind often described as "all boy" -- active, adventurous and inventive about ways to get into mischief. He needs parents who will appreciate his lively spontaneity and yet combine warmth and firmness. Eddy is a handsome boy, a little small for his eight years, with brown eyes, dark hair and medium complexion. He is in good health. : Last year Eddy was in a class for children with learning disabilities where he did well. This year he is in a regular Grade one-two class doing work at both levels. Eddy has had numerous tests, some of which indicate he is below average, but his teacher feels he is of average intelligence. Eddy likes to be outdoors. He loves competitive games and enjoys tobogganing, playing in water (or mud) and riding his bike. He plays hard and sometimes gets really dirty, but he also likes to be well-dressed and neat on occasions. Eddy needs parents who will have the time and desire to give him much individual attention. He does best with children either much younger or much older than himself. To inquire about adopting Eddy, please write to Today's Child, Ministry of Community and Social Services, Box 888, Station K, Toronto M4P 2H2. For general adoption information, please contact your loc Children's Aid Society. i AN ADVENTUROUS BOY Energy-user The average family car con- sumes about 6,000 pounds of pe- troleum products a year. uci a XS CL Be
