CHIMO CLUB: Thirteen members of the Chimo Club went by bus from Schreiber to Terrace Bay where they were joined by other members, residing there, to visit and have dinner with residents in Birchwood Terrace. . The afternoon was spent largely in visiting, with an unexpected pleasure when Ed Cavanaugh read a poem he'd composed on Memories - recol- lections of earlier days of family life and old friends. Paddy Bourguignon recited the famous "Cremation of Sam McGee", saying he'd memoriz- ed it long ago, when he was an operator, alone for long hours, somewhere 'out on the line'. A tour of the craft room was also enjoyed with several purchases made and orders placed for the attractive articles made by the resi- dents. . When the group entered the dining room they were reluctant to eat, not wanting to spoil the wonderful buffet, in colour and arrangement of the many tempting dishes, resembling a still life, arranged and cooked by Chef Leon Theri- ault. Agnes Bryson, on behalf of the residents, told the visitors how much they'd appreciated the visit, and Helen Wallace, Chimo Club pres- ident, thanked Mrs. Nancy Wilson and her staff for their warm welcome and Chef Theriault and his staff for their courteous service.
