Happy birthday August 7 to Gord Orr. “Mr. Auctioneer". Happy birthday August 9 to Mrs. Phil Gilmour, Mrs. Marjory Mondorf. and Joan Scott. Congratulations, all! This week’s column is mostly "Bits & Pieces". I thrive on routine and this summer life of driving kids, answering their phone calls, and collecting scraps of news for this column little bit by little bit is getting to me. When the phone rings and someone says "It's for you, Mom†both they and I look lncredulous! Even a week at the cottage (and I’m no cot- tage lover) is beginning to look good. We did discuss travelling this summer but it turns out that the only one who really wants to go some- where is me. So it's off to the cottage. the sun and the sand. No telephone, anyway!

Mr. Raymond Burt. long- time resident of King, recent- ly travelled to England with his son Terrance where they rented a car and went on a tour which surely must have included every cathedral in the land. Highlight for them was hearing Thalben Ball. a famous organist play in the Temple Anglican Church in London. and listening to what Mr. Burt described as the “most wonderful choir". News is so scarce coming in during these summer months that I’ve even resort- ed to looking up last sum- mer's column to see what I wrote about. To make it worse, I KNOW the people of King must be doing some- thing. Surely you're not all asleep! Would anyone mind a summer rerun? Both father and son returned to King with colds 'but their trip was a great success. Sympathy is extended to the family and friends of David Patton who passed away. July 25 at King City Lodge.
