By Earl Lowes One of the big "rescue stories" in Ontario in 1982 was about Howard Barager, a rural school bus driver who recently rescued two babies from a house fire. One baby was three weeks old ; the other 10 months old. Barager was driving on a highway near the village of Maynooth when he saw a blazing house. He safely parked his school bus, with students in it, and ran to the home. The occupant, Mrs. Marion Watson, was outside and trying to push open a locked door. She yelled that her baby was on a bed just inside. It was later learned that Mrs. Watson, mother of six children ranging in ages from three weeks to 14 years, had gone out a rear door for a few minutes. When she tried to re-enter, flames and dense smoke barred the doorway. She ran to another door. It was locked. Barager put a shoulder to the door, smashed it open and was met by flames and smoke. The mother rushed in, grabbed her baby, Lisa, three weeks old, and ran outside. She then yelled that her other baby was in a crib near a window in another room. The woman grabbed a stick and broke the window glass. Barager put his arms through the open window and burned one hand on flaming window curtains. He lowered his hands; managed to find 10-month-old Melissa. He carefully lifted her by one leg and out the window. / The house and contents were destroyed. Barager took mother and babies to the school bus and drove them to a nearby home. They were placed in a pickup truck and driven by a neighbor to a village hospital for emergency treatment. Barager returned to his school bus and completed his bus run route. Farm families and others near Maynooth have high praise for Barager. He became known as a real hero.

GUYS AND GALS HAIR DESIGN Perm Special s 6 SUPER CUTS s 6 Children's Cuts (ages 1 to 12) • $4.00 28 Division St., Bowmanville 623-1341 Byline... By Peter Parrott Whoever coined the expression "sleep like a baby" either never had a baby or never had a sleep. From what I have experienced, it would appear as though babies are among the few creatures on this planet who do not sleep like babies. Instead, their three a.m. wakefulness is signalled by a wail which can make a fire siren sound like a whisper. From the information we have gleaned since the arrival of our little one, we discovered that babies cry for three main reasons: hunger, stomach aches, or wet diapers. But, then there is also the strange baby ailment called colic. It's a complaint which I have never heard successfully explained; I only know that it appears to be defined as a pain in the belly or some other disturbance of the plumbing. Most loud and uncontrollable crying seems to be blamed on this mysterious affliction. Only once have we ever read that babies sometimes cry just for the heck of it. But, I admire the frankness of the author who expressed this point of view. Sometimes, after three or four hours of missed sleep, the mind even fantasizes that young ones cry in a deliberate effort to manipulate parents and amuse themselves. How else do you explain the fact that a baby can sleep soundly in your arms, but open one wary eye the instant she is posed above the bassinette. The half opened eyes is an unspoken threat of the noise which will erupt if baby is transferred from the parental arms to the bed. Occasionally the baby will appear to be asleep while the parents tiptoe from the room with the lightness of a chorus of ballerinas. She'll give you just a few minutes to get settled in your own bed before shattering your confidence and the silence with a few well-placed shrieks. And then there are the times when baby falls asleep and stays that way until long past the usual feeding time. This brings parents anxiously to the side of her bed to make sure she is still all right. You can imagine her watching in amusement through half closed eyes and chuckling, no doubt. Strangely enough, the frustration and worry caused by a crying baby seems to disappear after the little one has finally nodded off. You have to depend on the fact that things will look better in the light of morning. And they always do. Perhaps this is the reason why babies, despite their uncivilized hours for sleeping, waking, and eating, command the centre of attention and affection. Perhaps this is what guarantees the survival of our species. Enniskillen News (Intended for last week) A beautiful wintery day brought forth our worshippers to the 4th Sunday of Advent Service on Sunday.

Hopkins will be with us. This is a part of Joe's Christmas Letter I would like to share with you. "One Solitary Life" He was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman. He grew up in still another village, where He worked in a carpenter shop until He was thirty. Then for three years He was an itinerant preacher. He never wrote a book. He never held an office. He never had a family or owned a house, He didn't go to college. He never visited a big city. He never travelled two hundred miles from the place where He was born. Nineteen centuries have come and gone, and to-day He is the central figure of the human race and the leader of mankind's progress. progress. All the armies that ever marched, all the navies that ever sailed, all the parliaments that ever sat, all the Kings that ever reigned, put to-gethe"r, have not affected the life of man of this earth as much as that One Solitary Life.
