Collect 68 Prizes (Continued) Naturally, Mrs. Skerratt is thrilled and delighted with her accomplishments and many a- wards for her talent; but, she emphatically maintains that if it were not for the support, pa- tience and kind co-operation of her family friends and neigh- bours, who during the past years have worked so untiring- ly to find the necessary materi- als; designs; hunting for spe- cial equipment, etc., to enable her to carry out her ideas, she would not have been able to a- chieve such wonderful results. One of her most unique and outstanding exhibits this year was the splendid Christmas Mantle Decoration which took first prize in the Arts and No- velties Class. This exhibit re- presented a Church Organ with the organist presiding at the organ, surounded by Choristers designed in minute detail with an artistic Church Window in the background, featuring the golden pipes and candelabra, which showed outstanding skill- manship and talented ability. Everything is not all sun- Skerratt can confirm, as there are many hours of frustration and planning entailed to com- plete the many different arti- cles that she exhibits from time to time. One of her most heartbreaking experiences hap- pened a few years ago at the Markham Fair when her prize quilt was stolen. This beauti- ful piece of workmanship was called the Paisley Quilt and was one of the most authentic and accurate designs which she had ever made. In fact it won the p ; | health and be spared to enjoy shine in this hobby, as Mrs. was shown from coast to coast in the various T. Eaton Store Branches across Canada through her courteous gener- osity. Mrs. Skerratt still liopes and prays that the per- sons responsible for this des- picable act will repent and re- turn this quilt to her as it was her most treasured possession. During the years, through the wonderful help of her son, Ken, she has been able to exhibit at many Fall Fairs which include Orono; Blackstock; Lindsay; Peterborough; Oshawa; Cooks- town; Beaverton; Woodbridge; Sutton; Aurora and of course the Canadian' National. It is interesting to note that again this year Mrs. Skerratt brought laurels to this commun- ity by winning three prizes and four Honorable Mention awards from the C.N.E. Mrs. Skerratt and her family which includes her younger son Larry, is a living example of what can be accomplished through "togetherness" faith, hope and prayer and the loving kindness of relatives & friends. May she steadily improve in her hobby for many years to come., LAWN BOWLING Monday was ladies day at the local club and all greens were filled with ambitious bowlers vieing for the four prizes.

House League Champs Were Decided This Week At Park The Port Perry and District Minor Softball Assoc. wound up another great Softball Season the past week when the Champ- ions of the various House Lea- gues were decided. In the Squirt House League Murray Lee's Greenbank Squirts won out over a good Cartwright team three games to one. This marks the second year in a row that Greenbank have won the Squirt Championship. The Cartwright team ended the schedule in first place only to lose out to a more experienced team. Grant Campbell and Harley Jackson did a fine job with this team and these boys will be heard from next year. In the Pee Wee House League' Greenbank came out the Cham- pions as they defeated a stub- born Prince Albert team in the fifth game after each team had one win and a tie. Gerry Hun- ter coached the Greenbank boys to a first place finish and then the championship. Roy Hope & Merv Pugh did a fine job with the Prince Albert boys who were out of ball last year. In the Girls Playoff Scugog Island won the Championship over a battling Speciallette team from Port Perry in the fifth game of the series. This game was a real hair raiser with the Island winning in the Bottom of the seventh. Don Ashbridge and Tom Eden coached the Island Girls to their first Championship after a good season of softball. The Port Perry girls who were last year's Champs played fine ball all season and really put up a battle on Monday night. Jim Rider and Annabelle Harrison built themselves an- other fine team this year and were only one out from the Championship, Greenbank Bantams made it three championships for 1965 softball season that went back to this small softball centre. They defeated Port Perry Rahm's in 2 straight games. Local fans should note that all four trophies have gone out of Port Perry which is very en- couraging to the district teams.
