Bits and Bit By Helene Ballard Once again it's time to say Bon Jour to all our readers. I hope you are all happy to see the snow slowly melting away, just as long as we don't get any more. At this time I would like to say a few heart-felt thanks to some of our good friends, like the Ladies Auxiliary of the Communi- ty Church for their Easter table favours. They were very nice and did much to add to the feast of Easter. These very devoted ladies do so much to help brighten our holidays. Thank you ladies. Also thanks to the Ladies of the Anglican Church in Schreiber for their contributions to our Easter Sunday. These ladies, along with our Joann Leblanc, made love- ly chocolate Easter eggs, and they tasted as good as Several complaints were received last week regar- ding youngsters playing hockey on the roads in town. Road hockey players are reminded that they should move quickly out of the way to allow traffic to go by. Roads were intend- ed for vehicular traffic, not hockey. The warm weather this week has caused a number of problems and com- plaints. Hazardous condi- tions were created on Lakeview Drive with snow being thrown out on the road. Police called out the town crew and assisted in cleaning up the street. Residents should remember that the placing of snow on the road creates a hazard to pedestrians and traffic trying to use the roadway. If a mishap should take place, the par- ty responsible for placing the snow or ice on the road could be held responsible. It is also a violation of the Highway Traffic Act, Section 517, to deposit snow or ice on a roadway, the report added. they looked. Thank you ladies. As usual, our bridge playing friends were in on Wednesday to play cards with our residents. There were four tables and our residents enjoyed it. Thank you for your kindness. I heard 'through the grapevine that our Blanche Specks has had surgery and is coming along well. We wish her God speed and hope she will soon be home again. ; News is scance around here until nice spring weather comes. I .know here at Birchwood we are all anxious to be able to once more go for daily walks in the Park. Also for the men to be able to play horseshoes again; and we hope to be able to go on outings in our new bus. For now, though, I have a "Bite" and for this I would humbly ask our Reeve and Council if there is something that can be done about people with dogs, big and small, to please keep them tied up and this includes Simcoe Plaza. Now that the snow is melting, the mess of dog feces are both revolting and very unhealthy, and not at all a pleasure to try and side step this mess. I know there is a leash law, so why is it not enforced? If no other way - then, to all you folks who take your dog shopping, please leave Fido home. Then we can all breath easier. Thank you. Over heard in a record shop: Do you have a recor- ding of "Casey Jones" on the front side and "I wonder who's kissing her now" on the backside? Until next time, keep your Powder Dry. A number of Senior Kindergarten students from Schreiber Public School were amazed with a model of a human backbone on display at the Physiotherapy Depart- ment of McCausland Hospital in Terrace Bay.
