Lions' guest gave a very informative talk on Canada Customs By Albert Putsey Caesarea News Blackstock Lions We had a wonderful evening last Wednesday which was ladies night. Good roast beef dinner with all the trimmings plus a very informative address by guest speaker Shannon Roehrig. The topic was on customs at our Toronto International Airport. We were informed of all the different types of gadgets they have that you can't sense, see, or feel which helps them detect hidden contrabands. Their beagle dogs which travel through the crowd sniffing out that which shouldn't be there. Also as a point of interest it has become a little more difficult to enter U.S.A. than it was 10 years ago. They want to see your passport in most cases.

The Hawk The other day I was in my solarium writing when there was a loud bang at the other end. I went and had a look and there laying on its back, in the snow, was a beautiful large hawk. By the bang I thought he was dead so | went for a bag and reached down to pick him up and at this point he came to and decided to take off. | think I was more scared than he was.
