THE barrel literally ran dry when Clitheroe’s Join­ ers Arms opened its doors for the last time on


Sunday night. More than 150 regulars


and friends thronged the farewell party of the local in Whalley Road which Matthew Brown’s. Bre­ wery say is no longer viable to run. Landlord and landlady


David and Anne Cooper first ran out of mild beer . . . then bitter. At the


end of the night all that was left were a few pints of lager. On behalf of regulars,


Mr Walter Can-oil, of Kay Street, Clitheroe, pre­ sented the couple with a set of cut-glass wine glas­ ses and Mrs Cooper with a basket of flowers. Mr Cooper, who had


only come out of hospital on the previous day, took several rests during the evening, but counted it “a

Competing Swimmers set records in mini

THREE masseuses, an osteopath and a doctor will be standing by when 50 stalwarts of Clitheroe’s Lee Garter Health Studio in Castle Street take part in a mini-triathlon on Sunday.


The competitors —


aged between .15 and 57 — will tackle a 10 length swim at the Ribblesdale Pool, a 10 mile bicycle ride and a three mile jog. Staff at the Studio are


hoping that sponsorship money will total nearly £2,000. This will be di­ vided between Ribble Valley Disabled Action Group and Trinity Youth Club, for use in its weekly sessions with mentally handicapped children.


There will be a first


prize of a body massage for the winner and a sweatshirt for the collec­ tor of the most sponsor­ ship money!


For the others . . . there will be the chance of


a drink and a pizza pro­ vided by Miss Susan G r e e n h a lg h , . o f the Cygnet Cafe, Swan Cour­ tyard, Clitheroe.

Eggs galore! Just the way granny used to buy them


JEFF and Alana Hoyle are real good eggs so far as the 900 laying hens which supply their shop in Moor Lane, Clitheroe, are concerned. For last month they


took the unusual step of buying pullets to lay a good old-fashioned “ bam egg” in more natural sur­ roundings. The 900 hens live at


Healings Farm, Wadding- ton, where they receive a great deal of fuss and at­ tention from all the family. The step back in time


to the bam system has not been without its pit- falls, however. The design and planning of individual nest boxes was very im­


portant so as to ensure that the hens used them . . . and not the floor. The food — supplied by


a farmers’ co-operative, Preston Farmers — has to be of the very best quality and formulated in such a way as to provide the extra energy used in the hens’ everyday life. Eggs are not always


quite clean — straw and shavings stick to the shells from the inside of the nest box — but on the plus side the hens appear to be much more docile and content and are laying a very good per­ centage of eggs. The docile and inquisi­


tive nature of hens does cause amusement during


egg collecting time, as they tend to use the col­ lector as a perch. From the number of in­


quiries received from people wishing to purch­ ase “barn eggs,” they feel confident1 that they are in the “right bam.” Before reaching the


shop the eggs are very carefully candled. This is simply the process of shining a very strong light on to the shell so that any defects in the egg can be detected. The eggs are kept on


full view in the shop to enable customers to see exactly what they are buying before they are


boxed. The eggs are taken to


, the “ Chick-King” shop when only one day old to ensure freshness. They could be taken to the shop on the day they are laid, but the whites do not set immediately. A full range of other


poultry products are sold at the shop, including bar­ becued chicken, southern fried chicken, roast tur­ keys, steaks and drum­ sticks.


Success looks like being '


egg-shaped at the “Chick- King” shop and customers


■will have the added know­ ledge that there is a hap­ pier bunch of hens at the other end of the line. As far as Jeff and Alana


was the team from Sabden County and St Mary’s RC Schools. Moorland and Gisburn


were joint second with 38 points, and Waddington


(30). The Sabden boys’ team


won the Mallinson Memo­ rial Trophy, and Moor­ land girls’ team the Ros- sall Memorial Trophy. The trophies were pre­


sented by the Ribble Valley Mayor (Coun. Ber­ nard Thornton) seen in our picture with some of the contestants.

Ted Boden, of Chatburn, compared the heat-wave to the long hot summer of 1976. The hottest day of the

rain forecast early in the week missed Clitheroe and dropped in the Hel- lifield to Skipton area. As Ribble Valley Coun­

mission employees have been keeping a careful eye on their parched woodland. A spokesman said the


public were being very careful and it had not yet been necessary to restrict access. ' However, fire brigade


officials appealed to the public to take care wit! matches, picnic stoves anc fires while out in the countryside. Chemists report a boon
