spring council meeting in Southport, when the speaker, • Mr Paul Whittaker, received a standing ovation at the end of his speech, which was interest­ ing and often hilarious. He told his audience he had been profoundly.deaf since an early age and how his mother strug­ gled to find someone to teach him the piano. He is now involved in many aspects of music and is an inspiration to anyone with a.problem to: overcome. Members were advised


there will be a field walk on May 15th and a garden party at the president’s home in June. Also in June there will be a trip to Levens Hall. An invitation by Knowle Green WI was accepted by several members to attend a fashion show at the De Tabley, in Ribchester, in May.'

cil’s Countryside Service is therefore asking dog owners to take care over the next few months. Most people are aware


that dogs should always be kept on a lead over fields with livestock and in partic­ ular lambs. What is less well known is th a t dogs off the lead, even when under the owner’s close control, can cause pregnant ewes to lose, their unborn lambs. Ground nesting birds ate also easily disturbed but are not always easy tospot. You can help by: • Keeping your dog on a


lead. • Not disturbing any live-1


stock. • Remaining on the way-'
