have once again shown that for a small village their hearts are big and vision broad.
Fund-raising led by St John’s has in just over a week raised around £2,400.
Last week, just three days after the con cert which raised nearly £1,000, a meal hosted by Graam Bangla at the Punch Bowl attracted over 120 dinners and raised another £1,000. Finally at the Sun day service the con gregation was addressed by a rep resentative of Mary’s Meals, a charity working in Haiti, and the col lection taken topped the fund up to around £2,400.
Public meeting A public meeting was held on Monday to vote on the proposal as to whether the Aighton, Bailey and Chaigley Memorial Hall, in Hurst Green, should lease part of the car park for the use of a vil lage shop.
This process is required under the Charity Commis sion's directives when dealing with charitable assets

and change of use , under Charity Law.
The meeting was attended by 126 people and there were a number of challenges and thoughts which stimulated the debate. After ques tions to the chair man of the commit tee,
Kath
Molyneux, a secret ballot was taken as to whether the parish residents sup ported the shop pro posal and by a clear majority - 71 to 56- it was decided the community was not in favour of a village shop on the Memor ial Hall car park.
The committee thank everyone who tinned up and hope that the provision of a village shop will still be forthcoming in some other loca tion, as there is a clear demand for such a service from residents of Hurst Green.
The next meeting of the Memorial Hall committee will be Monday, February 15th, at 7-30 p.m, the meeting is open and all are invited to attend.
Filmclub The next meeting of the film club will be in St John’s Church hall on Monday at 7-30 p.m.
The film is “Blood Diamond” starring Leonardo DiCaprio. The story is set in war-torn Sierra Leone and raises the issue of diamonds mined and sold to finance conflict and make profits for businessmen whilst the country remains poor and people live in poverty. •
Entry is by donation .. r:

History group At the first lecture of the New Year of Ribchester Local History Society, Mrs Ann Ward gave a talk entitled “Food
and Rationing in the
Second World War”.
It was a fascinating occasion because it evoked so many memories from the audience’s own experiences, 70 or more years ago, and of a world that has changed beyond all
recognitiohsince then.
Ann had prepared her talk with great care and attention to detail.
She gave credit to the foresight of the Government of the day which had realised, from the events of 1919, the crucial importance of having adequate supplies of food for the civilian popula tion if imported food supplies were cut off by enemy action.
So the Ministry of Food was set up, under
Lord
Woolton, before hostilities began, so a system of rationing was ready to be implemented when war was declared in 1939.
Sensibly, rationing was only applied to items that that the Government felt could be supplied to every household.
Ann produced a ■ tableful of such
• items, and showed the quantity that an adult was allowed to ■ purchase each week.
Children, pregnant mothers and elderly people were given . special allowances.
By present-day stan dards, these quanti ties seem miniscule
