My husband's family and

this. summer for their annual
sojourns at cottages north of
Goderich. One weekend we
took along an album of photos
from the first 'summer we
were married. (We• were

albums, one volume anyway).
Long time neighbours and
regular visitors got a hoot put
of beach scenes in which a
dashing teenager was a tiny
boy and a 13-year-old. a new
baby with sand all over her
mouth. This summer that
13-year-old has a niece the

kids can ask the darndest things. more
often. than not at the most inappropriate
times.
But their questions about the handicap-
ped were answered and encouraged. even
the awkward ones, last Wednesday night at
'the Seaforth Arena where a troupe of
travelling puppeteers put on a 'show
sponsored by the Ministry of Culture and -
Recreation called Kids on the Block.
There .were four puppeteers, all about

The handicapped often have moretrouble
coping vAth the myths and misconceptions
of others than they do

will persist and be passed ' on to future
generations if people shy away from asking
what's on their mind.
. So to nip this sort thing in the bud. the
children asked and the puppets answered.
