You don't know what appliance week is? You're lucky, Appliance week is when everything goes wrong and needs a repairman....and last week was a real pip at our abode. First of all, it was the television. My husband is far from technically minded. He's a great carpenter, a pretty fair paperhanger, a good painter and a wonderful spring housecleaning assistant, but when it comes to things electrical, he's way outclassed. I kid you not when I tell you he has only recently learned to turn the aerial to our television set, That's right. He could turn the machine on when it was hockey time and off when the noise got on his nerves, but as far as adjusting anything, even the aerial, he just sat back and hollered for someone to come to his aid. That's why I didn't get excited when he bellowed the other night for someone to come to adjust the television. Usually our three-year-old runs in and stops the picture from flicking upwards or turns out the squigley lines, but it was late at night so someone else was needed. I didn't budge. Let him ekperiment a little, I thought. It wasn't long until my spouse was upstairs preparing for bed. "The television's shot," he stated. I Still wasn't'excited. I figured I'd go down in the morning, turn it on, adjust a few knobs and the set would be fine. I was wrong. The television was in need of repair so we summoned the fellow with the big suitcase full of expensive little tubes. Upon examination of the set, the repairman found it necessary to take the thing back to the shop....and since our TV is incorporated in a radio and record player combination, we lost everything for a few precious hours that really mattered to our children. The same day as the television broke down, my NOW FOR YOUR ENJOYMENT The CLOUD "NINE" ROOM At HOTEL CLINTON Featuring SING ALONG WITH JEAN At The Organ FRIDAY And SATURDAY, DIRECT FROM ITS LONG-RUN ROADSHOW ENGAGEMENTS! One Complete Show Starting At 8.00 par, washing machine began making strange churning noises. A quick sniff around the laundry told me something was getting warm. Just then, the machine ground to halt. I looked in. The water hadn't gone out during the spin cycle. I figured there must be something blocking the pump. Now if my husband was handy with things mechanical, I'd simply tell hith and he'd be able to put the machine back in working order. But knowing my husband and anything more complicated than a flashlight, I'd better call a serviceman. The serviceman I called must be a good one. He's booked up solid until the first of the week. While I was wringing out by hand the last of the washed and rinsed but still sopping wash, my three-year-old mechanical genius had a go at the clothes dryer. He discovered that if you turned the knob on the door just the right way, it would wind right off....and if you pushed the little screw into the door it would make a beautiful grinding sound as it threshed around in the machinery and it would An objective of $1,300.00 has been set for the Clinton Lions' Easter Seal campaign which extends from February 26 to March 29. The campaign is sponsored locally by the Lions Club in conjunction with the Ontario Society for Crippled Children. Clinton campaign chairman is A. Laurie Colquhoun. Over-all objective of the 1970 Ontario Easter Seal campaign is $1,600,000. One half of the funds raised will remain in the Clinton district for the direct assistance of needy local handicapped children. These funds enable the Lions to assist district children and their families in a great many ways, such as financial help in the purchase of artificial limbs or special equipment such as braces or wheelchairs, camping fees and transportation to and frpm camps or clinics. TI1 barlance of the funds raised here go directly to the Ontario Society for Crippled Children. There they are used to support handicapped youngsters in this province through one of Clinton Kinettes start busy year The Clinton Kinettes are off to a busy start this year. Eighteen Kinsmen and Kinettes travelled to the Goderich Psychiatric Hospital to entertain the patients there by organizing bingo and providing small prizes. They held a work party to mend sweaters worn by the Wee Wees, Squirts and Pee Wees, the minor hockey teams sponsored by the Kinsmen. The Club helped to organize the annual March of Dimes (Ability Fund) campaign; all Kinettes canvassed. Carnival Week was a busy one. On the Monday night Kinettes, working with other women's groups in town, helped to sponsor the successful bingo. The club operated a busy refreshment booth during the Snowmobile Races. They also entered a float in the carnival parade. The theme of the float a giant birthday cake, was the fiftieth anniversary of the founding of Kinsmen clubs. Couples from the club attended Golden Anniversary Celebrations held in Toronto and Listowel.

Clinton Lions have also sent excess funds to the London District Crippled Children's Treatment Centre, where local children receive treatment and therapy. The more than 14,000 handicapped children in Ontario also benefit from the society's continuing support of 18 treatment centres located throughout Ontario. Many of the children also attend one of the five summer camps owned and operated by the society. "These- children," said Mr. Colquhoun, "need our support. I hope and trust the Clinton District will prove generous in its support of the Easter Seal campaign."
