Shown above are the members of the Community Council,
Adastral Park for 1971. The members, elected by the occupants
of CFB Clinton housing area, perform the usual duties of a
regular town or village council. This council will remain in office
until the Base closes. The first Adastral Park council was elected
At the December meeting of
the Huron Central Agriculture
Society it was decided to have a
banquet before the annual
meeting in January. A
committee of James Snell,
president, Harold Lobb, Eric
Switzer and Frank Falconer was
formed. The committee will
meet at the home of Harold
Lobb and it was decided to hold
the annual banquet in Clinton
Legion Hall Friday, January 8 at
7 p.m.
The ladies are given a free
dinner in appreciation for their
help at the fairs. Since the ladies
took over the lunch counter
eight years ago at the fair, it
never looked back.
"WHENCE THE SPRAY?"
"P—s—s—s—s—s—s". Aerosol
sprays have become an accepted
part of today's lifestyle, simply
because they spell convenience.
And convenience is the name of
the game. The list of sprays is
endless and varied ... starch, air
freshener, paint, dessert topping,
hair-fix, shaving foam, etc. etc.
The praises of aerosols are
sung every day via radio, TV and
newspapers. But the real hero of
modern sprays is unsung. It's a
spirited gas made by combining
two chemicals manufactured by
Canadian Industries Limited.
Without it, the contents would
never leave the can.
This modest, hard-working
gremlin is hidden inside the cap,
waiting for the quick shake that
turns it into a . powerful
propellent . . the push behind
the "P—s—s—s—s".
We are expecting 100 to be at
the banquet. There is a
possibility that we can be a Class
B fair in the near future then our
grants will be higher.
There has to be a united
effort and a lot of hard work if
we are going to keep Clinton fair
growing every year.

UCW meets
A prayer for Christmas was a Court Whist followed the
fitting opening for the Christmas business period and a dainty
meeting of Ontario St. U.C.W. Christmas lunch was served by
Evening Unit held December 15. Nancy Holmes and her group.
Lois Elliott took the
devotions assisted by Edna Cox
and Elva Wiltse, The Christmas
story as found in Matthew of the
New English Version and the
passage in Luke from the King.
James Version was read. Carols
were sung and a prayer and
poem entitled "Christmas is
Remembering" was given by
Lois Elliott.
The Explorer Girls sang some
much-enjoyed Christmas Songs
under the direction of Miss Olive
Johnston.
The Minutes and Treasurers
Report, which included a
successful Bazaar report, were
read. Roll call showed 22 home
calls and 32 hospital calls. It was
decided to leave the small groups
as they are for 1971.
If the family snapshots are pil-
ing up around your home, why
net try hanging some pictures
from the ceiling as a photo,
mobile?
A mobile is a creative-looking
construction in which cut and
shaped photos are suspended in
mid-air by a heavy thread at-
tached to a stiffly-shaped wire,
which is itself attached to the
ceiling.
The best mobile pictures can
break all the rules of good photog-
raphy. Blurred color shots can
make fascinating floating ab-
stracts. Uninteresting black-and-
whites take on new dimensions
when cut into odd shapes or folded
to make a cube. Completely un-
related shots can be grouped by
color, shape, or pattern into an
eye-catching mobile.
Making a photo-mobile is a
fascinating project for you or for
the children. You can at last do
something about that awkward
corner in the house. The kids can
decorate their bedrooms in the
most personal way possible —
with pictures of their friends and
activities.
Heres how to go about it:
You might start With a simple
design, such as a circle. Using the
rims of various size drinking
glasses, draw circles on the back
of the pictures you've selected.
Hold each picture up to the light
to see exactly what portion of it
you are including. If you draw
the circle lightly, you can erase
it to correct any mistakes with-
out marring the front of the
print.
Then cut the circles carefully
and pair them up. Cut two or
three-foot lengths of thread for
each pair of circles. Use rubber
cement to glue the pairs together
back to back,' making sure that
one end of each length of thread
is inserted first.
Any excess cement can be
rubbed off with a finger after it
has dried. Finally, run a marking
pen along the rough edges to give
the picture-circles a finished look.
The completed photo-units can
then be attached to a wire clothes
hanger that can be bent into any
desired shape. Varying lengths of
thread used in different combina-
tions will provide hours of possi-
bilities.
Your imagination and that of
the children are the only, limits
to the creative things you can do
with photo-mobiles.
Once youve helped the kids get
started, let them fly with new and
better designs of their own. If
they want to try three-dimen-
sional shapes, suggest they ex-
periment first by making cubes or
cones from construction paper —
and then use the experimental
model as a pattern.
No mater what the shape or
complexity of the finished project,
photo-mobiles will add new life
to your picture-taking hobby and
new visual excitement to the decor
of your home.
