That's Red Merriman's job, and his way of' life. When he's not managing Clinton's Royal Bank, Red works hard to help his community and its people. He is vitally in- volved in local activities.

The Curriculum proposed by the Faculty was recommended to be approved. A report from the Conestoga College on Nursing Education was reviewed. Should an amalgamation of the present Schools of Nursing move into the Community College setting, possible sites would be the Doon. Guelph, and the Strat- ford Centres. This report was recommended to be tabled in order The School Board of Trustees . consider the position of the School regarding amalgamation. An analysis of the 1972 R.N. results and the problem area were discussed. The need for a School Counsellor was a priority need for .1973, was stated by the principal Miss M. Philpott. Regarding the maintenance of the school building, caulking of the complete building ex- terior is an imperative need, this will be done as soon as weather conditions permit. A social time which had a Christmas atmosphere was en- joyed when the Trustees joined the members of Faculty in the Games Room of the School. Of all the holidays of the year, there is probably none that brings such joy and an- ticipation as Christmas. It is also a time for reliving memories of past seasons through the sharing of good times and good food with family and friends. "From our home to yours" takes on the special warmth of the Yuletide Season when ac- companied by treasured recipes and baked goodies from your own kitchen, Whether you are sending them across the ocean or across the city, they need to be packed with special care for travelling. First of all you will need a heavy cardboard box or tin just large enough to allow for packing tightly without crowding. If you have a variety of cookies, place the heaviest ones on the bottom, Place two cookies together back to back, wrap and place in the box, Make right rows, taking care to place waxed paper between each pair of wrapped cookies and between the layers. Wrap each row in moistureproof paper or aluminum foil. To prevent the cookies from moving around in the box, sprinkle popcorn or cereal bet- ween any spaces. Place paper aerviettes between each layer and again on the top. Fill the box to within one-quarter of an inch of the top, close it and seal Eighteen members of the Huron County Medical Secretaries and their husbands attended the annual Christmas Party at the Commercial Hotel in Seaforth. All of the ladies were presented with corsages in the season's colours. A very tasty and well served dinner was very much enjoyed by all present. The President, Mrs. .Joyce Armstrong, of Zurich, then presided at the draw for the gifts donated by the various Doctors. Another snowmobile season is upon us and to emphasize the need for a Snowmobile Safety Week, December 10 - 16, 1972 the Ontario Safety League has already recorded one snowmobile fatality in Ontario. This first fatality of the new season has a familiar ring, "Snowmobile Collides with Motor Vehicle." There are encouraging in- dications that snowmobilers are beginning to realize the potential hazards of these powerful, little fun-machines. During the 1968-69 Ontario snowmobile season when less than 100,000 machines were in use, there were 30 fatal ac- cidents. Three years later, in the 1971-72 season, when nearly a quarter of a million snowmobiles were in operation in Ontario, the same number, 30, fatal snowmobile accidents J it firmly with tape. Be sure to label the box clearly and mark "Fragile, Handle with Care".. Since some cookies are not good travellers take care not to include any that require refrigeration, or have icings that are likely to melt in a warm place, for cookies that go travelling in style this Christmas the home economists of Agriculture Canada suggest that you try "Butter Twinkles", "Orange Butter Balls" and "Coconut Fruit Squares".

The only business discussed was the fact that meetings during January and February will be cancelled as usual due to the inclement weather usually present at these times. The next meeting of the Association will be held on Wednesday, March 7, 1973 in Goderich. Please be advised that the local dues of $5.00, will be due at this meeting. After the dinner most of the guests stayed for a very en- joyable festive evening. occurred, Why is the fatality rate im- proving in this ever-growing sport of snowmobiling? The 'Ontario Safety League claims that the snowmobile industry and snowmobilers, themselves, have been largely responsible for this better safety record in Ontario. The snowmobile manufacturers and distributors formed the Ontario Snowmobile Distributors Association three years ago ex- pressly for the purpose of promoting snowmobile safety. Their objectives have been carried out honestly and with commendable activity. Snowmobilers have formed hundreds of clubs in com- munities all across the province for the purpose of controlling snowmobile use, training operators and presenting a good image to the public. • Cut in rounds or other -shapes.
