Thurs., Aug, 18, 1966-rXlinton 5 Television commercials are as entertaining as the programs.,, and twfiice -as1 fictional^ i I. suppose every woman dreams of being lovely. It is also possible that husbands dream of waking some morning to find their wives have become raving beauties. Isn’t fit lucky for both husbands and wives that love has a way of making the loved .and the lover hand­ some in the eyes of the other? That’s the reason I get such a -charge out of the TV com­ mercials that, promise the im­ possible, Face soap advertise­ ments are the classics. Most of these feature a strik­ ing model who would be a standout even if she: wore a. bran sack and a pair of dirty sneakers. Lithe 'and lucious, this doll has a face that demands your .attention; the complexion ... I find consolation in this thought fhom Richard Needham’s col­ umn in the Globe and Mail: Some women 'are born chic and tihin. Others, surrounded, by !?al- ories, have to be satisfied with love and a life of happiness. >--------—-------Q-—........... Correction! Mrs. Leroy Poth, Bayfield, reports an error fin last week’s News-Record Story concerning ‘th® Bayfield Historical Society. Mrs. Both' showed a picture of the SS Malta, which had, been wrecked (in Lake Huron, not “The Matilda” as the story im­ plied. Letter to the Editor News-Record, Clinton, Ont. Dear Editor: Having read with much in­ terest "Lucy’s” ramblings con­ cerning the History of Salt in diinton Area, I felt prompted to write a few lines, explaining a few forgotten facts. McGarva’s Salt Works may have started production, in 1870, but the Stapleton Salt Works produced and sold their first salt on the 18th of August 1868. Mr. Henry Ransford, in his very interesting diary, teffills of his coming to the Huron Tract . in 1832, (one year after Jonas Gibbings who was the first set­ tler, where Clinton ndw is,) where he (Mir. Ransford) pur-, chased 3,400 acres of land1 from the Canada Company. He built the house which is now owned by Mrs. Willis in 1833 and lived there until 1840, when he left "Stapleton”, as he named the property after his father’s home in England1, and moved to an­ other property near Goderich. He left the Stapleton property in the hands of a Mr. Gasman. In 1846 'the Ransfordis moved back to England with their eight children. Quoting from Henry Hans­ ford’s Diary. "Siaillt had been found at Goderich. Hoping to strike oil, I therefore directed Richard to slink a well at Stap­ leton /and make a contract to go down to ,12,000 ft. At 1,172 ft., they come to pure rock salt, so Richard plugged the hole and came.home. After long consul­ tation I agreed to go in for salt malting, so gave him a plan for pans and a boiling 'house', supplied funds and sent him back?’ The original Well was located dose to the little spring creek at the .bottom of the hill, while the last one, put dbiwn shortly after the turn of the century, is on the 'high ground to the east not far from the new farm house at "Stapleton”. BERT GIBBINGS’, , August 16, 1966. ; is soft and supple, prqbaiW has T Not depending on any soap, . never known a blackhead -or a. ‘ pimple, likely wouldn’t wrinlde i if it wtis soaked in salt brine for : a week! Close, ever so close to . the camera, we are led to be­ lieve that this flawless skin, is a direct result Of some soap chock full pif cold cream, or lanolin or estrogene or TBR or duckgrease , . . to prove it, that . gal strokes her cheek, with a bar of the miraculous stuff, car­ esses her tong slender neck with it, teases her dhjn. In loiw, gravelly tones, ‘the announcer tells us that if we wa's/h faith­ fully with this particular soap, diamond earrings will be spark­ lifer, emerald chokers will have more fire, silk will be softer and wonders of wonders, husbands will be more romantic. Given half a chance, this 30 cent cake of soap ‘lis a cheap way to com­ bat extra-marital horseplay and maybe even divorce. Other soap manufacturers ;know the housewife (is not tal<- en ijn by that kind of drivel, so they try to convince her that while she may not be Helen of Trtoy, sire can be just as excit­ ing. By using 'the correct face soap. Myrtle Munster gets; a wink from the grocer, a sigh from.' the paper boy and if you watch carefully, a pinch from the dryeteaner. Those brands of soap could be dangerous' and should foe used sparingly. If a few washings with alt drive men to that kind of behaviour, hap­ pily married women should stick to' plain water for bathing. It should be banned for girls under the1 age of 18! Then 'there are the deodorant soaps for .active girls. Miss Muscles stands in the shower just before the handball match. She scrubs and rubs with such vigor you wonder (if a wire brush would be of any assist­ ance. Fortunately for her, she can ride her'motorcycle all day without worry . . . that other 90 percent of her lis fresh as a daisy. Even in the evening, she can race her boyfriend all the Way to the gymnasium without embarrassing odor due to pers­ piration. I’m certain that the average girl who doesn’t go' Out for such strenuous, activity could1 get by ,without washing for two or three days. What a time saver!' ' . • . ..i Brucef ield Man First Fiddler Free A Brucefiield man, George Henderson, 73, was the first man to the mike at the Shel­ burne Old Time Fiddlers' Con­ test recently. A clipping from the Press and Economist sent to us by Mr. Henderson reports that Hyland Park, a Shelburne campsite, was "literally jammed with 100 or more parties of motorist-visitors” tin town' for the affair. Appearing before the packed house1, were such stars as Al Chevney and the Rhythm Paks of CBC. ■Ch Last week, Canadian Forces 13a<se Clinton hc>«te<l 2Q Ex­ change Army Cadet'S front Trinidad and Tobago. Under the exchange program these Cadets tour different parts of Canada for three weeks; in return, a number of Canadian Army Cadets visit Trinidad and Tobagp.
