He. . also said "A little more could be added to the Manor Hockey Week when Dearborn, Mich, and Clinton minor hockey teams hold their minor hockey day.” Royce Macaulay inquired if any effort is being made -to prepare a history of the town. A walking trail along the Bayfield River from here to Lake Huron was among the suggestions proposed by Fred Slornan, a member of the Clin ton Horticultural Society. He also suggested that a tree be planted1 for every baby born here next year. The town .has a tree shortage, he said. Some of his other suggestions- included a county euchre tour nament for senior Citizens and a fashion show of clothes worn *in the area since Confederation. Mr. Slornan said the horticul- —------------------------------ -------------------1 tural society has already spent $100 for trees on our “drag strips". He Was referring to the maple trees on No. 8 High way. „ Boh Glen, who was represent ing Huron Central Agricultural Society, saiid, "I think the so ciety would like to- put their efforts to the community cen tre." Mir, . Glen also spoke for the Orahge Lodge. ' He said the county lodges are erecting a cairn in Clan Gregor Square, Bayfield. "It will be a county Orange project and would draw more tourist interest in Bay field! than Clinton,” he said. Robert B. Campbell, secre tary of Clinton Retail Merch ants Committee, reported that his committee had over $1,400 in coloured lights and decora tions. They will request the PUC to have these coloured lights on in June, July and Aug- ust of 1967, Mr, Campbell asked, "Is the proposed community centre not our Centennial project?” Then he suggested using the town crest on plates, spoons and other articles which, could be sold with profits for the community centre fund.

Ms * MS George Linton, Globe and Mail Reporter wrote a‘ story Thursday which told that the can and label, cast almost twice as much as the tomato juice in the can . . . and said, "For vinegar, the container cost is more than three1 times that of the product” . . . Linton said that 14.7 percent of the cost of a jar of baby food can be attributed to the ingredients and 32.3 percent to the cost of the container . . . and, according to John A. Con nell, Heinz executive vice-presi dent, the "next price raise is much closer” for all foods pack aged in glass containers, since the Dominion Glass Co. Ltd. of Montreal hiked its prices for glassware. Heinz profit, reported Linton, .is about one-tonth ■ of a cent a can and its price to the grocery trade is 13.6 cents .

Macaroon Swirls, Warm Treat For After Game Victors or, vanquished, sports fans are always famished 'aft er the game. When it’s your turn to cope with the hungry horde, we .suggest warm Maca roon Swirls as excellent after ■game provender. If the game is late and sup per is in 'older, these intrigu ing yeast rolls with their accent of maple syrup, cinnamon and coconut are excellent toppers for wieners and baked beans. The name “macaroon” given to cakes and buns of this type which are flavoured with coco nut comes from the Italian word “macoheroni” which means "macaroni”. Evidently some chef1 was reminded of macaroni when he saw the curl ing strands of cocnut atop confection.
