I'm sure many parents think their sons and daughters are a bit crazy, concerning their fash- ions. Well, I'd•like to assure you that we aren't and that most of the clothes we wear are the "in" fashions. The main "in" colors this fall are jade, burgundy, gold, and camel. Burgundy seems to be the most popular color for both boys and girls. The girls still seem to favor the British look, that is empire-waisted dresses, granny lace, and dresses and ANNUAL MEETING The voters of Zion Lutheran Church held their annual election of officers.

These look very smart and I like them! The "total look" from Paris doesn't seem to have influenced our girls to a great extent. I have seen a few girls with sweat- ers and stockings to match and these 1pok very smart, if you are thin and are a little on the tall side. I don't believe courrege boots are going to sweep the market, as they don't seem to be too popular. I, myself, don't like them. One of the most popu- lar fabrics this year seems to be corduroy. Stockings are lacier and racier than ever before. They come in nylon, orlon, knits and other fabrics. They are in all colors and have all types of de- signs on them. I think these stockings are "the end". The boys are wearing pants of burgundy, green, blue, grey, tan, and white fabrics, They usu- ally wear matching shirts or sweaters with them. Most types of pants are of stretch fabrics, cuffiess and tight. Now, the de- gree of tightness is usually up to the boy, but there are a few who wear their pants too tight and this is very unbecoming and unfashionable. White socks for boys are still very popular, but black and colored socks are grad, ually coming back, for which I'm sure many mothers are glad.

Kinkead, Chairman of the Huron County Advisory Board, The Canadian National Institute for the Blind. He illustrated his point with the true story of Fred Martin, who lost his sight in his early'sixties. To avoid embarrassment, Fred resigned from the service club he had enjoyed for years. Because he could not avoid stones and stumps in his favourite fishing haunts, he gave up fishing. Since he could no longer see to read, he stopped going to church. When his self pity became so extreme that he refused to step out of his own living room, his wife called the CNIB. A sightless field secretary visited him and explained the services. Since the new client had a pension and some invest- ments, his financial position was satisfactory. One of the first services he found eseful was a Braille watch which restored his ability to tell the time. He learned to use Braille playing cards and took lessons in the use of the white cane from a CNIB home teacher, also blind herself. He did not believe that blind people • could enjoy social activities. That summer, with extra urg- ing, the new trainee did attend the annual picnic for the blind. To his surprise he discovered that he could take part in the games along with other blind per- sons and enjoyed himself as much as he had done at picnics all his life. That fall he joined the White Cane Club where he made new friends. The membership con- sisted of a former bank manager, a merchant, factory workers and ful gifts after which they re- minisced about bygone days. Their five-year-old grandson Brian Pinches sang a solo.

Gray- biel were united in marriage at the bride's home October 27, 1915 by the late Rev. J. H. Grenzebach of the Dashwood EUB church of which they are mem- bers. They have one daughter, Joyce (Mrs, Tom Pinches) and one grandson, Brian pinches.

He joined the blind bowling league and learned that he could make a fair score with the help of a volunteer sighted coach. The club activities, which re- habilitate while they entertain, soon changed his attitude towards blindness", said the chairman, "Soon he was his old, jovial self again. The embarrassment and self pity of early blindness were gone. In fact, he had reached a new horizon — the gOal of CNIB services. You share in the pro- ject when you support the CNIB appeal in this community." It is taking place now and donations may be sent to Mr. Larry Snider Campaign Chairman for Exeter and District. By MRS.
