PHONE 235-1533 Perms - Cuts - Sets - Tints Monday to Friday, 9-6 Thursday Evening Only Closed Saturday CATHY ROBBINS, Prop. "It's the personal touch that means so much," were the words used by Miss Agnes Lizmore, of Westminster IlOspital when she gave an inspiring talk to the ladies of the Legion Auxiliary Monday night, Miss Lizmore, who has worked With the Vets for over 20 years, told of the lonely existence of these old and young and often forgotten war veterans; of the ones whose families have forgot- ten them, sometimes until it's too late; till they have reached their final reward, and peace. Then these 'loved' ones come to shed their tears of sorrow, — the tears cannot be felt or seen any- more — if only they had come with smiles to lighten the long and lonely days of these patients. A card, a letter, a parcel, such little things in everyday lives, the lives of the healthy and happy people, but such wonderful joys to these old soldiers. Some of these boys have been there since World War 1, others since World War 2, but most of them will finish their days there. Miss Lizmore told the ladies that when their birthday parcels arrive and she takes them to the — Continued from page 4 of music. They ask you questions like, "What instrument did Eli Schwartzkopf play in the Bran- denburg Symphony Orchestra on April eleventh, 1801, whenNapo- leon Bonaparte was staying in the city overnight, with his second wife, on the way to the battle of Austerlitz?" But this isn't the worst of it. A chap can stand a couple of weeks of helping his wife memo- rize such great universal truths, and weather it. What really gets him on his knees is putting up with the old lady as the exams draw near. Kids go through examinations with the aplomb of ducks taking a bath. But middle-aged ladies don't especially when they haven't written an exam in years. About three weeks before the exam, they begin to neglect family, house and themselves. A week later, they become nervous. In the final week, they have moved from high C to hysteria. On the day of the exam, it takes tears, tea, tranquilizers, and some- times a good shot of brandy, be- fore they can be pushed into the examination hall, where they sit twitching like old fighter pilots until the papers are given out. I don't know the details, but I suspect George went through something like the above, and I echo his sentiments, loud and clear. If I ever get married again, I want a girl who thinks a sweet potato is about the finest musi- cal instrument that ever hit the market. Do you know what a bane is? Well, that's what music has been in my life, for the past decade. Oh, I know. Every family has Sunday guests with Mr. and Mrs. Fred Doupe were Mr. and Mrs. Fred Parkinson, Brenda, Margaret and Janet, Mrs. Cac- ciotti and Mrs. Don Brine and Cheryl.

I don't know anyone in Exeter" — she says "But, see, it has your name on it!" Often as she is leaving the room she will look back and they still sit there hold- ing the parcel close. Miss Liz- more related many other true- life stories during her talk. Some humorous but so many more that were heartbreaking and gave food for thought. One thought above all "We will remember them". Miss Lizmore was thanked by Mrs. Verna Wurm, who presen- ted her with a small personal gift, after which President Mrs, Wragg gave her a cheque for - $200 to be used for something that would bring happiness to the Vets.

Drinking, health, poverty, divorce, insan- ity, stupidity, delinquents. With our family, its music. People think I am carried away by emotion when I start to sob at a symphony concert. They're right. But it's not the beauty of the music that makes me break down. It's the trouble it has caused, and the money it has cost in the last 10 years. I used to love music, in a simple joyous, uncomplicated way. I used to whistle while I worked and walked. Everything from Green- sleeves, through E in Kleine Nachtmusik to Porgy and Bess. By ear. I liked Stardust and Stravinsky and I'll Be Down to Get You in a Taxi, Honey. Then the kids started taking piano lessons. And I started try- ing to look intelligent when people talked about sonatinas and con- certos and scherzos and dyna- mics and all that (you should pardon the expression) jazz. We fight about the left hand being too loud. We scream at each other about the kids not practis- ing. We go into tantrums about recitals and festivals. Ten years and more than $10,000 later, nobody in my family can play the national anthem without three weeks of preparation. The record player rocks to The Beatles and Bob Dylan. We have to snatch the harmonica and guitar away from the kids. I would like to meet Johann Sebastian Bach on a dark night and strangle him. With a Beethoven sonat a.
