THOMAS DROVER The consumer revolt over high prices is rated by Canada' s wom- en's editors as the biggest news story of the year directly in- volving or affecting women. The women's editors of 107 newspapers, radio and television stations voted in a C an a di an Press year-end poll in which Mrs. Isabel LeBourdals was picked as the country's most newsworthy woman of 1966. Her book led to a Supreme Court of Canada review of the murder conviction of Steven Truscott. The top women's page story began making headlines in Sep- tember when organized protests against rising food prices gained momentum about the same time the Senate-Commons committee started its hearings. Most of the protest groups were formed to boycott retail stores in an effort to force them to lower their prices. Despite doubts about the effectiveness of boycotting, g r o ups have been formed all across the country. They are expecting to present a brief to the Senate-Commons committee this month. FAMILY'S MOST VALUABLE GIFT Canada's first Christmas and New Year celebration was back in 1536 when Jaques Cartier wintered at Stadacona with his ill-fated little colony. But that band of venturers had very little to celebrate—famine, illness, hostile Indians--winter itself combined to make that Christmas anything but merry. The first Christmas worthy of the description "merry" was in 1606 in the colony of Port Royal. Plagued by scurvy and with an- other long winter upon them, the colonists were struggling against By GORDON MORLEY New Year visitors with Mr. & Mrs. Jack Trevithick and Neil were Mr. & Mrs. Ed.

Each member took turns in being grand master for a day and it became a point of honor to fill the post of pro- viding meals for the company with flair, As the result of this friendly competition Marc Lescarbot, one of the earliests historians of Canadian settlement, records that the table groaned beneath all the luxuries of the winter forest—moose, caribou and deer, beaver, otter and hare; ducks, geese grouse and plover; stur- geon and trout and fish innum- erable speared through the ice.." While few of the gastronomical delights which made the Canadian holiday 1606 a merry one appear- ed on menus in 1966 or will appear in 1967 the tradition of special yuletide foods remains firmly entrenched and home- makers planned feasts which were the pinnacle of the year's entertaining. It's the wise homemaker who enjoys her holiday cooking fling but takes a tip from Champlain and his Ordre du Bon Temps and remembers that good nutri- tion on a year-round basis is essential for the health of her own family. And the homemaker of today has much more than the instinct for good nutrition which inspired Champlain. She has Canada's Food Guide as a guidepost to good family meals. She knows from its simple rules that daily servings of vegetables, fruit, meat, eggs and milk and cereal are essential for her family's well-being. And what better centennial pro- ject could any homemaker have than good nutrition for her family!! It's the most worthwhile project to undertake and the most valuable present a family can receive. BRINSLEY LAD ON TV Michael Koricina, four-year- old son of Mr. and Mrs. Am- brose Koricina was guest of CFPL television Friday Decem- ber 30, appearing on the Sun- shine School program. Michael as hi-neighbor visitors played one of the leading roles in the half-hour children's entertain- ment. By MRS. W. MOTZ Mr. & Mrs. Marvin Wein and family spent New Years with Mrs. Wein's brother and wife and fam- ily, Mr. & Mrs. Fred Corner in London. Miss Margaret Haist returned to Western University in Lon- don Tuesday after spending Christmas and New Years with her parents, Mr. & Mrs. Earl Haist. Mr. & Mrs. Donald Glanville and family moved into the home owned by Mr. Sam Lawson last week and recently occupied by Mr. Joe Montgomery who moved to Exeter. In 1956 Elizabeth Knox, whose father was minister of Trivitt Memorial Church, Exeter, wrote a letter to 'Santa Claus telling him that there were poor child- ren who needed presents more than she did. Elizabeth was seven years old then and her letter was one of many others published in the Times-Advocate. A reader signed as "Another Elizabeth" was moved by the little girl's letter and sent her a gift anony- mously. Each Christmas since, a letter has arrived with a gift of money for Elizabeth, who is now a Grade 13 student at Central Elgin Collegiate Institute, St. Thomas. This year was no exception for Elizabeth received an en- velope containing four $100 bills and five $20 bills. "Another Eliz- abeth" has been dead about six years but the legacy has been carried on secretly by a "friend of Another Elizabeth." The money has been put in two separate trust funds; the first is to be used for her edu- cation and the fund has reached more than $3,600; the second is called the "Elizabeth Trust" and the interest is to go to the charity of Elizabeth's choice. Elizabeth plans to become a medical lab technician, studying at a London Hospital after she graduates this year. She apprec- iates the mystery of her un known benefactor and hopes, at present anyway,that she doesn't find out who gives her the money. "It would take away the magic" said Elizabeth.

They received lovely gifts from their family, relatives, friends and neighbours, a letter of con- gratulations from Rt. Hon. Lester B. Pearson and many cards.

Mrs. Grover was the former Ethel Bell, daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Robert Bell of Usborne Township, and was a dressmaker for several years.
