advice she gives is wed!) hearing.
Take a trusted relative or
friend on this shopping trip,
someone who will be honest and
helpful in making the big
decision.
And allow Yourself plenty of
time for this purchase.
Half the enjoyment will come
from dressing up in the various
gowns, veil and all, to get the
5ctotal effect." You will want
lots of time to primp and preen
before the mirrors, just savoring
the excitement of it all. Don't
try to meet a deadline that day.
Take it easy and have fun.
Next week we'll talk about
the shopping spree with the
bridesmaids.
If you're on the planning
committee for spring teas, bridal
showers or any other large-scale
events, these sandwich facts
from the Food Council, Ontario
Department of Agriculture and
Food, will be of help.
For a daytime reception of
mixed company, allow two slices
of bread per person. At a ladies'
gathering the hostess should
allow one to one and a half slices
of bread per guest.
A one-pound loaf of bread has
about 30 1/2-inch slices, giving 15
sandwiches, while a 24-ounce
loaf has about 40 slices, giving
20 sandwiches.
Day-old bread is best for
buttering, but for any rolled
sandwiches use the freshest
bread you can get so the
sandwiches won't crack when
rolled.
When buttering, allow about
one teaspoon butter per bread
slice if the crusts are left on, and
one half to one third teaspoon
butter if the crusts will be
trimmed off. One pound of
butter will spread about 130
slices of bread or enough for 65
sandwiches. * *

Village of Grand Bend Financial Report
Balance . Sheet Cot*. ' Notes To
Financial Statements
Auditor's Report
To the Council and Ratepayers of
The Municipal Corporation of the
Village of Grand Bend
Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have examined the books and records of the Village
of Grand Bend and the Public Utilities Commission for the
year ended December 31, 1968.
Capital Fund
Capital expenditures for the year were $5,405.80. These
were financed from the revenue fund.
The debt to Ontario Water Resources Commission was
reduced by $3,090.62 during the year. The principal balance
now stands at $2,219.77 and will be retired in 1969.
Current Fund
The surplus now stands at $85,133.02, an increase of
$23,751.86 over the previous year. According to provisions of
the Municipal Act this surplus must be used to reduce the
1969 levy. As this could not be done without severely
impairing the Village's cash position for 1969, it Is
recommended that an amount equal to the accumulated
surplus be included in the estimates for 1969 as a reserve for
working funds.
Outstanding taxes at December 31, 1968 were
$43,207.74 with $5,356.91 due from 1966 and prior years: It
is recommended that tax sale proceedings should be
commenced on the lands which are so liable.
Auditor's Opinion
We 'hereby report that in our opinion:
1. The financial transactions which have come under notice
have been within the powers of the municipality.
2. The audit has been conducted in accordance with the
instructipns of the Department of Municipal Affairs.
3. The financial statements present fairly the financial position
of the municipality as at December 31, 1968 and the results
of its operations for the year ended on that date,
