When this house was built it was hard to imagine all the wonderful ways in which electricity would be. serving us today. That's why the wiring in so many older homes just isn't adequate for today's needs. There are many signs. Fuses blowing. Lights dimming. Appli- ances perforiping sluggishly. Cluttered extension cords. Not enough outlets. So, if you're planning to mod- ernize your home, think first of the wiring. Have a qualified elec- trical contractor check it. You'll be surprised at how easily and inexpensively it can be updated, Or just ask your Hydro. fa The Name of the Carrie is Electrical I With SHIRLEY J. KELLER Holiday-time is past now. What a Pity! It took me until Wednesday of holiday week to really start to unwind and before I knew it it was time to get back to the old grind again , .. but such is life, We did get to Ottawa. It was my first trip to Canada's capital and I enjoyed the whole city immensely, We set our tent by the Ottawa River in a camp located right within the city limits. It made access to everything so easy. On our first day there we met the folks who were to become our friends for the next couple of days. A couple from Hamilton with their two daughters and a pair of teenagers (borderline hippies, I thought at first) from Toronto made unlikely comp anions for sightseeing and funmaking. We watched the changing of the guards together. That was an impressive ceremony which evenour hard-to-interest children found fascinating. We , spent the evenings together, we ate together, we • swam together, we played together, When we finally split up it was like leaving good friends except it was sadder because somehow we knew it was forever. Those two teenaged lads were something else again. I can honestly say I formed my opinion of them just as soon as they drove into the campsite next to us, I learned later how wrong it was. They arrived in a slightly battered up car. It turned out to • be not only their transportation but their home away from home. The pair slept on the car — not in it, on it. The car's owner slept on the hood in a sleeping bag atop an air mattress. His companion nestled down on the trunk lid • with his rather skimpy-looking sleeping bag, hardly protection against the bumps and curves of the trunk lid. Their grocery shopping list contained such staples as a case of diet pop and a large jar of ground pepper. The latter item was sprinkled on everything from barbecued "klik" to catsup sandwiches. Was it any wonder I soon began to worry about their welfare so much that I invited them to join us for meals? But despite their strange living habits these two boys were ft as fine as you could expect to find anywhere. They were polite, eager to help around camp, anxious to please, quiet, thoughtful, kind and above all, in tune with not only their generation but our generation as well. It was a pleasure to know them and a real heartache to leave them behind, Both have promised to visit us soon. I'm hoping they don't forget that pact. c INVITATIONS 0 ANNOUNCEMENTS ACCESSORIES COME IN AND ASK FOR YOUR FREE BRIDAL GIFT REGISTER One thing this camping trip did for me was to teach me how to pack and what to take, Everybody has heard the familiar edict — travel light, There is more truth in that than you'll ever know until you start out on a camping trip but at the same time, it is frustrating to have left the more essential things at home. We forgot one terribly important part of our gear „ . the poles and pegs for our dining tent, Fortunately the weather was just great so eating outside was no problem at all, Since there are some perfectly good camping weekends ahead, I'll pass on my limited knowledge about camping apparatus just for your information. Dishes: If there are four in your camping group, take only four place settings; one sharp knife; one can opener; one bottle opener; one frying pan; one egg lifter or spatula; one saucepan; a coffee pot or tea kettle; one plastic bowl, one or two serving spoons. Food; Salt, pepper, sugar, coffee, tea, vinegar, catsup, mustard, relish, salad dressing, eggs, potatoes and enough other food for one or at the most two meals. You can carry some canned goods if you wish but for the most part, shop from meal to meal. You get more variety and there is not so much packing and unpacking. Keep only small amounts of butter, milk, meat etc. in the cooler, Towels: Into one cardboard box or suitcase put several handtowels, dishtowels, face cloths, dish cloths, some hand soap, dishwashing liquid, detergent, tissues, paper towels and a kit containing needle, thread, scissors, fly spray, insect repellent, aspirins, bandages etc. Clothes: Ideally, each — Continued from Page 8 Sherritt at the home of Misses Amy and Greta Lammie; and at a community shower given by the Centralia United Church ladies. 7zefte% qmos Candelabra and arrangements of pink gladioli, white pompom mums and baby's breath decorated the chancel of Zion West United Church July 12 for the wedding of Barbara Ann Hem, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas G.

Wilson was the officiating clergyman, Mrs. Ross Ballantyne, sister of the bride, RR 1 Kirkton, was organist with soloist Gordon Johnson, RR 1 Granton, singing I'll Walk Beside You and 0 Perfect Love. On the arm of her father, the bride wore a floor-length gown of organza over taffeta with an empire waistline and lilypoint sleeves. The bodice, trimmed with covered buttons, and the train, cascading from the scooped neckline, were of embroidered lace. To complete her bridal outfit the bride chose a shoulder-length veil which was held by a pearl and crystal tiara. She carried a triangular cascade of red roses. Maid of honor was Miss Sheila Hem, sister of the bride, RR 1 Woodham. Bridesmaids were Miss Laura French, sister of the groom, RR 3 Lucan; Mrs. Janet Hem, RR 3 Exeter; and Miss Judy Blair, RR 1 Centralia. They wore floor-length short sleeved gowns in princess lines of alternating yellow and green peau de poiret accented with white lace from shoulders to hems.

We have soft plastic insulated bags (such as are meant for a picnic) in various ?talon. Into each bag should be packed a change of clothes, a towel, a face cloth, a bar of soap, a tooth brush, tooth paste, any personal grooming aids and a good sized plastic bag for dirty laundry. In the trunk of the car, carry a large laundry bag into which dirty laundry can be put daily. If you have room, a larger suitcase can be carried with additional clothes for the family but this needn't be unpacked every day. Swim suits: I found a large plastic bag was ideal for holding swim suits for the entire family, beach towels, bathing caps, beach rugs, deflated beach toys, sandals etc. The whole thing was stored in the car trunk. A trip to Upper Canada Village at Morrisburg was well worth the admission price of $5.50 for the four of us. It was like walking into and out of another world. I enjoyed touring the old-fashioned houses, stores, barns, businesses, etc. of the little village but most of all I was impressed with the authentic settings. Each house had flower gardens and vegetable gardens growing in the yard. Since it was an era before lawn mowers, the grass was left to grow long or had been chopped ddwn with a sickle and left to dry in the sun. The farm hands in the village the day we visited were hauling manure from the livery stable in back of the hotel. They were using plain old forks and a flat rack drawn by a team of horses. At the blacksmith shop, everything looked and smelled so real. The cabinet maker in the carnations. The groom's mother wore an A-line dress in lace over taffeta with a roll collar, white accessories and a corsage of yellow carnations.

Mrs. Dorothy Brintnell, sister of the bride, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia; Mrs. Ladine Volland, Hensall; Miss Pat Smith, Lucan; and Miss Kimberly Brintnell, niece of the bride, Dartmouth, Nova Scotia, attended the bride.

For instance, he told us that to remove varnish from old pieces of furniture you must apply commercial varnish remover and keep the piece wet with remover until the old varnish melts and is able to be wiped away with a cloth. Then one more washing with the varnish remover is a must before the new finish is applied, For hand-rubbed furniture, apply only a minimum of boiled linseed oil to the article once every 24 hours for 15 days. After that, just take a dry cloth and polish the piece of furniture until it shines. Only one thing to remember! Never polish furniture on a Saturday afternoon or anytime on a Sunday, according to the advice of the friendly old cabinetmaker at Upper Canada Village.
