HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Exeter Times-Advocate, 1969-12-04, Page 11arrangements were provided by
Mrs. Ralph Bailey.
At the close of the exercises
the graduates and their guests
were served refreshments in the
board room.
Afterwards Mrs. Wilson,
director of nursing, spoke
proudly of the girls who now
leave our hospital to work in
other areas.
She said that when the girls
arrived last February they were
fresh out of school, young and
eager but with little conception
of hospital work, However, in a
very short time they had picked
up hospital manners and nursing
routine.
"These girls are very much
liked by the patients," she said,
"It is with them the sick have
their first intimate contact upon
entering the hospital. It is not
unusual that it falls to the
R.N.A. to give the comfort and
security so much needed for the
welfare of the patient."
Exeter artist creates
beautiful decorations
A visit to the home of Mrs.
David Cross finds her already
very busy with Christmas
decorations.
She produces many lovely
arrangements for tables and
doors using artificial flowers,
cheery little elves and candles
she has made herself.
To achieve one set of elegant
Christmas candles she
painstakingly drips wax over
pretty shaped bottles and
candles.
Here is the method she uses:
First you will need an
unusual shaped bottle, wax and
a candle.
Melt the wax over hot water.
Hold bottle over the melting
wax and spoon the wax over the
bottle to form in droplets. You
must be patient and do this
slowly. If the wax is poured on
too quickly it will run to the
bottom of the bottle rather than
forming the droplets.
When the bottle is nearly
done insert candle in the top and
continue dripping until you get
the desired effect on the candle
also.
Let the wax dry overnight
and then spray with gold paint.
Finish it off by attaching
Christmas flowers or other
decorations.
CHRISTMAS DECORATIONS—Mrs. David Cross, Exeter is shown dripping wax over a candle and
bottle. The final results will be a beautiful ornament to enhance her home.

Rev. Glen Wright, Exeter
addressed the seventh graduating
class of the Registered Nursing
Assistants at South Huron
Hospital, November 28th.
He reminded his audience
that when one looks back on
achievments it is the beginnings
that are the most important. Mr.
Wright told the graduates that he
admired them, first of all, for
the beginning they had already
made in personal and academic
growth.
He admired them, too, for
choosing to become members of
the healing team. That in making
• this choice they had chosen a
job that was often difficult.
He reminded them that they
must continue to acquire new
skills and knowledge but that
they must also remember to
retain a healing attitude.
The graduates were
challenged by Mr, Wright to
"always see the patient as a
person and not as a number on a
door or a case history on a
chart." People entering a
hospital are often frightened by
the strange atmosphere and they
need someone to comfort them ▪ and make them feel as much at
home as possible.
"Your's is a holy task," he
commended the girls," and we
all admire you for tackling it."
Graduation diplomas were
presented by the class by Mrs. J.
H. Delbridge, instructress,
assisted by Mrs. M. R. Wilson,
director of nursing.
Vice-chairman of the Board of
Directors presented each girl
with a graduation pin. The
graduates also received gifts
from the medical staff and
surpervisory staff. These were
given by Dr. V. Gulens; and Mrs.
B. Horton and Mrs. I. Bennewies
of the nursing staff.
Valedictorian, Elizabeth Ann
Reinhardt, commended the staff
of the South Huron Hospital
Training Centre for the examples
they had set for the student
nurses.
Speaking to them she said,
"You have given us a part of
yourselves which we will
endeavour to maintain and pass
along." She indicated the
graduates realized they had been
accorded a trust and a
responsibility in receiving the
basic tools of nursing. "Now we
must go out to practice our
knowledge and skill."
Miss Reinhardt stressed that
graduation is not an end but
rather a new beginning. She told
the graduates they will be faced
with new ideas and trends and
that in this moon walking age
they must be ready to listen to
new ideas.
Her address ended by
referring to the friendships made
during the training days. She
said, "TO-day we stand together
as a class for the last time. Our
hearts are full of joy and sorrow
as we recall the past and look
forward to the future."
Miss Sharon Martine, a
member of the South Huron
Hospital staff was the soloist.
She was accompanied by Miss
Helen Nadiger.
Mrs. W. Willard provided the
processional and recessional
music on the piano.

P. Bodaly for their monthly
meeting.

the seasons really represent."
The meeting closed with
prayer.
Units and 4 of the Exeter
United Church Women met
Monday night in the church
rooms festively decorated for
the Christmas season.
Each unit conducted its own
business meeting and then
combined for worship and a
Christmas program,
A delightful play, "Gifts You
Cannot Buy" was presented and
reminded the members that gifts
like a mother listening with
patience to her child, a son
clearing the sidewalks for his
mother, a father spending a half
hour in worship with his family
are gifts that money cannot buy.
It also reminded the ladies that
the best gift of all was God's gift
of His Son.
A poem, "The Greatest Story
Ever Told," was followed by
prayer by Dorothy Taylor,
Mrs. George Sereda sang two
lovely Christmas songs
accompanied by Mrs. Bev
Skinner.
In relating her experience
with shoplifters Mrs. Gerald
Glenn told the audience that
adults are bigger offenders than
children and teenagers. She
stated that 3Q% of all shoplifting
takes place the three weeks
before Christmas.

Mrs. Lloyd Ballantyne gave a
report on the district meeting in
Hensall. A penny sale was held
at the close of the meeting.
An European trick for
delicious gravy, according to the
Poultry Products Institute of
Canada, is the addition of a little
dry or semi-sweet wine to the
dripping in the pan during the
last half to one hour of the
roasting time of turkey or
chicken. The alcohol evaporates
but the flavour that is left adds
to the gravy flavour.
