APPLE DOLLS BECOME characters of
olden times when dressed in old-fashioned

crowns, to show a bun of yarn hair. Apple

shirts and scarves. T-A photo
and yet, I felt it was a good
thing to live in one's own
country,"
To earn her livelihood,
Marilyn took an office job in
Toronto, where, she also did a
"fair amount of singing." She
sang with the Orpheus Choir,
made an occasional TV
appearance, did a tour out west
during holidays, and gave a
recital at Eaton auditorium.
In 1966 she was offered "a
beautiful singing and teaching
job"? in a college in Ohio. "It was
a glorious two years," she
recalls.
However, Cupid got into the
act, and 1967 she married Ozzie
Zivkovic. She stayed on at the
college for a year after her
marriage and then came to
Exeter to settle down and raise
her infant daughter, Alexandria.
When asked what the future
holds, Mrs. Zivkovic answers
without delay, "Right now my
home and family come
first . . . but maybe some day I'll
teach again."
Although Canadians cid not
have the generations of music
background like the Europeans,
Marilyn says they are beginning
to catch up.
"In recent years amazing
things are happening very
quickly in music here."

were in charge of the Hurondale
W.I.'s Christmas program,
December 8.

reading.
The roll call, A Cutter Ride I
Remember, was answered by all

A Christmas lunch was served.
Fun for over the Christmas
holidays, or any time of the
year, can start with peeling an
apple, and end up by making a
doll.
Any family group can easily
make apple dolls which will be
• unique because no two dolls
turn out the same.
Even though the features are
identically carved in fresh
apples, and the final result
cannot be know until the apple
heads have completely dried.
Select firm apples . . they
make the best dolls. Peel and
carve faces for the doll's heads.
Put carved apples on sticks
and insert sticks into holes
punched in a coffee can or other
container. Set this in a granite
ware kettle.
Place a lighted sulphur candle
in a small dish and set it on a
mound of damp sand, inside the
Buy Christmas Seals
Although many people feel
that this disease is no longer a
• problem in Canada, the
Canadian Tuberculosis and
Respiratory Disease Association
reports that last year 5,118
Canadians did have active
tuberculosis. The Association,
through its Christmas Seal
Campaign supports year-round ▪ research on tuberculosis
kettle and alongside the apples.
Cover kettle and leave apples
inside until sulphur is burned up.
This helps preserve color of the
apples, and kills any insects
which might be present.
Remove apples and set to
dry, indoors. This usually takes
two weeks or longer. To further
preserve the apple color add
clear nail polish to the faces
immediately after apples are dry.
Apple doll bodies can be
constructed from wire and bits of
wood. The wire should be sturdy,
but flexible enough for arms and
legs that can be bent at will, or
made to stand or sit.
Wire body, arms and legs' are
covered with cotton batting.
Twist thread around batting and
fasten to hold firmly.
Attach apple head, still on
stick, to body, securing with wire
and glue. For best appearance
your doll should stand about nine
inches tall.
For hair, white yirn is glued to
the apple head.
Use white-headed floral pins
for eyes. Cut off the point, push
pin into eye socket and paint the
iris.
Arms, hands and feet can be
painted with flesh colored paint
and shoes may also be painted on.
Then, the apples dolls are
ready for dressing. Old time
Marilyn Duffus Zivkovic is a
girl who's been singing most of
her life. Since coming to Exeter
two years ago to join her
husband, Ozren, a teacher at
South Huron High School, she
hasn't sung as much, but next
Week she joins the Huronia
Choir, who are presenting
Handel's Messiah? to make her
debut in this district.
Marilyn started voice training
at the age of 14 in her native
Moose Jaw and gave her first
recital in Medicine Hat, Alta„
when she was 16. Three years
later she went on a Young
Artists' tour in the western
provinces.
The citizens of Moose Jaw,
realizing they had a rare talent in
their midst, "took over" and
under the guidance of the
Princess Patricia Club raised
money to send the young singer
to Winnipeg for two years study,
and later helped her finance
further instruction in England
for three years.
"They were wonderful," says
Mrs. Zivkovic, "For every dollar
I saved they matched it with
another, and somehow I was
able to squeak out the three
years at college."
From there she went to
Berlin to work under a singing
professor who nnfortunately
died eight weeks after she
arrived. This threw her plans
awry but she continued in
Germany for three and a half
years where she sang as ajunior
member at the new West Berlin
Opera House.
"It was both wonderful and
terrible."
Wonderful, because in Europe
music is an intrinsic part of
society where a singer is as
important and as needed in the
community as a storekeeper or a
banker. People go to see the
performance more than they go
to hear the performer.
However, life is not all roses
for a singer who is still learning.
Income is meagre and necessitates
poor living quarters and eating
"what's in season," Pretty
clothes and even small luxuries
are not considered.
Finally, in 1962, partly
because she was beginning to
fear for her health, she decided
to come back to Canada.
"It was a trumatic decision,
for I was leaving the world of
music which had been my life,
costumes seem to suit the dolls
best. With a few scraps of
material, a needle and thread and
a little ingenuity outfits can be
made to make your apple people
gems of creativity.
