The boxes shown here were made by Mrs. Joanne McKnight of Exeter and include glass enclosed and open shadow box varieties employing all kinds of 'found' items and figurines. T-A photo eut# eaiuteit Ecology boxes, a good fall craft • or If you are a born saver or collector of useless tid bits this could be just the craft for you. Joanne McKnight of Exeter has been making ecology boxes for about a year and she uses everything from seeds and dried flowers to stones and moss. Joanne said that the craft is a good one for preserving memories and studying human nature. "I'm a real nature lover and maybe that's why I enjoy it so much". Joanne first saw the craft displayed in a hobby shop in the States.She bought one kit and then she said "I got kind of carried away," An ecology box involves a MR.

Many of the boxes she has made will make good Christmas presents for friends and relatives. T-A photo • shallow wooden frame with separate compartments to store the different items and a glass front to preserve them. Boxes can be made from scrap wood found around the house or can be bought at a craft store all cut to measure. Several of Joanne's creations are made of barn board and feature an open front. Putty on the bottom of the box holds the dried flowers and figurines in place and is generally covered with moss. Figures canbe bought or can be moulded from plasticine or clay. Joanne feels that this craft is especially interesting because all kinds of other crafts can be in- corporated into the finished product, Pottery, macrame, ,decoupage and painting can all be used to enhance the ap- pearance of the collection. An old family picture can be used as a background to the box and things belonging to relatives or family treasures can be placed in the box for safe displaying. One of Joanne's favourite boxes is comprised of articles picked up while on a walk through the woods in Northern Ontario. There was so much interest shown in the craft that Joanne displayed at the fair that she hopes to get a class started sometime this fall to instruct other women of the community in the art of making ecology boxes.

BUILDING CENTRE T-A to change wedding reports Everybody loves a wedding and we at the Times-Advocate are no exception. We appreciate receiving pictures and write-ups for our women's pages but feel that often too .much space is devoted to details. With the idea of modernizing our format we propose to change the style of our wedding coverage. Starting next week wedding reports will be received with a picture and the information will be used as a cutline under the picture. Information should be restricted to the bride's name, the groom's name, names of both parents and where they live, the officiating clergyman, name of church and brief description of church decoration, the names of bridal attendants and ushers, where the couple went for a honeymoon and where they will live. We intend to leave the picture as large as possible so that a description of the gown is not necessary. The, problem is basically one of space and we hope in this way to give every bride the same coverage without sacrificing other news of interest to women. We would appreciate receiving the information and picture as soon as possible after the wed- ding and no later than three weeks.
