During two hours of watching
TV last night, I learned a lot.
I can now answer the nagging
question "What is the largest
selling toilet bowl cleaner in
Canada?" If I want to be called a
"soft touch," I know which fabric
softener to use. In addition, I
discovered watches can
withstand more punishment than
most people put theirs through in
a lifetime.
The next time I suffer from a
miserable cold I'll know where to
find a little warmth for it. A
couple of small tablets will
relieve my congestion, my runny
nose, my sniffles and sneezes as
well as all my aches and pains.
Over the years, the products in
the medicine chest have come
and gone; only one, name has
remained.
Do you know what the lum-
berjacks in the towering camps
of British Columbia have in
common with the sailors on the
Great Lakes? They take the same
thing for the relief of a headache,
0 Mog.owbilezoo tour guides, pee
wee hockey coaches, camp
leaders and theatre managers
use a remedy that isn't even
recommended for kids.
The friendly proprietor of a
small town general store is an
expert in fighting the decay in
children's teeth. For adults, the
taste of a mouth wash should be
strong like a game of handball.
On the subject of food, the kids
can't be fooled. They know the
kind of ketchup they want. It's
slow good. A boy genius can
discern one brand of cheese slice
from another with only one bite.
Another lad can say "two all
beef patties, special sauce, let-
tuce, cheese, pickle, onion on a
Barb Grant
hosts meeting
"The Pendulum Swings" was
the topic of the February 3
meeting of the Exeter Alpha Pi
Sorority. It was presented by
Marion McCarter and Glenda
Wagner.
Barb Grant was the hostess for
the event and she was assisted by
co-hostess Penny Dinney.
Envelopes were handed out to
members able to give assistance
to the Kinettes with their canvass
for the Heart Fund. During roll
call members had to give a three
word answer to the question
"what do you want in life?"
DEBBIE JOSEPHSON of Exeter Public School was the winner in the junior division of the public speaking
competition held at the school Friday afternoon. Her topic was figure skating and it will advance her to the
next level of competition in the Legion-sponsored event, Teresa Morrison (centre) of Exeter Public School
placed second with her subject of shoplifting and Diane Kints of Precious Blood School was awarded third
prize with her speech about cats. T-A photo

Having lost a number of
teaching days in January we
were pleased that the
Administration cancelled the
Professional Activity Day and
allowed us to use it as a regular
teaching day.
The toboggan party planned by
Y.A,C.IVI.R, for that P.D. day had
to be cancelled but several
students joined us for skating
instead and served the 4 dozen do-
nuts that they had purchased for
the original party.
We welcomed a new pupil who
transferred from Stephen Central
School this past month. Andy
seems to be enjoying his new
friends and we are happy to have
him with us.
Mr, Dave Bieman video-taped
some of our activities on Tuesday
and then played them back on the
T.V, for the children to see
themselves. He plans to come
again next Tuesday as five of our
pupils were absent and we would
like to have all our pupils on
video-tape.

These past few weeks of bad
weather have provided many
frustrations for staff, our drivers,
our pupils and their parents.
We appreciate your un-
derstanding of the difficulties we
face in making the decision
regarding school closings. Since
our children are brought in from
a number of areas including
Thedford, Grand Rend, Dash-
wood, Zurich and Exeter it is
possible on some days to bring in
pupils from one area and not
another.
Since the Dietrichs (Earl's
Cabs) must leave on the school
route before 7;10 a.m. in this
weather they have appreciated
those parents who phone in to let
them know if their local roads are
not passable. We fully support
any parents' decision to keep
their child home of they feel their
roads are not fit to travel.
The Dietrichs deserve a very
special thanks for keeping Cindy,
Eileen and Jeffrey at their home
the night of January 21. Zero
visibility and drifted roads made
it impossible to get all the
children home that night and
Earl and Yvonne looked after
them. (They also took in two
stranded teachers for supper as
Mrs. Hodgins and I were unable

A VARIETY of topics were featured at the public speaking competition held Friday of Exeter Public School.
Kathy Giffin (left) of Precious Blood School won first place in the senior division with her topic of mixed spor-
ting activities. Annette Conn of Exeter Public School placed second with a speech about mushrooms and
third prize was awarded to David Newton of Exeter Public School. His topic highlighted the life of country
music star Johnny Cash. Three speakers from each school participated and Kathy Giffin will advance to the
next level in the Legion-sponsored competition. la-A photo

Last night I also learned a
lesson in etiquette. Licking one's
fingers after eating fried chicken
is permissible.
The take-out restaurants go to
a lot of trouble. Their kitchens
look spotless; their food tastes
scrum pdelicious ; and their
waitresses always smile. And
they do it all for me.
People just like me are finding
their pictures on cereal boxes,
and old-fashioned goodness is
coming back into our breakfasts.

cake mixes are so moist, I'll be
tempted to eat them before
they're frosted,

Flu bug has cleared up and we
hope that programs will soon be

Activities were carried on in
each of the areas during the past
month such as sing songs, bingos
and the showing of coloured
slides of birthdays and events at
the Home.
A special program was
arranged and directed by Jim
Lawrie, of Blyth, for "Family
Night" in honour of Bobbie Burns
Birthday. Jim sang several
Scottish songs and Mrs. Ella
Richmond was accompanist for
the program, There were dance
numbers by Kim Craig and
Karen Glousher; Beth and Laurie
Charters; Kathy Battye and Ted
Elliott, There were instrumentals
by Jim McAll, violin, and a
combination of vocal and in-
strumentals by the Elliott

Gospel Players sang several

clude James Wharton, Robert
Esther and,the Brommer family.

Speaking of Canada, this is a
beautiful country inhabited by
beautiful people. To enjoy this
great land to the utmost, I should
drink beer. That's what the
beautiful people do.
One group of beautiful, beer-
drinking people saw a huge
balloon sailing above the
treetops. Later I noticed a white-
haired gentleman in a white suit
striding across the TV screen, I
thought he was another effect of
the beer; instead he was selling
garbage bags,
