GUEST SPEAKER
By MRS. IRVIN RAPER
Fred Wieberg is spending some
time with Mr. and Mrs. Earl
Wieberg and girls, London,
Sunday, Mrs. Garnet Wieberg
came from Waterloo to help
celebrate his .85th birthday. He
still enjoys fairly good health and
loves to listen to Open Line, read
or watch out the window.
"You've come a long way,"
Carf Cann told the South Heron
Association for the Mentally
Retarded, at their annual Meet-
ing Friday night held in the
Dashwood Community Hall.
Acting as chairman for the
nomination of officers, Mr. Cann
said as a person looking in from
the outside from the very
beginning of the association, he
"I'm sure the community is real
proud of you", he said.
This organization has been the
force behind the establishing of
Huron Hope School for the
Retarded, the Nursery, ARC
Industries workshop, and more
lately, the residence at 228 James
Street for retarded adults, in
conjunction with the' United
Church.
The president, Case Van Raay,
thanked the community for the
"great interest and support
shown in our work." He reported
a new bus in expected this week,
80 per cent of which will be paid
for by grants and 20 per cent by
the Alhambra members, He said
the $9000 grants from ' Huron
County will grea tly help to pay off
the mortgages and stated that
while donations were up, the
financial situation promises to be
'tough next year,'
Bob Fry, director of ARC
Industries, said the past year had
been one of expansion, He bore
this out in his report saying that
the number of trainees had
increased from 19 to 42 in one
year, From a staff of three, ARC
now employed six full time and
two part time help and has 35 to
40 volunteers,
He also informed the meeting
that ARC has started to serve the
Thedford area and at present has
II trainees from there. He
expects the number to go up to 19
in the near future.
New programs for the trainees
include swimming and gym
activities at Vanastra; woodwor-
king, furniture stripping and a
new educational program cond-
ucted four half days each week.
He said ARC receives several
sub-contracts from industries
such as Big 0, Dashwood
Industries and the Exeter Times
Advocating,
The program for the evening
consisted of a play "Snow White
and the Nine Dwarfs" which was
staged by the trainees of Arc
Industries.
-Adrienne Van Raay, University
of Waterloo student , was the
guest speaker. Miss Van Raay
who recently returned from India
where she worked with Brother
Bob Mittleholtz at Jesu Ashram
Who couldn't use some sunny
thoughts these days?,
As I write this column, a
mixture of snow and rain is
falling. Some muddy patches
show in the fields, but snowbanks
still line the roads, By the time
you read this, you may be either
shovelling snow from your
driveway or bailing water from
your basement.
Whatever you're doing, take a
break. Lean on your shovel or sit
on your pail.
Forget the weather forecast for
March that you read in the
Farmers' Almanac — cold . . .
unsettled , „ blustery . storms
moving across Ontario, Skip to
June or July's outlook —clearing
. fair . . . warm . . , hot.
Ignore Stephen Schlitzer's
contention that this is the season
of uncertainty: "Come now that
indefinite weather, when
springtime looks in and then
waits, Which means that I never
know whether to sharpen my
mower or my skates,"
Closes your eyes. Now, imagine
all the white stuff has been
replaced by green grass. Sniff the
scent of the scarlet roses that
blanket the trellis against the
house. Hear a robin chirping, and
feel the sunshine tanning your
face.
Or, forget that you have to
scrape the icefrom the windshield
of your car. Pretend instead that
you're packing some swimming
gear and a picnic basket in the
trunk.
Can't you see the leafy maples
lining the road that leads to the
beach? Can't you hear the waves
slapping the shore and the sea
gulls scolding you? Can't you feel
the warm sand slipping under
your bare feet?
Maybe you can envision a
small lake port, where the
sailboats rest contentedly at
anchor and the water reflects
some clouds, buildings and
church spires.
Do the words of Stopford A.
drive March 6 by the players
themselves.
There will be a send off dance
at the Legion March 10,fourdays
before the team leaves for
England. •
Brooke help you picture a
Mountain scene in the summer?
"A little sun, a little rain,
A soft wind blowing from the
west,
And woods and fields are sweet
again,
-And warmth within the moun-
tain's breast."
-Perhaps you agree with Henry
van Dyke, who suggested the
things of deepest worth are:
"Light of the sapphire skies,
Peace of the silent hills,
Shelter of forest, comfort of the
grass
Shadow of clouds that quickly
pass,
And after showers
The smell of flowers,
In a similar vein, you can
maybe picture a fountain the way
James Russell-Lowell did when
he wrote:
"Into the slu hisas,
Full of the light,
Leaping and flashing
Morning and night.
Into the starlight
Rushing in spray,
Happy at midnight
Happy by day."
Can't you see the grass and the
rolling hills of the park that
surrounds the fountain? Did you
notice the squirrel scamper down
one pine tree and up another?
Can't you see William Word-
sworth's "host of golden daf-
fodils, beside the lake,beneath
the trees, fluttering and dancing
in the breeze"?
Like Mary Dawson Hughes, "I
would like to send you a sun-
beam, or the twinkle of some
bright star, or a tiny piece of the
down fleece that clings to a cloud
afar,"
But each of us depends on our
own daydreams to conjure up
sunny thoughts. Isn't it amazing
how our minds can transport us
through timesand seasons?
Meanwhile, if you're still
leaning on your shovel or sitting
on your pail after all these sunny
thoughts, you'll be either freezing
in your driveway or floating
around your basement. Don't
worry. When you're sweltering in
August, you'll remember these
days with appreciation.
Responding to criticism of the
trip by members of council and
people in Exeter, club president
Damian Soloman said that each
of the parents of the boys had
been fully consulted before the
trip was confirmed and all
agreed, giving their full consent.
He also said that recent
criticism of the late start for the
drive is unfounded, saying that he
started to solicit funds as early as
lastH
He alsofall said that donations can
be dropped off at any one of the
banks in Exeter who have offered
their services as fund depots.
The Exeter Centennial Soccer
Club is about to begin a concerted
drive for funds to send the Exeter
