minimized with a portable

The simplest and most effec-
tive way of doing this is to
counteract the low humidity

on by dry heating systems.

London couple
exchange vows
Conna Garrett and John
Francis Doyle, both of London
exchanged wedding vows on
Saturday, December 18, 1976 at
St. Patrick's Church in London.
The attendants were Phyllis
White, Petrolia, sister of the
bride and Dan McCann, Mt.
Carmel, nephew of the groom.
Mr. & Mrs. Doyle are residing
at 111 Empire Street, London,

as my toothbrush, my comb, a
sweater or a pair of shoes, a
writing pad filled with notes or a
roll of film, my watch or my
purse.
I worried about my falling
memory until I heard that other
people forget things, too.
For instance, a housewife put a
bag of brown sugar in the freezer
and a box of ice cream in the
cupboard. Another lady popped a
roast into the oven before leaving
for an afternoon meeting, Her
mind was at ease because she
knew the automatic timer would
have the meat cooked by the time
she got home. Unfortunately, she
forgot to turn it on.
A farmer hung a logging chain
on the back of a tractor, then
went to the field to plow, After
furrowing two-and-a-half acres
he remembered the chain, which
was nowhere in sight. A second
man used a tractor and blade to
pack ensilage in a bunker silo. He
removed his jacket, flung it over
a post and hasn't seen the coat
since.
Meanwhile two ladies, who
shall remain nameless, went to
church on a Sunday Morning. As
usual, one of their daughters
accompanied them to Sunday
School. After the service, the
children practiced for a special
choir. The ladies chatted with the
other members of the
congregation outside the Church.
Soon they felt cold and decided
they might as well go home.
During the drive, they
discussed an up-coming bazaar
and bake sale. They were still
sitting in the yard when a neigh-
bours truck stopped at the end of
the laneway,
"I wonder what they're
stopping for," one of the ladies
mused.
Then she saw her daughter
jump from the truck, The two
ladies looked at each other, at the
empty back seat and at the girl
walking in the lane. In spite of
their embarrassment, they
laughed, but to this day, the girl
can't see the humour in the
situation.
Before you men start cracking
your "sounds just like women"
jokes, I'll tell you about a farmer
who pulled a similar stunt.
He drove his wife to town.
While she shopped for
groceries, he attended to
business at the agricultural office
and at a machine shop.
They had agreed to meet on a
certain corner at a certain time.
She arrived on schedule, but he
was late. She waited and waited,
peering down the streets,
checking her watch wondering
where he was and worrying,
Finally she noticed the truck
speeding from the direction of
their home.
"Where have you been?" she
spluttered as she climbed into the
cab.
"Well," he grinned sheepishly,
"when I got home you weren't
there."
After hearing those stories, I'm
not worried about my memory.
I've forgotten many things, but at
least I haven't misplaced a
person - yet.

was held before the regular
meeting for those, who were in-
terested.
Verla Russell's group was in
charge of the program assisted
by Carol Willard and Marion
Frayne.
Town Council member Barb
Bell was guest speaker and ex-
plained some of her duties on the
council.
She said her father's family
was always very active in politics
and this probably motivated her
to become involved.
Other council members treated
her as an equal and she felt there
was absolutely no discrimination
toward the female members.
Each council member is
usually on about three com-
mittees which involves a con-
siderable amount of extra work
but she finds it very interesting
and rewarding and recommends
public office to any interested
person.

One sure way to make fur-
nishings last longer and look
better, whether at home or in the
office, is to maintain a proper
level of humidification.
The Portable Appliance
Manufacturers Association
(PAMA) says a portable
humidifier can be an economical
insurance policy during cold
winter months.
Wood, from which most fur-
niture is constructed, is a
hygroscopic substance, which
means it is sensitive to changes
in the moisture content of the air
around it.
A piece of wood will seek to es-
tablish a balance condition by
either gaining or losing
moisture.
The problem lies in the fact
that as wood picks up and gives
off moisture, it also swells and
shrinks. The conditions created
during this process, unfortunate-
ly, are not uniform. The wood
can warp, sometimes crack, and
often pull loose at the joints,
The degree of expansion and
contraction relates directly to
the way the wood was cut from
the tree. There is little moisture-
movement along the grain, but
considerably more across the
grain. Also, different types of
wood react differently to
changes in their moisture con-
tent.
Most furniture may contain
several different kinds of wood,
including man-made com-
positions such as plywood and
chipboard. There may be many
different forces working at once
as each piece swells and shrinks
in its own way, according to the
changes in the relative humidity
level.
The most serious problems
result when two different types
of wood are joined together. One
may swell or shrink more than
the other causing warping, bow-
ing or separations at corners.
Furniture manufacturers know
how different pieces of wood will
react in given situations and
have developed various techni-
ques for avoiding or minimizing
the effects of moisture-
movement. They can construct
the product to allow for a certain
amount of leeway as the wood
undergoes different movements.
The furniture manufacturer
has done his best to produce a
trouble-free product, but the
proud owner of that product can
also do his part in maintaining a
beautiful piece of furniture.
Obviously everyone cannot
keep his furniture in an environ-
ment of unchanging humidity
and temperature levels the way
museums do with valuable works
