And we are hearing how to cut down on these factors in our lives. But knowing doesn't necessarily mean doing—witness how many people keep on smoking cigarettes in spite of warnings of lung cancer.

Mrs. Don MacGregor opened the worship with a reading "A Creed for Mothers" followed by prayer given by Mrs, Clarence McDonald. The Ten com- mandments were repeated in unison and Mrs. Bev. Skinner sang "If You Know the Lord", Mrs, Jim Chapman spoke on Teenagers in our community and asked, would you like to be a teenager today? She reminisced about the closeness of the com- munities in our time as to the community of the teenager Exeter church ladies discuss teenage life Pape 'Timms-Advocate, February 10, 1977 Odds n Ends Just one of those days today. There are approximately 1400 teens in the southern part of Huron County between the ages of 14 and 19, She also had figures on how active our teens are in the community. Statistics show that 1 in 7 has been involved with the law due to alcohol. Mr. Hern of the Children's Aid feels that there is no generation gap but the problems are Com- munication, Love-self esteem, alcoholism, drugs. Analyzing communication into 4 sections as seeing,touching, talking, listening are all important but the most important for a parent to do is to listen to your child and feed back their feelings to them that they really feel. An excerise by Mrs. Chapman and Mrs. Winston Shapton revealed that the teenager did have a sense of values of her own . but had been swayed by the crowd. Values are caught, not taught. automatic choke. He drives a '67 Ambassador that °starts like a charm", Ipoint out that his car is plugged in every night, but he shrugs off my argument with a line that's too long and filled with too many mechanical terms for me to repeat, If I had been smart yesterday morning, I would have stopped at the garage and told the mechanics, "She's all yours! Fix her." Instead I drove straight home, dooming myself to another battle on the next morning and the next morning and the next morning, until the car finally wins. After lunch, I returned to my notes, which didn't seem as promising then as they did in the morning; I decided to start over again. When I write, I become oblivious to everything else, and it took a sharp hunger pain to remind me suppertime was approaching. After surveying the frig, I concluded that cold beef, some boiled carrots and a baked potato was the quickest menu. I returned to my typewriter, and the next thing I noticed was the aroma of burning carrots. To avoid the same results with the potato I removed it from the oven immediately. Therefore, I dined on over-cooked carrots and an under-cooked potato; for- tunately, the cold beef was just about right. Later, with the charred carrot pot scrubbed and the column finished, I thought the day might end on a brighter note than it began. I had several phone calls to make, some of them long distance. If I had been smart, I would have given up after the first five tries; three busy signals and two no answers is an omen of worse to come. But I tried once more, and that was the last straw. Nothing irritates me more than dialing a wrong number by long distance. I went to bed telling myself it was "just one of those days", and hoping those days didn't come in twos. St. Bartholomew's Anglican Church, Ottawa, was the setting for the solemnization of matrimony between Rebecca Dell Fulcher and William David Heaslip on Saturday, January 22: The Venerable William Christie, assisted by the Reverend Canon Lionel Bruce, officiated. Entering the church on the arm of her brother, Victor Fulcher, the bride wore her grand- mother's wedding dress of white embroidered lace over satin. Nola Fulcher was her sister's maid-of-honour. She carried pink 'carnations with natural star; flower. Glenn Hansen acted as best man and the ushers were Jamie Fulcher and John Heaslip. During the signing of the register, Jim Heaslip played classical guitar selections. Following the service, a reception and dinner were held at the Chateau Laurier Hotel. Grace was said by Bruce Fulcher. A toast to the bride was proposed by Victor Fulcher and responded to by the groom. Among those present were Mrs. Rebecca Anderson, Brandon Manitoba, grandmother of the bride and Mrs. William Myatt, Hamilton, grandmother of the groom. The bride, an honours student at Carleton University, is the elder daughter of Mrs. Eilleen Burrows, Winnipeg. The groom is a graduate of the University of Waterloo. He is the eldest son of Mr. & Mrs. William Heaslip, King City, Ontario. The young couple will make their home in Ottawa where the groom is a management con- sultant. Rebekahs plan sale of baking The Pride of Huron Rebekah Lodge No. 338 held their regular meeting Wednesday, February 2, with 35 members present. There will be a bake sale on February 12 at 2 p.m. at Fisher's Hardware. The baking should be in by 1 p.m. at the side door. The assembly Warden will pay her official visit to the Pride of Huron Rebekah Lodge No. 338-en--- March 2. heart and circulatory disease were identified, and the link with heavy smoking, lack of exercise and overeating became clear. They might well ask, "If the typical Canadian diet was identified as a possible troublemaker, why didn't more people make preventive changes in their eating habits sooner?" Of course, many people have already started to cut down on calories—to maintain a trim figure. And anyone who has learned that his blood cholesterol is high is likely to be following his doctor's advice to modify his diet—for high cholesterol values go along with an increased risk of heart attack. Simply stated, the modification involves a switch in protein to more fish and poultry, less red meat; the substitution of polyunsaturated fats (like Mazola corn oil) for saturated fats (like butter and lard); a limitation of foods rich in cholesterol (eggs, organ meats and certain sea food) ; and more liberal use of fruits, vegetables, nuts and cereals. Overall, there's a cut in saturated fat, cholesterol and total calories, and an in- crease in fibre. Easy to do—and the resulting diet is both ap- petizing and nutritious, Everyone who plans a family menu has a responsibility to make thoughtful choices from the overwhelming variety of foods available. Every person who chooses his own food should understand the real dangers of an unwise diet. For generations, there was a mystery surrounding heart at- tacks. Recently, medical and nutritional research has revealed that what and how much we we eat may influence our chances of having a heart attack. No one can say for sure but the preventive approach could decrease the number of deaths from car- diovascular disease. By altering your diet to reduce saturated fat and cholesterol, you could be taking a step into the future—now! 01111111111111111111notimmillintinittinImmunininimomm111111111111111mitinimillinte= OUR STOREWIDE CLEARANCE CONTINUES SAVINGS UP TO 50 0 DEPA LL RTMENTS IN A In llllllllllllllll n11111111nIn lllllll nInInInInIn lllllllllllll InnIn lllllll nOnInInInIn1 111111111 1: BABY BONUS DRAW WINNER Mrs. Rohde of Woodham was the winner in our recent baby bonus draw.

If I had been smart, I would have crawled back into bed and cancelled the day. Instead I plodded on. By nine-thirty, I was ready to start writing or to go to the Post Office. The sun was filtering through heavy gray clouds that have become all too familiar-this winter. I should have taken ad- sVantage of the reasonably clear weather, but I had some ideas for a column floating around my head. By ten-thirty, my ideas were typed on paPer and snow was falling outside. Then began my daily con- frontation with my car, which has as much difficulty starting in the morning as I do, Yesterday morning I didn't think she'd make it. The battery ground slower and slower, lower and lower. Just when I considered giving up, the motor chugged. After more grinding, she coughed twice, then three times and finally she was purring like a kitten with distemper.
