With your support on June 9, we can make it happen." McKINLEY BELIEVES a strong, Ontario is essential to the future of Canada. McKINLEY BELIEVES the socialistic threat to private initiative poses the greatest threat our province, its economy and its people face today. McKINLEY BELIEVES we must guard against robbing people of the privilege of looking after themselves while maintaining social programs for those unable to maintain themselves. McKINLEY BELIEVES farmers want to be free to make their own decisions based on the good management of their resources. McKINLEY BELIEVES his life-time of practical farm and business experience plus fifteen years in municipal government give him the knowledge to make his voice effective. VOTE FOR The man with your future in mind PC/ 11111111111111111111 By ELAINE TOWNSEND Last summer a friend of mine from London visited his native land pf Belgium. Before his trip, he asked whether,I'd like to cor- respond with someone overseas. "Sure!" I replied eagerly, "That would,be interesting. Two months,later I received a letter from a fifteen-year-old girl; the next week I heard from a twenty-year-old; in a few more weeks, a letter arrived from a nurse, and after Christmas came a note from a middle-aged lady. When the fourth prospective penpal contacted me, I panicked. I had anticipated only one corn respondent, but I feared my friend had given my name and address to half the population of Belgium, As my Canadian friends will affirm,' letter writing is not my forte. One girl friend, who has worked in Toronto for eighteen months, has yet to receive a letter from me. But I haven't received one from her either, When she comes home to visit her parents, we catch up on all the news. Another friend lives near Windsor. Each year, we ex- change quarterly up-dates of our activities. The last time she wrote, though, she mentioned that she hadn't heard from me for so long she forgot whose turn it was to write and decided it must be hers. I hope she was right. Another girl friend moved from London to Niagara a year ago, Last fall I penned a three- paragraph letter telling her I was coming for a visit, and this spring I jotted a five-line an- nouncement that I was coming back. I can't remember the last time I wrote to my sister, but recently I found a note from her that must have been one of the last we ex- changed. She mentioned that "Davy" insisted he had to sleep on the top bunk of his new bunk beds. Now she has to look up at him even when he's standing, Odds n' Ends Pen pals and if she referred to him as "Davy" she'd risk a stormy teen-age reprimand. It is unnecessary for us to cor- respond now, because her house has become almost another home to me, Her husband began tabulating my room and board shortly after the wedding. That's sixteen years ago, and guess how much he has collected, Not one cent, Returning to the subject of letter writing, with my track record, how can I keep up with four new penpals? I answered the first letter of each and ex- plained my predicament, If they could be satisfied with a less- than-prompt correspondent, we could probably learn a lot from each other. The answers spelled relief for they were all in similar positions. Although we corres- pond irregularly, I have already learned many things. For example, from the fifteen- year-old I discovered Donny Os- mond is as popular over there as he is here, She also revealed that high prices force many Belgians to fly to England to shop for fur- niture and clothes. Meanwhile, the twenty-year- old talked about her job in a bakery in a monastery, which is almost a village in itself. She also explained that in the northern part of Belgium the language is Dutch, in the southern part French is spoken and in a small region the people speak German. The nurse sent a snapshot of her wedding. Some Belgian wed- dings are unusual. The bride and groom dress similar to Canadian brides and grooms, but the guests wear old-fashioned costumes. The other lady's family has been involved in diamond cutting for generations, She shocked this Canadian gal with the revelation that in Belgium diamonds aren't considered a girl's best friend; they're just another piece of jewelry. From me, the penpals learned one thing — Canada has rotten winters. "Take time for all things" was the theme for the Huron south district women's institute annual meeting, held in the Grand Bend United Church, 1Vlay 19. Mrs. Roylance Westcott district president presided for the session. The•meeting opened with the Institute Ode and the Mary Stewart Collect. A minutes silence for departed members, followed by the beautiful hymn "Beyond the Sunset", sang by Mrs. Louise Oke,accompanied by Miss Ann Brodie. Miss Ruth Skinner introduced the new F,W.I.O. board director Mrs. William Porter who then ratified the district directors. • Mrs. Lloyd Ballantyne secretary-treasurer read the minutes and reported a balance of $159.95 in the treasury. Mrs. Westcott speaking on the theme "take time for all things" advised members to slow down, relax, enjoy life and the world around us, remember this day gone by never comes again. Take time to think , for thoughts are the source of power. Take time to love, make living worthwhile. Always take time to laugh, it's music of the soul. Kippen WI conducted a lively sing a long, then Mrs. James Drummond presided for the reports of the standing com- mittees. Acting Home Economist Mrs. Loralee Marshall reported 900 girls in 4-H clubs. Featuring Fruit is the new fall project. A workshop on Quilts was con- ducted in the county for W.I. members and proved to be very well attended. A pot-luck lun- cheon followed the morning activities. ' Mrs. Herb Maluske, F.W.I.O. president, was guest speaker for the afternoon taking as her topic "Seeds for Thought". Love is the greatest seed we can sow. God's gift to you and me. Sow the seeds- of friendship for the coming years. All women are like seeds in their institute branches, growing, blossoming like flowers, but flowers fade and die and we should be planning for future years by getting new members. Mrs. Maluske was presented with a gift by Mrs. Ray Rader on behalf of Huron South District. Pennies for Friendship was taken by Crediton W.I. A craft display by Zurich WI and one on Huron County by the public -relations officer proved interesting. Mrs. Tom Hern provided piano selections.
