Times-Advocate, 1978-04-13, Page 7gBy ELAINE TOWNSHEND
I used to pride myself on
being punctual. If I said I’d
meet a person at 8 p.m,, I’d
be there at 8 p.m. or a little
before. Sometimes I’d drive
around putting in time,
because I’ve heard in this
day and age it’s impolite to
arrive early.
But in the last few years
my problem has reversed,
and I’m beginning to call
myself Lainie Come Lately.
My trouble started when
the speed limit was lowered.
I forgot to give myself extra
time to get whore I was go
ing. As a result, either the
speed limit or my time of
arrival had to change. I ad
mit my foot often became
heavy on the gas pedal, but
then I decided it was bettor
to arrive late than never and
better to arrive apologizing
for being late than fuming
over a traffic ticket.
Besides I had written a
column in favour of the

lower speed limit because I
felt it was a significant safe
ty measure, and if I had
received a
speeding. I would have
fallen prey to a lot of
wisecracks.
I told myself I’d just have
to leave earlier, but
budgeting my time proved
as difficult as budgeting my
money. Instead of giving
myself more time to get
ready, I seemed to bo get
ting ready in less time than I
had previously needed. And
when I left the apartment. I
was always puffing.
How many times have you
slammed your house door,
run to your car, driven as
fast or a little faster than
the law allowed, parked in
the first spot you could find,
run into a room and collaps
ed on a chair thirty seconds
before the meeting begins?
At last, you have time to
relax and to think: "Whow, I
made it. I never got ready so
fast in all life.” Then comes
the horrifying thought: "I
must have forgotten
something! ”
You take a quick yet sub
tle glance to assure yourself
that you’re wearing all your
clothes and that the essen
tial fasteners arc fastened.
If you can’t excuse yourself
to another room to check
more closely, you take a
mental inventory, relying on
memory to tell you whether
you combed your hair,
whether one eyelid is blue
and the other is green,
whether you are wearing
one earring or two and
whether your shoos match.
If no one is staring at you
and if you don’t hear a
chorus of giggles behind
your back, you can be fairly

certain you look alright.
Then you begin to wonder
what else you could have
forgotten.
Ironically people often
forget the most important
things for their line of work.
For example, a minister
forgets his sermon, a
speaker forgets his speech,
a secretary forgets the
minutes of the last meeting,
a student forgets his books
and soon.
The solution to the
problem depends on the per
son and the situation.
Sometimes it calls for con
fessing, apologizing, rushing
home to get the item or fak
ing it.
So far. I’ve been lucky and
haven’t forgotten anything
essential. The next tjme I’m
late, don’t worry I’m just
checking.

Over the past two months
the Ministry of Agriculture
& Food has sponsored a
course for women in Huron
County entitled, “Per
sonalize Your Pattern”.
In this course the par
ticipants have taken a
pattern they already own or
a new one and made proper
adjustments to ensure a
perfect fit for their gar
ments. Then some
members have gone on to re-
design parts of their
patterns to give a “new”
look. This includes changing
the position of darts, conver
ting darts to gathers
tucks, adding pockets
different necklines
sleeves.
The members seem
have enjoyed this course
thoroughly and would like to
encourage you to come to
their Summary Days. These
Summary
follows:
Ontario
Church, Clinton, April 18th,
7:30 p.m. and St. Andrew’s
Presbyterian Church,

At these programs the
