Senior Citizens' Week draws to a close, the Tes- idents seem to be standing tip to, the busy Schedule Of events better than some of the staff and volunteers. Speaking of volunteers, we owe them a really big ',thank- you.” Members of the auxiliary were here every day to look after registration of guests and to help in count- less other, ways. Clinton,Dinettes helped us out. on “pieniop day, Wednesday, June 21st. Many individuals helped in many ways and space would riot permit us to list them all, even if we were sure we would remember them all. Our own staff pitched in to try to make this a memorable week for all residents and we want to publicly thank them. The Sunday morning church service, taken by the regl- ular pastor, Rev,. McWinnie, with special music supplied by the Ontario Street Choir and directed by Doris Mc- Kinley., This was rated by several of the residents as one of the nicest services yet. During the afternoon, the Goderich Bluewater Band, led by Mr. Kalbfleisch, played for the concert on the lawn which was enjoyed by the residents either from the rooms on the west side of the building, oroutdoors along with about one hund- red visitors. The Goderich Senior Citizens Club were in charge of Monday afternoons program and provided an hour and a half of fine entertainment for the crowd of two hundred and fifty. They assisted the volunteers and staff to serve the refreshments, Rev. Youmatoff of Hayfield, a former Padre at the Air Service Base at Clinton, accompanied at the piano by Mrs. Jack Parker, led a lively sing-a- long and contributed several vocal solos on. Tuesday kfternoon. Although the weatherman was not very co-operative for Wednesdclay afternoons picnic, it didn't dampen the spirits of the residents, who gathered in the auditorium along with their guests and forty members of the Wing- ham Senior Citizens Club. The Wingham Club put on a millinery show, which featured styles of the hats of the future which were very practical, made out of such things as bedpans, chambers, bird nests, etc. Each of the hats represented a song with the chorus of nineteen ladies joining in the music melody. The Lions Club of Clinton set some games of chance in the Craft room that proved very popular. Following the showing of slides on activities at Huronview, and sing song, everyone gathered at the main dining room area for the picnic supper. Mrs. Couper of Hensall along with her class of six young people demonstrated spinning and weaving in several areas of the home, on Thursday afternoon. Many of the residents who had remembered the art of carding and spinning the yarn from the sheeps wool, enjoyed the demonstration. Speakers were set up in five different areas in the home so that everyone could enjoy the fine organ music of Ed Stiles, who played many old favour- ites and requests. The Hayfield and Exeter Senior Citizens clubs joined forces to provide a variety program for Family Night. One hundred and twenty took part in the Friday after- noon bingo in the auditorium with some twenty games played with fifty winners. Thirty tables of games were played On Saturday after- noon sponsored by the Happy Citizens Club of Sea-forth. The Antique cars on display during the week were courtesy of William Wells of Clinton. They added an attraction for many of the residents who had driven some of the models in the 1920's. „ • SPECIALS! 1972 Chevelles, Novas, Olds. Cutlass, Delta Royale , Chev.

Sift the powder with dry ingredients for baking or stir it into flour for gravies and sauces. The required amount of water can be added with other liquid ingredients. Skim milk powder can be used in this way for home baking or in any com- mercial milt, from pancakes to puddings, that calls for milk. Recipes using skim milk powder cost less, with no change in nutrition or flavor. The flavor of skim milk powder is much the same as fresh skim milk when substituted for whole, two per cent, or skim milk in cooking. The usual proportion of powd- er to water is about one third cup powder to one cup water. If the amount of water is increased, the concentrated imilk" that re- suits can even be whipped. With a tart flavor such as lemon or Strawberry it can be used as a dessert topping or in chiffon desserts. For tips on skim milk powder and recipes such as a light Lemon Chiffon Pie, write for the pamphlet, Skim Milk Powder, Publication 1106, avail- able from the Information Div- lion, Canada Department Of Agricultittei Ottawa, Ontario. l&—THE BRUSSELS POST, JUNE 28, 1972 4
