By ELAINE TOWNSHEND
For the past few weeks,
I've avoided mentioning the
phrases "end of August" and
"summer's almost over,"
because they are
synonymous with "Sep-
tember" which is
synonymous with "school"
which is a dirty word in the
minds of several teen-age
relatives and friends of
mine.
But now that September
has settled inevitably over
us, I feel I can safely
reminisce about the summer
of 1979, which brought some
"firsts" for me,
My first taste of
Maritime life in June was
everything I expected and
more. The only disap:
pointment was that two
weeks was not long enough to
see all the sights, but at least
I have the incentive to go
back another year.
My first experience in a
non-English-speaking sit-
uation was not as trying as I
had feared. Ordering two
chicken breasts plus one hot
chicken sandwich for two
people was the only casualty.
My first flat tire happened
on a country road which was
not too far' from home but
was not familiar to me.
Fortunately I was near a
farmhouse, and when I
asked to use the phone, one
of the residents took pity on a
damsel in distress who did
well to know where the spare
tire was let alone how to put
it on. He changed the tire and
refused payment. Thank
goodness a rain storm held
September, and our fall
programme is well un-
derway. Tuesday morning at
9:15 a.m. woodwdrking shop
male residents were busy
making serviette holders.
Wednesday afternoon we
held our fashion show. Many.
beautiful wedding dresses
were modelled by our staff
members. The programme
started off with staff acting
out a mock wedding.
Bertha Gibb sang two
appropriate songs for the
occasion, accompanied by
Frank Bissett on. the organ.
Mr. Bissett played the piano
during the fashion show.
Among the thirty dresses
modelled, there was a 1930
wedding gown right up to a
gown worn at a wedding
.three weeks before.
M.C. for the show was Mrs.
Mary Gibbings. Models were
Mrs. Cindy Fleet, Mrs.
Marion Knox, Mrs. Eleanor
Falconer, Mrs. MaryLou
Driscoll, Miss Wendy Kloss,
Mrs. Judy Dykstra, Mrs.
Evelyn Archer, Mrs, Lynne
Adams, Mrs. Dianne Elliott,
Mrs. Rita Leppinton, Miss
Patricia Postma, Mrs. Ettie
Hugill, Mrs. Susan Blan-
chard and Mrs. Faith
Taylor.
Special thanks to the girls
who brought in the wedding
dresses, the girls who
modelled them, K.C. Cooke
for the lend of the flowers
and the candelabras, Bar-
tliffs for the loan of the
decorated wedding cake, I
would like to thank the girls
behind the scene who helped
the models dress and un-
dress. I would also like to
thank our Mr. Lester for
taking the Vido. We were
glad to see such a large
off until he was through.
In another motoring
"first", my car decided that
a sputtering two-miles-an-
hour was fast enough to get
me through the busy main
street of a summer town at
noon. Thanks to a mechanic,
who took time from his lunch
break to follow my jerky
progress to a garage, I
escaped a towing charge and
was smoothly on my way in
less than an hour.
In mid-August, I gained
my first experience at
judging a Queen of the Fair
contest. A few days before
the fair, I was asking
myself: "Why did I get
myself in for this? I don't
know what I'm supposed to
do " ,
Then common sense
prevailed: "When the night
comes, I'll ask the other
judges for some tips."
There were three judges.
It was the first time for all of
us, and I was back to square
one.
Fortunately the master of
ceremonies knew what he
was doing. The competition
was divided into three
categories, and he explained
the point system by which
each contestant should be
judged, The rest was up to
us, and the girls didn't make
it easy. They were seven
attractive and articulate
young ladies. During a
private conversation with
each of them, my natural
interest in people sometimes
carried me away and I forgot
I was supposed to be
marking them on poise,
conversational ability, etc.,
audience, and hope everyone
enjoyed the show.
Huronview would like to
welcome Jean Sheppard,
Ethel Sturdy, and Marjory
Boyce. These ladies are all
from the Goderich area.

Streets.
etc., instead of just chatting.
That was tough! The other
judges were the same, and
maybe that's why we were
ten minutes late,
Next came their speeches
in front of the audience.
Having done some public
speaking myself, I could
sympathize with them. At
the end of each speech, we
judges bowed our heads to
score sheets, and after the
last speech, we added up
figures without benefit of a
calculator. (That's probably
why we ran another ten
minutes overtime.)
A seven-way tie would
have made our job much
easier, but it doesn't work
that way. We compared
notes, and strangely enough,
we agreed without dissen-
sion on Queen of the Fair and
her runner-up.
The enthusiastic response
of the audience, when the
