We still have room for a few more, and we'd like them for the beverage, diet, microwave and casserole categories. It's been great fun reading, sorting and organizing these recipes. But even more fun than that is trying some out. Seeing all these unusual dishes has prompted me to try some exotic ones of my own. When I was in journalism school, the first rule I learned was "Know thy reader." In other words, there is no use writing a story that your reader doesn't want to read. I've learned that the same rule should apply in cooking - - "Know thy eater," or something to that effect. There is nothing more frustrating than getting a meal ready that nobody likes. The other day I planned a fondue supper for guests. As we sat outdoors I mentioned my work with the cookbook, and the conversation moved to fondues. Before he knew what we were serving, our guest went into a long story on fondues. He complained that they were frustrating to eat, because with every little By JOY SCHEIFELE In a well fought battle the Walton bantam boys team came out the victors in the fourth annual fastball tournament sponsored by the Ailsa Craig Minor Ball ,Association over the week- end.

As I began to wonder what I was going to serve for dinner, he added that his idea of a good fondue would be heat the cooking oil in a 45 gallon drum, and use a pitch fork with a T-bone steak on each tine. Another time I decided to try a dessert fondue, and I didn't have much better luck. I had two guests, and I made a chocolate sauce in the fondue pot and offered them bananas and mar- shmallows to put on the tiny forks to dip. One guest was allergic to bananas and the other hated marshmallows. This tragic episode turned out for the best. The flame under the fondue pot wouldn't stay lit, and the chocolate sauce hardened. Being resourceful, I cut the hardened chocolate into squares, and served it as fudge, which both visitors enjoyed. Another time I tried serving barbequed shishkabob. I put juicy pieces of beef in between big slices of onion and green pepper on the skewers. When I came back from the bar- beque, and announced that the shishkabobs were on, a dinner guest said she hoped I hadn't used green pepper and onion because they gave her severe indigestion. Oh, well. Back to meat and potatoes! Pickering on behalf of the Ailsa Craig Lions club. By MRS. FRED BOWDEN "A prescription for Happiness" was the subject chosen by Mr. Paul Schott for his sermon in the Cen- tralia United Church, Sunday morning and used the "Beatitudes" upon which to base his thoughts. Jesus never set a higher standard for others than He was willing to live by . We must be willing to humble ourselves and become like little children. Christianity is not an easy road, said the speaker, but suggested that we use the Beatitudes as our road map. The children's story was told by Mr. Schott.

Enrollment forecasts last spring had indicated that an additional classroom was needed in accordance with annual increased enrollments at the school. The Middlesex County Board of Education agreed to open an additional classroom at the school beginning Sep- tember 1st, and one more teacher was added to the teaching staff. Unfortunately during the summer several families in the area with children at- tending the East Williams School moved to other localities, These moves had not been anticipated and resulted in the decreased enrollment at the school. Monday morning found the children and staff being regrouped. Larger classes were formed to facilitate the loss of one teacher and the portable classroom, and staff hurriedly made necessary curriculum changes. The present enrollment of 285 with the existing eight classrooms for grades 1 to 8, is in accordance with the Board's average enrollment figures for the County elementary schools. miszolan,.4agam,v4 Mary's musings BY MARY ALDERSON Walton boys in Craig tournament TEL, 810-2:1E-2268 to Business Directory G.
