• yourself. I think adult students wonder if
the kids will accept them. I went in there
thinking this was their turf, and I had to
make the effort. The fear is that you won't
be as smart as the kids, that you will look
pretty stupid in class."
She found that the younger students did
accept her, and in fact, she became their
confidante and made some good friends.
She was also fortunate to have a lot of
support at home. "If Tim saw that I had
some heavy duty studying to do, he would
just take the kids and go for an outing."
Even the children, Jenny, 11, David, 9
and Carrie, 7, pitched in to help. They did
extra housework and David drilled his
mother with flash cards while she did
dishes to help her learn her chemistry
nomeclature.
Joan was chosen to give a talk to future
adult students on two separate occasions.
She told them her husband and three
children had accepted the new wife and
mom who opens yet another can at supper
and does ponytails with one hand while
balancing equations with the other.
In addition to balancing school work and
home life, Joan also found time to
volunteer in her dentist's office, for some
practical experience in her chosen
profession.
Dr. Malcolm Wood, St. Thomas dental
surgeon, described her as "extremely
well -motivated, a keen student and a
welcomed asset to my office."
In addition to her family, and the help
she received from the excellent teaching
staff at AVSS, she credits her close friend
and mentor, Noreen Lanning, who went
back to university herself, as giving her
the encouragement she needed to try and
succeed.
For other adult students contemplating
a return to school, Joan says, "Go and do
it."

The Talk of the Town
Every evening during the summer we
are blessed with hundreds of visitors as
flocks of blackbirds settle in the trees and
cattails along the edge of the mill pond.
As they settle down they chirp and twit-
tle and you would think they were ex-
changing all the gossip of the day. A door
slamming or any sudden noise and there
will be complete silence for a few seconds
— then a whirr of wings as they all take off
in a cloud to circle around, then settle back
down again and renew their chatter.
Very early in the morning they take off
again to go about their daily business, only
to return again in the evening.
Saturday, July 16 seemed to be a popular
date for weddings. Married in South
Kinloss Presbyterian Church were Dale
Gilchrist and Mari, rnne Maclntyre while
Ivan Rutledge ano Nancy England ex-
changed vows in the Lucknow
Presbyterian Church. Congratulations to
both of these young couples.
Jack Treleaven has returned home from
St. Joseph's Hospital in London where he
had surgery. We wish him a speedy
recovery.
Donald and Dianne England, Mark and
,ttnew are visiting from Sussex, B.C.
with relatives in the area.
Angela Cranston, Kelly Stevenson and
Adella Andrew enjoyed their week camp-
ing at Silver Lake Camp.
Austin and Mildred Loree spent last
weekend camping with forty other
members of the Loree family at Valens
Conservation Area east of Cambridge.
Also attending from this area were Barb,
Cindy and Melanie Willits. Luckily there
was good a swimming area that helped
everyone combat the heat.

cluded Mrs. Jack Alton, Goderich; Mrs.
Margaret Foulds and daughter Mrs. Helen
Hamor from Paris,Ontario; Mr. and Mrs.
Gerald Pearce from Brantford and Mrs.
