The Wingham Advance-Times, 1965-10-28, Page 5Wingham C.641UTr • Hallowe'en Party Again this year the girls of the Wingham C. G, I, T. cast aside their middies the last Tuesday in October and donned fascinating garbs for a Hallowet • en party. Since these girls will spend part of Saturday collect- ing for Unicef from the Wing - ham residents they deserve this fun -time as a, reward. The Unicef money will be turned in at 7 o'clock Saturday at the United Church. Fifty-two girls plus their leaders gathered in the gyre of the United Church for the party.. The senior group did not meet this week. Mrs. M. MacLennan and Mr. I. Kersell judged the '" costume parade and chose a Hindu as the most anonymous character at the party. When unmasked, a leader, Mrs. M. Ritchie was discovered. The prize was won by an un- known black bear in which cos- tume Linda Paul was masquer- aded. Jane Bateson, as Marie Antoinette was judged the pret- tiest costumed lady. The orig- inal prizes were given to a plumber, Sue Brenzil and a Ku Klux Klan member, Barbara • Hetherington. The national award was won by an East In- dian couple, Ann Welwood and Rhonda Bell. The mosi note- worthy couple were an angel and a devil, Linda Lockridge • and Linda Cerson. Following the Grand March, a guessing game was held, then a series of relay races. Trying to find jelly beans buried in flour without using one's hands produced very pale faces and passing an orange to another's neck caused interesting pos- tures. Playing soccer while seated on the floor wasn't as easy as it sounds either! 0 A a Married at Goderich Baskets of white gladioli and pink tinted baby mums decorat- ed the Salvation Army Citadel, Goderich for the wedding of Nora Mary Whitehead of Gode- rich and John Edward Currell of Galt.

Dear Ann Landers: We have a six -room house, Our children are married and gene but we still don't have a guest room. Why? Because our home has been used as a dumping ground .for all the junk our children "have no place for," Our oldest daughter was mar- ried 15 years .ago. What could be a guest room is loaded with paraphernalia she left here. Every time I threaten to clear out the room she says, "Don't you dare throw out anything until I look it over." Last night she and her hus- band were here for dinner. I said, "Now is a good time to look over the odds and ends so I can clear out that room." Her husband replied, "We don't want to clutter up our house with that junk." Our house they can clutter up, but not their own. I need someone who is smarter than I to tell me how to handle this. —HORNSWAGGLED, Dear Horn: Many people Who write to me know darned well what they ought to do. They just need someone to tell them to do it, Notify your children that they have till noon next Mon- day to decide what they'd like to take 'home. Let them know that on Tuesday the Salvation Army or the Goodwill Indus- tries will be over to haul out Whatever they don't take. And then stick by your word. 0--0--0 Dear Ann Landers: Last summer we encountered a ,de- pressing situation among the metallurgists employed by a large firm in Tennessee. It was the same story the summer be- fore in Newark. The men make good salaries but metallurgists are so scarce and the profes- sion so demanding that the men work six and seven days a week, often until 11:00 p.m. The wives are frustrated and lonely. The children know their daddy only as a big person who walks in at odd hours, gulps his food, wallops them for be- ing noisy and then leaves. Is it any wonder that many kids today are so frightened and in- secure that they fail in school, cheat, steal and break down emotionally? What can a wife do to make her husband cut down his working hours and pay more attention to his children?— INCLUDE ME IN. • Dear Included: The father who works, works and spends Little time with his family may insist he is doing it for them— but it isn't really true. He does it because he'd rather work than be with wife said children. Films on Leper Missions Shown at Goforth Aux.
