A large pond and waterfall were added to By Ruth Skillings PRO Mary Smith, curator of the St. Marys Museum was the second speaker at the London Area Tweedsmuir History Workshop -on Tuesday, Aug. 6. Smith congratulated and expressed her appreciation to all Branches for compiling the history of their communities as well as documenting the present day history as it is made. The St. Marys Museum was started by the Queen Alexandria Branch of the Women's Institute located in St. Marys. They began collecting and cataloguing local artifacts, displaying them in empty store windows. The collection got too large to handle in that way, so they were able to persuade the town to turn over a large home in the centre of St. Jeff Conaway will not be appearing in Same Time, Next Year scheduled to play at The Centre In The Square on Thursday, Nov. 7 as a result of a recent injury.

CHRIS MORGAN ALL FAITHS PASTORAL CENTRE BENMILLER, 524-5724 CHRISTENINGS give the family a wonderful view as they sit on their deck. At Gerry and Linda Knechtel's, the designer used the Stratford Festival Theatre as inspiration for the new deck which is surrounded by low maintenance, year-round gardens. A , sampling of pork products will be available at this location. The small suburban garden is private and peaceful yet includes flowers, butterflies, fish and moving water. Though the pond freezes over in the winter the still-moving waterfall continues to attract birds Marys, surrounded by a park, for a museum. A museum board of directors was organized and they took over the running and collecting of material from the Branch, which later disbanded. It is now also a research centre for local history. The Journal Argus microfiched its papers from 1857 to 1912. The microfich and the reader are stored at the museum and available for use by the public. She urged every Branch to make photocopies of their Tweedsmuir histories as well as putting them on microfiche. Extra copies can be stored at the museum. Smith touched on the life and work of the Eaton family; who started their first store in Kirkton, moving to St. Marys for a number of years before relocating in Toronto.

The urban garden features perennials, a woodlot and orchard all while dealing with two factors - the homeowners wanted no grass to cut and the yard was predominantly shady. One landscaper welcomes visitors to his own property to show off the perennials, evergreens, flowering shrubs, waterfall and swimming pool areas. The four garden centres which will welcome visitors to enjoy their landscaped gardens are Hamlet Gardens, Cozyns' Garden Gallery, the Winnipeg statute of Timothy Eaton will not be coming to St. Marys after all. Another outstanding citizen of St. Marys was Dr. Albert Berry who developed a water purification system which was used in this area and around the world. Each District brought a soup tureen and told the story behind it. Each Branch in Perth South, which hosted' this event, had a display. Some had been entered in the St. Marys Fair. One was on the Queen's Jubilee with pictures of the Royal family covering all of those years. There were all kinds of egg cups, teapots, a wedding dress and needlework, which were most interesting. The first speaker was Edythe Diebel of Kitchener, a retired school teacher who loves to cook. She had a wonderful display of old cookbooks Sebringville Garden Centre and Klomps' Garden Centre. , Each centre has its own specialty, whether the master gardeners at Hamlet Gardens or icicle pansies at Sebringville. Cozyn's -will offer cheese and refreshments and a lesson in fresh garden flower arranging. Union Gas, Sobeys and Schneider foods will offer visitors to Klomps a hotdog and drink for just $2. Birtch Wipery will also be present for wine sampling by stoppers-by. The $16 tickets are available at the garden centres mentioned or at and newer ones, as well as many utensils used years ago in the kitchen. She even had some samples of Mother's Orange Cake as well as two kinds of oatmeal cookies. Heritage cooking came from overseas and new settlers had to adapt their old recipes to what was available here. They cooked by the seasons using whatever -was available at any given time. Very old recipes usually just listed the ingredients and very little 'method'. It was assumed all cooks had been taught by their mother how to do the method. She had recipes clipped from papers and handwritten. She goes to auction sales and sometimes picks up recipe collections. Next year's workshops will be at the Auburn Hall, Aug. 5.

Regular admission. fiattficoming .AlC avtiagce Zmed in 'Same Time' WI hosts Tweedsmuir workshop Drowsy Drivers on Canadian Roads The 2002 Nerves of Steel Aggressive Driving Study, commissioned by TheSteelAlliance and Canada Safety Council, found that 76 per cent of Canadians say sleep-deprived drivers are a common problem on Canadian roads. One out of 10 drivers admitted to falling asleep behind the wheel in the past year; perhaps dozing off for a fraction of a second. Over half admitted to driving while drowsy. Tips to Avoid Drowsy Driving Drive only when rested. Don't take the wheel if you feel fatigued, no matter when or where you are driving. Have some sleep or exercise first, avoid or delay the trip, or let a rested person drive. Keep your mind alert. Listen to talk shows or up-temp music. Try to have company on long trips. Change position frequently, keeping your head up and shoulders back. Chew gum. Actively watch road signs and traffic. Find a safe place to stop. On a long trip, every couple of hours or if you start to feel sleepy, pull off the road for a break, exercise and fresh air. When possible, spend the night at a motel or park in a safe place and take a nap. Don't rely on coffee! Be careful about what you eat and drink. Coffee, sugar or other stimulants may wake you up physically but they do not ensure -mental alertness. Drink water, juice or soft drinks low in sugar and caffeine. Choose high-protein snacks over heavy or fatty foods such as fries. Avoid alcohol and medications (including cold remedies). If you require medication, consult with your doctor to minimize effects on driving. Drive defensively. Be prepared to prevent collisions in spite of the actions of others — including drivers around you who may be aggressive or drowsy. Canada Safety Council www.safety-council org
