The mad- ing was "it's never too late to learn." Kay O'Rourke introduced the guest speaker Frances Malone. Frances showed slides on her trip to Saudi Arabia. It was very interesting. Frances' husband was working for Bell Telephone and was sent over to Saudi Arabia. Frances got to go with her husband. They were gone for five years. It was a great experience for both of them. Olive Papple thanked Frances and presented her with a gift. Lunch was served by Jean Key, Betty Hulley and Evelyn Carter. The next meeting will be held Sept. 6 at Niola Lawson's at 7:30 p.m. There will be a guest speaker. Homecoming success BY JEAN ROSS To echo the words of 'Editor Tim', "Wasn't that a Party?" Our paranoia, fears, and anxiety all turned into 'Bill's dream', when the people came and the sun shone. If the world would only follow the example of co-oper- ation and teamwork shown by the service clubs and commun- ity groups for the Home- coming, there would be "Peace on Earth." How refreshing to see so many people (some naturally of different opinions) resolving any differences for such a successful weekend. The Homecoming souvenir book is available at the Library for a donation to the Library building fund. The Library will be moving to Stewart Bros. store soon. Anyone who had pictures at the Homecoming headquarters, may pick them up at the Broome's Hobby shop. A certain proof that the children also came to the Homecoming was the Teddy Bear Picnic and the Teddy Bear Clinic. Trudy Broome had more than 100 little ones to read to. The weather was likely a big factor, for the bus service provided and the parking areas weren't utilized very much. The Homecoming Commiuee will have one or two more meetings to tie up some loose ends and pay the bills. The reports and suggestions will be put in the archives, so they are available for reference in 2005. I'd like to express my grati- tude to the Huron Expositor for letting me 'ramble on' about Homecoming. Only once, they prudently "deleted" a wee poem that likely avoided a libel suit.
