Many costumed characters parade in school gym Witches, beautiful fairies and princesses, spooky look- ing creatures, and many other characters paraded in the gym on Halloween, giving the visiting parents and grandparents a great show. Later each class returned to their rooms to play games and eat goodies. The Early Years class made a witch's brew for their party. The brew bubbled and boiled in the cauldron (orange soda pop and ice cream). They had lots of visitors and enjoyed wonderful treats. Thanks to Barb Durrell who helped the class make pipe cleaner cats. Walton by Patty Banks 887-6860 The class also welcomed Hilary and Michael McKague to their school. The Grade Is had fun learn- ing about math using pump- kins. They counted and mea- sured seeds and learned about different weights. A favorite game that they played was the "marshmallow ghost bit- ing game." For details about the game contact a grade one child. Some favorite games that the Grade 2/3 class played was the balloon stomping, mummy, wrap, werewolf tear, and they especially enjoyed breaking their spider pinatas which were full of candies. For Halloween fun the Grade 3/4s designed their own make believe tomb- stones and- wrote their epi- taphs. One of them read that the person died from working himself to death. He would be remembered for being a good worker. Some were remembered for their soccer and hockey skills, some were remembered for what they Residents celebrate Octoberfest Hi, everyone. Did everyone enjoy their turkey dinners and Halloween goodies last month? Our diningroom looked very festive as it was decorated with various pic- tures on the walls, .balloons and orange, yellow and black streamers to celebrate Thanksgiving ' and Halloween. Our residents enjoyed play- ing Scrabble a few times this month with members of Community Living, Egmondville. What a'great opportunity it was to make new friends and compete in a friendly word game. On Oct. 19, Sallie Lawton from Placement Coordination Services in Clinton gave a very informative talk on Long Term Care Placements, "what time is best." Thanks to Sallie for spending a Sat. with us also this was her last official duty with placement. Internet usage lower than predicted Statistics Canada reported last week that only 7.4 per cent of Canadian households use the Internet from their home computers, leaving 92.6 per cent - or 10.6 mil- lion households that don't. Usage is lower than experts predicted. � Seaforth Manor Retirement Home On Oct. 29 we celebrated Octoberfest: First off we enjoyed a fantastic movie on Germany then for supper we ,had mouthwatering Octoberfest sausage with sauerkraut. Then in the evening we kicked up our heels to some polka'music that was supplied by staff on records. We even enjoyed the odd beer so that we would get the "true" feeling of Octoberfest. Many posters of Germany could he found throughout our home so that it felt as if we had travelled on an armchair voyage to Germany. Great fun was had by all. Halloween was observed in many ways at our home. Ruth Vandermeer won- a paper pumpkin face contest. Such artistic drawings we saw. It was difficult to choose a winner. Everyone helped to carve out jack o lanterns for Halloween. It was such "a gooey" time. What fun it was to see all the boys and girls who dressed up in their scary costumes to receive lots of candy this year. Our annual family Christmas dinner will be held on Dec. 5 this year. There is an invitation in this month's billing with all of the infor- mation. We would appreciate a prompt reply so that we may begin our preparations.

Nesbitt, CLU, C.H.F.C. Chartered Financial Consultant Agency Manager, MetLife Most people spend a lifetime accumulat- ing wealth. However, many overlook a few simple ways to preserve this wealth. The following is an overview of what you should consider. Wills A will is a very important part of your financial plan. You and your spouse should both have an up-to-date will pre- pared by a qualified professional, such as a lawyer or notary, to ensure its valid- ity. 11 you die intestate (without a valid will). you lose control over what happens to your assets. This can have serious implications for your estate and benefi- ciaries since provincial laws decide who gets what and when. Power of attorney A power of attorney is alegal document that allows you to appoint a person (the 'attorney') to act on your behall. Generally, it allows for the management of your finances and/or personal care.. 11 also allows you to set out your wishes in advance which can assist your family in making potentially difficult decisions. Without it, they might have to go to court for the authority to act on your behall. Probate tees Provincial probate fees must usually be paid before third parties, such as banks, will transfer and release the assets of the deceased to the executor of the deceased's estate. They are charged In all provinces except Quebec (probate fees are not charged in Quebec when the will is notarized). which has motrvat ed many people to look for ways to reduce of avoid them altogether. A common method of reducing probate fees is to Insure that real estate inter- ests. such as the matnmonial home or cottage, are held as "joint tenants' rather than as 'tenants in common'. By doing so, when one of the joint tenants dies. the property, is automatically transferred to the surviving joint tenant. 11 does not form part of the estate and therefore probate fees are not charged.
