But now that September has settled inevitably over us, I feel I can safely reminisce about the summer of 1979, which brought some "firsts" for me. My first taste of Maritime life in June was everything I expected and more. The only disap- pointment was that two weeks was not long enough to see all the sights, but at least I have the incentive to go back another year. My first experience in a non -English-speaking sit- uation was not as trying as I had feared. Ordering two chicken breasts plus one hot chicken sandwich for two people was the only casualty. My first flat tire happened on a country road which was not too far from home but was not familiar to me. Fortunately I was near a farmhouse, and when I asked to use the phone, one of the residents took pity on a damsel in distress who did well to know where the spare tire was let alone how to put it on. He changed the tire and refused payment. Thank goodness a rain storm held off until he was through. In another motoring "first", my car decided that a sputtering two -miles -an - hour was fast enough to get me through the busy main street of a summer town at noon. Thanks to a mechanic, who took tinie from his lunch break to follow my jerky progress to a garage, I escaped a towing charge and was smoothly on my way in less than an hour. In mid-August, I gained my first experience at judging a Queen of the Fair contest. A few days before the fair, 1 was asking myself: "Why did I get myself in for this? I don't know what I'm supposed to do," Then common sense prevailed: "When the night comes, I'll ask the other judges for some tips." There were three judges. It was the first time for all of us, and I was back to square one. Fortunately the master of ceremonies knew what he was doing. The competition was divided into three categories, and he explained the point system by which each contestant should be judged. The rest was up to us, and the girls didn't make it easy. They were seven attractive and articulate young ladies. During a private conversation with each of them, my natural interest in people sometimes carried me away and i forgot I was supposed to be marking them on poise, conversational ability, etc., Fall program is on for Huronview folk ' September, and our fall programme is well un- derway. Tuesday morning at 9:15 a.m. woodworking shop male residents were busy making serviette holders. Wednesday afternoon we held our fashion show. Many beautiful wedding dresses were modelled by our staff members. The programme started off with staff acting out a mock wedding. Bertha Gibb sang two appropriate songs for the occasion. accompanied by Frank Bissett on the organ. Mr. Bissett played the piano during the fashion show. Among the thirty dresses modelled. there was a 1930 wedding gown right up to a gown worn at a wedding three weeks before. M.C. for the show was Mrs. Mary Gibbings. Models were Mrs. Cindy Fleet, Mrs. Marion Knox, Mrs. Eleanor Falconer, Mrs. MaryLou Driscoll, Miss Wendy Kloss, Mrs. Judy Dykstra, Mrs. Evelyn Archer, Mrs. Lynne Adams, Mrs. Dianne Elliott, Mrs. Rita Leppinton, Miss Patricia Postma, Mrs. Ettie Hugill, Mrs. Susan Blan- chard and Mrs. Faith Taylor. Special thanks to the girls who brought in the wedding dresses, the girls who modelled them, K.C. Cooke for the lend of the flowers and the candelabras, Bar- tliffs for the loan of the decorated wedding cake. I would like to thank the girls hind the►scene whe-itt Iped tfie models dress and iri,- dress. i would also like to thank our Mr. Lester for taking the Vido.

Ethel Sturdy, and Marjory Boyce. These ladies are all from the Goderich area. Sympathy is expressed to the family of Miss Dorothy Streets. etc., instead of just chatting. That was tough! The other judges were the same, and maybe that's why we were ten minutes late. Next came their speeches in front of the audience. Having done some public speaking myself, I could sympathize with them. At the end of each speech, we judges bowed our heads to score sheets, and after the last speech, we added up figures without benefit of a calculator. (That's probably why we ran another ten minutes overtime. A seven -way tie would have made our job much easier, but it doesn't work that way. We compared notes, and strangely enough, we agreed without dissen- sion on Queen of the,Fair and her runner-up. The enthusiastic response of the audience. when the winners were announced, told us the majority of the people agreed with us. That was a relief. I had envisioned another first - being run out of town by an angry mob.
