It was my first rummage sale, and between 10 and 11 o'clock last Thursday morning, I found myself apologizing to a countless number of people. I also heard a huge number of people apologizing back. It happens when too many people are all grabbing for too few items in too short a time. Somebody's bound to be pushed and shoved. But this was the most polite crowd of pushers and shovers you'd ever want to meet. Every time you got an elbow in the ribs, it 'was followed by a smile and a "sorry". The rummage sale was sponsored by the women's auxiliary to the hospital, and was held at the•South Huron Rec Centre. There were all kinds of people buying all kinds of things. I noticed the "optimists" first --They were the ones who were lined up at the door an hour before it opened and came equipped with huge garbage bags to fill. Everytime the door opened for workers to go in or out, these optimists would be peeking in, picking out the location of tables and racks they wanted to hit. Then when the. doors Rebekahs hear booth results Forty members attended the Pride of Huron Rebekah Lodge Wednesday evening when NG Margaret Cook presided• assisted by Sister Vi Coates who acted for VG Marjorie Arthur who is in California. Miss Cook welcomedall members and also gave the visiting report, stating many visits had been made to sick and shut-ins. J.P.N.G. Shirley Cooper reported that the CPT equipment was now being stored in South Huron Hospital. She also reported the results of the Fair Booth. An invitation to the 50th anniversary of Bill and Olive Bannister of Parkhill was read. opened, these people raced in, and as fast as their hands could go, they started filling their big green bags. You could tell which women had large families at home. They didn't stop to check sizes; they just threw the clothes -in, knowing it was bound to fit somebody. These were the professional rummagers -- within ten minutes they had their priorities established, and had cleaned up on the important items. That gave them time to look about for more frivolous things, such as the Halloween costume rack. I wondered what criteria a dress had to meet to be in- cluded in the Halloween costume rack.. I thought maybe some ladies might be insulted to find the dress. they •had worn last month was labej�ed a Halloween costume. , Then over in the "better dresses" section, I found a few items which might have sold faster if they had been in with the Halloween costumes --at least in my estimation. Among the optimistic shoppers were the salesmen types. They didn't seem to be doing any buying them- selves, but they kept busy roving through the crowd pointing out bargains One of them approached me near "ladies skirts". "'There's a lot of good wool in that skirt." she said. I ignored her, not realizing she was talking to me. "lt looks like it's hardly been worn," she said louder, holding it up. I nodded. ""These pleats are hack in style," she went on. "1 guess so," I replied. "It looks to be about your size," she added. That was it, I had to tell her. "It is my size, 1 donated it." Thus ended- her sales pitch. But soon I heard her over by the lamps. telling another lady that a beige lamp shade would go with any room. Soon, however, I was caught up in the buying MR. AND MRS. CHRISTOPHER ARCHAMBAULT Knox Presbyterian Church in Bayfield was the settrng on September 15 for the wedding ceremony of Julia Maude, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Witham •D. Armstrong of R.R. 3 Bayfield, and Christopher Charles Archambault, son of Mr. and Mrs. J. Peters of Zurich. The music was played by Mrs. Corinne Chorr,of London. Miss Susan Sangster of Toronto song. Matron of honour was Mrs. Winnie Darnbroogh. The bridesmaids were Mrs. Linda Kowolchuk and Miss Marie Har- tung. The junior. bridesmaids was Miss Stephanie Peters. Master Scott Armstrong was.ringbearer. Brock Adams ,vas best man and the ushers were James Armstrong 'and Larry Keller. Following the reception Mr. and Mrs. Archambault left for a honeymoon trip to Eostern Ontario. They have taken up residence in London. spirit. My first purchase was a beautiful green plant. I haven't yet figured out why someone wduld want to get rid of such a nice healthy plant. I took it right home, fed it, watered it, gave it a top priority spot in the sunlight, and talked to' it. I think it is recovering from the trauma of rejection fairly well, and seems to be fitting it with our other 75 plants. Near the plants was a big selection of huge waxed turnips for only 25 cents. Now, a bargain like that I couldn't resist, even if it will take all winter to eat the thing. My husband hateS turnip. Near the bargain turnips were two little egg plants. I know a great recipe using egg plant to make a delicious lasagne dish, and I snatched them up. They were only 10 cents each. Unfortunately, this, lasagne dish where you use egg plant instead of noodles takes all day to make. Now, when will I have a day to spend in the kitchen making low calorie lasagne? The egg plants will probably spoil in thefridgebeforel can use them. After I left the plant and produce section, I was carried by the crowd into the clothing. Once again, I was swept away by the ex- citement of it all, and found myself trying on a jacket. Another great money saver -- the jacket only cost 50 cents Unfortunately to have it KINETTES MEET The Exeter Kinette club held their first meeting of the year September 25, at the home of president Anne Armstrong. During the meeting Kinette Phyllis Humphrey was welcomed by the members. During the recent Exeter Fall Fair the Kinette club placed sixth in the place setting competition. The competition was sponsored by the Exeter Agricultural Society, and considering it was their first attempt, the Kinettes were very. pleased with the results. The .Kinettes sold raffle tickets at the fair, on a crocheted table cloth. The winning ticket Will be drawn at the next meeting to be held October 23. cleaned, it cost about six times that. However,'ttiere's something about this jacket that makes me think that there must be• a matching pair of pants or skirt somewhere. 1 searched the rummage, but found nothing. Now I'm afraid to wear the jacket in case I see the matching skirt on the street coming towards me. Besides the optimists, the salespeople, and those like me who just get carried away, there were a few pessimists in the crowd. Those are • the people who walk around saying "There's not much here," and even complaining about the prices. (Imaging .that ' ). • But something tells me they aren't true pessimists. The true pessimists just .stayed home that day. They missed a lot of fun.
