Hair today, gone tomorrow
South Huron District
High School music
teacher Bob Robilliard
was letting his hair
grow long this season
as part of a fundraising
event for the music pro-
gram. At the end of the
school's final spring
concert on Tuesday
more than 25 lucky
winners had a chance
to take home a lock of
Robilliard's hair.
Names were drawn
from a box and they got
to cut the clump of
choice.
Above, Robilliard
anticipates his cut
while at right; Jeff Bow-
en
owen gets down to the
business of trimming
Robilliard's hair. Below,
Chris Passmore, Ro-
billiard and Heather
Steckle display the end
result.
Capsule Comments
with Ernie Miatello
Poor -fitting shoes can play havbc with our feet. Bun-
ions are caused by shoes that are too tight. Women
suffer the majority of foot problems like bunions,
hammertoes and neuroma (thickended, painful
nerves in the forefoot making walking difficult). The
solution? Wider shoes. They may look less fashion-
able, but your feet will thank you.
How much water should you take with your medication? Actually, an 8
oz. glassful will supply the necessary volume of liquid to allow the medi-
cine to dissolve quickly and be more rapidly absorbed. (This means it
will work faster.)
Speaking of water, most people don't drink enough and they risk border-
line dehydration. Symptoms of headache and fatigue can occur. Water
is Nature's perfect beverage. It contains no calories, fat, cholesterol or
artificial sweeteners. It is quality -controlled and the price is right.
A new medication patch containing lidocaine, an anaesthetic drug, is
currently being tested. When It is released it will be used to relieve the
Intense pain of shingles. a viral disease resulting in painful skin rash.

Highway 4
won't be
closed for
sidewalk sale
EXETER - Portions of Highway
4 won't be closed during Exeter's
upcoming sale as the Exeter Busi-
ness Association had hoped.
The BIA informed Town Council
that the Ministry of Transportation
denied an application for closure of
Highway 4 from Huron to Sanders
streets.
Ministry officials told the BIA
that they didn't want to set a prece
dent of closing major highways for
commercial use.
Instead town council agreed to
close off portions of laneways and
have parking spaces on both sides
of Main Street between Huron and
Gidley streets barricaded starting
on July 20 until late July 21.
