New correspondent
After more than a decade of
reporting the Kippen news,
Rena Caldwell is handing the
correspondent's notepad to
Margaret Hoggarth, RR 2
Kippen.
Mrs. Caldwell originally
reported the meeting of the
Hensall c(auncil for Maude
'lleddon. She was asked to
write the Kippen news for the
Exeter, Seaforth, Clinton and
Zurich papers when she mov-
ed three miles fast.
Rena knows by the many
comments she has received
over the years that weekly
correspondents are read avid-
ly in such far -scattered places
as Florida and Alberta by
former residents of this area
who want to keep in touch
with what is happening "back
home."
Deciding "a change is as
good as a rest", Rena has
passed the job on to her
neighbour. Mrs. Hoggarth.
With two of her children off to
college this September.
Margaret will have lots of
time to report on Kippen ac-
tivities. Please phone your
news items to her at 262-6902.

Seniorsbuilding features
The senior citizens apart-
ments rapidly taking shape in
Hensall promises to become
on of the village's most
distinctive buildings. One of
the structure's unusual
features is the brick -coloured
tile roof.
The Marley roof,
originating in England 60
years ago, was introduced in-
to Canada 18 months ago.
Though initially more expen-
sive than conventional roofs,
PROGRESSING RAPIDLY — The 22 -unit seniors apartment is quickly taking shape.
One of its attractive and unusual features is the Marley tiled roof.
this roof is guaranteed for 50
years. English workmen put
the attractive curved tiles in
place; few Canadians have as
yet been trained to work with
this innovative construction
material.
Another feature not often
found in two-storey bi ildings
is an elevator to assist
residents to more easily
transport themselves and
their groceries and other
belongings from one floor to
another.
All 22 units willbe carpeted
wall to wall not only in the liv-
ing room but in the bedrooms
too, another extra touch.
The building will be heated
electrically, assisted in battl-
ing winter chills by R32 in-
sulation in the ceilings and
R20 in the walls.
Site superintendent Tom
Neilands, Hensall, said he has
worked on , CMHC-financed
seniors housing projects in
Baden and London, and is
really impressed with the
quality of the Hensall
complex.
"It's really high class...1
don't know how the planning
committee did it," was his
considered opinion.
A two-week delay caused
by the cold wet weather of
late spring has since been
eliminated, and all work is
now on schedule.
The public will be invited to
an open house on Sunday,
August 14 from 2 to 4 in the
afternoon to tour the building.
One of the suites will be com-
pletely furnished, com-
pliments of Whitings, who
volunteered to supply all
necessary articles.
Local people have been us-
ed wherever possible. The
electrical contractor is J.
Rasenburg, Exeter, and Gor-
don Slaght, Crediton, has
responsibility for the
plumbing.
Hensall Senior Citizens
Housing committee member
Irene Davis said six prospec-
tive tenants have already
signed leases, and more
presently on holidays have
expressed a similar intention.
