HomeMy WebLinkAboutClinton News-Record, 1979-04-26, Page 2particular area, it may
easily be changed at this
stage.
While working with the
fabrics, you should be
getting a feel for where
and how to use the yarn
and stitches to complete
the scene. Remember
that even one stitch is
sufficient if used in a way
which enhances the rest
of the work. Stitches may
overlap, vary in size, and
one or more types of yarn
may be used at a time to
create different effects.
If you work lowly but
steadily in this manner,
the picture will grow with
you and you will develop
a style of your own. Soon
you'll be ready to glue
down the fabric where
needed and complete the
embroidery.
Every so often, stand
back from your work and
look at it from a distance.
You'll be surprised at
how different it looks. To
make the final effects of
shading and depth, try
using fabric or em-
broidery in subtle shades
of those already there, or
of their' complementary
colors, to bring them
forward.

PAGE 2 --CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, THURSDAY, APRIL 26, 1979
A letter and interesting
clippings- were received
last week from Mrs.
Irene Clegg of Niagara
Falls, Ontario.
The news clippings
from The Globe and Mail,
the Niagara ' Falls
Evening Review and the
Daily Miner News of
Kenora all related the
daring rescue on March
28, 1979 made by Brian
Clegg of Heli Voyageur
Ltd. Val d'Or, Quebec
and a Ministry of
National Resources pilot,
Bola Grant.
The rescue was made
after a plane crashed on
Lake of the Woods near
Kenora. With Clegg at the
controls of his helicopter,
Bob Grant climbed out on
the skid and grabbed a
womart_, - nurse Sally
Irwin, who was floating in
the icy water.
Bob Grant was quoted
as saying of Clegg, "He's
one hell of a skilful pilot
and through his
manoeuvering of the
chopper I was able to get
a hold of nurse Irwin."
After depositing the
nurse ,at Lake of the
Woods District Hospital
the pair headed back for
the Lakeshore to pick up
the pilot of the downed
plane and a passenger.
Brian Clegg is a native
of Clinton, the son of Mr.
and Mrs. Jack Clegg
formerly of our town and
now residents of Niagara
Falls, where they moved
in 1967.

It was the occasion of
their 25th wedding an-

as we had stated.

The Rebekahs and
Oddfellows card party
was held on April 19 with
the following winners:
ladies' high Mrs. Mamie
Carter; ladies' low, Mrs.
June Fothergill; men's
high, Mrs. Riva Wilson;
men's low, Ed Godkin;
lone hands, Mrs. Hazel
Matheson. Results of the
draw for a ham won by
Mrs. Evelyn Hudie and
for the mystery prize the
winner was Miss Rachael
Johnston.

The column this week
would like to pay tribute
to the memory of Charlie
Cook. His passing has
taken a little of the color
from our town, the color
of his personality and the
color of his beautiful
flowers, always a lan-
dmark in his garden on
Kirk at Victoria Street.
To his son, John, and
other family members
goes the sympathy of the
townspeopl&' who
glad they knew Charlie.

Five members of the
Clinton Lions Club and
their wives attended the
club's mini -conference in
Port Elgin over the
weekend.
Len and Isobel
Theedom, Harold and
Kaye Wise, Gordon and
Hilda Harkes, Murray
and Pat Garrett and '
Eugene and Mildred
McAdam along with 400
other Lions attended.
While the men took part
in such functions as
electing the district of-
ficers, the women en-
joyed tours of the area.
The next conference, in
1980, will be held in
Goderich.
Nothing but a shell was left of this 1-968 station wagon after it burst into flames
in a Friday night fire. Fortunately the driver, William Forrest of Goderich and
his sleeping daughter were able to get out of the car without serious injury.

For kids
Civic holiday is free
Children 15 years of age
and under will be ad-
mitted free to all of
Ontario's 128 provincial
parks on Civic Holiday,
August 6.
Natural Resources
Minister James A. C.
Auld said recently that
the special holiday for
children is further in-
dication of the strong
support being provided
by the Ontario Govern-
ment to International
Year of the Child
programs during 1979.
"While my Ministry is
already involved in
several other youth -
oriented programs
supporting Year of the
Child, we are particularly
pleased to provide free
entry for day use to any
vehicle having a child 15
years or younger' as a
passenger," Mr. Auld
said.
Parks officials also
plan to distribute a
colorful button with the
caption "I'm For Parks"
to all children entering
provincial parks on
August 6. The buttons
were popular at the
Ministry's narks exhibit
Paint yourself a picture with needle and thread
Have you ever won-
dered what to do with the
remnants from your
sewing and yarn projects
of the past? Clothing,
crafts and furnishings
specialists with the Home
Economics Branch,
Ontario Ministry of
Agriculture and Food,
suggest you gather them
up - but don't throw them
out! Use them to create a
landscape picture by
combining applique and
stitchery with some
imagination. It helps to
know one or more em-
broidery stitches, but a
book can be kept on hand
for inspiration, if needed.
Start with either a
scene directly from
nature or a photograph.
Put away any notions you
have about drawing and
sketch on paper your own
outline of the scene
you're going to create.
Fine details are not
needed. Make two or
three more drawings, if
desired, changing a line
here or there. Just
remember that the lines
should be simple and that
there should be an in-
teresting combination of
different shapes. Strive
for the total effect, and
don't copy exactly what
you see.
Now, pick a plain
ones that you'll use tor
the appliqued areas.
Plain materials are
suitable for landscapes.
These can be cut out
freely, or else done by
following the pattern on
the drawing. Don't worry
about being thread
perfect, it's no fun that
way.
Gradually, as the
fabrics, of different
shades, weights and
textures are overlapped,
fringed, gathered or
background fabric which stretched and pinned in
has- a coarse weave and place, the whole picture
stretch it firmly over a will start to take shape. If
wooden frame. The ap- you' aren't happy with a
pliqued fabrics can then
be pinned to it easily
t 'fore being stitched
down.
Separate all the
materials into the dif-
ferent colors and pick the
Cucumber salad
A perfect suggestion
for a special spring salad
is this recipe for Chunky
Cucumber Salad, a
favorite of food
specialists at the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture
and Food. What makes it
special are the long,
seedless cucumbers
• which are grown in
Ontario greenhouses and
sold wrapped in film to
protect the skin.
Because the thin,
delicate skin is edible and
mild in flavor, there is no
need to peel these long,
slender cucumbers.
Enjoy them soon in this
Chunky Cucumber Salad.
Chunky Cucumber Salad
2 long English cucumbers

"Some parks will be

children's day activities
through our park visitor
services program," Mr.
Auld said. "After all, 1979
is designated as a special
year for children

Correctly
Is your frig working?
The refrigerator is one
of the most important
appliances in the home.
But sometimes we take it
for granted, assuming it
is doing an efficient job of
keeping the foods cold
enough. "-This may not be
the case.
Refrigerator tem-
peratures should be kept
at or below -4 degrees C
(40 degrees F) to retard
or inhibit growth of most
bacteria. The function of
the dial found in most
refrigerators is to adjust
the temperature.
Therefore, in order to
adjust the dial, you
should determine the
exact temperature of the
refrigerator. Food
specialists at the Ontario
Ministry of Agriculture
and Food recommend
keeping a refrigerator -
freezer thermometer in
the refrigerator.
Check the temperature
in all areas of the
refrigerator. You will
probably discover that
the coldest area is most
often at the bottom, since
warmer air rises, to the
top. Reserve the coldest
area for dairy products,
meats and leftovers.
Be careful to maintain
an even temperature and
good circulation of cold
air. Do not stack foods or
overcrowd any one area.
Don't cover refrigerator
shelves with foil or any
material that will reduce
air circulation.
These simple checks
can make the difference
between an improperly
and properly working
refrigerator. It's to your
advantage to take the'
time to make sure your
refrigerator is working
efficiently.
