Vanastra Centre extends a special invitation to senior citizens Sharon's recipe corner Are you housebreaking a puppy? Try hanging a bell by a rubber band (so that it'll bounce) from a doorknob. Every time you take the puppy outside to "perform", ring the bell. He'll soon be able to tell you when he needs to go out. If postage stamps stick together they'll come apart easily if they are put in the freezer for 15 minutes. Ties for tomatoes and other plants can be made from .old pantyhose or stockings. Cut the nylons lengthwise, and you have sturdy ties that won't cut into the stalks. Old pantyhose can also be used to tie trash together such as bundles of old branches. They serve as strong elastic ropes.

Special thanks from the parents to the coaches for their patience and ob- vious success Free Press B comrrfents unfair According to London Free Press, Vanastra is not the best place to live; but we have found that in a time of need people couldn't do enough 'to help. If -this is a.bad en- vironment, what do you consider a good one? A person has to live.` in Vanastra to realize. just what a good community it is. Many of our neighbors have lived in other parts of Ontario, but have found Vanastra the best place to live. Many of the Easterners, especially ourselves, wouldn't •leave Vanastra except to go back East. -by Diane an, d Jim Ryan, Vanastra WHITE BEAN GROWERS HARVEST 1979 T:heCook's plan will meet the challenge - and serve you better! -. * Fast Receiving Facilities * Personal Attention From Qualified Staff * Three Major Plants, Plus Licensed Satellites Throughout The Area.
