Church suppers have been part of the Canadian scene since pioneer times. Usuallyaa church served a su-pper as part of its anniversary celebrations. The date was set in the autumn, when the harvest was in the barn and folks had a breathing spell before winter. Plans started early among the women sof the church. There was a listing of potential contributors of food. .The district's best cooks were lined up. Great rivalry there was. too, over who could send along the most luscious pumpkin pie or the highest layer cake. Long tables were set on trestles in the Sunday School room—usually the church basement. -Maple leaves and flam- ing Virginia creeper were laid on the white cloths. Flowers were arranged at strategic points where the table cloths met. At the last minute, as the food was placed on the table. a bit of argument usually arose over moving the decorations. With all the bowls and platters and pitchers, there just was ;sc sot room for everything. Bit by bit the decoi•ative heme K ITCH have to a EN new house of the kitchen. it.

That's wl}at Mrs. Michael-Ohler, 36 Cambria road south. did. She just returned on Saturday, ending a trip which started from Gode- rich on July 24. She Went by train to Edmonton, then by plane for a distance of about 1,400 miles' to Whitehorse in )'ukon Territory. There, at the end of JUly, she found the temperature of tin above the 90 mark. "The heat was un- bearable and so different to the abnormal, cool, summer weather that Goderich has been having," she said. They admitted at White- horse (hat the intense heat was a bit unusual. Now in her 78th year, with her birthday on Valentine day, Mrs. Ohler found her first long trip by plane was a lot of fun and she enjoyed every bit of it. She took along medicine from her doctor in Goderich but found that she• was feeling so well she just about tossed the medicine out of the plane. She was accompanied by her daughter, Mrs. Norman Allan, R.R. 2, Clinton. At Whitehouse, they visited with Mrs. Ohler's grand- daughter, Mrs. Hudson Milburn. The husband of the latter woman is a member of the RC.M.P., who "has been stationed at Whitehorse for the past six years. While at Whitehorse they visited the quaint Indian cemetery. Over each grave a small hut or houta- is built and in it is placed a table, a chair and even some Mod on the table so the departed spirit can come up any time and have a bite to eat in comfort.

When they had consumed about three times as much as any ordinary meal would include, they leaned back in a glow of good fellowship, thankful that they had been able to help the anniversary fund along by paying 50- cents • apiece for the meal. Maybe the kitchen at St. George's Church won't be used for old-time suppers of that kind.. But the news that a new kitchen is to be built brings back memories of lavish enter- tainment in a period when the women of a congregation counted on raising money for their church activities, through. the anniversary supper. Irr Gladioli Feature Of Goderich Flower Show A highly successful flower show, in which the number of entries • wag even beyond capeetations, was held by Goderich Horticultural So- ciety in MacKay Hall on Saturday afternoon and evening. The pro- fusion_ of beautiful floral exhibits was viewed by a large number of people, and members of the society expressed themselves_ as very pleased with the results of the show. One of the notable features of the exhibition was an extremely high class of 'gladioli. The con- vener, J. Cuthbertson, was assisted by J. Foreman, while Mrs. I. Mc- Lean was in charge -of the after- noon tea. They were helped by several other' members of the so- ciety's executive.. Miss Mary Howell was in charge of the coin table. The executive was very pleased with the response to its earlier ap- peal for as many members as pos- sible to exhibit at the show this year. In fact, if -there had been any more exhibits, it might have been difficult to find a place to display them properly. The judges, all from Auburn, were Mrs. W. T. Robison, Mrs. D. Fowler and William Gibson. President of • Goderich Horticul- tural Society is If. Glenn Hays. In the commercial growers' sec- tion, there were outstanding dis- plays of gladioli by W. E. Peachey and Mrs. Lloyd Holman and of chrysanthemums 'by Goderich Flowers. Following is the list_ of prize winners: Asters, single (one bloom)—Mrs. G. Bowra, Mrs. Wm.
