'for•., eta.' I ' have two kids (not dung), who were out in that weather too. - - At .....Robertson Memorial School, for instance, I know the children were not permitted 'to leave in he afternoon unless they' had a Walking companion. It was .,the buddy -system all the way. , Acct Jet usrremernber that it is still the ,parents who4, decide ' or not the children will '"'Ti ttttrere'il '-^ aderich whvw•dirf not send their children back to school,Tuesday at noon .... and i doubt that there is a `teacher 'at • any, of the schools in Godench who will condemn them for that. When it comes right down to it, the parents, have as much forewarning sometimes as teachers concerning the weather ' conditions. Maybe the parents should be responsible, either to make arrangements for getting their children home from school before the storm becomes too intense or to simply keep their youngsters out of .school when a storm threatens. • I guess it really 'depends how you look at it .1., and the side of the fence from which you are viewing the situation. * * * _ I noted a story in E iday mornirt's Free Press concerning the situation in GQderich during the storm. It sounds as though many folks here in town did quite i bit of reading. You wouldn't believe what, ' my "daughter and I did tiering the, storm. Well, we sewed a skirt, a vest ,and a blouse for my daughter (that was' a kind of joint program) and I .... repeat. I knitted a handbag for. her! That's right. I knitted a handbag and I'm proud :to say it doesn't • • look too • bad. I• haven't . knit anythie in years and years and years so the storm was good for something after all. *spoke English but with unmistakable gestures, a man ordered me out and into a larger 'restaurant across the corridor. ( I later found that the first was the staff dining room). "No one' came near me so I sal) - down at an empty table.,Still,,no one came and 1 finally called in a, loud voice "Does anybody speak, English?hoping that perhaps' another guest might help me out. °After a long wait, an elderly' waiter came to my table and motioned to 'me. to move to the other , side." .of. -the...., large*. roe rep eatingµs4,ag Ii «s1.7 i the "while.

"Ya nye gavaryoo pa angliiski" said.' my, waiter, and we were right back where we started! 'I finally said :`soup" which must be an international word because .he understood. Then I 'said' "salad." Not so international. I got three small whole Ltornatoes, one spoiled. I had `learned . in Yugoslavia that by 'asking for "salad" I would get tea. * * • I was intrigued by a little. episode recorded by Mrs. Mary Stanfield, wife -of Robert Stanfield. The item was included in a magazine entitled "Communique" and was written by Mrs. Stanfield t'ollowing a ,tour through Europe „With h'e'r husband. I:11 share: it with you here and perhaps, you' will be reminded as, 1 was,• that a snow storm isn't the,' only disaster which can befall a pejson and leave them hungry.

I've had word that the report . about ,the senior citizens meeting was not 'quite correct .... and in ?order to get the press reporter - off the' hook,,?I'll give you the correction in thisecolumn: Mrs. _ Alice Webster ,and Arnold Miller were the ' winliers of the euchre games and Mrs. Ivy" Johnston and Harold Johnstone • won the crokinole contest.
