hospital and at home. It was
felt that confidence in the
ways of mothering was most
impertant,whatever choices
were made,
A survey, researched by
Alice K. Lada, Ed. D. found
that many difficulties en-
countered by nursing
mothers and babies were
significantly related to lack
of information, and resulted
in mothers stopping
breastfeeding before they
wished This survey also
concluded that: "Worsen
who have both informational
the type given by LLL and
support have a better out-
come to their breastfeeding
endeavours than waren who
have only information or
only support." (1970)

Matt and Mary
Sparkle on
Hy Helen Owen
Herd in hand for 60 years!
Mr. and Mrs. Merritt (Matt)
Nediger celebrated the
anniversary of their
marriage on Monday
February 23. When social
workers and statisticis
reiterate the failure of
minriage and the _alarming
rise in divorce figures, such
an event is a heartwarming
occasion - and a wonderful
example of a marriage that
has survived happily despite
its beginnings kr the days of
Bre Depression.
When Matt and Mary
Nediger were married at the
United Chunele Clinton by
the Rev. Anderson, neither
had achieved a 20th bir-
thday! Their folar°-day
honeymoon was a train trip
ao
LOinioll. Soon' after that
they moved to Seaforth
where they started a
"chicken ranch", but Matt's
father wanted him back in
the family business. During
the war years he worked at
Sky Harbour, Goderic h, and
after went to Lorne Brown
motors where be remained
for the next 13 years. The
subsequent seven years saw
Matt as custodian of
Huronview - not unfamiliar
to Mary whose father, a lay
preacher had often taken
her there, and where she
had frequently delighted the
residents with her singing.
Reviewing their long and
happy married life it ! clear
that their firm principles,
dedication to their church
and courteous respect for
each other have been the
contributing factors.
Looking back over the years
they recall knowing each
other at school, and then how
they became sweethearts as
a result of the "Saturday
evening walks" - an im-
portant teenage meeting
ground at a time when
money, cars and en-
tertainment were definitely
non-essential in pursuing a
courtship.
Three years after their
marriage, a son, C.A. (Bud)
was born, followed two years
later by the birth of their
daughter Clara. Life was far
from easy - every penny
counted, and the stress
occasioned by unpaid bills
was avoided, ice for the
Nedigers, if you couldn't
afford it, you went without.
Such shared experience and
asaessment of values are
obviously an important part
of the Nediger marriage.
When her children grew
up, Mary found time to
undertake a new career as
Clerk of the Small Claims
Court in Clinton, which
position she held for some 14
years. There is no doubt
when talking to her that her
own early experiences
during hard times gave her a
deeper uarderstanding and
practical approach to this
type of work..
Throughout their 60 years _
tegether, .t the spirit ' f
romance has persisted, as
exemplified by Matt's an-
nual anniversary gift of red
roses. However, this year his
gift to Mary is an exquisite
diamond flower pendant, set
in gold, with earrings and
bracelet to complement it,
and Mary has given Matt a
watch
Sunday was a special
occasion at the Wesley -Willis
Church in Clinton, when
family and friends attended
the service and presented a
beautiful candelabra in
honour of the event. An old
friend and one -tune fellow
choir member of Mary's was
in attendance le sing, , her
favourite anthem, "Let
Mount Zion Rejoice".
Following the service
conducted by the Rev.
Charles Scott, i Matt and
Mary hosted a reception held
in the Church Parlour.
Another highlight was the
presentation of a framed,
congratulatory message
from William Davis,
Premier of Ontario, made on
his behalf by Jack Riddell.
The • Nedigers were also
informed that a telegram
from the Queen was on its
way. Some two hundred
guests attended the recap
tion.
The evening was ex-
clusively . a family affair,
with dinner at the Blue
Fountain. Son Bud, his wife
Margaret, and daughter
Clara headed the family
party, which Woo included
grandchildren, and great
grandchildren, nephews and
nieces, as wel as Malt's
sisters and sister-in-law.
Four years ago, Matt and
Mary moved to Clues Gregor
Apartments in Hayfield,
where as they say they have
made firm friends - and
these have been four happy
years.
On Monday afternoon,
these Clan Gregor residents
and other Hayfield friends
shared a special little
celebration. On the an-
niversary day the , party
gathered in the lounge of the
apartments and enjoyed the
delicious sandwiches, "cakes
and cerkies whir had beer
provided for the occasion.
On display also was a
magnificent wedding cake,
decorated with roses and a
pink heart, the centre of
which carried a "diamond"
studded 60. Residents
presented Matt and Mary
with a memento of the oc-
casion, a pretty, flower -
decorated covered dish As
well as Mast's annualifu
bouquet of ,Matt's
deep red
roses, the Nedigers had also
received bouquets and
flowers from other well
wishers.
There was no doubt of the
warm feelings expressed by
all their family and friends,
who enjoyed participating in
this rare "diamond" an-
niversary.
