On Tuesday afternoon, many residents of Huron - view were guests of the Clin- ton and District Christian School, where the students presented their version of "The Jungle Book" based upon the novel by Rudysird Kipling. Frank Bissett, who is no stranger to live theatre, said: "This was a delightful musical production and the opening number was very ef- fective as the `characters of the jungle' led by the 'elephants' down the aisle to the stage. I expected to see the hind end of the 'elephants' perhaps miss a step on the stairs but no way! I personally saw a flawless performance. For the number of monkeys, lions,' tigers, vultures and of course the `elephants' and other characters all on the stage at one time, the 114 movements were handled beautifully. "The staging was splendid and very creative. The set and scene changes were col- _orfi<II_and artistic. and. I liked the feeling brought about by the flashing lights. I was im- pressed with the fine or- chestra anald cttopaa music hid a popujar.; tapping rhythm and the lyrics cute and appropriate. The entire cast seemed to bubble with enthusiasm and at no time expressed the lack of it. "I talked with Mary Hearn, Diane Bruinsma and Clarence Bos and learned that many hardworking hours and patience went into the designing and making the lovely costumes, all so much in detail and character. It would be dif- ficult to judge anyone part as better than another. They were all cleverly played and showed much talent. The scene with Mougli and the snakes - so realistic and art- fully done - I had to mention again there is great talent here at the school.

Falconer FUNERAL DIRECTOR 153 HIGH STREET, CLINTON TELEPHONE 482-9441 serving Clinton and area since 1902 1 .moots is a popular hobby By Shelley McPhee Researching family history is fast becoming a popular interest in North America and genealogical societies are active in every province in Canada and throughout the United States. In Ontario alone there are more than 18 family research organizations, including the Huron County Branch w,ltich recently celebrated its first an- niversary. Since beginning a little over a year ago, the Huron Branch has been steadily spreading its roots and now has over 140 members across Canada and the United States. Members use the facilities and information that the branch collects in attempts to research their ancestry, particularly-` in Htlrtrn` County. To increase the information available to its members, the Huron Branch has begun a major tran- scribing project of the 94 cemeteries in the county. At the branch's March 4 meeting in Goderich, project co-ordinator Alison Lobb of Clinton reported that letters had been sent to all municipal clerks in the area, requesting any historical information and records of the cemeteries. Mrs. Lobb also noted that the organization still had time to apply for assistance through the Summer Canada Student Employment Program, through which the government would hire students to work on the project. In February the iIuron Branch sponsored a seminar at the county registry Office in Goderich for members. Over 35 people attended the evening session and Ruth Ann Chapman reported, "Many people don't realize that the information at the registry office is available to the public. Many think it's only for doctors, lawyers and _developers."- , At the seminar the genealogists teamed how to look up old land deeds and were given access to many public records and documents during the evening. Some members from the Huron Branch, as well as genealogists from all across Prepare with prenatal The Huron County Health Unit has provided classes for expectant parents for the past ten years. The format of these classes has been a series of eight classes which most ex- pectant parents attend from the fifth month of pregnan- cy. The purpose of these pre- natal classes has been to help expectant parents to have a healthy pre -natal period and to prepare them for labour and delivery. Emphasis is placed on the importance of life style habits related to the develop- ment of the unborn child, as well as the care of the baby and the family relationship surrounding the addition of a new member. Research has recently il- lustrated that many poten- tially harmful effects to the developing foetus may be prevented. Expectant parents need to have this in- formation in the early days of pregnancy or prior to pregnancy. For this reason the Health Unit, starting in June will introduce "early bird" classes geared to the needs of the pregnant women in the first. trimester (first three months) and to those parents who are plann- ing a pregnancy. Information given at these classes will'include develop- ment of the foetus, body, changes, nutritional needs of the expectant-rnother, poten- tial risks to developing foetus and emotional changes related to pregnan- cy. This session would con- sist of two classes and would be followed three months later by the remainder of the session to include prepara- tion for labour and delivery, breathing and relaxation technique, care of the - newborn and the post par- tum period. The later session will consist of six classes. DON'T FORGET THE.
