Conserancy hers of York by Helen Owen Mrs. Dorothy Wallace, President of the Huron Branch of the Architectural Conservancy of Ontario, welcomed the audience to the meeting held in the Old Town Hall, Bayfield on ®Thursday, May 7. Following reading of the minutes of the November meeting, the representative from Seaforth reported.on a successful seminar which had been held at Van Eg- mond House recently. The Goderich represen- tatives told of the discovery of the original mayoral chair, which was now being restored and would be plac- ed in the Council Chamber when the work was com- pleted. Another project has been the production of a tour map for visitors, which would be available through the-aourist office_ _ in. Goderich. It was announced that a. `walking tour' of the London area was planned for June 17 and details were available •for anyone wishing to take part. Another interesting tour had been arranged for June 22, 23 and 25 in Brant- ford. After considerable delays the Cambridge Preston Public School Building was being opened as senior citizen accommodation and the president recommended a visit to this unusual con- cept. She also reported on the seminar which had taken place in Toronto two weeks ago. Some 250 delegates had attended drawn from a very wide area, the speakers be- ing Chris Pelham and Mar- tin Weaver. While there, she had picked up a supply of folders made up by head- stuck in the middle quarters and distributed free of charge. These were designed with a special pocket to contain local infor- mation and members pre- sent were invited to acquire supplies for use in their own areas. A discussion ensued on the protest action of Jim Ander- son in Stratford, and it was suggested that the best sup- port that could be offered would be through letters to the press expressing concern that action of this nature was necessary in order to draw attention to the importance of maintaining historical records. The • president then in- troduced the speaker, Nicholas Hill, author of the recently published book, "Historic Streetscapes'. Mr. Hill told his audience that he had been fortunate to attend a course in England .at the Institute of Advanced Ar- chitectural Studies in the. ci- ty of York. His talk centered around the course subjects and he also displayed delightful water colours of building and landscapes which he had painted and sketched in his spare time in the area. The course, he said, had an added interest because the participants came from all over the world. It had been demanding since it was broken up into single weeks of intensive study of a varie- ty of architectural subjects - structures, materials, land- scaping and historical buildings. An additional bonus had been a bus tour of the West country. Mr. Hill then went on to il- lustrate his talk with a series of slides. He emphasized his awareness of a difference in the quality of light, which be- ing softer than that to which he was accustomed, certain- ly revealed the buildings and countryside in a manner that added to the natural and structured environment. The city of York had a history go- ing back some 2,000 years and saw its beginnings as a fortified Roman encamp- ment at the junction of two rivers. Situated in the north of England, not far from the Scottich border, it had grown up and survived many troubles from the Norman conquest onwards. The slides exemplified what re- mained of a walled medieaval city, crowned by the impressive York Minster. City gates, or bars, as they are called, still sur- vive, and the heads of miscreants were once displayed on poles as a warn - log to_othena ov r these same gateways. Describing the city's skyline, Mr. Hill mentioned the 22 spires, which il- luminated at night, were both impressive and beautiful. Pictures of the ci- ty itself revealed the remarkable harmony which illuminated at night, Concluding his talk, Mr. Hill mentioned that the area had also had a large part to play at the time of the in- dustrial revolution. Con- sequently, evidence of this time was now being preserv- ed in the restoration work to the magnificent railway sta- tion, apd in conservation of iron bridges, railway tracks, furnaces and mills. Mrs. Wallace thanked Mr. Hill whose pictures and de riptions had held his au- dience enthralled throughout. the evening. Dy shelley y mcphee "This is fun. This is fun. This is fun. This is fun." I keep saying that, hoping that someday, some way I can convince myself that exercising is good for me. As of yet my body and brain just keep -resisting the 'stretching, bending, jumping, and rolling movements that promise to do my physique a world of good. It's the in -thing you know to lift weights, play squash, jog, do aerobics and yoga, golf, cycle and swim, and to be part of the crowd you must wear a pastel colored sweat suit and Nykes shoes. Perhaps that's were I've gone wrong. In my beat -up cut-offs, t -shirt that claims. "Every inch a woman," paint - splashed running shoes and socks that refuse to stay up, I just don't fit the ideal image of a healthy,: sports -minded 1980's woman. But that's not to say I haven't tried. Thursday nights I venture out to the Vanastra Rec Centre for an evening of exercise, swimming and sauna. Those are, without a doubt, the longest hours of my life. If only they'd let me lie down on my blue plastic mat and rest. I'm sure the clock at that place must be very, very slow, five minutes takes forever, and every week I'm sure I won't be able to survive through the entire hour-long class. Now the swimming part, that's okay. A great relief after the vigorous 60 minutes of aerobics. I can paddle around in the pool to ease my weary muscles and slow the old ticker down to its normally docile speed. On real energetic nights, I'll float across the width of the, pool, but swimming several lengths of the pool are out of the question, since I'll ab- solutely helpless in more than four feet of water. As for the sauna, the importance of this activity has somehow eluded me. The object, I understand, is to sit in this little room and sweat - yuk! Perhaps if saunas were bigger than a bread box, not jammed packed with 10 other wet, salty bodies, perhaps if one could do something constructive in them, like read a magazine, or have a little snack, they would be more appealing. But until someone invents a sauna that doesn't leave the body freezing to death when one emerges from the steamy room, I'll continue to avoid them. But I'll keep exercising, not for the fun of it, but for the_ food, of it. In my mad little mind, I reason that as long as I keep exercising, I can eat absolutely anything my tastebuds desire. A little running on the spot after supper will do the trick I reason, but time will tell. In the meantime, I can only hope that miracles do occur. 0 SAVE to X200 MAY 1 i0 JUNE 30 ONLY Now. great Canadian patio doors from Dashwood are available at great money -saving prices.

COUNTER CASH CARR BUILDING SUPPLIES Print:i)sY Street West tr'ilnfort 482461, 2•_„y ,.•, . Beautifully decorated on the spring and Klompen Feest theme, Mary's Sewing Centre fashion show last week showed off some of the newest home-made articles. Here Mary describes Chris Elliott of Hensall's outfit at the show, which raised several hundred dollars for the Clinton Nursery school and cancer research. (James Fitzgerald photo) Fashion show is a success On Wednesday, May 6 Cen- tral Huron Secondary School was the setting for a fashion show by Mary's Sewing Cen- tre. The proceeds were turn- ed over to the Cancer Research Foundation with an earmarking to be especially applied to cancer in childhood. Mary Divok has establish- ed this event as an annual means of showing the cur- rent fashions in the world of sewing. With a series of 26 models presenting 130 out- fits, this home sewing and fashion show day has become a popular Clinton oc- currence. More than just a fashion show, the afternoon and evening gatherings allowed everyone to browse among displays of handcrafts. There is a definite trend to an almost nostalgic return of doing some type of hand or needlework. The highlight, of course, was the fashion display and unlike most, all of these garments had been sewn by models or the people involv- ed with the pattern com- panies. There was an ex- cellent selection of clothing for all ages and sizes. Aside from the Simplicity, But- terick, McCalls, Burda, Kiwk-Sew, Style, and Vogue fashions shown, there was a contribution of approximate- ly 20- outfits designed by two young students at Fanshawe College in London. The program format was to show groups of designs in- cluding jogging and casual wear, q�dn outfits for children adults, and a selection of ethnic border prints. This season's western look was not forgotten with denim in skirts, vests and pants. The party time group was well-received by the many area residents who en- joyed the afternoon show. The evening show was an expanded repeat of the after- noon with more entertainers involved. The little Clinton Clickers were popular and appeared less nervous than their adult counterparts, the Klompen Feest Dancers. The changes in hair and Limited Time Offer makeup to co-ordinate with the fashions were most capably handled by Ramona Humphries and her staff from the Hair Shop. A charity fund-raiser takes the commitment and donation of time and effort from a lot of people. Mary's Sewing Centre annual fashion day has provided, Clinton with all the ingre- dients of high style presenta- tion with hometown ease. — an Pamela Stone Wingham calls in OPC WINGHAM - Wingham town council is calling in the Ontario Police Commission (OPC) to find out why that town's policing -costs are so high.

Council passed a motion requesting the Huron County planning department to authorize the starting of the work which will take about two years to bring to final completion. A road tour of township roads will be held Friday to acquaint members of council with the condition of the roads and bridges and to help them make decisions on work to be done this year and in the future. Council passed a bylaw for the hiring of a dog control officer — Harvey Hammond, at a retainer fee of $50 per month plus -other necessary expenses as outlined in the bylaw. Council passed its animal control bylaw, not covering pets such as dogs and cats, but domestic farm animals that may be allowed in small lots in built up areas of the township. The animals or birds will be allowed according to one unit per certain size of lot as laid out in the bylaw. One unit allows five laying hens or two beef steers or one beef cow and calf or one dairy cow and calf or one horse or one pony with colt, or -three goats and kids, or three sheep and lambs, or two pigs. Council worked hard and long in an attempt not to penalize any farm owner in a built-up area. Frank Reynolds, a farmer in Harpurhey, attended the council session concerned about restrictions on his 90 -acre farm where he has farmed for the past 46 years. Reeve Robert Bell assured Mr. Reynolds that a restrictive bylaw was necessary to prevent a beef feed lot operation or a large hog operation being set up in future ,years on farms similar to his in Harpurhey, Egmondville and other hamlets in the township. Council passed a fence bylaw which set - out the regulations governing line fences between properties, and appointed three fence viewers in case of disputes — Emmerson Coleman, W.D. Wilson and Elgin Thompson, who will receive payment of $20 for a day's work if called on to settle a problem. ' Three tile drain loan applications for a total of$28,500 were approved.
