It. is estimated that over 60 percent of swim- ming pool fatalities happen in residential (single family) or apartment pools. Children five years of age and under are particularly vulnerable to single family residential pools mishaps. The Canada Safety Council has some basic tips for the safe use of residential pools: -All pools must be fenced. Consult municipal by-laws to assure compliance. Where there are children in the home it is recommended that there be no direct ac- cess to the pool area from the house. -Electrical appliances are a potential shock hazard and must be kept away from the pool. -One person at a time should use a diving board or slide. Avoid deep or long dives. Place a safety float across the pool in advance of steep bottom slopes. -Adult supervision must be provided when children enter the pool area. Horseplay must not be allow- ed. -Life-saving and first aid equipment must be handy. The telephone numbers of your doctor, hospital, police and rescue unit should be posted where everybody can see them. -If you are taking medica- Lampoonery This week we have a treat for the theatre goers in our midst who enjoy a comedy -drama. Set in ancient times, the story centers around the age old complaint, "You just can't get good help these days." The players: King Fallenstaff-(an aging commoner who has been named king in the absence of mind) Roundheads - (there are four of these, three loyal and one not so loyal, whom the king bids to do his dirty work). Court Jester -(once a trusted employee of the King but who's jokes have become a burden) Louka-(the maid whom the King no longer fancies) Sentinels: Eduardo and Gonerol-(two former members of the Royal ad- ministration with whom the present King seeks ad- vice ) The Fool -(lives beside the King in the neighbouring castle and is looked on by the people as a cunning but not so lever yesman) The Hero, several, birds and animals and a host of others make up the cast. This two act play, with an option fora third, is called, "Little White Lies." Act One: Scene One; opens on the cricket court north of the town with the two sentinels talking and a fanfare. Eduardo. Hark fine Gonerol. What spaketh you of this day? Gonerol. The news from the King is not unlike a buff jerkin. Eduardo. Yes, yes, say it yes, only this morning I have advised the King that the players are unable to keep counsel! Gonerol. Poe- :ng thee- `ting, the jester and maid are not eao inured res a lyre! The sceee closes vitt a fanfare as the Sentinels engage in the cricket match. Act Ore: Scene Two opens with the King raising his voice to his neighbours window. King Fallenstaff. Oh Fool, Oh Fool, Oh pitious and uncouth Fool, I beseech you hear me out this dank night. Fool. Hark! I hear the King. (loud yelp as King stumbles and falls onto a thorny bush) King Fallenstaff. Oh Fool, Oh Fool, Oh clumsy Fool, I'll set the Roundheads on theyself! Fool. Do you wish me to service you oh King? King Fallenstaff. Harken to this old Fool! I have grown weary of my jester. His jokes are no longer a source of amusement, My maid bath' become tiresome as well. She sweeps the floors much too cleanly. I must bid my Roundheads to release them from my household. Fool. Trust in me, oh King, as you would tnist in Eduardo and Gonerol! Scene two closes„with King stumbling onto the same thorny bush and cursing the Fool in bis absence from the window) Act One: Scene Three takes place two days later in the local tavern in town. Jester. Fair Maid it looks as though the Roundheads have expelled us from the King's bosom. Maid. Hacked down in our prune in so little a time!! Jester. Slapped in the mazzard with the jaw of a goat! Townspeople. (hoisting tankards of fine ale) Long live the jester! Long live the maid! Jester. Speakest you against the pocky King? Townspeople. Down with the pocky King! Maid. Speakest you against the Roundheads? Townspeople. Down with the pocky Roundheads! Fool, Speakest you ag inst the Fool? Townspeople. Down with the pocky Fool! Jester. What do you speak of now? Townspeople. Long live the jester! Long live the maid! Scene doses with riotous celebration and much ale The fool, unnoticed, slinks out the back door headed for.the castle. Next week we will continue, maybe, with Scene Two of this old play within a play, play. Until then, Cheers. tion, consult your physician before swimming. Avoid alcoholic beverages before going into the water. -Teach all members of your family how to swim. Smile Experts who used to tell us how much leisure mankind would enjoy in the future didn't mention that it would be known as "unemploy- ment”. +++ A miser is someone who will catch another cold just to use up the cough medicine. +++ We have heard that the limbo dance was invented by a Scotsman trying to get into a pay toilet. fIigh fashion in Bayfield High interest in high fashion was demonstrated on Monday evening when some hundred ladies attend- ed a fashion show organized by the Pre -School Group in the Parish Hall of Trinity Church. Welcoming the large au- dience, Judy Huntley with Pat Van Biesbrock com- pared the show with profes- sional aplomb, detailing the styles displayed by the models. Over 40 different outfits were on show cover- ing overing a wide range of styles and materials. From the briefest of shorts and sun tops in stretch towelling to chic cotton suits for town or office, to beach wear and casual Bermuda shorts and shirts, the , models moved across the platform and onto the floor giving everyone ample opportunity to view from all angles. Color combinations, navy blue and yellow, natural and emerald green, soft greys and pinks with white trim, offered a great variety, all in materials easily laundered. Drawstring skirts and slacks were particularly noticeable, and there was a good selection of jogging suits, hooded jackets and T shirts. Star Models "Jodi" anti "Regan" elicited ap- preciative `ahs' when these two small girls modelled children's T-shirts and nightwear, both available with a choice of decorative panels. The display concluded on a practical note with a warm, cosy winter nightgown! Following the display Pat Van Biesbrock thanked all those present for their sup- port of this play group pro- ject, and also the merchants who had contributed a large number of door prizes, Elaine Brandon ' !for a beautiful display from her new store, the many people who had contributed time and effort in organizing the show, the church for the use of the hall - and Kettle Creek Canvas Co. and Alter- natives, who had supplied the fashions. An added bonus, much appreciated was a large donation from Glen Brandon. Everyone attending received 20 per cent discount vouchers for The Kettle Creek Canvas Co. and Just Hair. Door Prize winners were: Audrey Dollery, Wendy Turner, Chanda Chilton, Luanne Erickson, Helen Owen, Mildred Fellows, Ina Fisher, Carol Penhale, Milvena Erickson, Kathleen Siertsema, Jean Cook, Blossom Carrow, Darlene Reder, Joyce Chilton and Melanie Van Patter. As a finale, delightful refreshments were served. There was no doubt of the success of the enterprise and the Bayfield Pre -School ABC bridge results There were four tables out when the group met on June 3rd. Alice Brandon made the highest score with. 6310, Mildred Fellows second, with 6100, and Dawn Westlake low with 2270. Group are certainly to be congratulated on their in- itiative.
