Everyone to their own taste. But there's one thing to tie said in its favour from the media viewpoint. At least •it's refreshing to read a hap- py headline among such others as "Dollar Tumbles"` or -Mail Strike Now in its 2$th ,Day" or Interest Rates to Rise Again". And while speaking of newspapers, and this one in particular, we are still holding back issues of July 2, 9, 16 and 23 for Clinton box - holders and general delivery subscribers.

She is also sur- vived by brothers Jim of Seaforth, Webster of New Hamburg, Bob of Toronto and sisters Ann of Hensall and Tena of Clinton. Mary had three grandchildren - Cameron, Donna Lynn and Robert. - Mary loved her communi- ty and served it in numerous ways. Perhaps most outstanding in her life was her love of flowers and her love of people. Mary was for- ever inviting friends to visit her gardens and she gave many many gifts of flowers, roots and bulbs. She had af- fectionately received the nick -name, the Flower Queen of Huron County. Mary always regarded flowers with such beauty that she loved to share them. She began in 1919 a very long teaching career having graduated from Seaforth Collegiate Institute in 1918 with a Middle School Honours certificate after at- tending for two and a half years. She attended Normal School in Stratford the following year. Her first . school was in Grey Township followed by S.S. No. 7 Tuckersmith. Her adventuresome nature then took her to Sault Ste. Marie, and S.S. No. 3, Tuckersmith was her next assignment un- A PLACE FOR KIDS 4!Si rt , p' ' H �► 4r7 41. tib co ht Jing Band Music Are you bored? Are the long summer days stretching into eternity? Well, perk up, here's an idea that will keep you and your friends laughing for hours. Make some jug band music! Jug band music started years ago when people couldn't afford. to buy real pianos, guitars, or drums. Every person in a jug band creates an instrument from things found around the house. Get a group of people together and make a band. Many materials for making jug band instruments come from the kitchen — take a look around and create some music makers. An elastic band around a cake tin can be snapped in rhythm. Egg beaters sound like the twang of electric guitars. Experiment. -- To make a kazoo, wrap some wax paper around a comb, put it to your lips, and hum. Another type of kazoo can be made by cutting the bottom out of a paper cup, covering the top with wax paper,(held in place with an elastic band) and humming on the paper. Drums are easy to make. All you need is a pot, tin, metal bucket, cardboard box — anything hollow will do — and something to hit it with. Try all kinds of containers and see how many different drum sounds you can make. You could always put some dried beans in a pie plate, glue or tape another plate on top, and voila!, you have a tambourine. A few stones inside a jar or tin makes another type of tambourine. Cymbals can be made by banging two pot lids together or hitting a metal pie plate with a spoon. For different notes, fill some glasses with various levels of water and tap gently with a spoon. Once you make your instruments, find a few friends, and pick a good song, you can rehearse to your heart's content. After a little practise you can put on a show!

She resumed teaching at Hensall in the spring of 1955 until her retirement in 1966.
