Even the postal strike has
its compensations_ Over the
past five Thursdays and the
days in between, we have
met many of our stib►scrlbers
whom we do not normally
see. An interesting story
came . from one well-known
,ahltonian, Bob Morgan of
Mary Street who was telling
is that his post office box
number "24" has been in the
Morgan family for . four
generations starting with his
grandfather "Loch" Cree.
Doubtless, there are others
who can boast of using the
same box for a longperiod of
time, bit for the \nomads of
this world, hie yours truly,
memory recalls numerous
postal addresses, both urban.
and rural and near and far.

NOTE: We have a new one
to add to the list of clstomer
deliveries from the News -
Record office. As of now
Clinton subscribers to the
"Village Squire" may pick
up their August copy at our
office53 Albert St.

We would hie to say a
belated au revoir to Earl
Hilderley, former manager
of the Bank of Montreal and
a welcome to Reg Willson,

Joyce will be missed for
their involvement in our
community - but we un-
derstand they may be back
following their tour of duty
with the bank in
Leamington.

Three Outdoor Summer Projects
Are you bored? Need something to do? Here are some
ideas.
1.Make a Sundial
Telling the time without a watch is easy, if you know
how to make a sundial. A sundial is a clock that uses the
sun's shadow to tell the hour. To make one all you need is
a sharp stick about a foot long, a pencil, and a paper
plate. Push the stick through the paper plate and then
into the ground; When it's 9 a.m., noon, 3 p.m., and 6 p.m.,
put a pencil mark where the shadow of the stick falls on
the plate. The shadow is like an hour hand on a watch.
You can test your "clock" out the next day.
2.Make A Bird Feeder
Cut a 3 x 3 inch hole in a plastic container and put some
€cosi tri the bottom:last hilyds-like seeds—grocery stores -
sell the kind of seeds they like. Tie the container tightly to
a tree branch and watch the birds enjoy their dinner.
3.Make arSoap Carving
With a bar of soap and a knife you can carve whatever
you want to. Animals, people, boats, cars, houses and
trees are all possibilities. While you're carving,
remember to always push the sharp edge of the knife
away from you. The shavings can be used as bubble
bath!
