(Shelley McPhee photo Huron Centennial School goes There's been some excitement in the Grade 4 classroom at Huron Centennial School this week. A wall in Mrs. Joan Allan's classroom is adorned by a 29 foot long snake, the creation of 10 students. Made from paper and paste; the snake is actually a word bank. Its long slithery body is covered with 27 words that describe a snake. What makes this word bank extra special is the additional work done by Michael Mc- Cowan and Donald Broadfoot. Now known as the class electricians, the boys have add- ed lights, a rattling tale and shining eyes to the snake. The mechanical snake Mrs. Allan's Grade 4 class made a 29 -foot long snake in the first term of school. They made it because they where doing a project on snakes. The electricians of the snake are Michael McCowan and Donald Broadfoot.

II iyil !moi" Ii ��74. ii �. spe ACVon L:rsis Centre By Helen Owen The ladies of Trinity Anglican Church Women in Bayfield met on Nov. 30 to celebrate the feast of St. Andrew. Despite the unpleasant weather a good number were present for the regular com- munion service at which the Rev. Gordon Reynolds officiated, and addressed the ladies on the life of the Saint they were honouring. The next item on the program was a pot luck luncheon served to the members and guests. As always this was more than ade- quate, and offered a variety to meet with every taste and appetite. President Lilian Beakhust, welcomed the guests and thanked all those who had helped in the preparation and the serving of the food. She explained that business would be reduced to a minimum on this occasion, but took time to distribute labels, which had been mentioned at a recent Deanery Meeting. Members were asked to affix these to a tin, and when an occasion arose which merited thankful appreciation, to make a donation. Treasurer, Greta Du Boulay, confirmed that all monetary commitments had been met. She also reported that during the year as a result of the various projects under- taken by the group, over $1,900 had been raised for the perpetuation and maintenance of work in the Mission field. On behalf of the Guild, Doris Hunter, thanked the ACW for their hospitality, and the Rev. George Youmatoff, describing himself as "the other guest" thanked the group and said he was impressed by the strength of purpose which had brought out so many people on such a deplorable day. Rev. Reynolds also thanked the ladies for their hospitality and added that he also wished to say thank you on behalf of the boys of St. Stephen's Choir who had describ- completely "snakey" What a snake Since the past term in Huron Centennial School Grade 4A made a long snake with lights and the whole bit. Michael McCowan and Donald Broadfoot with a lot of help from their classmates, they made it while they were working on snakes. What a scary snake. - by Laura Connolly.

What a super snake! - by Julie Smith. Village council... •from page 10 loaders to determine what the village needs. "This permission is not to allow Rick to buy a front-end loader, it is just to allow him to look at them," he said. Council received a notice that the village off Bayfield has received a grant of $18,000 towards the Secondary Plan Study. " Reeve Johnston told council that starting January 1984, councillors would be receiv- ing the minutes of committee meetings throughout the village. He said "We must keep in mind that some minutes may be late." and added, "We can't expect volunteers who write the minutes to have them written up the next day if they have a meeting the night before a council meeting."

Crisis Centre Gladys Malcolm introduced the speaker, Mrs. June Taylor, from St. George's Church in Goderich, and Diocesan Secretary of ACW. Mrs. Taylor, she said was on the Board of the local Crisis Centre and co- ordinator of the service for women after crisis. Mrs. Taylor began by saying that the film which she would show was based on a true and tragic story from the records of Osborne House in Winnipeg. It was a story of violence and abuse and as it progressed. the film revealed the despair which the woman in the story had suffered over a period of 13 years! She finally sought help because at that point she felt in danger of her life and the lives of her children. Subsequent episodes when the woman discussed her life with a counsellor were particularly poignant as they indicated the degree of helplessness and loss of self- respect which had developed over the years. In comparison, her husband revealed himself to be completely lacking in insight and totally unaware of his attitudes. The ensuing discussion which followed was subdued, especially when it was also revealed that the loneliness of the victim had been accentuated by lack of support from family and friends, as well as fear and ignorance with regard to seeking legal assistance. In conclusion, Mrs. Taylor, told of the work of the Crisis Centre which now operates from a house run by the Men- nonites. She stressed the need for this type of shelter, where those in need could take their children and seek help, support, advice and sustenance. Mrs. Taylor also reminded her audience that although she was an Anglican, the work undertaken at the Cen- tre, and at the After Crisis Centre, recently opened in Goderich, was shared by all denominations, as the challenge of the task was one which extended to all Christians. Helen Owen thanked the speaker for the film and the accompanying talk which, she said, had brought home to her listeners the very real and horrific situations which ex- isted, and added that they too would like to help on a practical basis. For this purpose she handed Mrs. Taylor a cheque as a con- tribution towards the worthwhile work which was being undertaken. LE'N'S S. CASUAL DRESS UP 110 SELECTION.
