Dancers show their stuff to residents
HURONVIEW - The auditorium was filled
with residents and visitors on February 24
when they came to listen to the lilting
strains of old and new favorite tunes. Marie
Flynn and the Huron Strings were on hand
and the popular style of their playing, kept
everyone in a lively mood. As an added at-
traction, the square dancers put on an ex-
cellent show of the two-step, waltz, polka
and several other routines, and they made it
look so easy.
The following afternoon adjuvant staff
had a meeting with the members of the
blind. The purpose of this get-together was
to determine what interests those residents
with failing eyesight have. The people who
still have the use of their hands are able to
do various things such as crocheting,
perhaps knitting simple patterns and with
the use of the large type numbers, are able
to
the,
bingo. There are as well, good music
programs for those who like to listen and en-
joy the art of music and song.
Something with a difference was an event
that took place on February 26. It was
"Ladies Day Qut" and it went over with
great success. All the ladies gathered in the
auditorium and were guests of the men who
put on a program, and served tea, crackers
and cheese. There was a beauty contest that
got a lot of laughs. The entrants were
beautifully gowned and their makeup was
flawless. The "ladies" were in such total
disguise, our minister thought at first
glance, they were new residents.
The men who so good humorously took
part in the show were Louie Wild, Jim
Wilson, Ernie Appleton, Wilbur Godkin,
Levi C• rter and Fred Hoepfner. Ernie Ap-
pleton"' won
p-pleton"'won the prize, but the men were good
sports.
A musical program was presented and the
men taking part in it were Wayne Lester,
Adam Wilson, Steve Cook, Jim Rudock,
Frank Bissett, Wilbur Godkin and Stu
Taylor, who was the master of ceremonies.
Thanks to the ladies in the sewing room, and
view on January 27 and entertained the
residents in the chapel, playing many old
and sew selections on the organ.
The people involved in the Hug (Help Us
Grow) program were present for their
weekly visit. Games of skill were played,
after which it was decided to bake shamroc-
ck cookies. With all hands taking part, it
wasn't long before residents were sampling
them. They went well with a dish of ice
cream covered with mint sauce.
Roman 'Catholic Mass was held on
February 28 in the chapel, with Rev. John
Pluta in charge.
Huronview welcomes Inez Cameron and
everyone who had a part in making "Ladies Annie McNichol.
Day Out" such a great success. To the family of the late Clair Hall, sym-
Ed Stiles from Goderich was at Huron- pathy is extended.
Club first meeting
CLINTON - Clinton No. 1 4 -Hers held their
first meeting at the home of Pat Saunder-
cock. With the help of Lexie Murch the six
members started reading their etiquette
books.
The roll call was what does the word eti-
quette mean to you? Most of the answers
were manners.

and how to qet a buffet table. For the elec-
tion president was Sylvia Crich; vice-
president was Lloyann Adams; secretary
was Colleen Gower and press reporter was
Sheri Oesch.

hand. We need to have someone who knows
what to do," he said.
Mr. Denomme also told council a person
was hired last year and he noticed an im-
provement.
Mayor Balfour explained that a town com-
mittee is looking at the landscaping of the
library park and a new parks program is be-
ing worked out, therefore, council will loo
into the matter and give the BIA an answer11111
Permanent Christmas Tree
The BIA was considering having a perma-
nent Christmas, tree in town but Mayor
Balfour gave the three members present at
the council meeting a different idea.
"This is just a suggestion, but what if a
Christmas tree was outlined on the radar in
lights. It would be high enough to eliminate
vandalism," he said.
The BIA had originally thought of placing
an evergreen in a planter box similar to
what had been done in 1985, but they will
take the mayor's suggestion back to their
committee.
Sidewalk Sales
Clarification of how and where merchants
may place their articles for sale on the
sidewalk was the final topic BIA members
had to discuss with council. Mr. Denomme
explained the placing of the articles has
been abused in the past and people were
forced to go off the sidewalk to get by.
Mayor Balfour said the Town of Clinton
does not have a bylaw concerning sidewalk
sales but clerk Cam Proctor is collecting
,- sample bylaws frw i other towns to see wPat
''they do i,n.,r• 4
'" ''Mr. Denomme said; "I don't think we
want to make them (bylaws) too strict
because that could cause more problems."
When the sample bylaws have been col-
lected, they will be passed on to the BIA who
will bring their suggestions back to council.

GEM SOCIETY
TRANQUIL AQUAMARINE
Aquamarine, the beloved gemstone'
of sailors of old, transports its wearer to
the blues and greens of coastal waters
just off tropical shores. Water -of -the -
sea is the meaning of the Latin word
aqua -marine. Let your eyes rest on the
aquamarine and think of the yacht an-
chored in harbor, its teakwood deck
moving gently under your feet as you
look into peaceful waters. ,
Aquamarine is a stone in the beryl
group, a sister stone of the emerald.
The most popular cut for aquamarine,
in fact, is the emerald cut, the cut used
to enhance the stone's tranquil colors.
Because the deeper blues are the most
valued stones, many aquamarines have
been color enhanced by heat treatment
to attain the deeper hues. Aquamarine
is found on every continent, and in gem -
quality in fairly large sizes. The gem is
affordable.
In the ealry 1900's a very large gem -
quality aquamarine was found,
weighing over 240 pounds. That stone
was cut into a number of important
pieces. Even now a 13 -pound portion of
that find resides in the American
Museum of Natural History.
Aquamarine is the traditional March
birthstone and is beautiful in many kin-
ds of jewelry.
