Clinton lady's crisp wins
This summer, in celebration of the McIn-
tosh Apple, Ontario's gift to ;the world,
Foodland Ontario sponsored a recipe con-
test - 'Your Favorite Apple Dessert'. Over
700 recipes poured in from across Ontario.
The winning recipes are a testament to
treasured traditions:" it seems that grand-
mother's apple pie is still as popular as
ever!
Fifteen prizes were awarded and three top
winners selected by five judges: Elizabeth
Baird, well-known food historian and
cookbook author; Carroll Allen, editor of
Recipes Only; Judy Creighton, food writer
for Canadian Press; Helen Gagen and Lucy
Waverman, prominent magazine and
newspaper food journalists.
The judges agreed that most of the recipes
were variations of old-fashioned favorites
but with some new twists.
To qualify for the Foodland apple dessert
contest, the recipes had to contain at least 4
Ontario apples. As well, all other important
ingredients should be grown in Ontario. Ap-
proximately 40 recipes were tested and
judged on appearance, taste (flavor/tex-
ture), complexity, originality and use of On-
tario ingredients.
Myrtle Hamilton, Clinton was one of the
third prize winners with her apple dessert.
Congratulations! You'll be wondering what
she made and the following is her scruptious
recipe. Try our Ontario apples and make it
for supper tonight.
The crunchy texture of this not -too -sweet
variation of apple crisp complements the
juicy, fresh taste of the apples.

CLINTON - In honor of this week being the
Week of the Child, the following is a short
history of the Clinton Cooperative Nursery
Incorporated,
The concept of a nursery school in Clinton
was started in 1962 by Sally Refuse at the ar-
my base in Vanastra.
Sally Bird brought the school to Wesley
Willis Church in 1968. It was then a private
school with an advisory board.
In 1975 Sally McNichol took over the
school. At that time there was no parent par-
ticipation, therefore, in 1978 she instigated
the concept of the co-op school.
Their basic philosophy is "Learning
Through Constructive Play."
This is taking place in a happy, controlled
environment. However, it is not structured
and different material and equipment'are
used for the teaching.
The children are learning through their
own experiences and gaining a healthy at-
titude towards school.
All parents help in one sense or another.,
The parents, through the Executive Com-
mittee, are responsible for the administra-
tion of the school.
They are expected to manage the school
as active members of the executive through
a committee capacity. This is crucial for the
well being of the school.
The committees include those for fun-
draising, social, housekeeping, publicity,
curriculum and purchasing.
This year the school has some very active
committee heads, therefore they are looking
forward to an excellent year of happiness,
cooperation and success for the Clinton
Cooperative Nursery School.
Those working with the school feel for-
tunate to have the support and generosity of
Wesley Willis United Church for the use of
the basesrnent of the -church at a very
modest rent.
This year the school has 49 children enroll-
ed, and there is one opening left for the
Thursday afternoon session.
The school has early registration in May,
and later, in September, another registra-
tion day is held.
On October 8 an open house was held at
the school and the nursery school children
thoroughly enjoyed showing the family and
friends' everything at the school, just as
some of the children's older brothers and
sisters have shown the family the week
before at the "Big.School".
The children enjoy being given the oppor-
tunity to be tour guides for an evening.
There are still many opening left for Duty
Parents and a few spots left for Non -Duty
Parents.
Duty Parents help once a month at the
school either by bringing a snack or just by
helping out with whatever activities are on
for the class.
Non -Duty Parents are people who work
and cannot held.during the day. If these peo-
ple can find someone to do this duty for -
them, this is fine. Non -Duty Parents pay
more than Duty Parents.
Anyone interested in such duties may con-
tact the president of the school, Nancy
Anstett at 482-3006.
The program objectives are:
-to provide a warm and secure atmosphere
where each child is encouraged to develop
his or her personality
-to •develop socialization skills and respect
for others
-to develop motor skills and physical
Coordination
-stimulates curiosity, imagination and
creativity
-develops self expression and vocabulary
-teaches spacial concept, color relationships
and awareness in rhythm and music
-encourage independence and confidence in
performing tasks expected when entering a
regular school
It is most evident there is a need and want
by parents in the community to be involved
with the preschool experience of their
children in a very cooperative manner.
