(David Emslie photo) Past president CLINTON - The immediate past -president of the Ontario Council of the Catholic Women's League of Canada, Sheila Howard of London, was the guest speaker at the Christmas meeting of St. Joseph's sub- division in the parish hall. Mrs. Howard, who is president of WOOMB — an organiza- tion which fosters natural family planning, addressed the group on the great impor- tance of family life. An outstanding and dedicated woman (she is the mother of seven children) Mrs. Howard in 1967 was the recipient of the Queen Elizabeth Silver Jubilee Award for volunteer work m her community. The gathering which took the form of a pot -luck supper, was preceded by a mass said by the spiritual director, Father John visits CWL Pluta. In place of the usual exchange of Christmas gifts, a donation of money was collected to be forwarded to the poor. Corrie Brand, president, announced that on December 8, a Respect for Life mass will be held in St. Joseph's Church. This year Mr. and Mrs. Gerald Ten Hag and family have volunteered to erect the Christmas creche in the sanctuary for the Christmas season. Shut-ins in both the parish and Huronview will be visited and remembered with a gift at Christmas time. A January meeting has been slated for January 12, with January 19 as a storm date.

Childhood Christmas memories were recalled as 35 members answered roll call. At a short recess, four members paid their dues, making a total of 68 and several bought their banquet tickets. The secretary had received the annual mailing letter from USCO. One matter to be dealt with was: since membership has become so large, USCO has decided to divide Ontario into seven regions, namely: north-west, south-west, north-east, south- east, north central, south central and Metro Toronto with a regional director to be ap- pointed for each area.

Judy Stuart and Marlene Forbes led in the worship service. A silver heirloom water Tg was used to illustrate the purpose of the CW. The water jug with it's many prac- tical purposes; of being part of life long memories and as an object of beauty enriching our lives as does the spiritual growth in the UCW enrich our lives. Entertainment was by Bob Mann and Fred Lobb with Old Time music played on the violin and piano, and by Gladys VanEg- mond with several piano selections. Guest speaker was Susan Tyndall of Toronto. She gave a talk on how to get more value from life. The Coffeemates presented a comedy skit Tea and Sympathy, portraying the change from WA and WMS in 1962 to UCW and to the present day UCW. The evening was made very special by former members of the UCW returning to Ontario Street to spend the evening and renew friendships. The birthday cake was cut by 1962 Presi- dent Doris Batkin and 1987 President Evelyn Merrill. Fulton urges drivers to be extra cautious Taking a few extra precautions will make driving this winter safer and more pleasurable, Ontario Minister of Transpor- tation Ed Fulton said today. "With shorter days and longer nights, it's important to remember that Ontario law requires your car headlights be on one- half hour before sunset and until one-half hour after sunrise," said Fulton. "Local newspapers and radio stations list the on and off times for vehicle lights. "As this is National Safe Driving Week, I would also strongly urge all drivers to wear their seat belts every time they get behind the wheel of their vehicles." With snowplows and other winter maintenance equipment now operating on many highways, drivers should be addi- tionally cautious, Fulton added. "When you see the flashing blue light, reduce your speed and give the snowplow lots of room," he said. "These extra -wide, slow-moving vehicles often travel in tandem on the highway, so never try to pass between them. "There isn't enough room and the ridge of snow they toss out could throw your vehicle out of control." Carrying a motoring kit in your car trunk is also a good idea, said the minister. "The kit should include an ice scraper, shovel, booster cables, flares, blankets and a first aid kit," said Fulton. "And be sure your car is properly tuned and has the correct tires and fluid levels. "Finally, be extra cautious of other drivers, and watch for hazards like ice pat- ches and debris on the road," he conclud- ed. "If every driver in this province makes safe driving a habit, we Gould see a dramatic reduction in road deaths this winter."
