Mrs. Ida Brombole, of Asquith, Saskatchewan, travelled to Goderich to see her brother, Vito Barbaro, whomshe hasn't seen for 25 years. The chain of events started two months ago when Vito - wad hospitalized and seriously ill. The nursing home had only Ida's address and had received a letter from her at Christmas, time and were un- sure if she was still there. Through the long distance operator, Ida was finally con- tacted. After that initial contact, Ida decid- ed to come to visit her brother•. She talked to her parish priest in Asquith, who con- tacted the CWL in Saskatoon who, in turn, contacted the President of the CWL Coun- cil in London (Mrs. Sheila Howard). Sheila in turn, contacted the past president of the Goderich CWI, (Muriel Murphy). Past president of the Goderich CWI,. Genevieve Madden opened her home to Icfa and also drove to London to meet her at the airport to. bring her to Goderich. Since then, Ida has toured Stratford, Bayfield andsurrounding areas of Goderich. There were a few .anxious moments when Ida and Vito were first reunited. Vito filially acknowledged that .Ida .was his sister with the help of family pictures taken in Italy. Vito has enjoyed some special meals prepared by his sister at Gen's place and brought it to Maitland Manor in a basket. Ida was the guest of honour recently at a farewell supper at Gen's home with new friends Ida made while in Goderich. Ida said she was very surprised that she would • find such a warm hospitality in Goderich. "I am so pleased that- everyone is so nice. I'll be going home with a happy heart and no guilty feeling," she said. She said she would like to thank all the staff at Maitland Manor for being so kind to her everytime she went to see her brother. In many driving situations there are signs - and signals that tell'you what to do. You gets the message and you act accordingly. At other times -there is no sign, no signal, no tip-off of any kind. In fact, there are none that can be given in some situations. Can you pass that. car ahead or not? Can you safely make' a left turn before oncoming traffic arrives at the scene? Should you try to' take that curve at your present rate of speed? There's no mechanical action of any kind that•will give you the word, but the Ontario Safety League offers this helpful rule — if in doubt, don't!
