PHONE 396-2372 396-9942 Unique apple head dells to be sold at country fair BY JOANNE BUCHANAN Just like human faces, each face on an apple head doll is uniquely individual. "No two look the same," says Willa Bogie of Saltford who has been making apple head dolls for a little less than a year now. She plans to have about 50 of these dolls for sale at the Christmas Country Fair October 20 and 23. Willa learned to make the dolls after reading a book on the subject which she picked up on a trip to Toronto. She bought the book after ad- miring the dolls she had seen on display in stores there. Her first few attempts were given away as Christmas gifts last year. Since then, Willa says she has become better at making the dolls with practice. Apple head doll making is not an expenisve hobby. The only materials needed are apples (the Delicious kind work the best), some scraps of material for clothing, lemon juice, salt, apple keeper and silica gel. Willa uses straight pins for eyes and sometimes a bit of paint for the cheeks. Her husband_ Barry makes the little wooden rocking chairs which accompany some of the dells., Other accessories include tiny brooms, newspapers, knitting needles and yarn. Even though there isnot much expense involved, apple head doll making is a time-consuming hobby and Willa finds she has to be organized to fit it into her already busy schedule as a hair dresser and mother of HAPPY 30Th ANNIVERSARY Mom 8 Dad Love, Len, Pot, Kerri, Erin zehrs fine markets.. of fine foods THE LOWEST PRICE H 0 LI DAYS A'N LIOA1 A PACKAGES WITH zehis SAVE & FLY® $5 TRAVEL COUPONSUNE FREE WITN EVERY $50 ZEHRS ORDER COMPLETEDETAILS IN STORES STORES Sample Holidays , with max. per Departure from reg.

However, she says since she enjoys the craft, it is worth taking the time to do. Willa actually enjoys a whole range of crafts. She has taken several craft courses and, can do ceramics and silk flower , arranging. She also taught herself to do macrame from a book. She enjoys going to craft shows just to pick up ideas for crafts she might like to try. However, she never thought she would end up in a craft show herself. "I'm still wondering how I got talked into the whole thing," she says a bit ner- vously inanticipation of the upcoming country fait. The Method Willa says the method for making apple head dolls sounds complicated but is really very easy: Start with a peeled apple. Carve out a face with a knife. While doing this, keep dip- ping the"apple in lemon juice to keep it ., from turning brown. Sprinkle with salt and hollow out the core. Put apple keeper (a yellow powder which can be bought in local stores) inside where the core used to be to keep the apple from spoiling, Next, put the apple in an oven on low heat for about one hour so it will partially dry. Hang it up for a week until it gets quite pliable. Then pinch it with your fingers every clay for about five days to make the cheeks and chin. Take the apple keeper out and put the apple in silica gel This wrinkled little man is just one of many apple head to finish drying it.

Buchanan) Evelyn giving up fair BY JOANNE BUCHANAN Mrs. Wilmer (Evelyn) Hardy, the driving force behind Colborne Township's popular Christmas Country Fair for the past 17 years, is calling this year's fair her last. Next year's fair will be organized and run by the Bluewater Chapter, Order of the Eastern Star bodge. Mrs. Hardy and a committee of five other women -Phyllis Allin, Ila Bean, Adelaide I agan, Grace Easom and the late Annie Lamb -started the fair in'1965 at Carlow Hall with about 12 exhibitors, in- cluding themselves. Since that time, the fair has grown hi leaps and bounds. Several years ago it was moved to Saltford Valley Hall to accommodate the swelling cro_wd,S. This year, several thousand people are expected to visitthe fair during its two-day- ... fun Octobet M'aridli. There Will be about 60 craft- exhibitors..aleng With. !Mr people selling produce and a -bout -25 people selling homemade baking.' For the last 10 years, Mrs. Hardy has had the committee of Blanche Kerr, Tryn De Groot; Iia nun-, Dorothy 'fisher, Evelyn .Allin. and Edna Moore_ helping her. For the last 16 years, Bernice Fisher has convened the baking section (if the fair. This section has been known to take in as much as $1600 over the two days. While Mrs., Hardy is extremely modest and quick to name all the people who have helped her over the years -including the Ministry of Tourism which mailed- 2200 brochures 'advertising the fair free of charge the first year --it is clear that she took the lead right from the start and has oecn the main organizer ever since. She has done the majority of the advertising and publicity work fQr the fair. Andshe has always searched out new' talent to feature each year. In fact, as soon as one fair ended, she would begin otganizing the following year's. "It's been a lot of work and respon- sibility but I've received a lot of enjoyment and satisfaction front 'it," she says. "I knew i had to give it up some time and I often wonder how I've gotten along as well as I have over the years." This last statement refers to the fact that Mrs. Hardy is somewhat handicapped by the brace on her leg and crutches she must use since contracting polio in 1954. Organizing the fair has been good therapy for that handicap because it keeps her . Now that she is giving up the respon- sibilitie,s. of the --fair, Mrs; ..Hardy.says_she .. would like to do more travelling. She will -also .--have--more---time-to-spend- •-on- -her weaving hobby. She is a member of the Huron Tract Spinners and Weavers Guild and'alsn teaches weaving to beginners. She has promised the Eastern Star that She wilThel'p them •with the organization of • the Christmas Country Fair for their first few years at the helm. And the fair's successful structure will remain the same- -only 25 cents admission at the door and a small fee for exhibitors, with Colborne and Goderich exhibitors getting space preference.: So, a tip of the hat to a modest Mrs, Hardy for keeping a good thing going all these years. Let's hope the fair will do equally as well under the auspices of the Eastern Star. fi mtw5 Oct. 13 to Oct. 19 DAYTIME MORNING 5:00 Religious Town Hall (Wed.) 5:00 A Better Way (Thu.) 5:00 Christopher Closeup (Fri.) 5:30 University Of Michigan Presents -6:00 Open Comero (Wed.) 6:00 TV -5 And Your Community (Thu.) 6:00 Scope (Fri.) 6:00 U.S. Farm Reports (Mon.) 6:00 Health Field''(Tue.) 6:30 Early Today 7:00 Today 9:00 Diff'rent Strokes (R) 9:30 Wheel Of Fortune 10:00 Hawaii Five -0 11:00 Hour Magazine AFTERNOON 12:00 News 12:30 Search For Tomorrow 1:00 Days Of Our Lives 2:00 Another World 3:00 Fantasy 4:00 Movie (Mon. -Thu.) 4:00 Mom And Dad Can't Hear Me (Fri.) 5:00 Strawberry Shortcake in Big Apple City (Fri.) 5:30 MASH WEDNESDAY DAYTIME MOVIES 4:00 "Lady In Cement" (1968, Mystery) Frank Sinatra, Raquel Welch.
