Ail Octel er 19, Marie Flynn and The
Huron Strings entertained the residents of
Maitland Manor at the monthly birthday
=The Circle city elides - Sherry Good,
'Brennan and Crystal Mathers - at-
tended the party as well and danced a few
numbers, accompanied by Rosemary
Mathers. Celebrathrig their birthdays were
Gordon Drennan, Lloyd Zinn, Muriel An-
drew, Dr. Robert MCCesh and Verde
Denonntne.
The Manor was quite a spooky place on
Halloween with lots of tiny ghosts, goblins,
witches and little devils running around. In
the morning, Mrs. Evy McDonagh's nursery
school class visited and in the afternoon,
Victoria Public School's kindergarten class
came over with their teacher, Mrs: Beth
Wark.
The residents toured the countryside on
October 18, for their annual fall colour trip.
Their bus driver, Everitt Robinson, went the
extra distance to make the trip interesting
and enjoyable for everyone.
The residents had the opportunity to go to
the Senior's , Communion at St. George's
Anglican Church. On their arrival at the
church, they were each presented with a
lovely corsage and after communion, were
treated to a luncheon in the church hall.
The Maitland Manor residents' annual
bazaar and' tea was held on Saturday,
November 5 and was extremely well attend-
ed. Winners of the draw were: Daisy Scott
who won the Christmas wreath; Margaret
MacDonald, a resident of the Manor who
won the pillow cases; the silk flower ar-
rangement went to Joyce Bentley; and last
but not least, the ceramic planter, made by
the residents, was won by Madeline Mom-
uette. We would like to thank everyone
who orated items for the bazaar, those who
worked at the bazaar, those who attended,
and the kitchen staff at the Manor for the tea
and luncheon,
On behalf of the residents, we wish to say
a special thank you to Cathy Wiebe, the Ac-
tivity Director, for all of her hard work and
effort in organizing the bazaar.
A new activity has begun at the Manor.
Karen Kirk is holding a baking club for the
residents. This will give the ladies an oppor-
tunity to again try out some of their
favourite old recipes on each other.
A fond farewell to Margaret Swan of the
Manor's housekeeping department. Mrs.
Swan has retired after 14 years of working
at the Manor. Saturday was her last day.

Saturday. Here, one of the shoppers at the bazaar selects some ceramic items made by the

Goderich native presents research at conference
Carolyn Watters, daughter of Dr. and
Mrs. W.N. Watters of Goderich, recently
presented a paper at the first Canadian
conference on design of very large scale
integrated (VLSI) microchips. The con-
ference was hosted by the University of
Waterloo.
VLSI refers to new methods that shrink
the size of and squeeze more computing
power into the silicon chip that is driving the
personal computer and other technological
revolutions. Better VLSI design methods
are needed because present methods are too
slow, unreliable and expensive.
Carolyn, who received her education in
Goderich and at the University of Western
Ontario in London, is one of the researchers
with the department of applied
mathematics at the Technical University of
Nova Scotia in Halifax. These researchers
are developing easy-to-use software in an
attempt to simplify the VLSI design process.
In an article appearing in the October 28th
business section of the Globe and Mail,
writer David Helwig reported that it took
Carolyn only three weeks to develop a
software package for interactive chip
design, working with the university's
Applied Microelectronics Institute.
The system, which produces VLSI designs
from logic diagrams, was implemented
without an expensive work -station or a

a
special purpose computer language.
"The intention of this,..is to encourage
both computer, science and engineering
students to develop their own design
systems as part of their involvement with
VLSI. Such basic involvement permits
demystification of computer-assisted chip
design for both egineering and non -
engineering students," Carolyn said in her
paper presented to the conference.
Four students at the University of
Waterloo have developed a prototype
compiler (computer program) which
designs silicon circuits about 10 times faster
than available design aids, according to
Professor Mohamed Elmasry, director of
the university's VLSI circuits group.
The compiler's user-friendly software
allows circuit masks to be produced
automatically from logic equations,
although the user can intervene to make
changes during the process.
The University of Waterloo intends to
spend about 35 per cent of a $1,622,000
federal grant for development of VLSI
design tools. About 30 per cent of the grant,
announced by the university two weeks ago,
will be spent to design microchips. The
remaining 35 per cent will be used to develop
new simulation tools to evaluate VLSI
designs.

was held in Dungannon United Church. The
choir sang two anthems, Hold the Port, and
Something to Sing About.
Ann Feagan of Nile recited the poem, hi
Flanders Fields. Rev. Roberts spoke on, God
speaking through War andoMemorles.
The minister and congregation joined in,
An Act of Remembrance.
The Boundaries Advisory Committee of
Huron -Perth Presbytery met on November 3
in Blyth United Church. None of the
problems presented were discussed to an
ultimate conclusion. After a suggested
motion, it was decided the committee should'
meet again with representatives from the
churches concerned. The meeting was
adjourned without any action or proposed
action being made.
The flowers in both Dungannon and Nile
churches on November 6 were placed in
loving memory of Pearl Agnes Watson,
whose death occurred last Monday. The
congregation extends sincere sympathy to
Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd Hodges and family and
other relatives.
