ROUND AND ABOUT WITH MARTHAminnimminimminnimmo
From. Florida the Sunshine
State
Everywhere you go, people
are still working hard on their ,.
;1776-.1976 Bicentennial
projects. Something is
happening. every day. There
is lots to. see and as with our
Community Programs
Braiichof the Board of
Education- a few years ago,
they are trying to get people
to, take an interest in the skills
of , their forefathers -and
mothers, I must add.
AND - people really are
showing a renewed interest,
No matter what you show an
interest in - someone wants to
teachit to you:
Katie Cutt has done some
beautiful quilts - you al•1•must
have seen- 'one of them
recently. Well, there
are many quilts being shown
and sold here and the pat-
terns are lovely and ex-
pensive.
•I'm sure many young
marrieds' might be interested
in this .fine art - and I'll bet
Katie. would . be the best
teacher to talk to -- she's a
beautiful person. -
-There are so •many art and
craft shows - but you can't
say if you've seen one, you've
seen them all noway!
Yqu may get acquainted
with some of the craftspeople
and see them at many 'dif-
ferent shows, but thele people
make a living 'at their art.
Whether it is painting or -1
picking a banjo, ' it is still an
art:
Most of these arts started
out as. -"just a hobby" but the'
hobby grows better and
better as you work and learn.
Soon you run out of friends
and relatives to take your
product and you need a
market for your master
pieces. The small shows are a,
great help.
Summertime ise pretty
short, it seems, any more, so
you have to really work
during the winter and just sell
in ' the summer. The folks
south of,us do have, a long
summer, so you find 'them
working right where you.cdn
see what's going on and they
like to talk about their art.
The Venice Art• League
here is a great place. There
are, only two work rooms
half as large as ,the room • at
the old school we used as an
art room. but theyltave anice
sizedlroorn for the exhibitions
which goon continuously.
There • is also a room - a
sales room - where you'may
sell your work if you wish.
This is called "The Little
Gallery."
There . are ' critiques and
demonstrations. by
professionals open to the
members and other
programs offered free. I
mis ed'. the all media show,
ther painting and sculpture
show, • the water color
demonstration; and the batik
demonstration. • .
Lessons include painting
all media, sculpture,
enamelling on metal and a
class in basic and advanced
design and jewellery
techniques, There are
fourteen regular teachers and
many, guest .artists from time
to time.
The rooms are beingused
ill the time.
There are two. 'teachers of
sculpture. I took lessons from
John Worthington last year
and expect to start again this
week. Mr. "Worthington is 'a
great artist. Besides
memorials, busts and
beautiful big figures he
makes the busts for the Pro
Football Hall of.. Fazne and
many .othercollections; and
recently the - Vietnam War
Memorial; Canton, Ohio. 0
-I don't expect to do much in
this Class "but at least I. am
working with my hands and
seeingwhat and how others --
are doing.
In•this S. tnshine State there
are agreat many fine, artists.
I have seen the work of . .
several who specialize -in wild
life drawings. Just fanyiStic
drawings of the birderand the
beasts - they seem ' to knew ,
their subjects ssrwell that net
a feather or hair or . ex-
pression is missed.
One artist Karl E. Karalus
does a lot of, illustrations for
books 'an interesting- one is
"Owls • of. North America"
now in its third production,
and "Wading Birds of North
America" - a Doubleday
contract. These shouldreach
Goderich. .
Right now - this month, Mr.
Karalus may be in Rhodesia
and. Tanzania to do work -for
Wild Kingdom".
Talk to you again.

omen's Day Out
How to talk about sex
Many thanks to Margaret
McLean P•H.N. with the,
Huron County Public Health
Unit. ' She spoke with us last
Wednesday morning and
gave us someadvice on
"Survival Training for Sex
Questions".
Everybody is talking about
sex - everybody that is, ex-
cept parents who have the
most to say (and give). All too
frequently, they are silent.
Moms; and'dadsstill,stir their
coffee with forks when
"certain questions" are
asked:
I read recently that
"parents often conduct sex
education like a preoccupied
motorist. They sail right past
the stop signs, and sit like'
stalledcars in front of a green
light."
Margaret reminded us that
sell ;questions are as normal
to children as questions about
the weather. Question time
is teaching tithe, an invitation
to step into a child's private
thought . world -. simply, "
directly and naturally.
Sex education . is not a
lecture; it is life. The major
problems are:.
starting too late;
assuming too much; and
providing too little.
When a . chil•dasks a
question, he does not want all •
the truth at. once. He is not
interested in knowing all
about reproduction; or the
sexual act, , lovemaking. He
wants only a simple direct
Answer. Rule to remember:
Always tell the truth, (but not
necessaiily all the truth).
Don't tell him more than he
wants or needs to know. And
above all, avoid shame or
guilt when you talk with -your
child. -
As a.. parent, what do you
have to know to- get '= your-
teaching certificate in •Sex
Education?
1. A child must experience
from birth, a warm but not a
smothering , affection from
BOTH parents:
2. Children should be ex-
posed to :parents deeply in
love and unashamed to
demonstrate that love.
3. Help each child 'to identify
with his or her own sex while
respecting the opposite. ,
4: Provide a correct
vocabulary; use accurate
terminology. If you are
teaching a child to make
cookies, you do not refer to
the cookingutensils as
`thingamajigs" and
"whatchomacollets". You
teach correct names because
you want your child to learn.
With a young child, you do
not go into the technical
jargon about the' chemical
changes in the baking of
•
cookies. You proceed 6n a
,simple level - so it should be
with the facts of intimate life.
We should all capitalize on
many opportunities•innature
with the breeding of animals,
arrival of new babies, to
explain life to children. Buy
well illustrated books see
that your children learn the
score from you - not in the
sandbox from other kids:''
All, the mothers at MacKay
eflalI -found' the discussion
most enjoyable and- left
feeling they could handle
almost any , question and
situation that could arise
(unlike the mothers' in the
following story).
"A little: boy asked his
mothers where he came from,
and also where she had come
from as a baby. His 'nether
gave him a tall tale about a
beautiful white feathered
bird. The boy ran into the
next room and asked his
grandmother the same
question, and received a
variation of the same stork
story. He then scampered
outside to his playmate with
the comment, "you know,
there hasn't heen a normal
birth in our family for three
generations!" -- Heaven Help
the Home - H. Hendricks.
Hope you'll join us next
week,
