The Huron Federation of Women Teachers' Associations of
Ontario held their annual fall banquet at the White Car-
nation in Holmesville last Wednesday evening. The guest
speaker was Dan Mansell, Regional Parks Superintendent
for Huron County. Eight new Huron County women
teachers were inducted. They are from left to right, back
row, Beth Querengesser, (Hullet), Kathie Richardson,
and `n'About.

from Comber who lives right
here in Goderich.
She had moved to Comber
after I moved away but she
knew all the people I had
known - things don't change
too much in a small town or
village.
Then I received a call from
a lady from Lions Head - and
we had gone to school

The Signal -Star and friend
"Mrs. B." of Goderich,
travelled to Comber and soon
others remembered
"Queenie" or my other name
(which I hated) Adal. No one
knew of '`Martha". Anyway -
I was in for a pleasant sur-
prise - "Mrs. B." - the go-
between - had visitors she
said I had to meet and I
hustled right over.
There, after over fifty
years was the "boy" I had
liked so much and always
respected above all others -
Albert, - the shy one, his wife
and friends.
Now I'm telling you, the
conversation was thick and
fast. They brought back
natnes that were just
"stored" way) back in my
memory bank -- told me about
people I knew -so well those
as some of them many years ago and - well,
you can just imagine how

couldn't someone start

meet my old school mates
and friends.
The recent G.D.C.I. reunion
was a great success with so
many older people coming
back to meet friends they
hadn't seen in thirty years or
so. The reunion photos in the
paper were a big disap-
pointment since few could
remember people's backs -

it happens.
I must say the photos of the
"Country Fair" were great,
boys. Mrs. Hardy should be
congratulated, too, for the
excellent show. Keep up the
good work, folks.
After the Halloween ex-
citement is over - let's hope
there were enough parties to
keep the kids out of mischief.
Of course it isn't the little
kids that do the damage but
that is not the feeling of
Halloween, the pranks are
supposed to be funny not
tragic or rotten.
I remember one morning
after - in this little town of
Comber - the upper flat over
the barber shop - I think it
was - had a balcony - not too
big either, but we all stared in
disbelief at a horse standing
on it! Now that wasn't kids
work and they had quite a
time getting the horse down
boys' ball team at school.
When I went into highschool
one prim and proper teacher
soon put a stop to that.
"It is not ladylike to play
leap frog and baseball with
the boys!" she said.
Broke my heart - I nearly
hated having to be in
highschool but then I was only
121/4 years old and I soon
found new and interesting
things to do - but never really
put aside my love for boys!
What am I saying? 'Strue!
Anyway, I had a wonderful
hour with old friends --
Albert's wife and the couple
with him, I should have
known - but although the
names were familiar I
couldn't just fit them in. But,
then, we all change so much
over the years that it is pretty

meeting. I did ask if there had
