Santa opens Thumbers' party On Thursday night at Victoria School, the laughter and excited voices of 27 young boys and girls could be heard. The Goderich Green Thumbers held their Christmas party and also the last meeting for the year 1977, Santa Claus came to of- ficially open the meeting. He greeted everyone and asked members what they would like for Christmas. It was a grand opening. With a jolly "Ho Ho Ho" Santa said farewell. .°It was then time for some creative arranging. Agnes Bedard kindly donated vases and material for the children to "do their own thing". Each child was given a container, statis, ribbon and bits of seasonal floral and materials. Members have been selling tickets on an afghan for the last few months. The children have really worked hard on this project and are very pleased with what was ac- complished, The lucky winner of the green and yellow knitted afghan, was Wendy Good, RR 5, Goderich. scR 1 011 am las 'Ha to I. t1 :tt) i On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me one delicious cookie. These junior students at Holmesville Public School used real props when they sang the Muppet version of the Twelve Days of Christmas at the school's Christmas concert recently. At the end of the song the students proved how delicious the cookies were by eating them all.

B. G. Manly, Administrator, County of Huron, Court House, Goderich, Ont. N7A 1M2 BY Joanne Walters A very special commitment has been made by two members of this community. Mr. and Mrs. .C. Gowers of Goderich have joined Foster Parents Plan of Canada. They have "adopted" little Esmeralda aged six years of Tumaco, Colombia, Mr, and Mrs. Gowers'------montftly contribution of $19 brings help not only,to the foster child but to every member of the, family. Esmeralda has six older sisters. The total monthly income of the famly is $35.29. The mon y that the Gowers send provides the family with a monthly cash grant or material benefits, free medical and dental care, free prescriptions, the sustained guidance and counselling of social workers the benefits of many special programs. The objective is to provide the family with tools to help them become independent and self-supporting. The Signal -Star has been informed that two names were inadvertantly omitted from the program of My Fair Lady, a play perf� rmed at G.D.C.I. last week.Darrell Kloeze and Earl Raeburn, both French horn players contributed equally to the pit band says Jim Peters and maybe even more so due to travelling from the country. Also, John Kloeze, who was responsible for lighting was missed on the program. A friend of mine says he never wants to see Las Vegas again. His luck was so bad, he lost his shirt in a coin laun- dry.
