Wendy Neufeld, librarian, introduced three new books which had been obtained at the Eighth International Conference of La Leche League in Chicago by Barbara Kerr, the group leader. "Organic Cooking for ( not so organic) Mothers" by M. A. Bumgarner was praised for its interesting food facts and easy recipes. For a refreshment later, everyone enjoyed eating meusili, made from one of the recipes in the book. "Breast Is Best" was written by a husband and wife team of doctors and was presented as a good resource book. This couple spoke at the opening session of the conference. The third book, the newly revised and expanded "Womanly Art of Breast='"' feeding" has been especially published this year to celebrate the silver an- niversary, of LLLI. It gives the mother a wealth of infor- mation about virtually every aspect of breastfeeding while at the same time sharing the sense of wonder and delight that are so much a part of parenting. These three books have been autographed by their authors and were added to the library of LLL of Belgrave. The mothers discussed ways of providing a varied diet of nutritious fopds for their family, emphasizing a good breakfast., Snacks • for toddlers and ways to make food interesting far them also were noted. Foods for nursing mothers were covered as well.

Anyone who may have any dried flowers, grasses, seeds, corn husks, etc., we can always use them at the centre. Also, if anyone in the community has a skill at a certain craft and would be willing to volunteer their services please contact the centre at 357-1440. Last week the seniors had the opportunity to see some slides of Newfoundland. I!' drove to Eastern Canada for my vacation and spent most of my time in the province of Newfoundland. For some of the seniors the slides were of new places, but others who have traveled in the province found them to be of familiar scenes. If anyone in the com- munity is thinking of getting started . in some volunteer work this fall,.. the centre is always in need of volunteer drivers. We do pay our volunteer drivers gas mileage and the distances travelled' are riot too far or too time demanding. If interested, call or -drop - by the centre. 26th Dairy Princess to be crowned at CNE Crowning of the 26th On- tario Dairy Princess takes place September 2 at 5 p.m. in the main ring of the Coliseum building at the Canadian National Exhibi- tion.
