Mrs, Leonard Prang and Mrs.
Jim Parkins conducted two
classes on the "Vegetables with
a Flair" course.
At the first class vegetables
were cooked and baked in dif-
ferent methods. Salads were
demonstrated and made at the
second class. All ladies who
attended classes enjoyed them
very much and the leaders are
to be commended for present-
ing such a interesting course.
The ladies served lunch at
the bean board meeting on De-
cember 2.
A donation was approved to
the Rest Home Building Fund
and $15 was sent to the Chil-
dren's Aid Society for Christ-
mas.
Mrs, Howard Finkbeiner
thanked members for pot of
mums she received while she
was in hospital.
The ladies accepted the in-
vitation to Crediton WI, where
Crediton WI demonstrated hair
styling as their program.
WE HAD A WING -DING
Boy, there's nothing like a
week -end in the city to relax
you. Every so often, rigid with
the tension of small-town living,
my family and I tear up the
budget, fling it and caution to
the winds, and have a wing -
ding.
At least, last week -end, we
had a good excuse for a wing -
ding. Our baby, the brown -
eyed butterball whose diapers
we'd changed with delight, the
little boy we taught to swim
and skate, was playing the lead
role in his college musical,
Everything, as usual with a
Smiley family wing -ding, went
according to plan. We get our
plans from the chap who used
to write the sketches for the
Three Stooges.
Night before, had a small
party. Next morning, both alarm
clocks didn't go off, as they

always don't do in such cases.
Half an hour late, picked up our
passenger, a nun (don't ask me
to go into all this), and took
off.
I was glad I'd practised low-
flying in the air force. The two
hour trip to the city took one
hour and 22 minutes. There
were almost three minutes' of
that (I kept count) in which
Sister Ste Bonavenure and my
wife were not talking. Excit-
edly,
Checked in at the hotel. The
girls went in all directions. I
tried a combination of coffee,
morning papers, and hair of
the dog, which tasted rather
strongly of wing -ding. Boiled
wing -ding.
Before I'd even begun to wish
I were home, the family was
there; old woman eager to talk
to kids; Kim, full of ideas about
things we hadn't time or money
for; Hugh, bright-eyed, bushy -
tailed, and broke.
Lunch. For four, $12.50. Had
promised Kim she could buy a
guitar with the money she'd
earned playing organ at church.
Went to music store. Went
through half-hour of 70 adoles-
cents playing 70 musical instru-
ments, simultaneously.
Viisit to one of those wild
record stores, to pick up a Bob
Dylan record and the latest
Rolling Stones (more organ
money). I stood outside and
watched the hoods go in.
Wished I were a hood and had
no family.
Scramble back to hotel. AU
hands try guitar. Fix up faces,
Rush by cab to buy roses for
leading lady. Leading man
broke, still.
Fly to theatre. Thrill to
brown -eyed butte r b a l l (see
above) singing, dancing without
disgracing family. Totter back
to hotel (brown -eyes off to
post -production party which
lasted until dawn).
Try to convince Kim (14 and
with first eye -shadow on) that
it's bedtime, not coffee-house,
folk -singing time. Succeed by
falling asleep in middle of
speech. Wake up to chaps
watching late movie. Order
tea all round. At 40 cents a
tea -bag.
Can't sleep with traffic out-
side banging, crashing, screech-
ing, hooting, and drunks next
door laughing, singing shout-
ing.
Four -thirty a.m., the old
woman smells smoke. Snarl at
her. Seven a.m. she wakes me,
triumphantly. Below is the fire
truck. Outside our door are
six firemen. Seems there was
a blaze in next room, where
the drunks were. Try to sleep.
Seven -fifty a.m. Kim wants
action. A walk, breakfast, any-
thing. Snarl at her. Nine a.m.
church tower across street be-
gins bonging bell. Snarl at or-
ganized religion.
Old Battleaxe can't sleep. At
9:30, have to give learned, liter-
ary criticism of kid's perform-
ance of previous evening. At
10:30, Kim starts binding about
going to a movie. At noon, the
star turns up hungry, broke.
I suggested cheap lunch and
home. Vetoed. Everyone wants
Chinese food. Swinging Chinese
dinner at four p.m., Sunday af-
ternoon. Try it: $12.00. Check
out. Leave son looking lonely,
Momma cries. Dad drives 100
miles home through the light -
glare of 7,000 drunken deer -
hunters heading back to city.
Everyone sleeps on way
home. Dad wheels into garage,
leaps out, kisses floor of gar-
age. Nothing like a wing -ding
in the city to get you away from
small-town nerves.
