ZURICH CITIZENS NEWS — CHRISTMAS EDITION
ST. JOSEPH and DRYSDALE
Alfred Ducharme, Correspondent
On Sunday last visitors at the
home of Mrs. Josephine Du-
charme and son Isidore were
from. London, Mr. and Mrs.
Claude Gelinas, and from Sarnia
Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy Koreu.
Mrs. Adeline Denomme, who
is in residence with Mrs. Du-
eharme, left on Saturday for a
three-week v a .c a t i o n visiting
with her children in London,
Goderich and other parts.
Mr. and Mrs. Isidore Corri-
veau and daughter Kimberley
were week -end visitors with Mr.
and Mrs. Joseph ''Corriveau and
family, on this highway.
At time of writing we are
having nice fall weather, and
all of that will help to shorten
the winter months.
P.S.—A very Merry and Joy-
ous Christmas to all on this
Wednesday morning, and we
wondering if it could be near-
ing the tail end of our passing
Indian summer.
Surprise Visit
On Monday . morning, shortly
after dawn, a knock came to
the door of our house, and be-
ing a cloudy morning one had
to take the second look to make
sure who was there. TITe Du-
charmes were surprised when
opening the door to see the two
gals waiting a welcome to come
in. After taking the second
look at the two ladies in ques•
tion it was noticeable they were
not garbed as visitors—they
had the necessary needs to put
on a finishing touch to the Du-
charme house. Shortly after
their arrival they began to move
things around and start their
work.
At times the two giggled as
much as to say, "we have the
run of the house today", Yours
truly at one time asked to enter
the front room to listen to the
news of the day, and was told,
"if your shoes and nose are
clean". That hurt •at the time
but since we are nearing the
Yuletide season it was forgot-
ten. By the way, those two
gals in question were Mrs,
Theresa Hartman, •of Zurich, a
daughter, and Mrs. Avila Du-
charme, of this ;highway, a
daughter-in-law . The elder Du-
charmes appreciated the sur-
prise visit and expect them to
call again.
P.S.—Our story on our first
voyage away from home will be
continued in the next issue of
the Citizens News after Christ-
mas. Have a happy holiday
season, everyone.

YULE LOG TRADITION
Bringing in the Yule log is a
Christmas custom handed down
by the Scandinavians. The .huge
piece of wood was hauled into
the house and placed on the
fireplace. Then the party be-
gan, with every man, woman
and child in the room doffing
his hat as he passed, knowing
full well that the log was full
of good promises and that its
flame would burn out old
wrongs.
After this as part of their
feast, hostesses served Yule
dough, or Yule cakes, on which
were impressed the figure of
the infant Jesus.
