Emily Hartman took home first place honours in the Grades 1-3 cat- egory, while Charlotte Anderson was the winner in the Grades 4-6 catego- ry. Both will go forward to the dis- trict finals at the Kincardine Legion March 20. Ron Helm of the Exeter Legion reported there were 300 people in attendance at last weekend's com- petition in Exeter. There were 38 competitors between Grades 1-8. Competitors were the winners in their respective categories from the 13 individual Legion branch contests held in previous weeks. Speeches were three to five minutes long and Helm said they were "outstanding." "There were dissertations on poli- tics, history, mythology, vivid fiction and even comedy. There were some interesting reminiscences that were indeed surprising from some so young. The audience found the day interesting and entertaining and their pleasure was evidenced by the enthusiastic applause for each stu- dent's delivery." The winners were: • Grades 1-2-3, Emily Hartman (1st place, Exeter Public School), Haley Fischer (2nd place, Teeswater) and Shamus O'Riley (3rd place, Seaforth); • Grades 4-5-6, Charlotte Anderson (1st place, Exeter Public School), Thomas Fisher (2nd place, Wingham), and Derik Bachert (3rd place, Brussels); • Grades 7 and 8, Sarah Anne Cleary (1st place, Kincardine) Bruce Selinger (2nd place, Howick) and Jessica Sparling (3rd place, Blyth). cooking with memories BY DEBBY WAGLER WHO DOESN'T LIKE A QUICK DESSERT THAT IS A WINNER EVERY TIME?!
