Coats for kids program in Huron County
EXETER — The Red
Cross is organizing a
"Coats for Kids" cam-
paign in Huron County
this fall.
This county -wide pro-
gram is a new endeavor
for the Stratford/Huron-
Perth branch of the
Canadian Red Cross.
During the month of
September, "Coats for
Kids" will be collecting
winter coats and other
outdoor apparel for chil-
dren and adults.
The Red Cross hopes to
have two or three collec-
tion centres in each town
throughout the county.
Oct. 15-17 they will have
distribution centres set up
in Goderich, Clinton,
Seaforth, Exeter,
Wingham and Brussels.
In order to reach as
many people as possible,
they also need volunteers
to pick up coats from col-
lection centres and trans-
port them to the closest
distribution centre.
As well, the Canadian
Red Cross is looking for
volunteers to help with
sorting and set up the
week of Oct. 12-15.
They are also needed for
distributing items at each
of the distribution sites
Oct. 15-17.
The Red Cross is also
seeking the assistance of
businesses and organiza-
tions by offering to be col-
lection sites where people
can drop off coats.
A second initiative the
Canadian Red Cross is
leading with the support
of Wal-Mart will be pro-
viding children in need
cooking with memories

THE FOLLOWING RECIPE COMES FROM MY GRANDMOTHER
PURDY. IT WAS ALMOST A GUARANTEE THAT THESE
SQUARES WOULD BE AT GRANDMA'S HOUSE WHEN WE
WENT TO VISIT. SHE WAS AN AWESOME COOK AND HER
KITCHEN ALWAYS SMELLED WONDERFUL,
HER FOOD ALWAYS WAS GREAT AND I AM AFRAID THAT THE
MENU WAS TAILORED TO THE GRANDCHILDREN. I GUESS
THAT IS THE WAY OF GRANDMAS BECAUSE MY MOM IS THE
SAME IN WANTING TO PLEASE THE KIDS!
As IN THE TWO PREVIOUS RECIPES, THIS IS A NO BAKE AND
EASY ASSEMBLY RECIPE. ENJOY.
BUTTERSCOTCH
SQUARES
1/4 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup peanut butter
1 package (6 oz) butterscotch chips
1 bag miniature marshmallows (coloured)
Melt butter and peanut butter. Stir in butterscotch Chipits `til
melted . Add marshmallows, stir till mixed and then pour into
a 9x9"pan Tined with waxed paper. Chill and cut when cold.
This recipe freezes fantastic if you can get it to last that long!
