After a deli- cious dessert of Christmas pud- ding, Dougall introduced the guest speaker, Shannon Ryan, of the garden centre at Hansen's. Shannon showed the group how to make a great outside contain- er arrangement that would last all winter. Bev Campbell thanked Shannon with a gift of apprecia- tion. President Fern Dougall opened the business portion of the meeting with a poem and the Institute Ode and the Mary Stewart Collect was recited. The roll call took place with everyone telling of a special Christmas gift and Mabel Stanlake had the best gift of all when her son was born on Christmas Eve. Marilyn Pym also had a baby girl born a few days before Christmas. A report on the board meeting held in November was given and Marilyn gave the group several dates to remem- ber for the com- ing year. Business being concluded, the programme committee took over. Lois McFalls had a comical reading and Bev Campbell had a quiz. The arti- cles were gath- ered up for the Children's Hospital and then a gift exchange took place among the members. The afternoon ended with a social time and Marian Dougall served punch and cook- ies. Signing up to serve Canada By Pat Bolen TIMES -ADVOCATE STAFF EXETER — Dec. 15 will be an important day for an Exeter resident when he becomes a member of the Canadian Forces. Paul Denomme, 20, said he is looking forward to going overseas, "and serving my country." After completing his ini- tial training which begins Jan. 6 at the Canadian Forces Leadership and Recruit School (CFLRS) in St. Jean -sur -Richelieu, Que., just south of Montreal, Denomme will undergo further training at Borden. He will serve as a com- bat engineer, which was his first choice of three possible trades; the oth- ers were infantry and armour. As a combat engineer, Denomme will have a variety of jobs, including construction of bridges, buildings, roads and air- ports, as well as detecting and disposing of mines and other explosives. Joining the military is something Denomme said he has been thinking about for the past two years and he decided to go through with it this year. Other members of his family have also served in the military, which is something Denomme said was a factor in his deci- sion to join. After applying in the summer, he was informed by the military two weeks ago he had been accepted Denomme said he has been told the first couple of weeks of training will be tough but says he looks forward to it. He is intending on mak- ing the military a career and is looking at future '+�JaLN 4J�L. 44 i}»4 r �JaL� *JsLk *Jill 1)4 1(l ong s Grand Bend Clothing CIHRISTMEIS OPEN HOUSE Thurs.
