OF 60 KIDS answers wanted for Seaforth questions DT PATRICIA RiMMER A month from now I will be living in Sarnia where I will be going to school, Since I am staying in residence, 1 won't have to worry about catching buses too often. But 1 am concerned about getting to know Sarnia. It will probably take a long time to get to know the best eating spots, entertainment spots, movie theatres, and bowling alleys. But I don't suppose I will have a lot of time. Where do you get information about a town or city that cannot be found in a telephone directory? Sure, you may suggest a tourist brochure, but such a pamphlet does not contain the day to day information that you may need. Take Seaforth for example. There are a lot of things about this town that you may or may not know. Here are some questions. See if you°can answer them. How do you go about getting into one of the many service clubs in town? If a guy wants to get into the Minor Hockey League, who does he contact? How many baseball teams are there in Seaforth-and how does one get onto a team of his/her choice? What kind of facilities aqd clubs are available for senior citizens in Seaforth? Who would you' contact if you would like to start a new organization or club in town? Would you have to get permission to hold a gathering in Victoria Park? Who is on town.council? Who are the presidents of the service clubs in town? Thinking on a more everyday basis: which stores in Seaforth are closed on Wednesday and which stores are closed on Mondays? How many hairdressers are there in Seaforth and how many barbers are there? How many hairdressers cut hair in their own homes? What is the average rate of a s , cut and style? If someone ' oved to Seaforth and needed a person to cut their lawn or shovel their sidewalk, where could they find such a person? Who would this person call if they needed odd jobs done around their house and didn't have time to do it themselves? When is the public library open?' Are there any day care facilities available in Seaforth? It seems that all of these questions can be answered just by word•of•moutll or by living, here for a length of time. They may seem like silly questions but to a newcomer, they are very important. It is a hard adjustment to make moving to a new town and it can be made a lot easier if these questions are answered. 1 guess that, is why we are lucky to live in a Small town. People are friendly enough that they don't mind being asked questions such as these. If a person wants to become involved in our community the doors are open. If you are willing to volunteer a few hours, there are many groups that welcome the help. Seaforth is called the friendly town and it should and does live up to its reputation. When newcomers move in to a house near you or you come into contact with them in one way or another. Even if you have lived in town for a while you may not know the answers to the questions asked previously. In order to answer all of. these questions correctly you would have to go to many sources. I would like to answer these questions in a future column but need your help in finding all of the correct answers. if you know the answer to at least one of the questions asked please write to me at Boa 278, Seaforth, Ont. NOK I WO. Also, if there is a question that you would like to know the answer/for please write me as well. I will be only too glad to answer these questions in a future column if 1 get enough serious responses. Perhaps you have infor-° oration that is. interesting and worthwhile about another organization in town that 1 haven't mentioned. Please write. It could make life a lot easier for someone new in,our town, KLEENEX FACIAL TISSUE 89 PKG. OF 200 DEL MONTE 48 OZ.

Pets were provided by staff members, but children were there as well, and it was good to see them handling and caring for the pets. There were dogs, cats, white rats with babies, a raccoon, a goat and birds, including parrots, budgies and parakeets. One of the parrots at age 65 years, could sneak in French, Spanish and English. Just of what her vocabulary consisted was hard to say, since she wasn't in a talkative mood when some of us were around. it was barbecued hot dogs andinamburgs on Tuesday noon, for all the ladies on Ground Centre. Wednesday was a beautiful day for a number of residents to visit with Helen Bradley. and enjoy a picnic lunch on the back lawn. When Helen lived at Huronview, she had a wonderful rep.itation for her delicious baking. and on returning home. we thought that was the end of it. but not so.
