The comparatively mild weather we have been getting lately has taken some of the numbness out of the blahs, but most of the people in Seaforth admit they are in the wintery clutches of the blahs in one way or another. Some of the winter veterans in Seaforth have methods of combating the blahs, which they have shared with The Expositor, and we in turn pass on to you. TRUDY BROOME, Seaforth's Librarian, says she hasn't even noticed the, blahs this month, as she does all her spring cleaningJi) January. She says if she gets it all chine now she will have free time when the weather gets nicer.

Her two children, Nicole and Michael, keep her busy year round and there is no room for boredom to step in. LORIANNE MOORE has a couple of pre- school children, Nicole and Michael, who. keep the January blahs away from her. JIM WATSON says the Legion keeps the blahs away from him. He has something to do there three or four nights each week, and plays euchre there every two weeks. His method of beating the blahs also involves taking a vacation in February or March to help speed the winter. He is going to head south to Florida to get in some golf. ANNE WOOD doesn't get to go on holidays though, and like most of us has to suffer through the winter. She says she goes to work every day and thinks about summer and that keeps the blahs at their distance. "Go to all the hockey games," is how IDA MCLLWAIN advises to keep busy during the winter. Mrs. Mcllwain has two grandsons playing hockey, so she hasn't found January too bad. She has also gone on several trips to see her Grandson Dave McElwain playing with the Pittsburgh Penguins, which helped to speed the winter along. STEPHEN HUS•SFY has one of the more severe cases of boredom in Seaforth, and he really doesn't see there is much he can do about it in Seaforth But he has developed a system of sorts to try and keep the blahs at bay. He says you have to start the day with a coffee at Ginettes, and end the day with a coffee at the Pizza Train. Somewhere bet- ween that you work in 13 hours of T.V. NANCY STAPLES' idea is a little more exciting than Mr. Hussey's. She just got back from a trip to Nashville. While there she saw Opryland and did a lot oiaightsee- ing "A little trip after Christmas never hurts," she says. Many of the older people of Seaforth, winter veterans, don't need much to get them through the winter. Just talking to a friend at the post office was enough to keep two elderly gentlemen occupied for most of one afternoon last week. The people of Seaforth come up with a lot of ways to get through the January blahs; some interesting, and some pretty blab themselves. People will drink, participate in sports, watch sports, go to work every day, go to town and get the mail, and any number of other things to try and keep busy. But from what is evident by polling and talking tothe people of Seaforth, the only ways to ensure oneself of a blah -free January is to either go to a tropical island, or to have a baby.
