lrlosbaes of the Seaforth 4-H
Club spat last Monday to c►

recipes furtheMiltMakes it Bet-
ter, and Explore 4-H programs.
Their purpose was not only to test
the recipes for taste appeal, but also
LO Cnsutc that instructions were
wntten clearly enough that young
persons, inexpenenced in the
kitchen, would be able to follow
than.
"There area kx of things you
catch going through dust process,"
offered Sherry Boyce -Found, 4-H
Resource Specialist from Guelph.
She added that food projects are
always tested, first by a Mester, and
then by 4-H members, before they
are incorporated into a program.
These particular projects utilize
recipes featuring different dairy
products.
"We want to sec how the kids
understand the instructions, where
clarification is needed, and what
terminology needs explaining," she
said.
The idea of the food projects is to
teach nutrition and techniques of
food preparation. However, the
main thrust of all 4-H programs is
to develop the personality of the 4-
H member.
Explore 4-H is a program usually
reserved for younger 4-H members,
because it gives an overview of the
programs that are available. The
Explore 4-H menu consists of six
meetings, each dealing with a dif-
ferent topic area.

TASTE TESTERS - Janet VandenHoven, Leanne Vogels and Kerrie
Thompson, all members of the Seaforth 4-H Club, volunteered
recently to do some taste testing of dairy -related dishes for a future
4-H project. Robinet photo.
Milk Makes It Better, on the other
hand, is a total foods project. Mem-
bers study food for the entire six
weeks of the project - its nutritional
value, different ways of preparing
it, and ways to present it. Most of
the products used in this project are
Ontario grown.
"4-h is a time for opportunities,
and the experience of trying dif-
ferent things," commented Diane
O'Shea, freelance Home Economist
for 4-H.
"Kids' tastes are pretty basic, and
food is such a unique thing. We're
so fortunate to have so many kinds
of foods grown here. We like to
stress the use of Ontario -grown
food. It's a subtle, but underlying
theme."
4-H is open to all males and
females aged 10 to 21. For more
information call the Clinton OMAF
office.

Ideas needed for A.Y. McLean memorial project
BY SUSAN OXFORD
A memorial in honour of Andrew
(A.Y.) McLean is closer to
becoming a reality after a meeting
held by representatives from various
Seaforth interest groups. The brain
storming session resulted in it
becoming clear that more invol-
vement from people in the com-
munity was needed.
A.Y. McLean (1909-1988) was a
former editor and publisher of three
newspapers, including The Huron
Expositor. During the Second
World War he served as a squadron
leader with the R.C.A.F. in Halifax.
He served as MP for Huron from
1949 to 1953, and was involved
with many organizations in Seaforth
over the years, including the Legion
Branch 156, and the Lions Club. He
was a longtime member of the First
Presbyterian Church, and served as
chairman of the board for the
Seaforth Community Hospital.
Representatives from most of the
above mentioned groups auended
the November 28 meeting at the
Seaforth Town Hall. The group
selected a name for themselves, the
A.Y. McLean Memorial Project,
and set about setting a goal. That
goal is to establish a suitable
memorial in memory of A.Y.
McLean in recognition of his
lifetime contributions and service to
the Town of Seaforth and surroun-
ding community.
The group then tossed around
ideas on what form the memorial
should take. Some of the sugges-
tions were: a bursary; erection of a
bridge or friendship arch at Lions
Park that would be accessible to
baby carriages and wheelchairs;
small park; journalism project; local
library/museum to hold history of
the community; landscaped outdoor
sitting area at hospital and plaque;
and, hospital room or equipment.
Regardless of what form the
memorial takes, it was agreed that
it should be a memorial which will
become a community project and
that would benefit the whole com-
munity.
To achieve this, the group would
like suggestions from other groups
in Seaforth, or interested in-
dividuals.
People with ideas to
contribute are asked to contact
