On Monday afternoon, Hewitt Fashions set up their "store" in Maplewood's front lounge. Residents browsed through the items of clothing and tried outfits on. Many found new spring outfits. On May 27 we will be having our spring fashion show and sale with Geri Fashion of London. Everyone is welcome. Thank you to Anne Robinson, a busy Grade 13 student at Seaforth District High School, who took time on Monday to come to Maplewood ane decorate a window. She painted a delightful Easter scene of a little boy gathering eggs that the Easter bunny had left. 'Tuesday afternoon three tables of euchre were in action. What a lot of laughs and fun they had. :On Wednesday morning Rev. Henderson from Exeter conducted the ministerial ser- vice in the upstairs lounge. Thank you to Mrs. Brown for playing the piano and to Bob McMillan for introducing the minister. The residents enjoyed listening to Rev. Henderson. Wednesday afternoon the Huron County Health Unit provided foot care for the Seaforth area. The weather was very co- operative and many took advantage of the special service offered. Although the foot care was the main reason for coming to Maplewood there was a lot of visiting being done and that is particularly appreciated. SunLife Assurance Company ,,of Canada Thank you to the students of Mrs. Hoelscher's Grade 6 and 7 class. They came to Maplewood on Tuesday and Thursday morning and visited with residents and played crokinole. On Thursday morning Carole Carter came to Maplewood and played the piano for the residents. They sang along with the Easter hymns and spring time melodies. It is always a pleasure having Carole fill Maplewood with music. After she leaves, everyone comes to dinner humming the songs. Thank you to Mrs. Laycox who kindly looked after Maplewood's wayward kitty. Pumpkin went wandering and ended up on Market Street. Fortunately, Pumpkin wears a name tag on her collar and Mrs. Laycox called to say she had a visiting orange cat. With Easter weekend's weather being perfect, many visitors came to Maplewood and also many residents went out to visit relatives and friends. On Sunday, Maplewood was colorfully decorated in yellow and mauve including the flowers on the tables. At breakfast Easter morning, personalized colored eggs were served. Because residents went to church, Easter dinner was served later than usual. Ross Scott said grace. Then a delicious ham din- ner was served and finished with pumpkin pie and elderberry tarts. Sincere sympathy to the family of Mary Chapple. She was a helpful, caring volunteer for us since December 1986. She will be greatly missed.
