kp' fins ' remind Huronview
of when , they were young
-Sunday morning worship was held with
Reverend Normae Pick at the pulpit. The
message was entitled "Wh'at Does The Lord
Require Of Us?" One of the lessons learned -
from this is, "to be just ourselves" and not
pretend we are something else. Ghosts,
witches ' and gooblins were out in great
numbers as they arrived in the auditorium
Monday morning, to entertain 't -e residents
at the annual Hallowe'en part. Children
from grades 1, 2 and 3 along With their
teachers, Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Silcox
presented a delightful program. Mary
•
Gibbings welcomed our guests.
The youngsters, dressed up in costumes of
all sorts,recited, sang songs and performed
little exercises all about Hallowe'en. Three
young ghosts did a cute number by
themselves. Following the program, the
judges had a difficult task to determine the
winners. The costumed young people were
divided into categories and the winners are:
Kathy Andrews for prettiest costume, Kevin
Mead for ugliest, Mervyn Gas for scariest.
Nicole Harris for most -original, Pam Mills for
' best disguise, Vanessa Harris for best
character. Donna Bosman for best imitation
and Ben Lobb was winner for best creative or
imagination: Judges for this event were
Annie McNichol. Margaret McLaughlin,
Jennie Chesney and Golda Tyler.
. All of the children were given a treat of
refreshments and caramel popcorn balls
made by Helen Bradley. Annie McNichol
thanked^the teachers and pupils of Clinton
Public School. No doubt to see these young
people all dressed up, brought back a lot of
happy memories when "we were just kids".
In the evening, a few costumed characters
wandered along the halls, and got a laugh or
