Every student in Seaforth goes throughthe same pleas- big experience of trying on shirts, pants, sweaters and a good pair of jeans trying to find something that your parents approve of. Almost every father in Seaforth has, the pleasing, experience of signing chequestopay for these nice clothes, 'books, shoes and accessories for their child's'school year! No one actually looks forward to the last week of Summer Holidays. Not even the teachers. Mothers of kindergarten age students. hate to send their children off to school for a whole morn- ing. They kiss their children; good-bye and tell them that they'll still be able to watch, the "Flintstones"with her in the afternoon ,when he/she, gets home from a hard day at school. She also tells them that there will be a nice glass:'. boy that she sent off tot kindergarten just 13 or 14 years agog Of course their tittle girl or boy will come 'home almost every, weekend. .and they will always do their dirty .laundry and send home a fresh baked apple pie but they, always worry that their children won't be eating right etc. Also the fathers don't look forward to the last week of holidays. The last week of holidays means more bills to sign just after they finished paying for swimming lessons summer school, a new bi- cycle, bikiniond icycle,.'bikini,and tennis les- sons in the summer. The bills sure• do add up after you buy 510 worth of school books, a shirt that cost. you 511,00 and pants that. cost S22.001• Fathers love to see their intelligent children trudge through the snow to, go to school to get educated. so that they'll be able to pay ' them back, someday when they're a lawyer or doctor.

It's really hard tosay good-bye to your bikini, bicycle and summer holidays. You can't help but wish that winter would go by as fast as summer does. Then we'd all be happy!

A lack of heat inthe present library had resulted in the deterioriation of some of the ,, books and it was. decided that better', facilites' were needed. ' • One of the main sug- gestions for . a new library was given by Doug Kirkby, chairman of the Walton re- creation committee: 'who' showed'. some rough. `plans that the recreation commit-' tee had drawn up for a type of community- centre that would hoose a library,,: wash- rooms 'and ashrooms'and a food stand for. the ball park.

Morris council' had. had for a library such . as building a • new" library on the present.site onethat would be a bit bigger and cost about:59,000., Morris council also talked about the possibility of 'using a trailer .which would cost about $6,000 or 57,000 but' would be a little harder to. heat.. However, since the library is located on a road allowance, there was some questions as to whether or not that was :a good site: to use. • Mrs. Noreen. Gnay 'a member of the Huron: County Library Board' said that the library would, probably get better 'circulation if it were moved to better quarters.

Reeve Elston said there was no Woo -gilt of closing the library. "We're not going to 'close, it even if we have to spend S10,000," he said. He told the audience they could get: grants from..

The chain letter scheme was brought to. Seaforth about two weeks ago, and the story circulating at the time was that the letter had beenstarted by a group of - Kitchener lawyers. An OPP spokesman in Toronto said last week the scheme is of "considerable size" and . probably involves 100,000 or more people. le. . The chain letter promises that a partici- pant can earn more than 5200,000 with an investment of only 5100. • ' LThe OPP special investigations branch in Art@/�t/ort, hunters Toronto has launched an;'investigation of THE HURON ;EXPOSITOR.

The rains we've had this summer have come- at just the right time for this tasty berry and: the crop is the lar$est ,I've seen for a number of years, Thimbleberries are often called: black. ,raspberriesby many people, but they are quite: a 'bit different. The wild: black raspberry is small and quiteround' while the thimbleberry is enlongaated,often being as lar8e as the tip of your little finger to the first joint. The flavour is also somewhat different. It is not quite as sweet as the raspberry,: and; isa little flatter tasting, but is, still a delight to enjoy, The seeds in the thimbleberry are quite hard and gritty so it is best to: prepare them for use as a jelly only, Our two favorite 'recipes are Thimbleberry Jam (jelly) and a dessert we make up. and call a freeze.. For the jam, we basically follow the jelly recipe in the pectin packa8e but use more berries than the recipe calls for. We also art back slightly on the sugar to avoid getting a jelly that is too sweet,. For the freeze, we crush and squeeze one quart of thimbleberries, In a pot we combine 'A cup of water and a cup of sugar and boil till the temperature reaches 230°, Three egg whites are beaten till stiff and then slowly added to the sugar syrup, stinting constantly till cool, The juice from the berries is added to two cups of whipped cream, and . then . folded into the egg mixture. This, mixture is put in the freezer for at least four hours, although overnight is better, Whenready. to serve, let stand at room temperature for about 20 minutes then watch your guests dig in. This recipe. will make, about 8 generous servings, Puffballs will soon be in season, but it's been a dry fall for them so far. I've been 'out .looking without success, but Mac Elliott told me he has picked , a couple of small ones for his first: feed of the year. If we get some rain, we could have a pretty fair crop but if it stays dry they'll be spotty anti 5 ails, like last year, se•a** When it comes, to dressing up an artificial bait, everyone knows that a piece cif Pork rind works, However; not too many people carry ajar of rind in, their tacklebox, so if you think the action is a little slow, and want to try and pick it up, try this trick, Cut a strip of belly skin (with meat attached): from a fish you've .already caught and. thread it on, the hooks of your favorite spoonor spinner. The strip should be about an inch wideat the front tapering to the back and two or three inches long. This little trick can often: make the difference between a so so day and a full creel. �s,sas* Remington has, just announced that they now have interchangeable barrels for their model 3200 over andunder shotgun. The basic gun in one of these sets will be the competition grade. 3200 with 28" skeet choked barrels, The other barrels will come in 20, 28 and 410 gauges giving the skeet shooter four guns in one for, all aspects of the game, Another new release from the same people is a 26" full :choked barrel for, their 12 ga. 1100 and 870. While most people prefer a longer barrel in full choke, there apparently has been,enough interest in this length to warrant a limited production run. I have always been a fan of shorter barrelled shotguns, and as the Remington, people put it, the short barrel should be quite popular with turkey hunters. Skeet shooters might also find this little tube quite interesting, Just think what you could do in a competition with a skeet barrel on your gunif you used, this short full choked barrel in practice. -It would quickly let you know if you were centering your targets, or just catching them with the fringe of the pattern If you're interested in one of .these barrels, I'd suggest you get your order in early, as therewill be a limited quantity, available. warns Morris, Grey and. McKillop could get together and have the Wintario representative down from Hanover .to talk. about grants for a new library.

Mr. Dodds said while the people who originated the chain letter could make a lot of money, those near the bottom of the pyramid: will almost certainly lose.
