THE HURON EXPOSITOR SEAFORTH PHONE 141 Damage$2,000 In Dublin Crash Some $2,000 damage was caused in an accident at Dub- lin Monday morning. George Bulleng St. Marys, was on his way to Clinton. When he came to the , bridge at Dublin he found cars parked on both sides of the highway, just in advance of the bridge, and a dump truck nearer the bridge. He safely passed the two cars, and then touched the ,damp truck, and crashed into the northeast corner of the bridge. There was only minor damage to the truck, driven by George Lewis, Norwood, but the car was badly damaged. Mr. Bullen, who was wearing seat belts, was uninjured: Both accidents were investi- gated by Constable Kenneth McKay, of the OPP, Sebring- ville detachment. Cpl. John Lightfoot, also of the Sebringville detachment, investigated an accident Mon- day at 1:15 p.m., on the fifth sideroad in Logan Township. Damage $800 Damage totalling $800 result- ed Monday when two cars were in collision west of St. Colum - ban. OPP Constable Al Bower- ing, who investigated, said visi- bility was at a minimum. A car driven by Kuo Chun Wong, Seaforth, was being pull- ed from the south ditch where it had skidded, when a car driv- en by Ralph J. Strauss, Kitchen- er, was in collision with it. A Perth County man, John Stacey, RR 5, Mitchell, had both legs broken in an accident Mon- day afternoon on the ninth con- cession of Logan Township. Wingman on .one of the Perth County plows, Mr. Stacey is confined to Stratford General Hospital. The accident occurred about 2:30 o'clock one mile east of Highway 23, near the Bornholm intersection. While plowing the road the plow, operated by Lloyd Davis, 'Fullarton, came upon a car abandoned in the middle of the road. In attempting to pass the car, the wing of the plow caused some minor damage to the car. Visibility at the time was practically nil. The plow continued past the car and then stopped while the "nen went back to get the license number of the car. It was almost covered with snow, and while Stacey was digging out the rear licence, a car came PIANO LESSONS BEGINNERS or.

Home and School (Continued from Page 1) . closely together, it is necessary for the school to report to the parents in some way on how the child is progressing. He named the different varieties of report cards used and discuss- ed their differences and values. He explained the kind used at Seaforth, which involves the grading system. This gives the whole picture of the child's ability, whereas marks give just the results of one examination. He mentioned parent -teacher in- terviews, which is a new vogue, replacing report cards. This is reported by the schools using this system to be satisfactory.

ALWAYS A GENUINE SALE CANADIAN SUPPLIES AMPLE TO REPLACE CITRUS LOSSES The Florida cold snap which recently took a .heavy toll of fruit and vegetable crops., has u derlined the importance of C nadian-grown produce. hough the "`deep freeze" in the southern state is expect- ed to result in a shortage of citrus- fruits in Canadian stores for the next few months, this is no cause for alarm. Officials of the Production and Marketing Branch, Canada Department of Agriculture, point out that a wide variety of Canadian fresh, canned and frozen fruits and vegetables is available to meet consumers' needs. This produce will ,also help consumers avoid higher prices which might result from short supply of imported fresh and processed fruit. At December 1, there were 9,000,000 bushels of fresh ap- ples in Canadian storage, com- pared with 8,000,000 a year earlier. In addition, there were more than one million gallons of apple juice in storage at the start of the current packing season. This is an increase of 250,000 gallons from the pre- vious year. Nearly all apple juice produced in Canada is now fortified with vitamin C. Production of tomato juice— another excellent source ,-of vitamin C—set a record this year and ample supplies are assured for the winter months. Although there is no need for concern over a shortage of cit- rus fruits, . the Florida "freeze" has helped to ,turn the spotlight on the buying habits of Cana- dians who, in recent years, have purchased increasing quantities of imported fruits and vege- tables. Though apples are grown from coast to coast here and there is no citrus production, Canadian per capita consump- tion of apples is one of the lowest in the world, and our consumption of citrus fruit is one of the highest. In 1960, Canadian per capita consumption of citrus fruit was About 66 pounds. This was di- vided almost equally between fresh fruit and juice. At the same time, however, per capita apple consumption was only 27 pounds, of which eight pounds was consumed as juice. Europeans are away ahead of Canadians as apple eaters and per capita consumption there range from 41 pounds in France to 110 pounds in Swit- zerland. Low domestic consutiiption has made Canadian producers dependent on export markets in disposing of their crops. However, officials point out, if Canadians ate apples at the same rate as they do citrus fruit it would take care of the average Canadian crop. And, they add, if citizens ate an "ap- ple a day", production would have to be doubled to meet the demand. "So what if your husband snores," said the neighbor. "Lots of husbands do." "Yes," sighed the baggy -eyed wife, "but my George is a ven- triloquist and snores on both sides of me at once." BRUCEFIELD Mr. and Mrs. Calvin Horton left last week for the West, where they will visit friends and relatives. , Mr. and Mrs. Stewart Broad - foot and Mr. and Mrs. John Aik- enhead spent the weekend in London. Mr. and Mrs. A. D. Smith, Bluevale, and Mr. and Mrs. Geo. Griffith visited with relatives in the village on Sunday. We extend bur sympathy to Mrs. George Baird and family in the passing of Mr. Baird on Sunday. Bsucefield and community ladies held a shower in the school room of the church re- cently. Owing to the stormy night the attendance -was not at large as usual, but many ladies sent their good wishes to Mrs. Provost, formerly Jean Broad - foot. Jean received many beau- tiful gifts, including silver, corning ware, and electrical ap- pliances. Mrs. W. Haugh was hostess for the evening. Miss Georgine McCartney gave piano. solos; Mrs. W. Broadfoot con- ducted contests and gave a reading. All sang "For She' is a Jolly Good Fellow." A delic- ious lunch was. served. The fifth day of the week takes its name from Thor, Norse god of thunder, says the En- cycloperia Americana. In the ancient Roman week, the fifth day was that of the god Jupiter, another. wielder of thunderbolts. There are two Holy Thursdays, the first just before Easter; the second, 40 days after it.
