Did anypne notice a strange odor in the air around S'eaforth
Saturday morning? Expositor reader Edith Baket phoned to 'say
that a smell, not unlike weed spray in the summer time, was in
the art outside her home, on Highway 8 -between Clinton and
Seaforth about 9:30 a.m. ,,Later that morning she noticed the
same smell in Seaforth. Does anyone know the cause?
The Expositor is well' informe,d about events in Jamaica these
days, and not bedause anyone here has taken a trip there;
Seaforth dentist Dr. ,Charles Toll. is . in the southern~ country
spending another stint as a dentist, for Operation -
Friendship. He as sent several copies of Jamaican riewspapers to
the Expositor and they're available for any readers who want to ,
take a pretend trip to the sunny south.
Ken Oldacre, brotight &nether newspaper from abroad into the
Expositor °Mee not long ago. This "One is from England, Mr.
',Oldacre's home country and is a special storm edition of the.
Herne Bay Press. The small tabloid is packed with excellent
photos of the damage wreaked by a windstorm that hit this
corner of -England, ironically at the same time as Seaforth
suffered,* mid January snow storm.

carving -project that's been
percolating in her .brain ; for
perhaps 20 years. ,
It's a series of carvings. 78 tiny '
figures who altogether make up
,the parts of the 12 days of
Christmas of the "Partridge in 'a
-• Pear Th-ee" song. , Mounted
together on a wooden base in,
relief against a cloth background, •
the figures, ladies _dancing,
. pipers piping, swans a swimming,.
• etc., form the shape of a
Christmas. tree.
"I started at the t2's". 'Mrs.
.McLecrd says "or I would have
given 'up." Last January she
carved the 12 lords a leaping and
the final figures,hot the partridge
in his pear tree, but the five gold
,• rings finished the project not
quite..feie,Christmas but, for1,New
Years.
The idea for the 12 days carving
Came from a . ChriStinas tree at
Alma College in St.ThomaS that,
Mrs. M cLeod heard about malty
years ago. The figures are carved
from cedar and Mrs. McLeed's
son Donald, also a• carver, kept.
her supplied with the blocks to
work with.
',:Grain in wood' has always
fascinated me". -says Mary;

Mrs. M (-Lead, who: didn't
carve much when she was
away from Seaforth for 12 years,
teaching in Burlington, had other
