She worked hard as a dressmaker, but she hardly earned enough to feed her- self. One day an old woman asked her to make a christening dress. Melinda had just one bolt of cloth left -- white satin. She was saving it to make herself a wedding dress some day. But she cut off a piece and made a beautiful little dress. "I can't pay," said the woman, "but I brought you some herb tea." Then she slipped, and spilled the tea all over the bolt of white satin. Now it was a muddy brown. Melinda was crying when a woman came in to ask for a dress. "I'll take that cloth," she said. Melinda blinked. The cloth was a shimmering rainbow. She cut out a dress for the woman -- and it sewed itself together like magic. The woman loved the dress. Soon more women came. Melinda made more -dressesi But there was always more cloth on the bolt. Then the princess came to have a dress made. Her handsome brother came with her. Melinda made the dress, but it didn't fit. The princess had to come back again, and again. Each time the prince came with her. Then one morning, while Melinda was waiting for them, she pulled out a length of cloth from the bolt and held it up against herself in front of the mirror. Suddenly it made a beautiful dress -- but there was no cloth left on the magic bolt. Then there was a knock on the door. When the prince saw Melinda standing there in her magic gewn, he knew that he had found his bride. All world rights Services, 1979. Copyright AVS Technical reserved.

BY JABEZ RANDS (As pert of Clinton's upcoming Centennial celebrations next year, the late Jabez Rands of Clinton had been writing a weekly column on the history of the town, He had written several, columns ahead before his death.) Do' you remember when and where the early post Offices were in Clinton? The first Post Office we seem to hear about was not ac- tually in Clinton but was a short distance out on the Huron Road towards Holmesville in the home of Dr, Coles. The first Post Office to actually be located in Clinton about 1855 that we know about, was in a small house that would have been incated on the present lawn in front of Wesley-Willis United Church, between King and Victoria Streets. The house at one time belonged to John Elliott, who owned the large livery stable that sat to the south of it. The stable later became a service station that was operated by the late Roy Mann. In the 1860s, the Post Office was located in the block bet- ween King and Isaac Streets and belonged to J,H. Combe, the druggist, Thomas Fair was the first postmaster, In the late 1860s, Mr. Fair had a new Frame building con- structed for the Post Office on a spot now located by Lee's Clothing on Victoria Street. The building was used as a post office until 1903 when the Federal Government built the red brick one in front of Wesley-Willis Church, The red brick building was torn down in 1967 when the Post Office moved to their new building on King S reet, Business and Professional Directory Goderich Twp.
