Pyrn, Representative EXETER Tel: 235-0355 MANU TI'AqUogfiS LIFE 11.67 • A, • ' Definitely. This is the best time to buy life insurance. At the beginning of your career when the premiums are lower. When you buy life insurance you create an estate of your own the moment you sign. Life. insurance is also a sound in- vestment, Thanks to compound interest, the cash value will keep increasing through the years giving you a "nest egg" for unforeseen e me r ge ncies. Life insurance can also be used as collateral. For loans or business deals later. Talk to the Man from Manufacturers. He'll discuss your particular situation with you and draw up your personal life insurance program. One with options so that up to age 40 you can add to it at intervals, including when you marry and when your children are horn. You can make these additional pur- chases regardless of your health condition. Twenty isn't too young to start your life insurance program. Some men even begin at 1$. You ha\ e to start early when you're aiming for financial success. Times-Advocatft, May 1967 Pogo 7 Hold church confirmotion Clandeboye girls thrilled by Expo casion was the departure Satur- day of Mr, & Mrs. Boggs and family for Germany for three years. Mrs. Cora McLean, St. Peters- burg, Florida, is visiting her niece, Mrs. Almer Hendrie. Mr. & Mrs. J. Bill and Jeffrey, London, visited Mr. & Mrs. David Kestle. Other visitors were Mr. MT S. Bert Jackson, Stratford, Mr. & Mrs. McLaughlin, Vic- toria, B.C. Mee, Arthur Hodgins and Mrs. Arnold Lewis attended the ser- vice at Whalen United Church, Sunday morning. Mrs. Hodgins was a former member there. Now the church is to be closed. Miss Betty Ann Lewis and Miss Daisy Cobleigh spent the weekend with Mr. & Mrs. Harold Town- send and family, London town- ship. I was also quite surprised at how friendly all the hostesses Were. They were all bilingual and most spoke other languages as well. Many souvenirs are quite expensive but there are lovely things in almost every boutique that can be obtained for a reason- able price, I went to Expo prepared to pay very high prices for meals but I was pleasantly surprised. Meals range anywhere inpricefrom 50q to $15 per person— it depends Where and what you eat. The best thing to do on reach- ing the Expo site is to hop the nearest Expo express which Is free and take a tour of the is- lands. This way you can't get lost and you can get an idea where most of the pavilions are situated. All in all, it was an exhaust- ing but wonderful trip and our entire school highly recommends Expo to each and every one of you.

MY VISIT TO EXPO By NANCY DARLING 11 A In my opinion no Canadian should miss seeing Expo '67 in Montreal. It is simply fantastic and I highly recommend it to people of all ages, There is something for every one at Expo, Two of the pavilions that stood out most in my mind were the Bell Telephone pavilion and the Labyrinth, The movie in the Bell Telephone pavilion is almost indescribable the screen is circular and the movie shown took us on a trip across Canada from West to East. The way in which it has been filmed can actually give a person the sensation of flying. As one of Walt Disney's greatest works it is certainly a fitting memorial to him, The Labyrinth was one of the theme pavilions emphasizing Man and His World. In it there was a series of movies based on Man and himself. They attempted to make one delve into the subcon- scious of man and certainly suc- ceeded very well. The idea of the building was taken from a myth about the minotaur, the huge monster in the center of the labyrinth. Other very good pavilions were that of the State of Maine, Prov- ince of Quebec, Indians of Can- ada, Ontario pavilion (film), In- dia, The Kaleidoscope and Cana- dian pacific Cominco (film on youth.) One of the other theme pavil- ions, Man and His Health, had a large operating room called the Meditheatre, Here a film was shown showing an operation on a young boy's heart, a brain operation and an operation in which a thalidomide baby receiv- ed an artificial arm. All in all, it wasvery interest- ing as they spared no details in the film. This was quite evident by all the people who were faint- ing or being taken outside by officials of the meditheatre. However, not all the pavilions were so interesting. I for one was disappointed in the USSR, the US and Canada pavilion. The pay- ilion of France was also a little disappointing. I think, on the whole that the small pavilions were much better than the most of the larger ones.

Our accommodation was arranged through the Elm- vale Expeditions Ltd. so we were situated at Beloeil, Quebec, which is about a 40 minute ride from the Expo grounds. Our sleeping quarters were called chalets, which were long buildings, similar to army bar- racks, They were equipped with bunk beds, with foam mattresses, We had to supply our own sleep- ing bag. We ate in a large dining hall on picnic tables and each team of 25 students had their own refrigerator, stove and sink, Each day, the refrigerator w as cleaned out and the day's rations were put in. Everyone had to help with the preparation of the meals. I wasn't too fond of the food but I guess I was just spoiled at home. I found the food prices at Expo cheaper than I expected. We celebrated a friend's birthday by buying a delicious, full-course steak dinner for $2.00, a gener- ous slice of pizza for 30c.. Coffee and hot chocolate machines were plentiful and we visited them often to help us keep warm, After the first day we h ad learned a few tricks. One was that we had to forget our manners especially when boarding the Ex- po Express and barged in like the rest. We had five days to view as much of Expo as we could. With that time I viewed 67 pavilions plus La Ronde. Of all those pav- ilions* I especially enjoyed Great Britain and the Health Pavilion so I toured them twice. I also en- joyed the Labryinth, Habitat, Telephone Pavilion, Austr alia with its talking chairs. The Chate- laine Mode Home and the Pulp and Paper Pavilion.
