She introduced guest speaker, Miss Ellen Whitmore of Ailsa Craig, who works in London as a Custom’s Inspector and is also on the Auxiliary Police Force for the City of London.

Mrs. Jim Cunningham gave a reading on Citizenship also spoke on topical subjects on World Affairs and a reading “Our Times”. Ruth Hill read a Valentine poem. Our Times Remember when a hippie meant big in the hips, and a trip involved travel in cars, planes or ships? When a pot was a vessel for cooking things in, and hooked was what grand­ mother’s rug may have been? When fix was a verb that meant mend or repair and be-in meant simply existing somewhere? When neat meant well organized, tidy and clean, and grass was aground cover normally,'green. When lights not people were switched on and off, and the pill might have been what you took for a cough. When groovy meant furrowed with channel", and hollow, and birds were winged creatures like robins and swallows. When fuzz was a sub­ stance, fluffy like lint! and bread came from the bakeries, not from the mint. When roll meant a bun and rock was a stone, and hang­ up was something you did with the phone. When chicken meant poultry and bag meant a sack and junk trashy NURSERY PLAYMATES — Playing with toys at the Stephen Neighbourhood Nursery at J.A.D. McCurdy School are Sarah Irwin, Leslie Pfaff and Aaron Caissie. T-A photo castoffs and old bric-a-brac. When cat was a feline, a kitten grown up and tea was a liquid you drjmk from a cup. When swinger was someone who swings in a swing and pad was a sort of a cushiony thing. When way out meant distance and far-away and a man couldn’t sue you for calling him gay. Words once so sensible, sober and serious are making the freak scene like psyche-delirious. It’s groovy, man, groovy but English it’s not — Me thinks that the language has gone to pot. Richard Mulholland and Sarah of Mitchell dropped in with a surprise birthday dinner for Mr. & Mrs. Wilfred Cunningham on Sunday. Wilfred reaches his 89th birthday, February 26.
