“It is important for you to
be honest with yourself as
well as others”, she advised.
“Be selective in what you
do. Those of you who have
the advantage of Explorer
and C.G.I.T. experience
recognize that you don’t
have to smoke, drink or take
drugs to be a winner”.
Mari Lou is a winner
herself. Having won the title
of the “world’s champion
stunt girl” her name is
recorded in the Hall of
Fame.
“When I began working as
a stunt girl there were only

Tents, furniture, ‘
childrens items, bikes and
buggies filled the blacktop
surface on the west side of
the old Ailsa Craig School -
last Saturday as the Ailsa
Craig Take A Break Group
sponsored a Community „
Outdoor Sale.
“We felt it was a
success”, reported Mary
Verbeek. “Everyong seem
ed to have fun, both selling
and buying”.
Twelve vendors filled the
spaces with sellable items
while bargain hunters took
advantage of the fair
weather and sought out in
teresting items. Many items
were marked down as the
afternoon went on making
the sale even more exciting.
One person was heard to say
“I’m going to wait another
little while for that to come
down and then I’ll buy it”!
It was a first such sale for
the Take A Break Group as a
possible alternate to their
annual Craft Show.
"If the community is in
terested we’ll possibly do it
again next year”, reported
Mrs. Verbeek.

REMEMBER THAT NUMBER. It could save you a lot of
money and time and help your home town.
DID YOU EVER DRIVE 50 to 100 miles or more to take
advantage of a super-duper special? A local $50 item
50 miles away would have to sell for $33 in order for
you to break even.
THE AMERICAN AUTOMOBILE ASSOCIATION
certifies that 16.5 cents is what it costs to drive your car
one mile. So if you've driven 100 miles round trip to pick
up that special, you'll have to add $16 to that purchase.
That sweet buy can suddenly turn quite sour.
AND EACH 100 MILES takes from 6 to 10 gallons of
gasoline which the potential shortage of oil-derived fuels
would encourage us to save.
LOCAL MERCHANTS, whether they sell groceries,
clothing, drugs, furniture, hardware, appliances or
whatever, feature top line, nationally advertised
products at competitivie prices. These same merchants
support your school, churches and civic groups. They
help us all pay for the improvements that make this
community a better place to live.
SAVE YOURSELF SOME MONEY, help conserve
energy and support your town.
