How often you have head-
aches varies according to what
you do for a living. A statistical
survey shows that farmers suffer
least - only 50 per cent com-
plain of headaches. College stud-
ents top the list with 80 per cent
and businessmen follow closely
behind with 77 per cent.
The regular volunteers, and musicians from Goderich
were unable to attend MondaY's program as a result of
the severe ice storm. The old tYFne Music and dancing
period was replaced by a sing-a-long.
After two months absence the birthday party was once
again on the agenda of events. Those who celebrated
their birthdays in either February or March were hon-
oured at the festivities. A combined group of Clinton and
Blyth Women's Institutes provided the entertainment to
a capacity crowd of both residents and visitors.
Mrs. W. Colclough was in charge of the program
which had a definite Irish mood. A sing song got things
rolling followed by a few Irish solos by Mrs. C. Wittich,
Blyth who was accompanied by Mrs. H. Brown. A quartet
composed of Mrs. A. Groves, Mrs. O. Nelson, Mrs.
M. Batkin and Mrs. M. Gibbings sang a variety of songs
which kept the audience very attentive., George Wilson
played his Jews Harp, an uncommon instrument and was
well rewarded for his efforts with applause. Mrs. Col-
Clough got right into the swing of things by calling a
square dance for four couples decked out in their green
and white St. Patrick's Day clothes. The couples were
Mrs. Trick and Mrs. Tyndall, Mrs. Grigg and Mrs.
Fisher, Mrs. Gibson and Mrs. Richardson, Mrs. Wiltse
and her daughter Mrs. Elliott. Pianist for the square
dance was Mrs. Radfqrt. When the clapping subsided
the quartet of ladies returned to entertain.
Mrs. Cunningham slowed down the pace with an en-
joyable piano solo, Mrs. Nevins was next to display her
talent namely playing the mouth organ. The next port-
ion of the program was a little different but very special
for the residents. Eight young girls, ballet students of
Mrs. Zablocki to entertain and were appreciated im-
mensely. Judi Wise, Rolina Boyce, Sharon Harper, Caro-
lyn Bern and Mary Helen Clynick performed a ballet
"At Last Spring" while Peggy Jones, Mitzi Ray and
Deana Harper did a Polish Folk Dance.
The ladies then presented the 42 residents celebrat-
ing birthdays with a present, and needless to say just
added to an already delightful day. Following a cup of
tea, Miss Agnes Lawson, who celebrated her 96th birth-
day expressed her thanks and that of the residents for
a show well done. •
There were only two groups of people at the special
Irish program of Family Night, those that are Irish and
those that wished they were. The program was arranged
and directed by Mrs. Orville Storey of Seaforth and the
numbers were introduced by John Henderson.
The Henderson Trio, Donna, Darlene and Debbie sang
several Irish songs and the very popular Irish singer
Clarke Johnson of Wingham thrilled the audience with
their favourites and included some Irish jokes. The dance
numbers included Sharri Storey—Irish jigs, Verne Sawyer--
step dancing, junior square dancers were twin sisters
Donna and Doris Lawson, sisters Debbie and Darlene
Taylor, Leslie Lawson, David Townsend, Roy Brown,
Verne Sawyer. Accompanists were Mrs. Henderson, piano
and Nelson Howe, violin. A vote of appreciation was ex-
tended to the group on behalf of the residents by Mrs.
Leybourne.
