Refill bowl as the wax cools. Body may be flesh colored wax, or white wax la- ter dipped in a flesh color. When two halves are hardened, remove from bowl, seal togeth- er with hot wax and thread the wick through the hole provided. (Be sure to leave enough wick to go through hat and to hold for dipping). Dip body in hot wax bath then cold water to obtain a glaze. Fasten the body on wall with wooden meat skewer. To make Humpty's trousers, pour a layer of blue wax on a cookie sheet, When wax cools enough to handle, cut a pair of trouser fronts to fit, then a back for trousers. While these are still warm, mould to body. Use straight pins to hold in place until cool. Cut collar from white wax in the same method, red wax for tie. Mould a little hat from some warm blue wax, red for feather. Place hat on Humpty's head and pull wick through the hat. Cut eyes, mouth and nose from hot wax. Use pipe cleaners for arms. PETER RABBIT Mould the body and head separately. Use a sherbet dish, approximately 51" in diameter for the head. Grease dish light- ly with vegetable oil. Pour two of these, placing a wooden meat skewer in center to leave room for the wick. As candle cools, refill container withhot wax. For Peter's body, we used a bowl 5" in diameter and 4" deep, greased lightly with vege- table oil. (You can make Peter any size you like). Pour two of these to form a ball. Stand a wooden meat skewer in the center for the wick. Refill the containers when necessary, as the wax cobls. When wax is hardened, thread wick through the two halves of the body, sealing together with hot wax. Tic a large knot at the bottom of the wick, leaving wick long enough to go through the head and to hold for dipping. Dip the body into a hot wax bath, then cold water bath alternate- ly. Put the head together and thread wick through the two pieces and anchor head secure- ly to body with hot wax. Cover the entire rabbit with whipped wax, (no stearic acid is needed for whipped wax). Build up the arms and feet and tail with extra whipped wax. The ears are cut from double thickness of foil paper. Cut two pair and glue together with pa- per clip between them, leaving one end of paper clip open to fasten ear to the head. liars may be left silver or dipped in liot wax, theta in cold water. While ears are still warm, "flop" then bymoulding with your fingers. Bow tie, carrot and eyes are cut from warm wax and moulded. Whiskers are pieces of straw from a broom dipped in glue, then in glitter. Finished rabbit stands about 12" high. CHICO THE CLOWN AND BEVERLEY BUNNY Egg for head is made in a plastic Easter egg mould ob- tainable at most hobby shops. Base is made in a sherbet dish. Grease moulds with vegetable oil. When two halves of egg are cold, cut a little groove down one half to provide room for the wick. Cut wick the length of the candle, plus enough to hold for dipping. Dip wick in hot wax and place in the groove. Seal second half of egg into place with hot wax. Dip egg in hot wax bath, then plunge into cold water. Repeat these two dips several times Anchor into place on base with hot wax. • Chico's pink or orange hair is whipped wax. Nose is red wax moulded into shape on the head of a straight pin. Paint a little red wax on cheeks. Cut eyes, mouth and tongue from warm wax poured on a cookie sheet and cooled slightly. His collar is a strip of felt,gathered around the neck and decorated with sequins. Beverley Bunny is made in the same way as Chico. How- ever, her eyes and mouth are sequins attached with pins. Her nose and eyebrows are pipe cleaners. Pierce a hole with a hot pin before sticking pipe cleaners into wax. Ears are double thickness foil. Cut two pairs using a paper clip (open- ed) between the layers of pa- per. Glue paper together and use open paper clip prong to attach ears to head. Collar is made from pink felt. Use straws from a corn broom for the whis- kers. Dip straws in glue, then in sparkle dust. Place in wax by making a hole with a hot pin.

For several weeks past, hun- dreds of residents in both the northern and southern areas of the county have been express- ing definite opinions that they would prefer to have any fur- ther addition built at a site other than Clinton, so that the home would be located closer to the areas in which families of the patients reside, The Wingham Advance - Times received nearly 900 written petitions or expressions of this opinion. In Exeter the response was the same, On Wednesday morning the County Council heard letters from organizations in both north and south areas, all urg- ing that another location be se- lected. A deputation was pre- sent at council and several speakers voiced the same ur- gent request. Mayor DeWitt Miller and Barry Wenger of Wingham spoke for the northern area, Elmer Bell, Q, C. , Rev. Lewis, of the South Huron Ministerial Association, Mrs, Brock of the South Huron Senior Citizens' Society and Mr. Rowe- cliffe, a prominent farmer from the Exeter district all ex- pressed the views of the resi- dents of that area. In spite of this preponder- ance of opinion; in spite of re- quests to delay the plan, if nothing more --a vote was taken and it turned out exactly as it did at the January session. Twenty councillors were in favor of building at Clinton and 19 were opposed. Apparently the county will now proceed with its plans to build at Clinton, regardless of what certainly appears to be a very strong majority of tax- payer opinion against such a move. W.I. Will Contrioute To Fellowship Fund Mrs. R. Powell, president, was in charge of the Women's Institute meeting. It was de- cided that members will go to Goderich the afternoon ofJune 28th to entertain the patients at the Ontario Hospital with a program and games. A dona- tion of $5.00 was voted to the Retarded Children's Association, It was suggested that plans be made for a suitable centennial project for the Institute. The International Fellowship Fund, to help students here and in other countries, is appealing for donations and $25.00 was voted to the fund. Roll call was answered with suggestions to make Canada lovelier. The social committee for the next three months will have Mrs. Day and Mrs. Finni- gan as conveners. The officers were returned for the corning year and will be installed at the April meeting by the district president, Mrs. D. Riehl of Goderich, Mrs. R. Powell and Mrs. N. Keating will be the W.I. representatives on the Recreation Committee. Mrs. N. Keating, convener of resolutions, took charge of the program and spoke of reso- lutions, saying people must do what they ought to do; the worla is not helped by what is wished, but what is done. It is never too soon to begin. Duty first is a good resolution. Mrs. D. S. MacNaughton spoke on Canadian poets and poetry. Poets leave so much to the world that should be pre- served to make life rich. We should read poetry ourselves and read it to our children. Community singing and con- tests were enjoyed, the winners being Mrs. C. Shiell and Mrs. Beirnes. Hostesses Mrs. Gal- braith, Mrs. Day, Mrs. H./vie- Laughlin and Mrs. MacTavish served lunch. The Institute travelled to Clinton last Wednesday and provided a program, lunch and presents for about 20 residents of Huronview whose birthdays are in March.

EXPOSURE OF ROOTS KILLS HARDY PLANTS Check the perennial border as soon as the frost is out of the ground, advise horticulturists with the Ontario Department of Agriculture. Plants that have been heaved up by the frost should be pressed back into the soil, Hardy plants can be easi- ly killed through exposure of roots; thus early attention, par- ticularly to young plants set out the previous fall will pre- vent losses. Canadian Fabric Paves The Way for U.S. Success The resounding success of a shirting fabric in Canada for the past eight years is now being echoed in the United States, which is a nice rever- sal of the usual marketing pro- cedure in the two countries. Terylene tricot men's shirts, in white or with a fine stripe of colored nylon, have been the number one "no iron" shirt on the Canadian market since they were introduced in 1956. The fabric is a distinctively Cana- dian development and the first one on the continent to b e granted an unqualified "no iron- ing" approval by the united States Testing Company, Nevertheless, in spite of this knitted fabric's instant ac- ceptance on the Canadian men's wear market, there was no demand for it in 1956 in the U.S. where woven fabrics were traditional in men's shirtings. In 1959, however, Arrow in the U.S., encouraged by the triumph scored by their Cana- dian company with Terylene tricot, launched a similar knit- ted cloth called Dectolene. Success was immediate, and a new fabric trend was underway. Today it is forecast that the production of tricot shirting fab - tics in the U S. in 1965 is ex- pected to be around 30 million yards, at least double that of 1963. The rage is prompted by the fabric's wash and wear characteristics and by the gen- eral interest in knits. Like Canadians, Americans know a good thing when they see it.
