Foreman of the jury was James R. Coultes of Belgrave and the members were Stewart Pale, George T. Thompson, Alex • Nethery, Carl Turnbull, Stew- art Strong and George McBride. In previous years it has been customary for the grand jury to inspect only those buildings directly under the control of the county council, such as the court house, jail and county home. However, this year the presiding judge directed that the jury include the five hospi- tals within the county in its in- spection tour. The people of this area will be interested in the report of the jury on the Wingham and District Hospital which was as follows: "Wingham and District Hos- pital has 104 beds running at capacity. This institution has its first edition Provisional Seal towards its Accreditation Seal. "An isolation section is to be found in this hospital, one of the few in Western Ontario. The older section has been dismantl- ed in the past year, giving a modern hospital of three recent additions. There is provided a Nursing Assistants' Training Centre of 20 students per term which graduates top assistants. "Two hundred and eighty- three persons are employed all year round, providing top care for all patients. "It is our opinion that the five community hospitals in Huron County provide a person- al care to the patients which cannot be found in very large institutions in distant cities. "Also, our recommendations would be that greater effort be put forth in finding ways and means to help finance these lo- cal units. The local boards are to be congratulated for their time and effort devoted to the care of the needy and sick." Mr. and Mrs. Frank David visited Sunday evening with Mrs. Bertha David at Palmer- ston, who returned Tuesday firt?m, a visit with relatives in (19&11.4;d : Mgr The general meeting of the U.C.W. was held in the Sun- day School room Tuesday after- noon, The worship service, on faith, was in charge of Mrs. Roulsron, Mrs. Finlay, Mrs, Geo, Howson and Mrs. Orien, The guest speaker, Mrs. Anne Fallis was introduced by to 80 and the old-old from 80 to 100, There is a change today in the attitude towards age. In the past, age was looked up to but today the main emphasis is on youth. The aged have three needs; Somewhere to live; something to do; and someone to care, Most problems are created by early retirement. It is hard for older people to adjust to not being needed. In our primitive culture everyone was needed, the older people taught the skills to the younger people; but today this has been replaced by education and mechanization. Mrs. Fallis also reported on a survey of the aged taken in Huron County. It is interesting to note that Huron County has a larger population of older peo- ple than any other county in Canada of comparable size. She gave some very interesting statistics on the result of this survey. She said in closing, "Try to understand the process of age- ing, the need to be wanted, and support services for older people in your community." The speaker was thanked by Mrs. D. S. MacNaughton, Mrs. Jack Reavie conducted the business meeting and re- ports were given by delegates to Alma College school for leaders, and the Guelph con- ference for women of the church. The meeting closed with a social half hour. Lyons-King wedding vows Mary Rosanne King and John Lyons exchanged wedding vows on August 19 in Sacred Heart Church, Walkerton. A wedding procession, head- ed by the officiating clergy- man, Father Kauffman, led the bridal party to the front of the church where the bride was giv- en in marriage by her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Owen King of Walkerton and the groom by his parents, Mr. and Mrs. James Lyons of Hamilton. The bridal couple then proceeded to the sanctuary together where their attendants were waiting, Miss Barbara King, sister of the bride and Mr. Vincent Lyons, brother of the groom. The bride, in pink, and the bridesmaid, in aqua wore cock- tail dresses with jewelled col- lars and matching jackets. They carried pink camellias. A reception was held at the home of the bride's parents. Mrs. King wore green and gold brocade and Mrs. Lyons chose aqua lace and chiffon with white accessories. The groom, a graduate of the University of Western On- tario, is teaching at Martin Grove Secondary School in Eto- bicoke.

C.W.I. plans for fall season The September meeting of the Catholic Women's League was held in the parish hall on Monday evening with Mrs. Mi- chael Willie presiding. The meeting opened with prayer.

The meeting closed with prayer, followed by a dessert luncheon.

Mrs. Fri- denburg had been an active member of the group and took the part of Lottie, the maid, in the production of Nellie Mc- Nabb. Mrs. Fridenburg and family will join her husband, Consta- ble Murry Fridenburg in Mt. Forest where he has been since he was transferred from Wing- ham. September is the month to divide peonies Peonies are a perennial, so don't divide them unless they really require it, warn horti- culturists with the Ontario De- partment of Agriculture and Food. They are generally left undisturbed for as long as eight to ten years before dividing and transplanting. One of the signs that they require dividing is decreased number of flowers and crowded stems, If your peonies need divid- ing, early September through until first frost is the time to do it. Here are some hints on what to do, Prepare the ground one to two weeks ahead of when you want to plant. Dig well to a depth of 12 to 14 inches, and work in some fertilizer. When you are digging up a peonie clump, do so carefully. Loosen the soil 18 to 20 inches around the plant and at least 12 inches deep. Gently remove some of the soil around the roots and leave them for a few hours in the sun, to dry. This reduces the brittleness of the roots. Wash the roots free of dirt. Start working them until they show where they easily separate. Cut at the points with a sharp knife. Be sure that each new piece has 3 to 4 healthy buds. Plant the new root divisions 3 to 4 feet apart and 2 to 3 inches deep. Mulching the first win- ter is a good idea. New young London revives fashions 13y Lissa Taylor LONDON--There are three distinct fashion looks in London this season. There is the clas- sic elegance and tweedy know- how of the old guard couturiers which includes such a name as Hartnell the swinging, mini- skirt theme of such designers as Mary Quant and a new, young elegant couture group spearheaded by such designers as Clive and Michael. Of the three groups, the most important for the future and in terms of influence on Canadian fashions will be this third group -- the new, young couturiers. Clive arid Michael are in the forefront of this group and their swinging, easy, yet feminine lovely clothes will be important. Their clothes are young, fresh and alive. The streets of London today abound with mini-skirts. Some of them are so short they are nothing more than tunic tops or long shirts. A large percentage of the really short skirts cover the hipline and that is all. Regardless of length, short skirts are seen everywhere with leg covers of some kind. Leg,, covers are very important this fall whenever the short skirt is worn. Some of the girls wear them with little bloomers which match the dress and they let the bloomers show. The latest fad in youthful at- tire here has been borrowed from the hippies in San Fran- cisco. It is the cult of the flower children. They wear Indian print Rajah coats with bells, beads and flowers inter- twined in their hair and beards. I walked along King's Road and I was very disappointed in what I saw. In Carnaby Street it was a different story again. This was a fun, crazy, tongue-in-cheek carnival. It was rather funny ,with all of us 'square' people looking at 'a manufactured craze. London was filled with tour- ists all there apparently to watch the clothes and the antics of the younger generation. Lon- don is jam-packed. But I don't believe there is a Londoner around. There are thousands of tourists just watching, In London, as in continental fashion centres, ready-to-wear clothes are gaining tremendous importance. It has been men- tioned to me several times dur- ing my trip that haute couture is taking some of its leadership from the ready-to-wear fash- ions. This is absolutely the re- verse of past experience. Mrs, Vernon Reid. Mrs, Fallis is supervisor of health for Huron County Health Unit, located at Goderich. She spoke on the needs and problems of ageing, People are living longer to,- day and retiring earlier, which creates two groups of older peo- ple, the young-old from age 60 Guild meeting GORRIE—The September meeting of St. Stephen's Angli- can Guild met in the Sunday School rooms on Wednesday evening.
