Huron Expositor, 2001-12-19, Page 15Correspondents Women share, poems, stories about farming years In November we received the Huron County Ploughing Match Kippen East W.I. tape after telling about our farming years. We enjoyed poems and contests dealing with farming given by Rena Caldwell, Grace Drummond, Marlene Bell and Frances Kinsman. Reports were given about the area convention and rally noting the increase in fees. Our December meeting began with a Christmas dinner on Dec. 14. Wouldn't you know it snowed on our meeting day. Our roll call was a "Highlight or Memory of the Kippen East Women's Institute." A poem, "Dreams," was given by Dorothy Cooper and two different versions of the "Day and Night After Christmas," by Helen MacLean and Phyllis Parsons seemed very appropriate. "Laughter is the Best Medicine, and we had a big dose, watching slides that had been taken in the late 60s and early 70s. Sometimes we couldn't recognize ourselves. Frances Kinsman had a contest and Marlene Bell gave courtesy remarks. We exchanged gifts and closed the meeting with "We Wish You a Merry Christmas." by Mona Alderdice Residents receive manicures, foot soaks and foot massages Fun and Fitness started the week of Monday morning as participants Queensway Nursing Home worked their bodies with mobility exercises and their minds with mental aerobics. Later in the morning co-op student, Jennifer Brideau did some manicures for those wanting to spruce up for Christmas and also read to some residents. Rev. Kevin Rutledge of Emanuel Baptism Church, Exeter, led worship service Tuesday afternoon with Belva Fuss as pianist. Residents are enjoying singing the many Christmas hymns. Lorraine Brock and Marg Cole visited throughout the week to organize euchre games for those residents that like to spend an afternoon in some friendly competition. Seniors dining group drew a good crowd Thursday evening for the turkey dinner with all the trimmings. Friday afternoon found some appreciative individuals out in the sunroom luxuriating in foot soaks followed by a relaxing foot massage with lotion. It is amazing the visiting that occurs as activity staff give this very basic, but personal attention.
