From our kitchen to yours By T.A. ghost writer Heavenly Devine July, originally @uinfilis, was the fifth month in the Roman calendar. When Ju- lius Caesar readjusted the calendar he gave it 31 days, and the Roman Sen- ate renamed it Julius in honour of him. Many countries celebrate their special day in July. Independence Day in the United States is July 4. Bastille Day in France is July 14. There are celebrations in the Philippines on July 4, in Venezuela, July 5, in Argentina. July 9, in Bel- gium. July 21, in Peru. July 28, and of course July 1 herein Canada is celebrated as Canada Day. In 1867, the Fathers of Confederation wanted to call their new country the Kingdom of Canada, however, the British Parliament, anxious not to upset the United States insisted on a different title. From Psalm 72, verse 8, "He shall have domin- ion also from sea to sea, and from the river unto the ends of the earth", came the term Dominion, to add stateliness to the new federation. Under the new Constitution Act of 1982, Can- ada is still known officially as the Dominion of Canada. While I was growing up. July 1 was always known as Do- minion Day. In 1982, the nine was officially changed to Can- ada Day. However, the name does not matter. July 1 is a day to reflect upon all that Canada mews to us, how it has changed and grown since its inception and to consider it on a scope larger than most petty politics of today would allow. Celebrate.Canada: take in some or all of the events in Exeter, enjoy the fireworks get together with friends, or family. Make the day special. Clasen Treats tasty tidbits to enjoy anytime.

Summer children's programs GODERICH - Summer is upon us again, and the Huron County Li- brary has prepared several chil- dren's programs to keep the chil- dren busy reading this summer.

Two stu- dents have been chosen to organize and implement several of these pro- grams at all the branches through- out Huron County.
