CREDITON - The regular May meeting of the Crediton Women's Institute was held in the form of a mystery tour and car rally through the townships of Stephen, Hay and Stanley. Organized by Dolores Shapton and Irene Haugh, the rally was a guided and information gathering tour through the countryside and points were awarded for recording various items noticed along the way. The first half of the trip ended at Huron Ridge Acres with a tour through the greenhouses where Carol Steckle explained the opera- tion of their garden centre. From Huron Ridge Acres it was on to Highway 21 and a complicat- ed way of getting a look at Lake Huron including some U- turns. The contingent of three vehicles with 13 ladies ended up at the cot- tage of Earl and Jean Neil at High- lands 2, just north of Grand Bend. The final outcome of the trip was that no one got lost for too long and all were still reasonably good friends when it was all over.

If you have problems, try this: Take the tablet or capsule with about 4 oz. of cold, carbonated water. Danish re- searchers found this method moved the medicine through the esophagus to the stomach faster than plain water. Also, they discovered that a tablespoonful of yogurt was a good alterna- tive to water for elderly patients who have trouble swallowing pills. There are some drugs that ,might have a slightly lesser effect with yo- gurt, but your pharmacist can aGvise you on this. A company in California is hoping to make millions from the sale of a drug called "Detoxahol". It is supposed to reduce the time for the body to eliminate alcohol from as much as eight hours to a few minutes. This drug is still at least 5 years away from getting approval in the U.S. and even longer in Canada. Our skin ages in two ways. One is "chronological aging" which is an in- herited tendency to age. The other is "photoaging" or solar -induced ag- ing resulting from sun damage. You can't do much about the first type but using sunscreens can certainly slow down the second. Proper use of sunscreens is certainly part of a wellness -oriented program for a healthy lifestyle.
