Clinton News-Record, 1977-05-26, Page 7Holmesville 11 1-H Our skit was in two acts, the first involving all the club members passing word on about an all-night BYOB party in Bedland. For each of the members HYOB meant something different. "Bring your own - bag (sleeping) bed, bear, book, bar (chocolate) and ball. All of this served to lead up to the second act and the bedtime story which was a poem telling of who was in the club and what was done at the meetings. It ended of course at Achievement Day with‘lall members falling asleep at the all-night party. The poem read as follows: "Six in Bedland" One upon a time in a faraway land A group of girls - two Heykoops and four named Brand, Got together for the 4-H spring project To see how much knowledge they could collect. First the leaders learned all that they needed to know And then the White club was just rarin' to go. Clothes for leisure was the discussion at stake, and soon all members knew what they wanted to make From a duster, a long robe, to a nightgown with lace trim - Crispy tailored pyjamas, a jumpsuit, the choice was not at all grim A beach coverup, caftan, a co-ordinated set of top and pants The club members were so happy that they started to dance. They learned the pattern they chose would have to suit their type And the style they chose would have to be just right. The fabric would have to be suited to the style The right trims and notions would make it go a mile The garment had to be soft and comfortable for sure And a lot of wear, it would have to endure. There was still a lot to learn yet But for now the club mem- bers were all set They could buy their pattern, fabric, trims and notions But there was something more to teach before setting the machines in motion Checking, altering, cutting and marking they had to -know, After learning this, then they' could start to sew. There were also many sewing techniques tglearn to do Staystitching, gathers and darts to name only a few. There were the seams,. though many kinds, not one • 0, Church News Morning prayer was held in St. James Church Middleton at 11:45 a.nk,,,,Pon Middleton received the offering and Rev. Wm.

Then facings and un- r+erstitching they learned. But for more knowledge the club members still yearned. Casings - self and applied, my goodness so many things, Even a technique of applying drawstrings. . Sewing in the sleeves so that they would fit; With the different seams, and using fabric of woven or knit. The hems - machine on woven, knit and what not, Even the easy -to-do slipstitch hem was taught. These girls learned a lot, these club members six After coming this far there were still a few more tricks. They learned about bindings, fringe and braid, By now they just about had it made. Sewing on buttons with a natural shank, or a shank of thread, Some learned to do it right, others knew it before they said. Applying lace was the last. topic to be known, The girls learned two ways in wh,ich it could be sewn. Either by direct or enclosed application they say, And at the hem of woven br knits, it is done yet a different way They learned to apply lace to a woven or knit material by hand And after learning this the members felt just grand. They put all this great knowledge into their gar- ments, Their new clothes for leisure brought on some great comments. They knew they could now sleep and lounge anywhere, So long as they were com- fortable they did not care For loungewear they learned, is very versatile Sewn with care it looks great, no matter what the style. And so the girls decided to celebrate They held a BYOB party on this very date They wore their leisurewear and all were admired, But by the end of the night they were all very tired And so the six fell asleep, two Heykoops and four named Brand Once upon a time in faraway Bedl-and. -by Diana Brand Our six club members are: leader, Mary Brand; Assistant leader, Diana Brand; Jackie Brand; Marie Brand; Irene Heykoop and Nancy Heykoop, all of RR 3 Clinton. 13y Mary Chessell A community shower was held recently for Mary Lou McKinley in the Sunday School room of Goshen Church.

The Police apprehended a suspect and I was asked to conte and identify my belongings. I was told that my equipment couldn't be released until after the trial as it was needed for evidence. I still haven't heard from the Police and am wondering how long I may have to wait. This is really your fault because you were notified by registered mail to come and get your stereo _and tapes. Since no one was home you were left a notice informing you that a registered letter awaited you at the Post Office. Subsequently since, another notice was delivered but still you failed to call!

She became very flustered, hut the man in the car beside her, parked his car and came hack to assist. He recruited it few people from the street and they were able to push her car off the Main street and to diagnose the problem as, "being out of gas". This gentleman ob- tained a can of gas from a nearby service station and soon my sister was on her way home again, -thanks to a perfect stranger. Ball & Mutch LTD.
