Clinton News-Record, 1979-03-15, Page 20 fZi WISHES A HA • PAGE 2 —CLINTON NEWS -RECORD, THURSDAY,1VMA tCH,15 979 "It's "top of the morning" time again and anywhere from a month or so before that "great, green date" of March 17 the lilting Irish music starts. It must be a disc jockey's hey day, as there seems to be a never ending repertoire of the songs of the isle that all Irishmen swear the angels dropped from out of heaven, but the rest of us were led to believe descended from St. Patrick and his snakes. Be it as it may, their music is lovely. As saints days go, March 17th is closely followed in popularity by the songs of Scotland to celebrate their patron saint, St. Andrew on November 30. Scottish songs, by tradition, seem more vibrating perhaps bespeaking the rugged grandeur of the Caledonian mountains To Residents in the Town of Clinton -Au. Garbage to be at the curb by 8 a.m. and the fierce pride of the dour Scot. Left considerably in the rear of the saints days are those of England and Wales, and there are precious few who even know their dates. St. George of England is 'celebrated on April 23 while St. David's day has just passed by on March 1. English music doesn't have too much national significance, although the songs most often associated with old Blighty are the immortal ones born of two world wars. Welsh music is beautiful" and, probably, the most pure of the four, as are the voices of Welsh singers. Something clean and lovely had to come out of the black of the coal pits and Welsh music is all of that. No one could but be stirred to hear the strains of. "Land of My Fathers." But anyway, before Clancy lowers the boom, let's leave the music theme, but not without wishing the Irish a great, green March 17. +++ Miss Shelley Burgess, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Burgess of Clinton left last Thur- sday, March 8 for Pasadena, California where she has accepted a fZif=®E2EI®®e ® To • Colleen McAdam zi siiii Kelly Lynn Renner S Robbie Crich E • Jason McAsh Jeffrey Oestreicher Tammy Elliott la Robbie MacAulay ® Christine Johnston E Jared Petteplace a Una Doherty ® Cleo Hubert ® Troy Falconer Clinton ® To Join - just come into the News -Record office, ®Albert St. Clinton or phone 482-3443 and have your 0 name entered in the Birthday Book and get R E E L button.

The Friendship Guild of St. Paul's Anglican Church will have lost one such member in the passing of Dorothy Crozier. Not only this group, but also the town at large has lost a good friend. The con- dolences of the com- munity go out to all members of her family. Up a tree without an axe? Or a new species of monkey sighted in Clinton? Neither. It's Steve Gibbings of the Clinton PUC attaching ropes to a tree that the PUC is trimming as part of the town's tree renovation scheme, always carried out in late winter. The ropes are to direct the tree away from any buildings. (photo by Steve Cooke) Rennaissance leader coming Rev.

This Saturday, March 17, the Clinton Library is hosting a children's film program. A free at- traction beginning at 2 pm in the Clinton Town Hall, this program features one and one-half hours of fine en- tertainment for children of all ages. Our first film entitled Mowglis Brothers based on Rudyard Kipling's Funeral well attended The number of citizens from all walks of Clinton life and , visitors from farther afield who were present at the funeral services for the late Dorothy Bartliff Crozier, attested to the high esteem in which this lady was held. The service in St. Paul's Anglican Church, Clinton on Tuesday af- ternoon March 13, 1979 was conducted by the rector, the Rev. James ,PART-TIME ',STUDIES AT Broadfoot assisted by Padre George Youmatoff. Mrs. Crozier was born and spent her life in Clinton and, until a few years ago, was associated with her three • brothers in the bakery and restaurant business bearing the Bartliff name. Her funeral was from the church for which she had worked with undiminished zeal. book The Jungle Book, tells the story of a human baby who is adopted by wolves, from whom he learns about love, justice, and the jungle code of loyalty. Paddington, that loveable bear from Britain comes to life in our next feature entitled More of Paddington.

Recently .Cindy Cook passed the Novice II badge. Congratulations everyone! March 31 will mark the last day of skating. Although the skating season for the Clinton club will finish soon our budding enthusiasts will be able to join a spring skating school either at Vanastra, managed by Mr. and Mrs. Fred Moore, or at Stratford, managed by Mr. and Mrs. Guy Gordon. Spring and fall schools are usually of four weeks duration of concentrated skating in a disciplined situation. Improvement in skating skills may often be doubled compared with what can be ac-\ complished in ten. months of'one or two - three hour sessions a week during the winter. It is because of the extra skating in spring, fall or two month sum- mer schools that our intermediate and senior students have attained higher levels of training than ever before in Clinton. Certainly if a child shows any talent and desires to try the com- petitive stream or become an advanced test skater, he or she should take advantage of the extra schools. We couldn't have it any hardier either. - by Audrey Middleton.
