It is said .that in the
days when knighhood was
in flower, in order for a
maiden to obtain a
beautiful complexion she
should arise on the first of
May or May Day and
bathe her face in morning
dew. That assuredly was
never written for the
fairer sex of Huron
County since it would be a
frosty bathe and not a
dewy one.
-I-
You
You might never
realize it to look at the
print in your paper this
week but it is rather
special - in fact a first for
Clinton and the News -
Record.
Your editorial crew,
Jim and Shelley,
mastered the fine art of
typesetting on the two
new mini disc terminals
now installed in the of-
' fice. In a jargon com-
pletely oriented to the
computor age - they in
turn blessed and cursed
the new machines. But
it's all for more efficiency
- just wait and see.

The Clinton Hor-
ticultural Society are
having a plant auction
this Friday evening in the
Town Hall - please see the
advertisement in the
coming events of this
issue. Mr. John Cook, son
of Clinton's late Charlie
Cook, has donated his
father's collection of
African Violets also his
famous dahlia bulbs, to
be auctioneered for the
Society. Richard Lobb,
Clinton auctioneer, has
donated his services, and
it should be a most worth-
while evening for anyone
wishing to attend.

Socializing over a piece
of pie and a cup of coffee
or tea has become an
annual affair at St.
Andrew's Presbyterian
Church, Clinton, spon-
sored by the Madeleine
Lane Auxiliary. This
year's well -attended Pie
Social was held Tuesday
evening in the church
hall. The May pole,
symbolic of the occasion
was the creative effort of
Mrs. Alice Fee and her
Sunday School helpers.
Judging by the popularity
of the bake table there
are plenty of Clintonians
who firmly believe that
"calories don't count".
This happy foursome were the winners in the
primary speaking contest at St. Joesph's Separate
school recently. The winners included, front row,
left to right, Laura McKenzie, Grade 2, Out to Play;
Keith Ducharme, Grade 1, A Dog. Back row, John
Hoskins, Grade 1, The Frogs; Ron Cook, Grade 2,

$17,732 for nurses with
five years service.
The contract specifies
wages for both public
health nurses and
registered nurses
working for the county.
Under the new
agreement registered
nurses now start at
$14,274 and have a
maximum of $17,020 after
five years.

Bachelor of Science
degree also receive an
extra $442 a year.

Kippen ladies
hold shower
By Rena Caldwell
Mrs. Harold Caldwell
and Mrs. Jack Bell
honoured Chris
McGregor with a
miscellaneous shower at
the home of Mrs. Cald-
well on Tuesday, April 24.
Winner of the contest
was Mrs. Robert Bell.
"Missy" Caldwell read
the address and the gifts
were presented by the
younger girls in the area.
Chris responded with
thanks for the gifts and
an invitation to everyone
to see her gifts and to
come to the wedding
reception on May 19.
Lunch was served by the
hostesses and their
assistants.
Personals
Mrs. Robert Gemmell
and her sister Mrs. Lloyd
Haney are visiting
relatives in the British
Isles.
Ken McLellan is on a
business trip to the West.
Mrs. Emerson
Anderson has returned
from University Hospital,
London.,
also had several changes
made to clarify some
clauses. The changes
were in clauses con-
cerning leave of absence,
temporary employees
hired to replace regular
employees on leave and
benefits and wages for
long term and part-time
employees.
Many of the changes
meant nothing except to
clear up possiblecon-
fusion in wording of the
contract. County clerk
Bill Hanly said similar
contracts had come
under fire in arbitration
hearings in other areas of
the province and it was
obvious the contract with
the nurses here had to be
tightened up.
