' o .n's Column BY MARY GUEST All this week,, the Packing Association of `Canada has been holding an exposition in Torontt ; *covering the pack= aging , of everything from perfume bottles to industrial equipment. Perhaps, while they are about it, they could improve the packaging or two staple items of everyday living powdered detergents and breakfast cereals. It is true that within recent months detergentshave appeared on grocery - shelves with -: fairly distinctive wrap- pings, but , .hay, you ever seen directions for their use printed on theie wrappings? I am sure that many women must wonder, as Ido, just how MUCH detergent should be used for any given task. Should you •use more detergent per gallon of water for dishwashing than for the family wash, or . less? Should the water -be covered with mountains of suds (which chemists tell FIs are actually useless and are. merely - added to the product to keep the housewife happy) or should there hardly be any bubbles on the water at all? One manufacturer states that you should use "just enough" of his product to "maintain good suds". I wonder what he means by "good suds"? One thrifty Goderich woman took" the trouble to test her favorite detergent, using different measures, until she had arrived at the quantities she considered most suitable. Now she keeps her detergent in a large jar with a measuring scoop an top. Of course, nobody needs to be told how much break- fast cereal to use, but how to speed up our shopping if the various brands of cereal wore different and distinctive wrappings! The boxes of corn flakes, bran flakes, wheat flakes and puffed cereals are so much alike that they might all contain the same product. Stand by the breakfast foods section in your store and you have to read the wording on every box to find the one you want. One day, as I stood in a Goderich store, frantically read- ing across the roVvs of boxes, a little girl came up to me and said, "Please do any of these boxes have giveaways in them?" Not only the brand names were indistinguishable, but premiums, teo,' were lost in a welter of words. - Ah well, enough of carping for one week.,, After a really depressing day, among the cereal boxes, one can always go home and have fun making Christmas gifts, and with Christmas only forty-four days away that can be quite hectic too. I see that the Post Office already has its list of "finaldays" on display. Goderich must surely be the BUSIEST town in Ontario. ,Not a week passes without some special sale or exhibition coming up, and a glance at the back page will usually show a long list of "Coming Events". I find it very exhil- arating to live in a town where there is so much • going on. Auctions, rummage sales, bazaars• and bake sales are breath of life to me, but what do you do when there are no less than THREE events on one clay and Fall at almost -the same time? When that happened recently, I stuck a pin in the paper and so went to the bazaar, missing out on an auction sale and a rumamge sale. On the Square, too, there are exciting things happen- ing! New shops opening and old shops putting on new faces. Now that so many trees have been taken away, even the Park itself is beginning to look neater and prettier. It would be a pity,'`though, to spoil it with a clutter of garish and ugly neon signs. . It is such a gay little Square .......whenever I turn in to it I hope to see a children's carousel under the trees. But now fancy is getting the better of me. Looking for' something to read the other day, I dis- covered shelves of books quite reasonably priced in the Opportunity Shop (referred to • in my family at the "Op Shop"). Couldn't find any old cookery books, though. Could it be that women never discard cookery books? No matter where''you travel, you almost never find second hand cook books for` sale. I have a collection of 12 cookery books on my kitchen shelf and I wouldn't part with one sof theal. A good way to save wear and tear on cookery book, by the way, is to copy favorite recipes on to a file card. Then, if ,you SHOULD spill anything on to the recipe, it is a simple matter to replace the card. Cleaning up a cookery book, when a bottle of cooking oil' poured across it, is an almost impossible job. Noticed an article tri a Toronto -paper the other day in in which the writer complained about, the traffic tangles in the city. Said he, "There is hardly a town or, village in this province in which a man cannot get to' and from his job in ten minutes, even on foot. He can lunch at home every day-" Perhaps that is one reason why Goderich is such a happy town... no rushing about in heavy traffic and oh, greedy men _ . lunch at home every day! See you next week. JEFFERY—WARNOCK In an all white floral setting at Dundas Street Centre - United Church, London, Saturday after- noon, marriage vows were exchan- ged by Norma Jean Warnock and Harold John Jeffery. The Rev. H. Donald Joyce officiated: The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Norman Warnock, Lon- don, formerly of Goderich, and the groom is the son of Mr, and Mrs. John Jeffery, Goderich. Dr. F.

Laithwaite Observe Their Diamond Wedding Anniversary A diamond anniversary dinner was held at the Laithwaite home, Huron Road, on Sunday in honor of Mr. and Mrs. George Laithwaite. All afternoon and evening many friends, both from a distance and nearby, visited the popular couple. They were married November 6, 1895, at the bride's home, Mait- land Concession, Goderich Town- ship by Rev. Mr. Parker. Atten- dants were the late Ed Jenkins and sister of the groom, Mrs. Clar- ice Salkeld of Goderich. Mr. Laithwaite was born May 24, 1871," a son of the late J. C.

Williams, where the bride of today, Mary Travis Williams, was -born November. 7, 1875. There were nine in this pioneer family, seven of whom enjoy good health today. After their wedding they took up residence on lot 102, Maitland Concession, Goderich Township, where they are still living. They had a family of seven children of whom are living, ,Arnold J., of etroit, Thelma (Livingston) and olo.res of Windsor, William G., of Stratford, and Clayton, Who .carries' on the business started sixty years ago. They have nine grandchildren and 'three great-grandchildren. Mr. Laithwaite took a great in- terest, as his father did, in civic and political affairs. He was an intensive fruit farmer, a Jersey breeder, 'horticulturist. and creative artist. Thousands have been en- tertained at his place b his un- ique talents and versatile hobbies. Mr. Laithwaite has been president of the Huron County Fruit 'Grow- ers, Goderich Horticultural Society, Gun Club, ea director of the Gode- rich Agricultural Society and Jer- sey Breeders' Association, as. well as a pioneer promoter of refores- tation in Ontario. He has been in- terested in fraternal organizations. Mr. Laithwaite is a member of 5+t. George's Anglican Church, Mrs. Laithwaite has been a worthy help -mate in all his varied interests and activities. They can recallmany interesting Changes during their sixty years on the Huron Road. Neighbors have come and gone but the fine qualities of neighborliness has re- mained high with them. Besides receiving congratula- tions from their many friends and relatives, they received telegrams from, Her Majesty, the Queen, George Drew, Leslie Frost, E. Car - cliff and T. Pryde, and a much ap- preciated toke>i from the neigh- bors. Mr. "Laithwaite claims if you don't smoke, or drink alcohol, but eat an apple a day for the digestion and sing a song for the heart any couple can .live to see their 60th wedding anniversary' Among those visiting the Laith- waite home for the occasion were: Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Livingston (Thelma Laithwaite) and their son, Dr. George Livingston, of Windsor; Miss Dolores Laithwaite of the teaching staff of Forster ,Collegiateit Windsor; Mr. and Mrs. William Laithwaite, of.

WHITE .SWANS A lot of strange "birds" drop into Godef*ich from time to time but on Saturday there were three birds whose kind have not been seen here for, many years. They were three white swans and were seen at Maitland Falls on the Maitland River, near Goderich.
