The costumes were colorful and in keep- ing with the era, the musical numbers superb, and Cole Porter's music outstanding. The people from Huronview enjoyed the show immensely. Monday was chicken day on second floor, and the ladies were very pleased with this special meal prepared for them. At noon time on Tuesday, the ladies from ground floor enjoyed a similar dinner. A , variety concert was presented on Wednesday afternoon, by members of the staff. It was a delightful show, and Mary Gibbings introduced the performers on the program.

The square dancers from Clinton who call themselves the Wheelin' Dealers danced some excellent numbers. The. group looked terrific in their colorful costumes. Those taking part in the dance were: Mildred and Ross Merrill, Bill and Mollie Cox, Lois and Ed Wise and Frank Falconer. Steve Cook chose two popular ballads. • Grace Jutzi an accomplished musician, delighted the audience with her piano play- ing of a medley of Irish tunes. Everyone will remember back in the '50s, when the dance called 'The Jitterbug' took the country by storm. Taking everyone back to that period, were Debbie Cuthill and her father Hugh Hodges who performed some fancy steps of that popular dance. One of their numbers was "Rock Around the Clock". It was a great dance. Betty Rodgers in fine voice sang two solos that were Broadway hits some years ago.

Seek past president's input The role of the past president is often the least defined of any executive position. This is a person, who, for a year or more, has.chaired most meetings, worked with all the committees and is most identified with the organization. ' "This experience makes the past presi- dent a valuable resource for incoming ex- ecutive members," says Chuck Jacobs, rural leadership development specialist with the Ontario Ministry of Agriculture and Food's rural organizations and services branch. • As past president, you can share the infor- mation, contacts and resources that you've developed during your term of office. You may also attend events and meetings with the intent of being available for: con- sultation, receptive to questions, and willing to update members on the history behind certain decisions and issues. "At the same time, avoid passing on too many biases to the new executive and let the new president adapt his or her own style to the way meetings are conducted," Jacobs says. Public relations is also an important aspect of the past president's duties. "In the eyes of members, media and the community, the past president continues to represent the group until the new president becomes familiar to them," he says. Some organizations have formal struc- tures to involve past presidents. This may include putting the past president in charge of chairing the constitution committee or nominating committee, sitting in on a critics committee or finance committee or perhaps chairing the annual election of officers. Several groups have president's binders that are passed on each year., "This allows the past president to present in 'written form, an outline of past events. and a list of contacts, to the new president," he said.
