el x and dont worry
about things Martha says
Don't worry ! What am I saying? I'm the
best worrier you'd ever want to know -but
here are a few words someone wiser has
written.
Remember -today is Pie tomorrow you
worried about yesterday. Ask yourself, How
do I know if my worries will come to pass -we
can't all be fatalists -no, we have to get busy,
pick up the pieces, keep the mind strong -the
mental attitude is mighty important. Relax -
the exercises, walks and resting are
important.
Reading helps one relax, helps you to look
at your troubles, I'm sure two months, from
now they will have changed. You stand to-
day, you were standing yesterday. Realize
you' are responsible for your troubles. The -
good Lord is there to help you, believe it. Co-
operate with the inevitable-don.t worry,
don't take yourself so seriously, laugh.
Count your blessings. The load of tomorrow,
added to that of yesterday, and carried to-
day, will make the strongest stagger.
Time solves all. Repeat, God grant me the
serenity to accept the things''I cannot
change, the courage to change the things I

SPEAKING
By Shelley Hartman
Are you single? Tired of your social
life. or, possibly lack of it? You are not
alone. In March of this year, several in-
dividuals who felt the same way you do
. met and formed.a club in answer to their
similar needs.
The Goderich Singles Socialite Club en-
courages alI' single . adults in Goderich
and surrounding area to support and par -
1 ticipate in their recently formed group.
With art executive and social committee
in place, this club is actively organizing
bus Crips, barbecues, bowling and soft-
ball events for their members. With
hopes that their club will also .provide a
network system for singles who will meet
others with similar social interests, it
could be the answer for singles who in the
1 past have found difficulties in their social
lives. •
If you are a single adult and want to
participate with this group, you can at
tend their meetings which are held the
second Wednesday of each month, 7:30
p.m., at the Recreation Office, 166 Mac-
Donald Street. There is a $5 membership
fee and they only require you to par-.
ticipate as much as your time permits.
They would be excited to hear any new
ideas you would have for the club.
So... this might be what you have been
looking for and never knew existed in, our •
area. If you would like more information
- please call: 524-6462, 524-2027, 524-5242.
- I know they would appreciate hearing
from you.

will have participated in the program.
They will have taken 40 hours of formal
management training and worked as
board members of heritage, dance,
theatre, native and multiculttfral
organizations.
"The program has opened the eyes of
young people and shown them how a com-
munity operates and host' many 'taken -for -
granted services' run on the steam of
volunteers. In return, the participants
have learned skills which will give them an
edge in the job market," she said. . •
Young Leaders TomorroW is a joint pro-
ject of the Ontario Association of
Volunteer Bureaux/Centres and the
Ministry of Citizenship and Culture. Young
Leaders Tomorrow is administered by the
provincial association and most programs
are sponsored by local volunteer bureaux.
The program is offered for one year in
each community.
Young Leaders Tomorrow was launched
in early 1986 with two pilot projects, one in
English in Thunder Bay and the other in
French in Ottawa.
The volunteer association expanded
Young Leaders Tomorrow in 1987 with
English programs in Toronto, London, Ot-
tawa, Kingston, Burlington, Mississauga
and Sault Ste. Marie and a French pro-
gram in Sudbury. One bilingual program
was offered in Windsor.
Next year, organizations in Hamilton,
Peterborough, Kitchener -Waterloo,
Niagara Falls, Timmins and the
Kenora/Dryden area will run English pro-
grams. There will be two French pro-
grams in cities which have yet to be
chosen. •

ABOUT
With Martha Il athbur°n
can and the wisdom to know the difference.
So help me -it can help you.
1 have read and re -read a beautiful bit of
poetry titled "A Garland For a Queen" com-
posed for Queen 'Elizabeth's Coronation on
June 3, 1953 written by,D.M.W. Does anyone
know this poet'? I would like to know the
narne, it is odd just to use initials.
Here is something to think about-sugaiL
robs your body of vitamins. Sugar supplies
nothing to the body, causes a need for
phosphorous, magnesi'iiYt' and most of. the#
vitamins. It also causes calcium to leave the
body. It would be better to have a glass of
water than sugar, the empty calorie.
It interferes with vitamin C and minerals.
I read this warning from two doctors, one
from the Cedars of Lebanon Hospital.,
Miami - and the other from the Southern
„California College of Medicine.
Sugars are so easy to consume, :we just
don't think too much about it. My headaches
should have warned me. I blamed it on the
flare-up of arthritis. I hope you have more
"won't power" than I do.
Keep healthy,
Martha
