How-to look your best
on v limited budget
With spring comes the urge to
lift yourself out of the winter dol-
drums, shake off the cocoon of
the old look and get rid of the
blahs by splurging on a new
wardrobe. But in this day of infla-
tion, when we are being urged to
restrain our spending, how can a
woman look her best on a mini-
mum of money? It isn't hard.
When buying clothes, as with
an3khing else, the main quality
that is required is good common
sense. Buy fashions that will be
practical, long lakting, easily
adaptable, clothes that are fun to
wear and make you look good.
Because, as the famous ad-
vertisement says, "If you look
gam, you feel good!"
Clothes for spring'76 will be
pretty well anything goes. Don't
make the mistake of thinking
everyone else's style is for you.
Be you — and make your own
fashion rules. Don't let others
dictate what you wear.
Take, for instance, the new
length — which can be anywhere
from at -the -knee to mid-calf. If
you are tall and well-built, you
will look good in the longer
lengths. But if you are average
height and a tiny bit overweight,
forget it! They will only succeed
in making you look dowdy and
will add years to your age. You
never look well-dressed if you
look sloppy! On the other hand,
the minis are out, so if you still
have some in your wardrobe, try
to utilize them somewhere else
unless they have d large hem that
you can lower. Look at your minis
and use your head before you toss
them out. With a little ingenuity,
they could become new dresses
by adding frills or bands and if
that won't work, mdke them even
shorter and wear them as pant
tops. Beware when you start add-
ing flounces, though, they could
make you look like a participant
in a masquerade ball if the dress
is not otherwise designed to take
them.
A practical little must for your
wardrobe this spring is the little
shirt -waist dress. You will get
more mileage out of it than any
other single item in your clothes
closet. In a patterned material or

a plain, they can go anywhere.
Dress them up with jewellery,
flowers or scarves and you're
ready for an evening out. Dress
them down with a minimum of
accessories (especially if they're
satiny material) and you can't
find a more tailored businesslike
dress for the office. And consider
fabric when you buy. Choose a
polyester that can be rolled into a
tiny corner in a suitcase when
you leave for vacation and will
come out looking the same as
when you put it in.
Pantsuits will be big again this
spring — because they are so
comfortable and easy to wear.
Jackets will be the standard blaz-
er, the cuffed shirt jacket or new-
er styles like the Norfolk which
will look great on the smaller
gals. Cuffed pants are out now
and the wide -wide legs have slim-
med a bit. If you wear pantsuits
in the office, keep them tailpred
and businesslike, not as if you
just came from a hockey game.
Pants must look well -pressed and
neat and tops must always cover
the hips. You may be presenting
an image on behalf of your em-
ployer. If you look like a slob,
your public may also think you
work like a slob!
Finally, in these days of infla-
tion, think of every way you can
save money. Don't ever be
ashamed to admit that you
bought something "on sale". The
smart gal hunts until she' finds
bargains and sometimes has to
wait for the right thing to come
along at the price she wants to
pay. If you sew, you have another
ace up your sleeve. It is no dis-
grace to make your own clothes;
it is a giant fther jn your cap.
And you can eke/ your clothes
for quarter the price. The popular
flared skirts can be whipped up in
an evening, pants in an after-
noon. So there is no need for any-
one to look like last year's re-
jects.
Your appearance goes a long
way in making you feel better
and others feel better. And there
is no need to spend a fortune. All
it takes is a little common sense!
Timothy'$ loyalty
theme of service
"The church of Christ could
certainly do with more Timothys
today, said speaker Pastor
Smith as he addressed the con-
gregation of the Wingham Bap-
tist Church on Sunday morning.
Seeking to correct the false
teaching, divisions, immorality
and speaking in tongues preva-
lent among them, Paul. sent the
_ young Timothy to the Corin-
thians.
VVQ�01( Timothy was won to Christ by
Paul. Paul said of Timothy: "He
is faithful to the Lord." He was
obedient. He knew the scriptures.
He gave respect and honor to
THIS EMBLEM IS THE Paul as the servant of the Lord,
remembering that it was through

FRIENDS. and became a great preacher.
At the evening service, Dr. L.
For information call: L. Clarke, representing the
357-3275' Gideons, was the guest speaker.
PhoneHe used John 17:8 as his scripture
text. A former atheist, Dr. Clarke
told of his conversion to Christ
and how the Lord revealed Him-
self to him when he earnestly
sought after God.

Huron -Perth Presbytery discusses closures
Huron -Perth Presbytery met in
Centralia United Church -on Tues-
day, February 24, with Rev. Bert
Daynard, Staffa, presiding.
Considerable concern was ex-
pressed about the closing of hos-
pitals in the area. A committee
was formed to draft letters of
protest to the Premier„ Health
Minister Miller, The NDP and
Liberal leaders, and local MPPs.
Rev. John Oestreicher of
Wesley -Willis United Church in
Clinton, pointed, out that people
are objecting on the grounds of
increased dangers to health, the
economic effects of unemploy-
ment of about one hundred people
and the methods used by the
Health Minister to decide and to
convey the decision.
Rev. John Roberts of Belgrave,
stated that "the communities
have been ignored in the deci-
sions, local people were not con-
sulted — on statistics alone a
vital service can be withdrawn".
Dr. Ross Crosby of St. Marys,
remarked that we must be con-
cerned about the "ministry of
healing" which is done by the
hospitals "for their people".
Rev. Fred Faist, of St. John's
Stratford, made the point that
"Christ was a healing physician
— (He) would have us care. We
are concerned because we are
Christians."
Others mentioned details like
the lack of any ambulance in
Clinton and the overcrowding
foreseen in other area hospitals
which are prevented by budget
cuts from adding staff. There was
a sense of moral indignation at
both the decisions and the way
they were implemented. For
example, the media carried news
of the Clinton closing before the
meeting with the hospital board
to "discuss" such a decision was
underway.
The Presbytery considered
several possible ways to help
with the fight against such 'arbi-
trary dealing with persons under
its care.
The members of Presbytery
were sorry to- learn that two of
our missionaries in Angola are
missing since the upheavals
there. There are Dr. Elizabeth
Bridgman and Miss Edith
Radley, Reg. N.

Michael and Lindon Webster.

School, Marty Young, then pre-
sented the seals. Prizes were pre-
sented by the teachers.

received the offering and, after a
closing hymn, Bev Kay spoke a
few words and closed with
prayer.
