Under the direction of presi- dent Betty MacDonald of IiR3, Auburn, the executive slate will also include: vice president. Melody Ambeault of RIO, Goderich; secretary, Dianne Foster of RR6, Goder- ich; treasurer, Laurie Jeffery of Goderich, The directors will be Nancy Brindley of RR3, Goderich; Marty Bond of Goderich; Joanne Reinhart of Auburn, Ruth Stevenson of RR2. Teeswater; Peggy.Jer- vis of Dungannon; Muriel Stokes of Goderich; Fran Talbot of Bayfield; Gail Clark of RIt1. Bayfield and Janet Gardiner of RR5, Goderich. The local branch,which covers a wide district, was approved by the Ontario Humane Society in Toronto earlier this year after a petition sent to the provincial headquarters showed a need and interest in forming a district society. Circulated as a pledge some two years ago, the petition was signed by more than 600 people. Mrs. MacDonald said that no definite boundaries have been established for the local branch and it will service a number of counties where the need is found. The branch may also operate in the Stratford area since •the branch there closed because it was small and only had facilities for cats. Mrs. MacDonald explained that there is a need for a Humane Society branch throughout the entire district and noted that the group's objective is, "To prevent cruelty and to promote the welfare of animals, birds and other living creatures by any legitimate means, including and enforcing all existing laws." She added that the branch would make efforts to pro- mote and encodrage educa- tion the humane treatment of animals. Plans are now underway to establish an animal shelter in the district. Equipped and maintained by the local branch, the shelter will be designed to, keep •and treat sick, injured or stray animals. The humane destruction of unwanted animals will also be carried out at ttte shelter along with finding homes for unclaimed animals and will assist owners in finding new homes for their pets. Fund raising efforts will soon get underway for the A favourite, but e OO ddo un *ndo by Eladn@ 4owwzQnd If Autumn did not come in September and October. it would probably be my favourite season of the year. Or, if September and October did not fall in Autumn, they might be my favourite months of the year. 1 can almost sec you. dear readers, scratching your heads and muttering: "Say What?" This is what I mean: If Autumn and the months of September and October did not precede winter, this would be my favourite time of year. As most of you probably know. I . have developed over the years a strong aversion to winter. t, Autumn is another story. There's so�.hing magical about Pall that excites me. • One thing is the colour. Autumn might be described as the season of the clumsy painter, who knocks oscr all his oils, acrylics and water colours. What could hasc been a disaster is somehow transposed into a thing of beauty, as the whole countryside is splashed with colour. The magic is heightened hs a tyrant of a wind that chases gre) and white clouds across the sky. Now and then. the sun breaks through to highlight patches of colour below. And, in the shadows. lay darker hues Autumn is a perfect time for poets to to to capture 'beauty in words John Donne proclaimed, "No Spring. no Summer Beauty hath such grace. 1s I have seen in one Autumnatl tate." S.T. Coleridge added: "0, the splendour of the Universe! for many of us autumntime is the most glorious ofthe year," A more practical nate comes from the pen of Stephen Schiltzer: "Autumn's the time a home -owner grieves; He has to turn over a lot of new leaves!" Fall is a busy season. September begins with the long holiday weekend fling- a sort of farewell'to summer.. Then it's back to school and back to work for many. October features Thanksgiving, when the harvest has been gathered and thanks is given for the bounty and the beauty around us. October ends on a pitch black night with many people working hard to make themselves look as scary as possible. Autumn is full of surprises. For example, the early part of October was unusually balmy, Gettijg out and enjoying the country- side was a pleasure. Then one day the tyrant of a wind began to blow even stronger, baring most of the trees, Then came Saturday morning. October 16. I turned on the radio to a request line program. A little girl was asking the announcer to play the song "Frosty The Snowman." "Strange child," 1 thought. But. when 1 heard the news, 1 understood. Some parts of Southwestern Ontario had received snow overnight. The heavy wet stuff weighted down tree limbs which, bent onto hydro lines cutting power to many areas. Some towns even had to break out the sanders. And, as 1 glanced out my window. 1 noticed tiny white pellets dancing in the wind• reminding me why Autumn is not my favourite time of year. project. Initial pledges will be collected and with other pro- jects will help to finance the shelter. Mrs. MacDonald said that the Ontario Society will help to finance the shelter,, For more information on the local branch contact Mrs. MacDonald at 529-7865 or Mrs. Foster at 529-7851.
