t I l The Canadian Statesman, Bowman ville, Wednesday, November 17,1993 Section Two -Do a Problem in Elliot Park Happenings in Hampton by Michelle Balson -- 697- Now and again you come across information that is too late for printing. printing. I received a phone call from a concerned Mill Street resident early last week. It seems as though I was correct in saying that Elliot Park is "a place for the young and older to enjoy." enjoy." However, man's best friend, the four legged-kind, enjoy the park so much that it relieves itself, we're talking about the kind of dogs that are walked on leashes. That yucky, squishy feeling of stepping in doggie do is not a favourite. Especially for the kids play in every inch of a park. Please, folks, you know who you are, when out walking your pet, scoop the poop. I'm sure you would appreciate it if the shoe was on the other foot. The Hampton/Enniskillcn Pathfinders Pathfinders have been keeping busy. The young women recently took part in a service project with Dr. Rowsell, who resides in Enniskillen.

As part of-the Guiding program on Thursday, November 11th the Hampton Hampton Guides went to the Robert McLaughlin Gallery. We were met by a lady named Joy who said she was a "docent" which is Greek for teacher. We learned that paintings are done on canvas, which is stretched over a frame. The artists use warm and cold colours.in their art. Artists put light around the faces so people will like them better. We learned about abstract art and hidden pictures in the canvas. We also saw snapshots of Oshawa years ago, one of King Street when it was still a dirt road. The art gallery has a gift shop and a restaurant, it is owned by the public. The Art Gallery is located on Centre Street in Oshawa. This piece was written by second year Guide Ashley Broome. A job well done. Thank you Ashley.

After admitting in last week's column column that I hadn't finished the chore of raking leaves, I decided it was time to kick bull. With gloves on, rake in hand, I set about the task. Ten bags later it looked better, but was still a ways off. That's enough for one day. Well didn't I wake up the next morning stiff as a board. I guess I haven't used some of those muscles in a while. The following day I said to myself that 30 deciduous trees and shrubs were not going to get the best of me. I raked and bagged 11. Yes, that is 30 bags, one per tree. Then my little one tells me that "the trees are sleeping Mom and the leaves fall to keep their feet warm". I"m really wondering if I like having this many trees. I think I'll dump the remaining six piles in my compost. Until next time folks, stay safe and enjoy life.
