The Pre- sident, Mrs. Dorothy Naples, 'welcomed the members by wishing them Good Health, Peace and Happiness for the coming year. The roll call was answered by each member giving an article for a White Elephant Sale. They were many and varied. At the conclusion of the business portion, the meet- ing was turnéd over to Irene Whitfield and her group. "they talk, they argue, and discuss. with John Gast il I know some crusty journalist friends of mine who just wouldn't believe Port Perry. "Lake WHAT.....SKEWGAUUG?..... Wherzat?" Well, after all the old standbys have been sounded, like the don't-blink-or-you-won't-see-it one, or the population 3,000-including-cats-and- dogs one, you just smile a bit and feel sorry for them. They'll never know. I could tell them, but | wont. About the guy who talked to me the other day as anked up the car. Or the people that have wafted forme to pull out from the curb.

Miracle of miracles, in Port Perry They rap about ideas, schemes, and philosophies. And laugh. And from what one can find in the past record, the talk stage, more often than not, leads to the doing stage. Fascinating. It's getting to me, too. Just yesterday a guy .said hello to me on the street. and | almost answered back. I guess 1 need more time. BOWMANVILLE CLEANERS 84 KING ST.

This can come from academic learning, but it can also be from informal development of the mind from short courses and workshops to develop our knowledge of nutrition, sew- ing or crafts, by sponsoring our 4H clubs to encourage and teach our teenagers to become good homemakers and leaders. All this is beyond school learning, and - it widens our horizons. A poem was also read by Councillors get continued eration, according to Mr. Ashe. "We took into account all considerations and suggest- ions," he quipped, "even those who think our salaries should be cut in half or cut off altogether." He said the increase is reasonable, yet it takes into account the rising cost of living. In giving his support to the ~ motion for the pay increase, Coun.
