Page 8, Terrace Bay-Schreiber News, Wednesday, December 10, 1986 Winnie's Scribbles ACW Bazaar Our bazaar on Nov. 29 was a huge success. All our efforts bore fruits and our co-ordinator, Joanne LeBlanc, was very proud of the ladies. As you came in, there was a chidren's corner where you could buy a surprise package. Then you moved on to the crocheting, knitting and sewing table, followed by the novelty table. Around the corner you were lured with the smell of cooking and baking. After, you turned to another table of knitting, and ended with a "not so new table". Also, in-between were raffles and a penny auction. A huge hit this year was the raffled His and Hers Sweaters knitted by Flo Bryson. ' The prizes were as follows: Door Prize (ceramic Santa's Boot)- Zonie Fischer. His and Hers Sweater raffle- Ed Singleton. Christmas Fruit Cake raffle- Mary Valentine. Penny Auction (Broom decoration)- Cathy Lemieux. Fruit Cake- Georgette Cebrario. Napkin and Placemats- Mary Huard. Clown Cake- Annie Scott. Thank-you to all the ladies that donated their time and effort to make this another successful bazaar. ACW Meeting- Dec. 3.

These changes put your Plan on a solid, long-term financial foundation. .. It's important to know what ' benefits are available because your Plan provides you and/or your fam- ily with a basic level of earnings protection when you retire, become disabled, or die. You will, however, have to apply for the benefits when you believe you are eligible. The ee that follows highlights the major improvements. It's good news! Ff inancing a better tomorrow New financing arrangements will make and keep your Plan more secure than ever. Right now you and your employer each contribute 1.8% of your earnings up to a maximum amount. Each year until 1991, the contribution rate will rise by 0.2% and from there until 2011 by 0.15%. If you make the maximum contribution, you will pay about $26 more in 1987. "@ANADA PENSION PLAN is changing for the better. (Aba of onan OS? Increased disability benefits If you qualify for disability benefits, your monthly payment will now be significantly increased. For example, the maximum disability pension in 1987 will increase from $487 to more than $635 per month. As well, anyone entering or returning to the work force will have disability coverage after contributing in 2 of the last 3 years, in which contributions could have been made. Survivor benefits continue on remarriage If you receive survivor benefits, they will now continue even if you remarry. If you remarried and had your survivor benefit discontinued, you can have your benefit reinstated. Splitting pension credits ii your marriage ends in divorce, each spouse will be entitled to one half the "pension credits" you earned together. r January 1, 1987, the credits can also be divided if your marriage or com- mon-law relationship ends in separation. Ai wider choice of retirement options Alter January ist, you can begin receiving your CPP pension as early as age 60. You could qualify even if you are not fully retired. If you begin your pension before age 65, our benefits will be less because you will fave contributed less and will get the bene- fits for a longer period of time. Or, if you choose not to start your pen- sion until after age 65, (up to age 70), your monthly benefits will be greater. Your pension would normally be pay- able the month after your 65th birthday. For each month between that date and when your pension begins, your benefit will be adjusted by 0.5%. This adjustment will apply for as long as you receive the benefit.

Before These Holy Angels School students were given globs of dough, made mainly from flour and water, and left to create their own personal mouse creations. The students are shown holding their work in the beginning stages. They were later baked for close to two hours and painted many different colors. (Photo by Ken Lusk). Dough. mice made from a dough mixture By Ken Lusk Holy Angels School teacher, John St. Amand, has appealed to parents of students to help, if they can, in demonstrating any hobbies that they have in order to expose the children to fulfilling and rewarding leisure-time activities. These after-school activities began on Nov. 18 and will continue until Dec. 16, and include fascinating topics like stain-glass, comic book collecting, cake decorating, coin,postcard and antique collections, gemstone tumbling and jewelry making and bread dough decorating. Letter to parents John St. Amand wrote to parents and stated that through the observation of their skills and expertise in a particular hobby or field, he would like to in- troduce Grades 4, 5 and 6 students to a great variety of learning experiences. St. Amand said all the demonstra- tions have been well-attended by the students. At the bread dough decorating ses- sion on Dec. 4, 13 students proceeded to knead a lump of dough to create mice that will eventually be placed on their Christmas trees. The children were shown how to make these dough mice by Mrs. G. Cebrario and she was assisted by Mrs. Larivee. Cebrario showed the kids how to make the dough from four cups of flour, 1% cups of warm water and | cup of salt. The dough was rolled into smooth, round balls, making sure to smooth out any cracks by wetting the area. The ball was pinched up into a tear- drop shape for the body, and another smaller ball of dough was rounded for the head. The heads were connected to the bodies and left to dry. Wetting the dough makes all the parts stick better, said Cebrario. Beads were used for the eyes and had to be pushed in really deep. Ears and noses were molded from the dough and then paper clips were inserted down the backs so that they will hang from the trees. The remaining dough was rolled in- to long strips for the arms and legs. Overnight baking Mrs. Cebrario took all the mice home and baked them for close to two hours at 325 F, and brought them back the next day so the kids could put the finishing touches on their hangable mice. They painted their creations many different colors with water-soluble acrylic paint. A few of the kids had made other decorations overnight-birds, a por- cupine and a wreath. Some of the creations were brown, some were yellow and some were even a mixture of gold, brown and orange. St. Amand said that he wants to "ex- pose them (the children) to the different hobbies in existence in the town," and that the idea is not to get them into a hobby, but to show them what they could get into. "It also exposes them to different adults," he said. Other activities will be wreath mak- ing with Mrs. L. Boon on Dec. 11, and Christmas decorations, with Mrs. J. Moorey, on Dec. 16. All classes have been from 4-5 p.m. .at Holy Angels School in Schreiber.
