Porro Page 6 The Haileyburian Across the kitchen Table BY MRS. MAC There is a lot of talk these days about bonuses. Employees receive a bonus for good work, or for sug- gestidni§ on how to save time in their work, salesmen are given a "bonus for extra sales, but Sunday I got a bonus at the end of a good | day, and I don't know what it was for. Sunday evening I took my aunt and Mrs. Cameron for a drive. We went north on the high- way for perhaps. seven or eight miles and then turned right on one of the sideroads. It wasn't a very good road, rutted, muddy and nar- row, brush growing close to the ditches and trees close to the brush, but as we were coming down a long hill, I noticed what I thought was two large dogs on the road ahead. As we came nearer, a third larger animal came out onto 'the road and the three of them stood looking up at us. It was a mother deer and two fawns.

"Choose from fabrics in a variety of tex- tures, in solid darks or plaids, and singing new colors, from the al- ways good basic sheath dress to the new flare. The all wool costume is destined to be your best fashion investment for fall /61, and away, way after. We believe in building your fall and winter wardrobe around the wool knit costume or basic wool dress, and Evelyn has the basic wools you have been looking for, sophisticated, yet sublimely sim- ple; deftly shaped to give you a wonderful new look. The 'classic jewel neckline and long sleeve with tiny zipper at the wrist will give you that moulded line and good fit. You will note the long sleeve very much in evidence this sea- son. A very handsome tweed costume "tn brown and gold, by "Front Page Fashions'. could be worn as a Street costume with its smart short jacket, or as an afternoon dress, accented with that necklace or pin you have tucked away. A ship- ment of half sizes, from fourteen and-a-half to twenty-four and-a- half, has just been unpacked, in the new shades of magenta, green, peacock and a lovely blue which is again back in favor. Hats in velvet and fluffy marabou are flattering to any age. You are always welcome at Evelyn's whether shopping or 'browsing. Your fall costume may be laid away with a deposit. Shop THE SHOPPE Thursday, August 17, 1961 turned and trotted down the road ahead of us with their snowy little tails straight up in the air, for nearly a quarter of a mile and then went off into the brush. It gave us such a nice feeling to see the pretty little creatures. A couple of miles farther on, we came to a better road, drove north for a couple of miles and then came back to the highway at the Nine Mile Corner. This week I had the pleasure of meeting another of my faithful cor- respondents, who has been com- menting on my column for a good many years. Mr. James MacFar- lane of Downsview, who is holiday- ing in Haileybury, called at the of- fice Monday morning and it was nice chatting with him and discov- ering that we had mutual friends. And incidentally, his name is the same as my father's was, although we are not related at all. Also this week, I met an old neighbor of ours who used to live near us at Heaslip, Mr. Hammerton, who, with Mrs. Hammerton, is visiting his daughter, Mrs. John Gilkes, and Mr. Gilkes. %* * * Those men have done it again!

It was written and composed by Wade Hemsworth. A few years ago, while Mr. Hemsworth was working with an Ontario Hydro survey party in "North Ontar-i-o", he was inspired to write this bal- lad. Ontario Hydro officials said the power dam mentioned inthe song is the Otter Rapids Generating Station, 90 miles north of Coch-~ rane, now nearing completion. The quotation -- "To make the Little Ab flow -around the other way", is in reality the proposed diversion of the Little Abitibi Riv- er so its water will eventually flow through the generators at office window.
