Can Cook Moms And Guests Enjoy the Proof The Dairy Queens and The Northern Six the two groups of Homemakiag girls with the help their leaders and assis tants entertained their mothers members of the WI and special guests at a ban quet on Wednesday evening It was held In the basement tho church There were girls In all The tables were tastefully decorated for the occasion The food prepared by the girls con sisted of dishes which the basic ingredient was milk or a dairy product The main course consisted of three or 4 different types of salads rolls and relishes Desserts were cherry cheese cake lemon chiffon and dandy candy These are all dishes the girls were taught to make at tho latest club Dairy Fare Close to fifty sat down to the delicious meal Honoured guests besides the mothers and I members were Mrs Johnston Rev Kelvin Johnston and two grand mothers Mrs Jack McLaugh lin and Mrs Dan Campbell Mrs Johnston spoke briefly and praised the girls for the effort and work they had in planning and providing such a delightful supper She thanked the leaders and those who had taken the course there by passing It on to the girls She ended by say- Ing that being a good home- maker was the basic ingred ient for a happy home Mrs replying said she al so spoke for her assistant Mrs in that they found it a pleasure working with the girls Mrs McLean who assisted Mrs Ada Klrkwood with tho Northern group said they had enjoyed the work also Mrs Given courtesy convener for the WI thanked one and all for this very fine gesture in viting them out for a treat It was indeed a pleasure to have a night out with no work In volved Seeing what the girls could do in putting up such a wonderful meal was indeed proof that any donations given by the WI was being spent wise ly and well The Ing clubs

Primarily for Children Not Snowmobile Operators Weber Drive Dear Sir I am out sea son and whipping a well whip ped horse but I would be re miss in my duties as a concern ed parent if I did not comment on the irrational arguments presented by tho snowmobile club and reported on In last weeks Georgetown Herald in the clubs request for the use of the parks and playgrounds for the First the club maintains as taxpayers we have the right to use the parks Let me com ment that as parents and also as taxpayers we too ore entit led to the protection afforded by the parks for our children The parks were designed primarily for the child most certainly not for the Secondly the club maintains not one serious accident has occurred in the parks as a re sult of the snowmobiler Many serious have occur red in parks In many municip alities all over Ontario The po tential of the machine as a highly hazardous piece of equip ment if used irresponsibly and even sometimes when used res ponsibly has been well docu mented The implication of the Snowmobile dub here seems to be that council should wait un til we km at least one child be fore action Is taken I have personally witnessed two near misses to children to the skating rink in our area as a result of irresponsible teenage Thirdly I question the clubs assertion that children should be encouraged to use the parks would you rather that they stand in the streets and be in troduced to drugs There ore many alternate types of win ter recreation for the youth such as skiing skating playing hockey etc These are healthy envigorating forms of physical activity which are available to the young developing child and most of these are provided for In the local parks Fourthly the club comments on the amounts of business done in town as a result of the snow This argument is so ludicrous that it is not worth wasting paper to discuss iL Surely there are areas read fly accessible for the without infringement on the territories delegated to our children If there are no such areas then the will have to suffer the same incon venience as the competent skier and travel a few miles to one of the many available areas In southern Ontario I am not terribly concerned with the shrub and grass dam age at it can be replaced cheaply nor am I pri marily concerned with either noise abatement or with the ecological threat of the mach ine however I am vitally con cerned with the safety of the child The Snowmobile Club ad mits that the machine should be banned from certain roads Is this to protect the or the pedestrian Surely the year old child merits at least the protection of either Many thanks to those on council who defend our case and in particular to Reeve Morrow Let your sanity integ rity and youthful be a model to all the elected representatives throughout the province in whose hands the electorate has placed so much responsibility Let us not stand pat while the very safety of the child Is threa tened their helplessness de
