Marriage announcement Stan and Teresa Corner- ford are pleased to annouince the forthcoming marriage of' their daughter, Patricia Ann to David Orville Chatterton, son of Orville and Betty As Granidma did Often during the years Donna reinrisces of hler fre- quent cildbiood vsisto Griandmia anildCIr anridpa Dean's tarm wb0ich was located soutbl of theVilg on thle fou llue atthlein tescto ith, thce nw, The farm, accoiJring to the Clarke Museumn displa, w ýas at one ime knownýi as thec Rosebank farm anid its; history does date back well into the 180s. Somnehow it gives a warm and comifortable feeling to hear of those visits when the chores included bringing in the wood in the intier from the woodshed, the team and sleigh and, of course, the col- lecing of' the eggs frotpi the ben house which onily last sumnmer had been completely whitewashed, and Donna dlaims by Grandma and gran- daughOter. The summer heat broughr about the time ro pump the ourside pumnp diligenrly uintil the cold waters fromn the bot- tom of the well filled the paîl and from w xhich Grandma Dean made root beer which tasted every bit as good as that sold in the tone pop boutles. 0f course it was for the men in rthe fields as they went labout their chores of bringing in the harvest and at a period in history that ir was- al mnanual labour, no air- condirioned tractors in those dlays. There was also the weeding of the garden, the picking of, bernies, apples and some of the wild fruits thiat grew along the fence rows. Donnïa did mention, at one imne, of plick'ing choke cher- ries, which, shte said, hung ini large cu ter rom small trees along thie fences, and whicbi fruit was mnade into chokeý cherry %,jello. 1 wýas mîrndful of this story when walking through the woods abouit mid Augu"Lst of this year wbhen the choke Cherry bhLIes or trees kung laden w\itb those larg'e clusters of choke cerie.il fact miosr trees fromi the srruces Chatterton, Orono.

It was even the case with the June Berry for ir was about the first ime 1 have ever seen the fruit fr om this most com- mon bush wvhich provides the first bloomn in the spring. The fru iti whiich resem ble somniewbýiar of a large bluebierry but with a calyx at thle end and some sweeter is generally gobbled up by the birds long before I would come acr oss it. 1 waired until the choke cherries gor a deep blue and then spent part of one even- ing partially filling a basket to take home to see if Donna would like to relive those days down on the farm by rurning up the front burner on the electric stove and-com- ing up with some choke cherry jelly. There was no opposition to the suggestion and ro my amazement they still print the recipe on the back of the label of a bottle of Certo. The only problem was 1 had not picked enough choke cherries and ir, seems one has to have the correct amouni tor the recipe i,; not to be reduced or increased in any way: It meant anorber trip to the bush, whicb of course 1 always enjoy, and 1 did have Donna to give a hand to dou- ble the amouint 1 bad picked a few days prcvious. Choke, cherry jcîly! it's great and 1 just might try the same course next year. Sam at..

The overaliemiploymrent pic- ture in Ontario is showing significant imnprovement this year. In Junie, the unjemjploy- ment rate stdjod at 8.6 percent eompared to 10.6 percent the year before. The uniemploy- Ment rate for the rest oft Canada for thec samne period declined only miarginially, from 12.9 percenlt to 12.7 per - cent. Perhaps the miost hieartenj- ing news is that the O-ntranio youth unemploymrent rate has dropped sharply by 5.6 pier- cent over the yvear t o 13.4 per - Cent. There is still imuich to()be done but thiere are positive signs that our econiomly is strengtheing.
