Snowing since August 23rd, the islands are now snowbound with planes the only means of transportation. There are only 10 days of each year when ships are able, with the aid of ice-breakers to reach this northern port with needed supplies for residents and about 6 ships manage to unload supplies during that time. Difficult to imagine being snow-bound one minute trying to cope with our almost 100 percent humidity the next.

' Reminder: Don't forget the series of meetings of the Canadian Club of Port Hope and Cobourg which began yesterday and will be held to September 20 ,at the Dr. Powers Auditorium in Port Hope at 8.15 nightly Pretty soft I call it. Nothing to do all day long 'cept read, eat, sleep, and extra-curicular activity such as tossing a weight around upon one's foot in attempt to fix up a bum knee-- the thing that really irritates me is that Clarence Rittawage, long time friend of your correspondent, has had two weeks of this idle life and expects another. Had I known he was to live this life of ease in Trenton Hospital I'd have stopped with a ream of paper, some pencils, etc. and let him do the Brighton news column instead of rushing back and attempting to do it in a very few hours while still looking at unpacked luggage. All kidding aside, sorry you're laid low Clarence and hope you will soon be up and around.

Re: Engagements and Weddings Just looking over Amy Van-derbilt's Complete Book of Etiquette, (what I term the 'newest" in living ala "Emily") ns so much is devoted to wedding material and-why not? Putting on a wedding not the easiest thing to do and all need- a source of refer-s. At any rate, inasmuch as June is NOT the only time a person marries, I thought it ■might be pertinent to share Emily's advice re: publication. Emily, in speaking of "publicat-of the announcement of engagements and of weddings alike, says the following, you think the papers will furnish it ' yourself, don't /e it to telephone reportage.' From the Brighton - Colborne t me tell you We'll us. it. Thus--you may leave Amy' IF" out of the sentence. How-;ver-- ft would be a wonderful thing if YOU would furnish it and Not Leave It To Telephone Reportage, important thing in my estimat-' her advise on RELEASE DATE. While Emily is speaking of papers in the same city when she says, "furnish it to EACH jpaper, preferably in advance with the notation FOR RELEA-day -- month and date, typed in the upper left-hand corner, (write it wherever you 3 far as I'm concerned). She goes on to say, "this i that you have put the limitation on all other releases furnished rival papers. NOW--what I'm trying get at is the fact that though YOU in BRIGHTON have NO PAPER--and thus you consider you have nothing to yourself about--may I stress the point the The Colborne Chronicle, which I truly hope you consider YOUR paper issues weekly paper and others je a bi-weekly. Not that any i could term papers so remote as Trenton and Colborne rivals, they do each, of irse, carry Brighton news. Therefore, I'm certain the Tren-tonian would agree, IF YOU gave /the Colborne Chronicle YOUR wedding or engagement time for Thursdays weekly publication and the Trentonian did not receive the same news until their Tuesday publication -well--do I have to explain ore? This, of course, works in le same way, vica-versa. SO, will you endeavor to mark such things as engagements and weddings or other news you will naturally wish to have in both papers with a RELEASE DATE so that both will be able to publish the "news" on the same date? Would so appreciate your thaughtfulness in this manner and--you'd save yourself the possibility of having one of the papers decide to eliminate YOUR wedding much as ft had already been carried by the other edition.

Sandwiches of different flavours, especially strong, contrasting flavours, should never be wrapped together, says the Food and Nutrition Department, Macdonald Institute, Guelph. Fillings such as salmon, or egg and 'ion, will impart their flavours to the other finings. Sandwich meals can be satisfying as well as easy to prepare. School children in particular need well-balanced lunches. Serve a relish or salad with the sandwich; include a fruit dessert and beverage. The Food and Nutrition Department, Macdonald Institute, Guelph, suggests combinations such as ham sandwiches made with whole wheat bread, coleslaw, applesauce, and cold milk; or a toasted cheese sandwich, celery curls, stewed rhubarb and milk. Safety sign: "Watch out for school children . . . especially if they're driving." When parents are able to answer the children's questions sign that the kids are
