KINGCRAFTS The annual general meeting of Kingcrafts House was held September 25 with President Doris Walker at the podium. This was the 24th birthday of the Kingcrafts organization. The first meeting of Kingcrafts was held in the home of Lady Flavelle in September, 1950. m .- v-r_, In 24 years. Kingcrafts of King has fulfilled its pur- pose which was: (a) to promote the various hand- crafts in King and surrounding districts; (b) to improve the skill and ar- tistry of those practising the crafts; and (c) to foster a community spirit through the medium of handcrafts. A financial report was given by Treasurer Bertha Gardhouseand the minutes from the last AGM were read by Secretary Ruth Finch. Reports were also given by the individual group convenors or their representatives. Everyone received a copy of the constitution and bylaws of Kingcrafts. Lady Flavelle read a special birthday message to the group in which she congratulated the members on the financially sound conditions of Kingcrafts and expressed her pleasure in the fact Kingcrafts House has no mortgage. HAPPINESS. HEALTH She went on to say how she felt Kingcrafts House brought happiness and mental health to many women. Lady Flavelle then presented the President with a “Pot Pourri", a lovely sampler done in crewel work to be framed and mounted on a wall in Kingcrafts House.

I don't think you can be in this business without being genuiner curious about people, about their lives, and the million things that make them different from each other. But a person's difference doesn’t alWays show on the surface and you can’t force it out. It takes a lot of listening. not only to the person's words but to the hidden man or woman behind them. My main effort is always to make the person feel at ease. to let my guests know the moment they walk into the studio that they’ll be treated with respect and thoughtfulness. Putting people on the spot or deliberately embarrassing them doesn’t interest me. I want them to relax and explore the things that really mean something to them. When a long-time inter- national star tells you candidly she has no difficulty relating to huge audiences, My life in the listening business Frank Buck is playing the part of Charley’s Aunt, with Ken Lloyd as Charley.

She becomes a real person talking, not just a stage personality. It’s that kind of response that suddenly makes an interview take off.

Holy Eucharist is at 8 a.m. and 10.30 a.m. PARENT'S COUNCIL King‘s schools do not have a home and school association and the King Parent’s Council will not attempt to fill this need, but will work on the broader issues in education. They hope to elect an executive on October 17 when they meet in the King Senior Public School at 8 pm. They hope to elect representatives from each school. These persons will become part of a steering uest j AC»: good interview are the intangibles you simply can’t explain. The tangibles are easy enoughâ€"the amount of homework done in advance and your own ability to concentrate completely on the guest. If someone controversial is presenting an unpopular view, the listening audience is entitled to a fair and impartial presentation. I believe it is the audience, not the interviewer, who judges the merits of a guest. Audi- ences have a lot of common sense and are quite capable of arriving at their own decisions. Broadcasting takes you into many different worlds, but always it is the people, what they think, what they feel, why they do the things they do, that count most. we“ DONNA'S BITS&PIECES This weekend is the holiday Thanksgiving weekend.

Some felt I was stepping too hard on the caterer’s toes. I wasn't! The fault, I feel. lies within the organizations sponsoring the event. It wasn‘t the quality of the food. and the caterer certainly supplies the quantity which is or- dered. My complaint was at the prices charged, and the suitability of the food.

Ruth Collinson, youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Collinson of 19 George Street, was married September 29 to Michael Street. son of Mr. and Mrs. B. Street of Scarboro. The marriage took place at the New Apostolic Church in Port Credit. The reception afterwards was held at the Viking Hall, Oak Ridges. A beautiful buffet supper was prepared by Gallachers, with some delicious homemade salads con- tributed by the bride’s mother and sister. The amiable bartender was Vic Robinson, whose wife Sheri artistically garnished the salads and helped serve, along with yours truly. It's been three years since I was in the Viking Hall, which used to be the Lions Hall and I was amazed at the transformation. It really is a very charming place now and very inviting and obviously a lot of thought and hard work has gone into making it that way. IT STRUCK ME FUNNY A girl friend and I went to the opening of the new Sears store at Upper Canada Mall October 2 â€" the day of the snow, remember. Returning home. travelling south on Yonge Street, we noticed a large highway sign, com- pletely covered with snow on which some wag 'had inscribed with his finger in large letters â€" COLD, EH?

After all, the poor fellow didn’t even have a blanket or a pillow. Perhaps he had been making out his reports and 1while counting all the tickets he had issued had fallen to sleep. (Infinitely better than sheep.) We laughed our heads off at that one. Then just north of Aurora we turned onto St. John’s Sideroad and decided to come home via the con- cession and admire the fall colors and the snow. It was then we saw an even funnier sight â€" a York Regional Police Officer asleep in his cruiser at 10.15 in the morning. Still, whatever the reason. it’s somehow nice to know that at least one member of the regional police is human, Too often these days one is left in doubt, and I speak from experience. As a YRP officer in- formed me as he wrote out a $23 ticket for a minor traffic infringement (I turned wrongly), “Ignorance of the law is no excuse". He was so curt and pompous about it, too. I told him that I thought it should be, and I hoped to live to see the day when it is.

York Region’s caravan, which has visited shopping centres and other locales in the area this summer to tell the region‘s story to the public. has proved to be a better means of com- munication than have public meetings, Planning Com- missioner Murray Pound told a planning committee meeting last week.

Special thanksgiving service with a program by primary and junior children will be held at the Brethren In Christ Church October 13. of York Céntral Hospital. Her topic is physical wholeness. Tonight‘s speaker is Miss Elizabeth Flood, head of the physiotherapy department Pound said although the caravan was designed as an information centre for its first tour, people put forth their views on various/issues and asked considerable questions about the operation of the region. PEOPLE NERVOUS He said often at public meetings. people were too nervous to ask questions and the Caravan thus prompted more direct involvement. crowds at the Woodbridge and Markham fairs were expected to swell this total considerably. The caravan then winds up its tour in Newmarket. I \ JIG SAW $19.95
