Clinton. Colts were really in high gear last Saturday evening when they trounced the Clinton Electras 11-3. The onslaught was led by McEwan with four goals and Edgar with two tallies. Did- cluck paced the Electras attack with two of their three markers. The Colts, smarting from their defeat at New Hamburg earlier in the week gave the Electras no chance to get organized. They were beating the RCAF crew ro the draw continually and Trem- blay in the net had to play brill- iantly to hold the score down tp eleven. Danny Colquhoun opened the scoring at the 4.40 mark of the first period with his first goal of the year. Seven minutes later Mc- Ewan scored on a pass from Mur- ray Coiquhoun to give the Colts a lead that they never relinquished. Didduck made it 2-1, scoring un- assisted at 18,45 but McEwan got that one back as the period ended. From the opening face off in the second period Manley, Rochon and Didduck carried the play into the Colt's zone and scored on a very neat play, Didduck tipping the disc behind Nediger before he could make a move. The Colts took command from that point and before the period ended Edgar, Strong and McEwan had scored to make the score 6-2. In the final frame the Electras tired badly and Clinton scored five more goals. Gilhen lit the red light for the RCAF to round out the scoring. Perhaps the busiest man on the ice was Tremblay. He had a shower of pucks to stop and had absolutely no chance on the eleven that eluded him. Time and time again he kicked out what seemed to be certain goals. The Colts defensive play was vastly improved from the previous games. The opposing forwards were given a rough reception and showed the effects in the third period as their pace slowed down Considerably.

E. Hartley, president of the local chamber, was master of cer- emonies and apart from the re- sults to those who consumed every available species of pie, the Ladles' Night was acclaimed a roaring success. Following the repast, Sgt, Plem- kett, accompanied by Sgt, Frank Hanlon, both of RCAF Station, Clinton, entertained with songs both classic and modern, Sgt Frank Hamon and Mrs, Hanlon rendered a medley of piano duets, to the delight of the listening aud- ience. The president of the chamber in- troduced the guest speaker, Jos- eph Connell, More familarly known as "Joe", the popular sec- retary of the third largest YMCA in Canada, at Kitchener, is known far and wide as an enter- taining speaker. Despite his ab- ility to keep his listeners roaring with laughter, he is also able to put across some important • facts for the improvement of life. He chose as his subject for the evening "You and Your Personal- ity." From the story of a mother who set before her family an ob- noxious "two prunes" for desert, the speaker proceeded in his in- imitable manner with use of hum- erous examples from every day life, to impress that the small things are what "upset the apple- cart"—in attempts at improving the general tenor of life in any community. The little gossipings, the small bickerings, the insignifi- cant differences, which should not count at all, are coddled in such a fashion as to spoil the fellowship and friendships which alone can make community life what it might be. "Imitate the best features in the life of people, instead of the worst ones," declated Joe Connell," and behold how wonderful your town and community will become. The older citizens of a community set the pace for the youth. I have 95 young people on parole to me in, Kitchener. When I inquire into their misdemeanors, I could happily wring the necks of their parents, for, 'in the great majority of cases the youth are just what they have been made to be. How can you expect to have law-abiding young people, when in their homes they hear the grudges and grouch- ings of parents held for trivial reasons against their next door neighbor's? Improve your person- ality by cultivating the best you find in men and women. Forget the worst things altogther. Then your neighborhood will be a grand place in which to live, your town will be a grand town and you, yourself will be the ideal citizen." "Go to 10 friends and ask them to tell you your faults in an hon- est fashion," the speaker said in closing, "and when you hear them, set to work to rid yourself of them. See how your community will be loved by you," L. G. Winter expressed the thanks of the assembled guests and members of the Chamber of Commerce for the delightful thought provoking address and the whole audience joined in the vote of appreciation, SKATES SHARPENED Seaforth Couple Wed 47 Years Mr. and Mrs, Lorne S.
