Clinton's Coronation
Day Programme
(Continued from Page Ope)
present on this Saturday for the
Clinton Spring Show, would stay
in Clinton until Tuesday for the
Coronation Day program. There
will be a Ferris wheel, and no
doubt several other rides, and of
course the hot-dog stands and oth-
er concessions,which help make a
good day that much better.
And At Night
In the evening the Clinton
Branch of the Canadian Legion
will take over festivities for a
gigantic street frolic. Remember
the fun you hard last year at the
Kinsmen frolic? The Kinsmen and
the Lions had an exciting tug-of-
war. Remember? Well, we'll
wager that this evening that the
Legion is planning will at least be
equal to that.
The Legion members have got-
ten permission to block off the
portion of Albert Street between
the main intersection and Ratten-
bury Street, and will set up games
of all varieties along the sidewalks
and on the lawn of Library Park.
These promise to include bingo
games, paddle games, tossing
rings, tossing dimes, in fact all
the games that commonly are
connected with frolics. Of course
there will be places to buy hot-
dogs, soft drinks, candy and gum,
hot coffee aid hamburgers, too.
Games and booths will be ready
for operation at seven o'clock.
Special event of the evening will
be the crowning of "Princess of
Huron County", which will take
place at nine o'clock, possibly on
the Town Hall steps. Entries for
this contest may be of any age up
to 21 years, and will be accepted
up until 15 minutes before judging
commences. This will be a great
thrill for some pretty young miss.
Prize for this is a wrist watch be-
ing donated by J. A, Anstett,
Jeweller.
Dancing on the street will com-
mence at approximately ten
o'clock. A welcome interruption
will come at eleven, when draws
will be made to pick the winners
of the refrigerator, lazy -boy chair
and suit of clothes which the Le-
gion has been selling tickets on
for the last few months. Proceeds
from this draw are slated to help
finish construction of the new Le-
gion Memorial Hall on Dirk St.
If you don't yet happen to have
a ticket on this draw, there are
still a few available, and Corona-
tion Day may be your lucky day.
(We'd like to place another
wager, If you manage to wake in
the morning that day and keep
track of the Coronation celebra-
tion in England by radio and tele-
vision, and then keep up with all
the doings in Clinton from eleven
o'clock oh ---if you stay with it the
whole day and take part in every
bit of rnerryment that comes your
way—you'll have had a good day,
a busy day, and certainly one to
remember.)
And as the eetiimittee has told
tls- "in case of rain, it will be
held in the arena.",
Know and obey your traffic
)hwa ...., for life.
