Double prize this week brought
49 entries in the Cartoon Capers
contest, from as far away as Tor-
onto, and from- the Clinton rural
routes, Brucefield and Bayfield. In
fact the judges awarded the prize
this week to a Bayfield lady, Miss
Berthena Sturgeon, who picked
out all the words, listed them with
the correct advertiser, and made
up the hidden title as follows:
"Throw away your gum. EVery-
one is looking at you".
Miss Sturgeon's new title was,
"A real chewing match." She may
pick up $14 worth of merchandise
certificates at the News-Record
Office.
Unfortunately however, this
week's 'Winner, did not enclose a
sales slip from any one of the par-
ticipating merchants, and so is not
eligible for the grand prize of $30
at the end of the contest.
There will be only nine more
contests, including the one this
week. Those eligible for the grand
prize s'o far are Frank Falconer,
RR. 5, Clinton; Mrs. Hazel Kerr,
Clinton; G. H. Adams, Bayfield;
Mrs. Elmer Trick, RR 3, Clinton;
Mrs, M. Anderson, Clinton; Mrs.
Alvin Betties, RR 2, Bayfield; 3.
B. Shorey, RCAF Station Clin-
ton; Mrs. L. Haughton, Clinton.
All winners of the ' next nine
contests may be eligible ONLY IF
they enclose a sales slip with their
entries. At the end of the contest
a selection of the best title will
be announced.
Bayfield Firemen.
Hold Supper,
Hear Spe...4ker or, Friday evening,the firemen
with -their wives enjoyed a get-
together at the New Ritz Hotel.
It is the first time since the Bay-
fieiet Volunteer Fire Brigade was
formed. in 194$ that they have
had such a social gathering.
Thirty-one sat down to dinner,
The committee members arrang-
ins lt were Leslie, Elliott and
SPedeer Ervine. J. E. Hovey, in
his' .capaciy as chairman, introduc-
ed the guest speaker, George 41t-
kin, Fire Inspector, London, who
was accompanied by son
George.
Mr. Aitken gave some of his ex-
periences in fire work,. and spoke
of the progress in equipment, He
brought three reels of film with
him, which were projected by R.eg,
Francis. They had been taken at
the centennial in London and il-
lustrated the various types of fire-
fighting equipment used from the
old hand or horse drawn vehicle,
to the present day motor power,
The speaker pointed' out that
most of the fire fighting depart-
ments had originally started in a
small way like the Bayfield brig-
ade. It was: organized as the re-
sult of an agitation in the Village
for some means of fire-protection
following the disastrous 'fire which
razed the Ritz -Hotel on Labour
Day 1947. And now eight years
later this volunteer fire brigade
was meeting in. the New Ritz Hot-
el.
Seventeen games of euchre were
played, the prizes going to Mrs. J.
Sturgeon, Jr. (high); Mrs. Reg.
Francis (low); R e g. Francis
(high); George Aitken (low),
Bayfield hae a fire brigade of
which to be proud. It has a very
high rating as a volunteer brigade
with the Ontario Fire Marshall's
department. As a result of its
equipment meeting certain stand-
Ontario. Insuranace Underwriter's
ards, it has been recognized by the
Association. This' haS resulted in
a reduction of premiums on priv-
ate dwellings in the village.
Plan Campaign
Apart from the grants, which
the Brigade receives from the vil-
lage,, Stanley and Goderich town-
ships, extra money is always need-
ed to renew equipment and pur-
chase extra fire-fighting apparatus
to keep up-to-date. Therefore a
campaign will be launched this
year for funds and in view of the
reduction in some insurance rates,
it is hoped that there will be a
generous response to support the
work. Those who have had fires
know what it means to be able to
call for help when one starts, and
have. an efficient group of men
drop their own work and arrive on
the scene in a matter of minutes.
The officers are: chief, Walter
M. Westlake; assistant-chief,. Geo-
rge Little; first lieutenant, Gran.t
Turner;' second lieutenant, Reg.
Francis; president, J. E. Hovey;
secretary, Reg. Francis; treasurer,
Leslie Elliott.
