Craig, better known as "Baseball Bill" when he was given a set of luggage and an onyx desk set consisting of clock and pens. Sergeant Pat Dumayne, in well- chosen words expressed regret at having to say farewell to this popular fellow worker after ten years of faithful service as a car- penter. With mixed feelings, Mr. Craig thanked his pals for their good wishes and lovely gifts. Mr. Craig has always taken an active interest in community sport having managed the Auburn Ju- venile baseball team that won three consecutive Ontario champ- ionships. Mr. Craig is also a vil- lage trustee at Auburn, Mr. and Mrs. Craig are blessed with a family of six: (Dorothy), Mrs, Stanley Strasser, Sault Ste.

The term "Leap Year Babies", has come 'to mean those who have been unfortunate enough to have been born on that extra day in February which comes only once every four years. They are con- sidered unfortunate because peo- ple born February 29 can celebrate a legitimate birthday only one quarter as often as other folk. This year, there were no Leap Year Babies born in Clinton Public Hospital. There were no babies born in the leesl hospital on Feb- ruary 29 in 1952 or' 1956 either. Mrs. J. E. MacDonald, operator of Clinton Nursing Home, had her 12th real birthday on Monday.
