and the Huron Fish and Game
Conservation Association have
done for the people of Clinton and
district, They, along with the
'Lions Club and Kinsmen supsnied
both the money and man-.power
to build the community swimming

leave_ out the private citizens of
the community who also contrib-
uted.
These clubs have also sponsored
minor sports in this town for sev-

would be a good idea if these
clubs were to give us a full ac-
count of the fine work they have
been doing.

WHAT NEXT- DR. PECK — In
reminiscing about the days when
he was fresh out of Medical
School, Dr. JoSeph Peck gives -a
vivid - and vastly interesting ac-
count of life in-the early days of
Utah. About 50 years ago he
signed on •as physician with a .con-
struction gang building a railinad
into a mining section of that state,
He- used his medical knowledge
and skill to help all sorts and
conditions' of men and women who
usually gravitate to settlements on
a new frontier. In return he finds
he learned a great deal from some
of the most unlikeliest of charact-
ers. Very good reading.
A LITTLE WIDOW IS A DAN-
GEROUS THING — Helen King
Hastings.. The author's husband
died aeew months before- their
son was ready' to enrol at college.
Because of her independent nature
and the propensity of "Floridians"
to yarn to tourists, she soon had
the reputation fontloing wonderful

things, for instance, her alleged
ability to bulldog cattle, when she
claims it was only, one small calf.
The nteighbours were convinced
that all she needed was to marry
again, and she ehowed her dex-
terity, in evading "Cousin Peter".
Her lively sense of humor helped
her at all times as she dealt with
the various difficulties, 'the ques-
tionable assistance of some of the
cowhanclg, ..peesistent suitors and
some of the neighbottrs.
DOCTOR AND SON—Richard
Gordon. Another item ofe fun and
nonsense byt the author of "Doc-
tor in the House's and "The Cap-
tain's, Table". This is just the
type of book to help you forget
that the weather is stormy and
miserable.
THE DARKNESS AND THE
DAWN—Thomas B. Costain, Life"
in sixth century Europe, as im-
agined by Costain, takes us from
the rural plateau, country of cen-
tral Europe to the luxury of Ro-
man palaces.. The main characters
of the story are Attila, Nicolan,
Aetius, Ildico and Harthager, the
"king" of the horses raised 'on the
plateau. It is the story, told in
detail, of Attila's plans to sack
Rome and become the master of
all the world. Nieolan, the hero,
is sold into slavery in his 'teens,
escapes from Rome, serves Attila
until the accelitance of •Christian-
ity makes him decide to lead a
different life, if possible. The
jealousy and greed' of a neighbour,
of his youth is almost his undoing.
Ildico, the golden haired daughter
of his father's friend, remains in
his thoughts and when he learns
that Attila will not, be satisfied
until he has the fair Ildico as his
bride, plans her safe -escape with
the ever, helpful Widow of Ter-
geste. Nicolan is supported in
most of his desperate moments by
Ivar, the Briton. Although Cos-
tain introduces, here and there,
slight modern touches that seem
alien to the times, it is a grand
historical pageant on a wide
screen, set downs'in the dramatic
language of a master story-teller.
