No. 2, Hay, on Friday evening of last week was a most successful affair, the pro­ ceeds amounting to $190.00. A fine program was given with Reeve George Armstrong of Hay, a former pupil, acting as chairman. Frank Taylor auctioned off the boxes and about $120.00 was received. Fol­ lowing lunch, dancing was enjoyed to Flannigan’s orchestra. A quilt, donated by Mrs. James Geddes, for which tickets were sold, was won by Florence Dunsford. The quilt realized almost $65.00. A second quilt, donated by Mrs. Nelson Stan- lake, was sold by auction to Wil­ liam Ellerington for $12.00. GIRLS OF C.G.I.T. GATHER 250 LBS. OF FATS FOR EXPLOSIVES Will supply enough glycerine 250 pounds of dynamite; or pounds of smokeless power; or will fire 3750'0- rounds from a light ma­ chine gun, or 25 00 rounds from a 50 calibre airplane cannon; or 250 rounds from a light anti-aircraft gun; or 125 aircraft shells; or 21 rounds from heavy aircraft gun; or 80 rounds from a field gun. Do you see how absolutely necessary it is that every ounce of fat should be saved. The Exeter C.G.I.T. girls got the idea. They have friends in the forces. They want the world kept safe—so that living for them might be a decent, wholesome thing in the years to come. They did not stop with the idea. They put it into prac­ tice. In one day they, collected 250 pounds of fat, and we hope we taught the people of Exeter a lesson —that the saving of fat is a neces­ sary war service. That fat is now on the way to make munitions of war, and some day those girls will know that the fat fought for them their homes and families. Save 9fats! for 375 and your EL1MV1LLE Mrs. P.

The bride’s only attendant was her sister, Ruby Gaiser, of London, who wore a street-length dress of rose with white trim and brown ac­ cessories and carried a bouquet of spring flowers.
