Three very tiny girls had

very sweet, but little three-year-

present when she sang alone
“Jesus Loves Me”. Though still
unable to talk plainly she was
able to follow the tune and sang
out so she could be heard at the
rear of the big auditorium.
The guest speaker was Walter
Creery of Woodham, a graduate
of the O.A.C., and >a nephew of
the president. He gave a splendid
address on the “Upper Thames
Valley Authority”, telling of the
wonderful work they have al-
l'eady accomplished and of their
plans for the future. He spoke
at length on the aims and pur
poses of the Fanshaw Dam and
briefly on the dams at St. Marys,

“There is nothing so bad but

residents of Lucan as they saw
their public school, with all its
equipment, records, teachers’ and
pupils’ personal belongings, and
so many things which can never
be replaced, go up in smoke on
Thursday morning, March 12.
Had the fire started two hours
later lives might have been lost.
As it was, by the time the care
taker phoned for the fire-engine,
the place was so filled with
smoke he .had to grope his way
out. Nothing is left now of the
63-year-old school hut the four
