She was one of a family of 13,
seven boys and six girls. A sister,
Mrs. Lucas, of Atwood, is now

patch quilts, one 'a checker quilt
and the other • a flower garden,
doing all the work by hand.

News of
Kirkton
' By MRS. FRED HAMILTON Let’s Settle It Now
. Only six weeks remain in the
schedule and these will probably
be the most crucial of the season.
’ While the Spare Parts and the
Applejacks should finish in one
, of the playoff spots with any luck
at all, they have not yet assured
a chance at the Kist Cup. As far
as we know, the top team in each
division will playoff for the
award but the number of games
and Mrs. involved has never been stated
definitely.
----- . , , . ... . The playoff problems that several days last week with her■ hould be settled are many. it
son, Mr. William Switzei, in was suggested at the first of th$
Stratford. season that the top four teams inMiss, Norma Tufts is spending each division meet and that the
’ , teams not involved would play a
round for a consolation prize.
Last year ties in the final
standing were settled by match
ing total pins without handicap
of the teams involved.
The executive has never had a
meeting on any of these subjects
since the first of the season. It’s
about time our lethargic mentors
put their heads together.
