However they are still yery active, strong group with about 60 members. The following sisters are of- ficers for the 1973 - 74' season: Past President, Rosemary Hor- ner; President, Doreen Willis; Vice-President, Marilyn Feagan; Recording Secretary, Connie Connelly; Secretary- Treasurer, Audrey Kernighan; Chaplain, Florence Robinson; Warden, Kay Baer; Conductor, Barbara Hawkins; Inner Guard, Agnes Moon; Outer Guard, Dorothy Sowerby; District-Deputy, Phyllis Harrison; High Marshal, Isabel Sturdy. Three very successful dances have been held in co-operation with the men's lodge, Court Benmiller, in April, August and November. Fifteen members gave of their time to collect in the rural area during the Can- cer Campaign. An amount of about $450, was turned in to the Huron County Cancer Society at that time. Donations were also made to the Bunny Bundle and to a Forester Park in Belwood District. Canadian mint sets were awarded to High proficiency students at Colborne Central School and at Holmesville Public School - At Colborne, to Lisa Whitely and Bill Durst; at Holmesville to Joanne McClin- chey and Keith McClennan. A happy time was had by both courts at a summer bar- becue supper in July. Also about this time, money was given by Court Fascination to send a child to the Retarded Children's Camp. The Court Fascination Ball Trophy for teams made up of girls 13 to 16 in the Colborne League, was won by the Bombers coached by Bonnie Westbrook. Thanks goes to several members of both lodges for the interest taken in helping and coaching the teams of the 'league. Nineteen members from the two courts attended the District Council at Alliston held in November. Sister Doreen Willis was fortunate enough to have won a quilt of Forester design made by one of the courts in that area. Court Fascination, as well as all other Forester lodges, are mainly concerned with donations to Cancer Research, but, at the Christmas season, special gifts are made to the Children's Aid Society, the Retarded Adult Workshop, and the Goderich Psychiatric Hospital. It might be of interest to some to know that the Provin- cial Flower Crests at the Maitland Country Club were Kris loved her parakeet, Bluey. He would come out of his cage and sit on her finger. When she played her records, he danced for her. But then someone left the door open, and Bluey flew away. At first it was fun being free to fly wherever he wanted, But then it was getting dark. And Bluey was lost! He flew up one street and down another, looking for his home. Then he heard some music. It sounded just like the records Kris used to play. So Bluey flew straight in the open door of a night club. He fluttered down onto an empty table and started to dance. People began to smile and laugh. The manager took a napkin and tried to shoo the parakeet away. But everybody said, "No, let him dance!" So they turned the spotlight on the table, and all the people watched Bluey dance. Each night Bluey danced at the night club, and people came from all around to see him. One evening Kris and her parents drove by. a w All Grade "A" "kii.

This project is to be completed in the near future so that all the provinces are represented, Quite a few mem- bers take an active part in curling at the Maitland Club. A thriving bowling league is also on schedule for each Sun- day evening, Both Courts Fascination and Benmiller are involved in these sports, Both lodges are looking for- ward to the annual Christmas party to be held at the Lodge hall which, by the way, used to be the little red school house but is now the little white hall, having been covered this sum- mer with white siding by the in- dustrious members of Court Benmiller. Kris saw the picture by the door and cried, "That's Bluey!" She jumped out of the car and dashed into the night club. As soon as Bluey saw her, he hopped up onto her finger. Kris's father explained to the manager, and Kris got her lost parakeet back again. But every Saturday night they took Bluey back to dance for all the people again.

SMILE The two men were sitting at a bar. One was very downcast, and the other was simply bored with his friend's sorrow. "My wife doesn't appreciate me," said the sad fellow. "Does yours?" "I wouldn't know," said the bored one. "I've never heard her mention your name," DR.
