BAWLING NEWS iDuo-Therm Automatic -Lighter! Blower. Thermostat. At the second corporate communion and breakfast, held by the men of St. Paul’s Anglican Church last Sunday morning, it was decided that a local chapter of the Brotherhood of Angli can Churchmen should be formed. To implement this a steering committee was named to arrange for a charter and work out other details. Members of the committee are Ralph Seddon, Herbert Fuller and Abner Nethery. The Brotherhood of Anglican Churchmen was formed in 1951 at a conference of laymen of the Diocese of Huron meeting in Windsor, Ontario, In the intervening three years mem bership has grown to 3500. Frank Hallett of London is the diocesan president while officers in the Dean ery of Huron are, president, Dr. W. J. McCabe, Seaforth and first vice-presi dent, Herb Fuller, of Wingham. Last Sunday morning, following Holy Communion and breakfast the men gathered under the chairman ship of Herb. Fuller to hear A. B. Lucas of London, the guest speaker for the morning. Mr. Lucas, who is assistant superintendent of schools in London and president of the Ontario Education Association, spoke to the men on the meaning behind the title Brotherhood of Anglican Churchmen. In a lucid way he pointed out the reasons why each word of the title had been carefully chosen and what responsibility it placed upon each member of the organization. He was introduced by Roy Manuel and thank ed by Abner Nethery. At the 11.00 a.m. service, observing Laymen’s Sunday, Miller Davis and Herbert Fuller read the Scripture lessons, while the rector chose as his sermon subject, “Can Jesus Add Your Name to the List of His Disciples?”.

UNDERWRITERS’ APPROVED PllfflSOII Radio & Electric iPhone 171-J Wingham Huron County’s Cream Producers at their annual meeting in Clinton went on record as unanimously supporting the 58-cent. floor price for butter. The motion was proposed by Gordon Greig, Bluevale, secretary fieldman of the Huron County Feder ation of Agriculture, who as a cream producer “expressed deep concern over any threat of removal of the floor price.” Ask Support Cream producers were advised by W. B. Rettie, Fergus, chairman of the Ontario Cream Producers’ Marketing Board to seek aid from their Provin cial and Federal members of Parlia ment in retaining the floor price. Said Mr. Rettie “The ministers of agri culture across Canada are working for the dairy industry.” A resolution carried unanimously that the Ontario Cream Producers' Marketing, Board ask for a ban on the manufacture and sale of margar-. ine, after it has solicited and received the support of industry and labor. Elected to the 1955 executive as the four voting delegates to the Provincial Cream Producers’ annual meeting in Toronto, were Hume Clutton, Gode rich! Simon Hallahan, Blyth; James Simpson, Kirkton, and Russell Bolton, RR 1, Dublin. Three other official delegates elected to attend the pro vincial meeting were Terrance Hunter, Colborne Township; James Elliott, Turnberry Township; and George Hetherington, Morris Township. Speaker Guest speaker at the meeting was the president of the Ontario Creamery Operators’ Association, Harvey Leslie, Seaforth, who spoke on “Building for the Future of Dairying.” “There is one prime essential in building the dairy industry for the future and that is quality,” he stressed, adding that quality has been mention ed so often that he wonders if it is becoming a matter of “familiarity breeds contempt” and that one may not react as he should to the advice.

The five original members appointed were as follows: Chamber of Com merce, Alf Lockridge; Lions Jack McKibbon; Kinsmen Club, Reid; Legion, DeWitt Miller; ball......................... two the and was understand Alf Lockridge was ap pointed chairman. So far as our town records go this is still the board of directors of the community centre (arena) unless the clubs or organizations have appointed successors to the above members. This board must, according to the act, remain in full charge of the commun ity centre and is responsible for all operations for a period of 25 years. They are to make all rules and fix< all charges pertaining to the operation of the arena. Any change in the set up of the board of ..directors must be approved by the minister of agricul ture. The council may fill any vacancy on the board from among the class of representatives in which vacancy oc curs. Or it may be assumed that in the -case of a vacancy or resignation by a representative of a member club or organization, the said association would recommend another of their members to the town council for ap pointment* and same would be con firmed as a matter of course. It would appear that this board was very active during the fund- raising campaign for artificial ice, etc., but recently has not been so very active, due, I suggest, to the fact that the community centre has been going along nicely and not costing the town money. However, the build ing is still town property and should naturally be looked after and repairs and improvements made when ne cessary. The Wjjpnsibility, of course, is that of the board, and if necessary, 'they should come to the tdwn council for financial aid or other co-operation. I am sure all members of council realize our responsibility to support and help keep-this community centre a going concern. It’s a great asset for. the use and benefit of the whole com munity. We are fortunate to have such an asset. I often feel some of we citizens do not support the projects in this arena as much as we should. Maybe there are too many attractions in our good town, but we must realize this is our’ of money. practically clear of debt, therefore, let’s all be * * centre and assist our board of manag ers and encourage them 'every way possible.
