The annual Christmas Seal sale
been launched by the Huron County
Tuberculosis Association, This year it
i« hoped that the people of Huron
County will be especially generous in
their support.
The money raised from the sale of
Christmas Seals is spent on the TB
program in the county. Last year over
$3000 was spent in providing referred
clinics. At the present time financial
assistance is being given a young man
who is taking a radio course after
leaving the sanatorium. The associa
tion is planning to set up a film lib
rary in Huron for TB education. Ad
ditional funds will be required for the
mass X-ray scheduled for May 1956.

JUST
THOSE GLASSES?
People who wear glasses should al
ways take special care of these aids
to sight. They are usually fairly ex
pensive and carrying them around in
pocket or purse won’t help to keep
them in good condition. The lens may
be scratched or the frames cracked
or bent out of alignment and the fo
cus distorted. It is little trouble to
replace them in their proper case
when not in use.

Ladies’ bonspiel on Friday, Novem

ed that the rink was not as spic and

The mixed curling got away to a
good start with 24 of the mixed vari
ety attending. The curlers from
Lloyds proved that they could get the
best shots from their rinks and Don
and Wilf were easy winners. Was nice
to see Eva Bain back at it again after
resting up for a year. The lay-off did
not detract from her former skill as
a player, Mary Williams gave signs
of becoming an expert and may some
day defeat her mother-in-law who is
one of the originals.

Looks like the Wingham Mohawks

Next week is the big one since the
main three-day ’spiel starts on Wed
nesday and continues through Friday.
Both Alex Crawford and Fred David
son are entering rinks. Who knows
but they may win the beautiful troph
ies which each so generously donated.
The Western Foundry has entered a
rink and will be strong competitors
for the main event, the’Western Foun
dry Trophy. The personnel of the rink
’is a deep secret but our scouts indi
cate that Murray, Casey and Tom will
be in there for sure and as a dark
horse (not Tom), Ed. Small may be
enticed back for one more bonspiel.
This rink will bear watching, espec
