That men with the piece of chalk in each hand hae just informed me that the tem, Peretere 14 15 below.. He didn't have to. My arthritis had ale ready given me the message. 'These .ere the gray days of deep Midwinter, when one is sorely tempted to get drunk, or take off for Tahiti, solo, or just wander off and lie Owe quietly in a snowbank. There's only one thing that saves my sanity each winter. That is the certainty that there are several months of exciting evenings of contro- versial conversation ahead. Every winter I feel sorry for people in lush, tropical countries. What in the world can they find to talk about? How bored they must become With nothing tp mull over but love, religion, politics and the heat! No wonder they're so emotionally trigger-happy, so prone to revolutions, just to break the monotony. * We Canadians, besides being the healthiest, happiest, richest and best-looking people in the world, are surely also the most eloquent conversa- tionalists in existence. We are never so destitute of conver- sational gambits that we have to fall back on such hackneyed themes as art, the soul, love, or man's inhumanity to man. Never. For six months of the year we discourse brilliantly on fishing, The Boat, babies., The Cottage, gardening, The Car. The last-mentioned, of course, appears as often in our dia- logue as deity does in that of less favored races. But it is in the other six months, the winter, that we really come into our own, conversationally. D u r i n g the long black nights, listen in on almost any conversation in our land, and you will marvel at the intricacies of intellect, the subtleties of expression, the rapier-like par r y and thrust of our communication. * * A foreigner is baffled and charmed by the sparkling quality of our colloquy. A Cana- dian midwinter conversation would make Socrate s sulk, Plato pout. At the bridge table, cards are forgotten when the conver- sation begins to bubble like vintage champagne. In the pub, beer is left untouched on the table. What, you may ask, is the essence that makes Canadian converse so rich and heady in the winter? Let's listen in and find out. We'll drop in on a typical January party, in an average home, where are gathered beauty and chivalry, fair women and brave men. Typical Canadians, in short. Hark to this young matron, her simple dignity and warmth of countenance scarcely marred by the purple eyelids and slight double chin. "We like the oil, cuz y' don't hafta fool with it. Just set 'er and she stays the way y' want 'er. A course, the minit I turn it up a bit, Jim runs Over and turns it down. Says ruin us." Giggling. Speaks with courtly grace the gentleman on her left. "Ali, you can have that oil. Stoo ex- pensive. Girnme the good Ole hard coal, with a man that knows howta hannel that fur- nace. I mean y' get that real hot heat." Superciliously. "Yee, butcha, gotta have a good fan, or she doesn't kick that heat around," says the demure little woman across from him. "We like the stoker ourselves. George useta puff something terrible when he had to shovel, but now he duzzen even hafta go down, only every Coupla days, so it gives 'm more time ta. help 'tha dishes." ' Winking gaily at the hapless George. "Saycha like," contributes another young gallant, leaning across, "but take wood. Sk little more Work, but she's quick an' she's hot, An' ya never liana. worry about strikes, cuz the earniere never go on strike." Triuniphently. See us before you buy! WIN SIXTH STRAIGHT Downing Seaforth Towners on Lucan ice Friday gave the Lucan-Ilderton Combines their sixth consecutive triumph in Big Eight action. Led by a pair of markers from the stick of winger Barry Hearn, the Combines jumped into an early lead which they never relinquished. Don Fletcher opened the scoring half-way through the initial period, with Stu O'Neil and lerbshott assisting. Goals be, Dusty Aldis, Ken Loft and Hearn in the first ten minutes of the middle ses- sion put the Combines into a commanding 4-0 lead. Coming back with three quick counters within three minutes of action, put the Towner s within striking distance at the con- clusion of the second period. Ken Doig, Jack Mcllwain and Bill McLaughlin were on the firing end of this trio of mar- kers. Bob Doig fired home the final Seaforth score late in the clos- ing frame, after the L-1 boys had gained a four-goal margin on the strength of accurate marksmanship by Stu O'Neil, Harry Wraith and BarryHearn. HAWKS SPLIT PAIR. Centralia Hawks under the tutelage of Gord "Curly" Ebel split their pair of Big Eight contests this past week. Coming up with a solid per- formance, the Hawks tem- porarily moved into sixth spot with a 4-2 decision over Mit- chell Red Devils on Eketer ice Thursday. Exeterite Jim McDonald not- ched Centralia's first counter of the night in the initial frame at 18.40, to even the score after Bill Chessel had given the visitors a temporary margin. Ray Johnson gave the airmen a 2-1 first period lead with a well earned marker as tittle was running out. The teams added a goal each in the second. Sonny Burke registered for the home ChM and veteran Charlie Westman re- plied for the boys from Perth County. In the closing stanza, Claud Atidet scored on a neat effort to give the fliers a Well-earned victory. Playing in Clinton S unda y of ter noon, the Hawks were grounded 6-4 by the Thunder-. bolts.
