Plan to move school plaques One of the main topics under discussion last Wednesday night when the executive of the Bid- dulph Area Parents and Teach- ers' Association, met in the Lu- can PS was what to do with the Gr. 8 Lucan plaques, now that Lucan is a Jr. school. It was suggested they be moved to the Biddulph Central school and used for the Gr. 8 classes there from both Lucan and Biddulph. If anyone in the Lucan com- munity has any objection to this arrangement, they may attend the next meeting of the associa- tion in the Biddulph C entr al school Wed. evening Feb. 22 and voice his or her objection. An interesting program has been lined up for this meeting, featuring a discussion on the benefits of an Opportunity Class. At the last meeting 35 mem- bers paid the family enrolment fee of $1.00. It is hoped many more will enrol on the 22nd, March being Education Month, the speaker will be Mr. L. B. Hyde former vice principal of the London Teachers' College and a former PS Inspector.

EXECUTIVE MEETING Plans were discussed for the making of costumes for the Fig- ure Skating Ice Revue, to be held in the Lucan Arena, March 8 at the meeting of the Legion Aux- iliary last Tuesday night.

James Freeman, manager of the Lucan Hydro Commission, caused quite a stir in the village when he used a snow Cruiser belonging to Alan Scott, chair- man of the Commission to read the meters. There had been several very heavy falls of snow just at the time that the meters were to be read. The roads were bad and the yards around the homes were piled high with that white cold stuff. "The only way to read Meters," says Jim, as he saved a day and a half of walking through almost hip high snow. Anyone who has to be out in the winter knows what it Is like to wade through snow, Imagine gliding over the tops of the huge snow drifts and driving right up to the meter, There wasn't even any trouble with dogs as they were afraid of the machine, The only problem with the snow cruiser, the Manager tells us, is the customers all wanted to go for a ride. One customer told this writer that she felt like stealing the cruiser while Jim was reading her meter.

MONARCH ASSORTED Horsemen hold dinner Nearly 100 members of the London Horsemanship Club, from as far away as Sarnia and Guelph braved last Friday's icy roads to attend the annual banquet and social evening in the Lunen Com- munity Centre. Mr, R. R. Crozier, of Lucan, president of the club presided and the ladies of the Arena Board catered for the banquet. Music for the dance, which followed the dinner and awards, was provided by the Wally Hawthorne's Or- chestra of London. The club is a chartered fam- ily membership organization, de- voted to the improvement of hors- es and horsemanship. Each sum- mer, the club holds three horse shows in the Hyde Park area for its members. No prize money is awarded but a trophy is given for the horse, in each category, with the most points at the end of the third show. Most of the riders are young and aspiring, so this club pro- vides their entrance into open and more competitive shows. Mr. Crozier and his two daughters, Jane and Susan, are Lucan's re- presentatives of the club.
