Legion sponsors public speaking The Lucan Branch of the Royal Canadian Legion is sponsoring a public speaking contest between Lucan, Biddulph and St. Patrick elementary schools.

BIDDULPH CENTRAL SCHOOL Winners of the speaking contest at the Biddulph Central School were as follows: boys, Dennis Wraith, Dave Latta, Jeff Culbert; girls, Johanna Engel, Valerie Leitch, Violet Acres. They will now go on to compete against Biddulph Separate School winners. Lack of interest in Cubs, Scouts Only nine Cubs and two Scouts attended the last meeting. This is very disappointing for the Scoutmasters, Gordon Froats, Tom Barr and others who help. Conflicting interests such as hockey and figure-skating are somewhat to blame, and the increased cost of enrolling may discourage some. It is hoped that some of the boys will renew their interest in the near future as it is good training for them. vice-president, Mrs. M. H. Hodgins; recording secretary, Mrs. A. W.

Langford reading from the Bible, and Mrs. J. A. Young leading in prayer. Mrs. Lewis gave a talk on "Human Rights" which held much interest. Mrs. Frances Saward, on behalf of the Christian Education Committee, asked if the UCW would agree to donate the money necessary for copies of "Parent talk" to be distributed to parents of Sunday School children.
