It might be called the "safe" group, for its hybrids will mature well over most parts of these two counties, In the Wallacebnrg area they should be considered as full season hybrids, The early hybrids require zi sea- sots to mature in the northern- and eastern fringes of the husking corn area. In other sections of the area they have a place when late planting is necessary, Hybrids in the very early group have no place in the husking corn area, but are of definite value for grain purposes in Central and Eastern Ontario. When hybrids are grown for ensil- age, those of the late group will be most satisfactory throughout southern Ontario, while those of the medium or early group are best adapted for the central and eastern parts of the province. MORRIS Held Social Evening The first line of Morris !Group of the Jamestown War Workers held a very enjoyable social on Friday even- ing, February 5th at the home of Mr, and Mrs, It J. McLennan. Eleven tables of Progressive Euchre were played, after which Mrs. Carl John- ston called everyone to order and pre- sented the prizes. 1st prize of War Savings Stamps went to Elizabeth Brewer and R. J. McLennan and the Consolation prize to Wilda Brecken- ridge and Ross Abram. The leader of the group, Mrs, Ward Gray, acted as chairman., and introduced the presi- dent of the Jamestown War Workers, Mrs. Fleming Grainger. She outlined the work of the group stating over $1,000.00 had been raised during 1942, also $25,00 being donated to the "Can- adian. Aid-to-Russia Fund", also wool- len blankets being sent to the Worthy Seamen and other needy causes. The main feature of the evening being an Auction Sale of parcels being -donated by members of the group. Mr, David Johnston in his jovial manner, made a very capable Auctioneer with Mrs. Spatting Johnston as clerk. The terms of sale being cash. The parcels con- sisted of wearables, tearables, break- ables, washables, vegetables, eatables and solubles. Prices ranged high and the splendid sun: of $16.00 was real- ized from the silver, collection and proceeds from sale. Lunch was serv- ed by the hostess, being assisted by Mrs. Addison Fraser. The group would like to thank all those who assisted in anyway to make the evening such a grand success.

Havens and was banished near the- first of the period and before he wasik, back on the ice Yoeman and Havens had a clash and were given two min- utes. Things settled down for five minutes then Bell boarded Havens and off lie went, There was a few min- utes of smart hockey, then the Sepoy's had their scoring streak of four goals- with tithe off after the first two for the fight. There were disputes over the last two goals. The last one a Lucknow player was on his knees practically in the net and on the other one the play- ers claimed it was not over the line.

They are all on the present recommended list of hybrids, and the 1942 tests show no other hybrids with sufficient, merit to replace them. Because they are not confined to one maturity group, but to all, the grower has an ppartunity to select one or more which will meet the needs of his part- icular locality• or purpose, Here is a list of hybrids which have made a particularly - fine showing in the tests:— Late Group; Funks G15; Pione 322; DeKaib 404A; Canada 696. Medium Group: Dekalb 240; can da 606; Canada 645. Early Group: Pioneer 355; Canada 531. Very Early Group: Canada 270; Canada 3545. The Canada hybrids have the same percentage as the 1Visconsin hybrids. bearing the same number,. e.g., Can- ada 606 and Wisconsin 606 have the sante parent inbred lines, They differ only in that the Canada hybrids are wholly processed- in. Canada, front the maintenance of The inbred lines to the cross, under the high standards matt in the rules and regulations of to. Canadian Seed Growers' Associa- tott. These standards guarantee that. Ontario produced seed is of the high- est quality. Hybrids of the late group are grown extensively- Throughout Essex ante Kent counties for grain purposes. They require :a full season to reaelt" safe maturity, and therefore late seed- lug should be avoided. The-popular- 'ity which they have gained is due largely to their high. yielding capacity. . In Kent ourtly they should be con. fined to the most favoured areas. • The Ict WWII 000 it Widely adap ST. HELENS Her many friends were sorry to learn that Mrs, Thos.

A little more than a year later fleas marked bird was recovered at Bonavista Harbour, Newfoundland, by Dr. `Blair, a fisherizs expert. Two previous cases of Kittiwakes making the Murmansk to Newfound- land crossing are on record in The museum. One was recovered only three months after it lied been marked ynd liberated. Apparently this route, from Northern Russia to Newfound- land, is as well established for Kitti- - alz.es as it is for totreoys. Thomas was rather thrifty.

Edgar was "fit to be tied' and only the inter- vention of his team-mates prevented a burst of fisticuffs. Rayraie Bell also added a bit of pep to proceedings in this frame and after the feminine fans along the rail had heckled him through 50 minutes of hockey he did a "Phut in der furher's face" with gestures and referee Mel Riggin of Kincardine gavO him a five minute misconduct with the admonition that it was alright to do thumb to the nose but not when lie was looking, Despite their advantage Kincardine failed to tally. Kincardine took the ice against Alf Lockridge'S charges with only nine men and they showed well gainst superior numbers. McLeod for Wing- ham was outstanding and his good work in the nets had a lot to do with victory. Kincardine drew first blood at five minutes when Linklater counted from Morrison and Henry on a scramble in front of the net. Raymond Bell drew two minutes in the sin bin and on his return Pym gave Brown a perfect pass and the latter went in fast to tie the count. It was a beautiful shot from thirty feet out, sailing like a bullet and lodg- ing out of Kirkconnell's reach. Riggin ended the period for Kincardine by freely using his knee, d'rawin-g a pen- alty. In the second frame Wingliam prese" sect front the opening 'bell but it took eight minutes of slap bang hockey be- fore they wilted and Kincardine jumped to the advantage with Harri- son passing to Billy Bell for the Kin- cardine leading marker. Yeoman went off for a trip much to his disgust, later learning that he had 'been the victim of circumstance and Bell should have ,done penance. Strap!), husky Kin- cardine defenseman was injured 'and taken to the dressing room leaving Kincardine team with eight men. Later he came back 'only to be men. Later he came back only to be on the receiving end of a sound body whack which rendered him hors de combat. Immediately Wingham again pressed and Jack Pym carried the puck out to give Ernest a goal from the left channel, Bob Chittick got his stick in be- tween flying feet and did two minutes for his error. As the period ended Riggin of Kincardine was sent off for the second time of the night. It was in the third that the crowd was given little chance to rest on their benches and it was-in this canto that Wingham notched their two tallies.1 Seven minutes had elapsed when Templeman got into a mixup in front-) of the goal but succeeded, in passing out to Belt who scored. Bell did a nose dive at the net but was able to tontiette after the removal of "first alders" from his side. Two minutes later Hilbert made victory certain when he gave Lloyd a swell set up for the fourth: goal. Kincardine, lagging behind turned on the heat with Link- later and Billy Bell turning in some -choke hockey. It was in one of these fast plays that Edgar tripped Link- later and the penalty shot . followed without success. Final penalties went to R. Bell and Lloyd but 'victory was beyond grasp of Kincardine and Alf. Lockridge led a victorious Wingham juvenile team from the ice. Those who saw Winghani and Kin- cardine in action are high in their praise of the entertainment provided and when. these two teams match up . on the 23rd there should be a real crowd on hand.

The line of Albert, George and Bill Chin accounted for all ten goals scored by Pelt McCoy's Sepoys, It was a treat to watch these lads in. action, The game was fast for Juvenile class but Alf's Papooses did not seem to really hit their stride and lacked the finish they displayed at Kincardine. They will do much better before the schedule is over. To make it more interesting for the fans a fight broke out with only three minutes left to play. The players mixed eit up with several different fights going on at one time. The spectators jumped the boards and en- tered the free for all whcili did not Help to settle things down. Lockridge• and Purvis were banished after the smoke cleared away. The first period ended with a score of 3,1 with the Sepoy's on the long end. A. Chin opened the scoring on a pass from brother George but Yeo- man evened it up with the help of Bill and Templeman. George Chin shot from behind the net and the puck was deflected past McLeod. The last goal of the period was scored by Bill Chin who swooped the puck from be- hind into the net. Sticks were a bit high, Haven and Lockridge were sent- enced for roughing it up. The second period was just a min- ute tinder si,ay when Bill Chin took brother Ab's pass to notch another. Wingham worked hard and Bell scor- ed one from a scramble. Templeman and Yeoman taking part in the play. The Sepoys banged in two more, Bill and Al Chin taking the honors before Templeman scored for the Papooses. The period ended with Lucknow leading 6-3.
