How Olive wows with her red Bair, And look who's perched in the very front row, Why him in a band Well what do you know? He's playing hot trumpet and now is king. Oh boy, what that guy can't do with swing. And get a load of that carefree "toot", And that Paisley tie, and that toot suit. Unless you saw you'd never guess, But it's Bill Galbraith, none the less, Ann VanWyck is a famous name, For-slie is known as the dame Whose torch songs have the world aflutter And cause all wolves to groan. and "Mutter, Oh would that Annie were not wed! But in .elopement she has fled. Now with one man she'll ever stay, Her theme being always "Night and Day". And so we bid a fond adieu To the entertainment world for you. But still the familiar faces come. Of professional people here are some. Jim Coulter is an undertaker Who undertakes to take them under. But now he wonders what in thunder There is in life for a "taker-under". Now sister Helen is a cook. She learned it all from a recipe book. But her bally pea soup it was a sin. It was either too thick or else too thin. But visiting England she quickly found out What making pel soup was all about: Now they all eat her soup and say "Hot-dog", For it's just like an oozing London Fog. And there's George (Dick) Lloyd, who has won his fame At making gum, for shame! for shame! It's made for people going to school And rare's thnteacher it won't fool. You spit it out and watch the clock And in ten seconds it's _hard as rock. And so to your pockets it never sticks; Teachers like it too, and it comes in sticks. But again we observe the scene to change And add once more to our visions range. So across the Seven Seas we go To catch a glimpse_ of people we know. Now here is ,Miss Coultes, whose first name's Louise. She used to catch cold and she used to go sneeze. - But no more does this damsel have trouble, for lo, She has gone to Hawaii where they have no snow. Bill Abraham is a missionary Who went to Africa quite wary. He grew to love the natives though, And took to wife a Ubangi or so. Miss Eileen Dark has dyed her hair, And is no more so white and fair. To South America she has gone To rest upon some Argentine lawn. For long enough she'd walked the lane In sleet and snow, in wind and rain. And when it seemed there was nothing to gain And all her efforts were in vain. And behind the counter of one we see Old Pee Wee Norman, Bernice to thee. The sign that hangs above that- door Is, you guessed it, "The Walker Store". If all these events are quite shocking to know Why there are a couple that won't be found so. For with all due respect, they are what y,ti'd expect , If the facts you'd inspect. If we're wrong, please correct. Our old friend Jean Northorp is hap- pily wed; And over the climate no tear has been shed, For since that great day when she heard the bells chime Her life has been one long summer's- time. And Lois I3ateson has wandered far, For she thinks there is nothing on a par With life Li the primitive, outdoor way; Among northwoods she'll always stay. Doug. Fry has built a little home And settled down °no more to roam. He's in the munitions business now Making Lewis guns, and how. And- remember Marion, dark and serene, She wasn't too fat, and she wasn't too lean, And if for the name you still inquire, It's O'Dwyer, who married a country squire. But this poor man had a tragic fate, With another woman he had a date. Then Marion took some measures dire; Now everyone's saying, "Oh, widow O'Dwyer". Yet wipe away your tears each friend, We're getting very near the end, But first to Old New York we'll go A,nd see who's there that we might know. In The Little Theatre off Times Square Is, Clara Leddy, without a hair. She's playing tke leading role of late In the Seven Keyes To Bald Pate. And down across the border By R. &SCOTT Keeping Hollywood in order Is Clara King, the movie queen; She wanted to sing, she was awfully keen. But they made her act, which is in fact The thing she did with the greateSt tact. But now she has thrown in the towel And hitched up- herself to William Powel. And now the towel we must throw in, For father time with bearded chin Has just appeared in the crystal ball, And holds a sign, "The End-That's All". LIONS CLUB HAD PEPPY MEETING (Continued from page one) liberation, the jury returned and Lion Ron Rae as foreman presented the views of the jury which were approv- ed by the Club. On being granted a chance to speak, Lions French and, Crawford excused themselves on the grounds that the meal they had on that particular evening was a good meal and they secured it free, At the request of the President, Lt. Richard Roberts spoke briefly and stated that the battle at Petawawa was proceeding and he hoped that winter would soon be licked Lion Dr. Red- mond reported that he was glad to get back from Florida. There were sev- eral Lions Clubs in St. Petersburg, but due to illness, he was unable to attend any of their meetings. St. Petersburg was a delightful place in winter and the Chamber of Commerce went to great lengths to see that every comfort was provided for tourists. During the summer season it became very hot and when he left some .ten days ago the temperature rose to 90' in the afternoons There were 30,000 tourists there during the past winter and some 250 Canadians were register-, ed. He had the honour to be elected President of the Canadian Tourist Society for next winter . He told of Mr.. A. M. Crawford's activities in winning most of the bowling honours and remarked that the Union Jack floated along with the American flag at the howling club every day. There. was also a branch of the Canadian Legion at St. Petersburg. He was glad to get back again. Sgt. Stewart Russell spoke briefly. He told of being in Jamaica in 1941 and of the appreciation of the troops when boats came in with parcels and mail from home, The comforts sent to the troops helped so much and he urged all the Lions to keep tip the home front and encourage the men away from home, ; . Lion Dr Ross as Chairman of the War . Services Committee thanked Lion Al, Walker for the use of his truck in moving materials for the Blood Donors' Clinic. Appreciation. was also expressed for the services of Jack Heal. Lion Ron. Rae called a meeting of the Frolic Committee for Monday evening to plan for the cele- bration of july 12th in Wingham Lions Geo. Northwood, Otto Gal- lagher and Clayton Gammage were at- tending the Lions' Luncheon at Har- riston where .Lion Otto Gallagher was guest speaker. It was agreed that these members be counted as present. The closing, song and Lions' roar brought the meeting to a close. They all are studes of Wingham High; We'll tell you of them by and by. And most are grads of forty three That in our crystal ball we see, Among the most famous of this group is Norman Higgins who got the scoop On jitterbugs of world renoun By starting to jive in the old home town, He discovered the life of a hep-cat was grand While listening one night to a hot jive band, When he bashed in his shins on the old stove door, And hopping around, stubbed his toe, what's more. He invented right then the Higgins Jump And went to the big-time from this little dump, - He now is a world-wide authority In the Jam-A-Doodle symphony, His most famous pupil and second wife Is Miss Shirley Chamney of early life. She can really do a jumpin' dance And the Polka too, if she gets the chance. But wait, new sights come into view, And fate, worse luck for me and you, Has changed the scene by measles chance Before dear Shirley starts her dance. But as we look more carefully There still are funny things to see. In fact, we can hardly believe our eyes, For here •is many a big surprise. A dance band leader, a trumpeteer, A torchy leader, of these you'll hear, For they are people we all know well, So now'their story of fame we tell. Craig Armstrong's dance band has a rhythm That has set the dance world in a schism. Some say, "He's good", some say, "He's not." But all agree, "He's awfully hot". This "Crazy Craigy Rhythm" band Draws monstrous crowds throughout the land. But the Maestro's trumpet isn't all That makes for mobs at each dance hall. There's spinster Hingston-ah, lovely grace- ,Doing song and dance in satin arid lace. And Casey Casemore too is there; '"'• Co r. 1943 !.~inn rtatnrat hdicate, Ina World ti A - HALF DOZEN KISSES • AA A NECESSARY 4REErlitig of ONE Intuit 4.114.5204 To kaerftis.f.

And now She is a Caucho's wife, To ride a mule for the rest of her life, Now the moving scene comes close to, home From far across the ocean's foam, And here is Wingham, just as before,. Except that of people there are a few more. And the faces are new, but here and . there Are some people we knew, as the lady mayor, To coin a word, the town's "Mayorctt" Is that dynamic Miss Betty Gannett. And across the street form her big office Is Jack Merghen running the Post Office, He used -to like to play the same, But now he is a little more tame, The chain-stores all have disappeared, And smaller. stores have reappeared, Now they are owned by folks in town.
