he did not have an accident of any
kind at any time. Al Ie had a clean
record in every resp'ect except that lie
was fined for going 40 miles in the
Corporation of Orangeville. He feels
that this was not warranted as he
thought he was outside the town limits
as there are no buildings in that part.
During the time Mr. Higgins was
with the Bluevale Creamery heswas in

had learned with regret that Lion
George Northwood was leaving town.
He reviewed the various activities' of
Lion George in the town as a mem-
ber of the High School Board, time
Legion, the Presbyterian' Church and
the Lions Club. He was a highly re-
spected citizen and this was shown by
the action of his superiors in giving
him such a fine promotion by moving
liirn to the Dunnville Branch of the
Bank of Commerce. He hoped that
when Lion George was resting in his
den in Dunnville he would recline in
this chair which the Club took great

his life because of the fine fellowship
of the Lions Club, which he felt truly
represented the citizens of Wingham.

of men and was glad to be a member.
The singing in the Club had been a
pleasure to -him. He regretted pulling
up stakes and moving along and he
wished to express to Lion Clayton
Gammage of the Dominion Bank the
pleasant business relations which had
existed. He stated that Lion Clayton
was a gentleman of the highest -order
and a good friend and while they were
competitors in business, mutual good
will had always existed between them,
He found it hard to move to a eew
field but he hoped to find congenial
friends in Dunnville. He thanked all
the Lions for the many. kind things
done for him. He had written to Lion
Bob Spittal in England and when the
reply came back he would be glad to
forward it to the Club,

fine cooperation shown by Lion
George to him. He felt that Lion

MICK SCHOOL. IS
DOING FINE WORK
, —
Has Raised Much Money For
Patriotic Purposes
The Members of S.S, No. 4, Howick
and their teacher, Mrs.' Mable Allen
have every right to our ,heartiest con-
gratulations upon the success of their
efforts displayed in the hall here on
Friday night, which to date, from the
nights show alone, swelled' their al-
ready large contributions to the Jun-
ior Red'Cross,
S, S. No. 4 has the largest number
of pupils in the township, and its a
safe bet, the largest rural school
throughout the inspectorate of Mr.
Game, of Walkerton, having 36 at
present on the roll, with the -number
being increased by another half dozen
or more at Easter.
To their teacher we give great
praise. Handling this number of chil-
dren at a little country school is some-
what of a problem. This she 'has
solved by having the pupils do their
manual training during the recess and
noon hour, which was exhibited and
auctioned off at their big affair,
This got under way with a euchre,
with'Gibson Vogan and Mrs. "Sandy"
Edgar winning 1st prizes, followed 'by
several games of bingo. During lunch
tickets were drawn on a quilt and
went to Mrs, George Lane, Belmore.
The guinea fowl, upon which tickets
were sold went to I3eryl Bennett, a
pupil of the school and whose fine
patriotic Spirit prompted her to turn
them in again and Mr. John Dinsmore
the auctioneer on the job, brought an-
other $1.60 from Mr. E. J. Parrish,
The jar of strawberries was won by
the lucky ticket of Bobby Steurnol
with Donald. Farr winning the ticket
on the sox.
When the air had cleared after this,
the auctioneer went to work on the
articles for sale And made by these
energetic youngsters, and as we said,
to date they have realized $316 from
the proceeds on Friday night and the
tickets on the gander still on sale,

In a recent article in the Canadian
Medical Journal, Group Captain Fred-
erick 'F, Tisdall, nutrition advisor to
the R,C.A.I?„ stated that' while inter-
viewing a number of Canadian and
R.CA.F, personnel repatriated from
enemy prison camps in. Britain lagt
november, all had paid glowing tribute
to the •1 Canadian Red Cross food
Parcels.
Many of the men stated that they
were sure they would• not have lived
without the Red Cross food parcels.
Some who did, not, receive any parcels
for• two or three months in the fall of
1941 were said to he so weak that they
would collapse when they got out of
bed,
The repatriates, when examined .by
him, were in excellent nutritional con-
dition, stated Captain Tisdall. They
had the appearance of well-fed men
with no visible effects of malnutrition
and all stated that they "felt fine,"
Interviews with these Canadian
servicemen has establihed the fact
that the long hours of preparation in
designing these parcels early in the
war by outstanding nutrition experts
have been well worth while. Every
item of food contained in the 11-
pound' Red Cross parcel was carefully
chosen to supply 'diet deficiencies in
enemy prison fare.
"The one-pound tin of butter receiv-
ed first place in the comments of the
men," Captain Tisdall said. —rh6 tin
of ,powdered milk was also one of the
most desired articles and was used in
tea, as a straight milk drink, or, mixed
with chdcolate and sugar as a choco-
late milk .shake."
Favourable comment was made by
the repatriates on the meat, and fish
content of the Red Cross parcels,
particularly the solid meat which
could be chewed. Salmon and sar-
dines, included 1 or their pdotein con-
tent, were also very acceptable.
Hard, white "pilot biscuits", chosen
for their storage qualities, although in-
cluded with some doubts as to their
acceptability, were surprisingly well
received, stated Captain Tisdall. The
prisoners spread •them with butter,
cheese or jam and they were also
broken 'into crumbt to thicken soup,
However, the most popular way to use
them was to cook them in milk and
then fry them in butter to make "the
most delicious pancakes 'you ever
tasted".
The enemy prison fare, which these
Reds Cross parcels supplemented, con-
:Mated mostly of potato and black
bread, vegetables such as turnip, beets
and occasionally carrots, The amount
of meat issued was very small, with
blood sausage supplied once or twice
each week. Limburger cheese was
issued but "passed up" by nearly
everyone and the jam, apparently
made largely from turnips, was eaten
by only a few. Tile synthetic bever-
age which passed as neither tea nor
coffee was undrinkable.
The contents of two Red Cross
prisoner-of-war boxes are on display in
the Hydro Shop window.
The 'Canadian Red Cross is asking
for $10,000,000 this year, of which al-
most 40 per cent will be used for
prisotier-of-war food parcels,: Give
generously' and help bring our Cana-
dian lads home in good shape to start
life anew. Wingham has a quota of
$6,500 which is $500 more than last

Beautiful sunshine, a reminder of
God's goodness, with its message of
faith and hope, greeted the women of
Wingham, who set out to meet to-
gether on Friday afternoon to , take
part in the Women's World Day of
Prayer, held this year in the Salvation
Army Hall, where a goodly number
gathered.
The programme suggested by the
Inter-board committee of the Wo-
men's Missionary Socities of Canada
was followed and hearts were poured
out in prayers of repentance, praise
and intercession, bringing a sense of
oneness with God and with each other.
Remembered before God were those
who suffer or serve because of war,
for our leaderS,. for all who have
momentous decisions to make and for
those' who carry overwhelming bur-
dens, "Moses arms grew heavy Aaron
and Her stayed his hands till the bat-
tle was won" we read in the Scrip-
tures. So also must we support and
invoke Divine guidance for those who
must play a great and vital part in the
world struggle in which we are en-
gaged. For we know that we fight in
this war and in peace time also against
forces rattler than against peoples.
We fight against spiritual wickedness.
These forces of evil must be met by
righteous, spiritual and moral forces
as well as material forces,
Representative women of the local
Protestant Churches took leading
parts in audible prayer and responsive
exercises. Miss Betty Lewis brought
a message in .sacred song entitled,
"Nearer My God to Thee" which was
well sung.
The special speaker was Mrs. Kea-
neth MacLean of the Presbyterian
church, who based her interesting and
helpful address on the immortal words
of Jesus "Follow Me", The meeting
was brought to a close by the singing
of the hymn "The Day Thou Gayest
Lord is Ended" and all dispersed feel-
ing (glad that the privilege 'was theirs
of joining an innumerable company of
prayer women the world over,
This Women's World Day of Prayer
Was started in the United States of
America over fifty, years ago, and
nearly twenty-five years ago the Can-
adian Women joined. our American
sisters. Since 1927 it has been recog-
nized and carried out as a World Day
of Prayer, and each year new thous-
ands join is Observing it. Women in
over fifty countries rejoice fit the op-
ortunity it brings and look forward
to it, Last year in .Ctmade, almost
2000 groups reported having, tract and
there were doublidess others.

Ounces Per Person
The Prices Board announced a
"temporary" reduction in Canada's.
butter ration in March by postponing
the dates upon which two butter ration.
coupons become valid,
Board officials said the reduction
per persOn for March will amount to
eight ounces, effected by postponing
the dates of coupons 54 and 55, which
normally would become valid March
16, to March 23 and March 30, respec.
tively, Thereafter, until further notice
coupons will become valid at intervals
of one week. At present. coupons
are valid in pairs every two weeks.
Each coupon is good for eight
ounces of !butter.
The announcement said the reduc-
tion in the ration, resulting from de-
creased production in November, De-
cember and January, will mean a sav-
ing of 5,000,000 pounds, equivalent to
one week's normal ration allowance.
Production .during November, De-
cember and January was about ,.5,400,-
000 pounds below that of the corres-
pondent period a year ago. The

payments which .tliverted milk from
butter production to cheese production.
Mater quotas to hotels, restaurants
and other eating places will he reduced
along' with the household ration.
