Howick Lions Sponsored New Venture
New ground was broken ill this dis-
trict last Wednesday night, when the
If wick Lions Club sponsored a gig-
antic Halloween party Ip Fordwich
Arena to entertain the children and
youth of the whole township. We
would judge that at least three hun-
dred children were present and almost
an equal number of adults. Despite the
rather cold -weather, everyone seemed
to enjoy the proceedings.
First on the program was the com-
petitions for those in costume, which
was confined to pupils of the Continua-
tion and Public schools in the town-
ship or children of pre-school age.
This feature was keenly entered into
and the judges really had a tough as-
signment to choose the best, Prize-
winners were as follows:
Hallowe'en Costume, Girl-Shirley
Holt, Fordwich; Glenna Wright, S. S.
No. 1; Phyllis Keith, Fordwich.
Hallowe'en Costume, Boy-Jack
Foster, Fordwich; Powell Hargrave,
Fordwich; Bobby Gibson, S. S. No. 12.
Comic Costume, Girl-Pat Strong,
Gorrie; Lorna Greenley, Lakelet;
Shiella Denny, Fordwich.
Comic Costume, Boy-G. Reidt,
Perry Strong, iGorrie; Ralph Witmer,
Fordwich.
Best Clown-Billy Johnston, S. S.
No. 6.
Fancy Dress Costume, Boy or Girl
-Gwenneth Bride, S. S. No. 12; Jim-
mie Wylie, Wroxeter; David Aldrich,
S. S. No. 12; Elizabeth Patterson,
Fordwich.
Judges-Mrs. L. VanVelsor, Wrox-
eter; Miss Jean Sparling, Gorrie; Mr.
J. H. Pollock, Fordwich.
Following the judging all the child-
ren were lined 'up and in queue fashion
filed past the refreshment booth where
they received free hot dogs and orange
drink or coffee, if they wished it.
Then came the Quizz contest, with
Master-of-Ceremonies Ken Edgar in
charge, This, too, proved very popular
with the young folk.
It was intended to have an enter-
tainer perform at various times, but
the committee failed to procure one
suitable to the occasion. However, it
was found unnecessary anyway; as the
program proved quite entertaining and
long enough.
The one-cent' bingo and the free
dance were intermingled, in order not
to prolong the event too much, and
even the adults were permitted to
warm 'up on the dance floor toward the
end.
A second round of free hot dogs and
beverage interspersed the quizz and
bingo.

Pranksters Go Too Far
We are very sorry to report that
youngsters are guilty of doing some
tricks that should be brought before
the public. These have come to the
fore when Hallowe'en pranksters did
some damage to property of some of
our oldest citizens. Damage that can
be righted in one case, and which we
trust they will have the courage to
return and right the wrong. For years
there has been a bit of money floating
around in some of the stores in our
village, coins disguised as 10 and 25
cent pieces. Need we say more?

HURON-BRUCE
FARM FORUM
Huron-Bruce Farm • Forum held
their weekly meeting at the hoMe of
Mrs. Oscar Holmes with an attendance
of 36. The discussion for the even-
ing was "How can farmers reach full
production without suffering glutted
markets." It was thought that the
present prices were satisfactory to all
if a •floor price was set to keep the
prices where the farmer can make a
decent living. It was also thought sub-
sidies were a help in keeping down
inflation and also a help to the farmer.
Nobody was in favour of the open
market as this would lead to lower
prices and it was the opinion that pro-
duction need not be controlled if there
were steady markets in other countries
who need our productg. The remain-
der of the evening was spent in pro-
gressive euchre. ,High prize for ladies,
Mrs. Ross King and low, Mr. Walter
Richardson, who took the place of a
lady. High prize for men, Billy Jen-
kins, low, Lorne McAllister.
