ACQUITTAL GIVEN
ON MURDER CHARGE
Short, wiry Frederick Littlechild
walked from court at 1Goderich a free
man on Friday, after the trial jury,
after considering for 70 minutes found
him "not guilty" of the murder of
Charles Bell last September 15.
As Littlechild stepped out of the
dock, he seemed stunned. He was met
by his wife, Olive, smiling radiantly,
and by two Salvation Army women
workers who sat with Mrs, Littlechild
through most of the court sessions.
Husband and wife walked from the
court room together,
In dismissing him, Justice Schroeder
told Littlechild "you arc indeed lucky
that the jury did not at least find you
guilty of manslaughter. Let this be a
lesson to you."
Earlier, he told Littlechild "The jury
have taken a very lienient view of this
• case and yott can certainly consider
yourself a very lucky man. The very
sordid story unfolded, reveals the
depths of degradation of which liquor
has brought you.
The jury retired at 4.20 to consider
its verdict and returned at 5.30,
WOMEN'S INSTITUTE
The Wingham Branch of the Wo-
men's Institute held its regular meet-
ing on Thursday afternoon, January
15th.
In the absence of the president,' the
Vice President, Mrs. Jas. Walpole, oc-
cupied the chair. The meeting opened
in the usual manner, The main item
of business was the completing of ar-
rangements for Monday night's Euchre
and arranging for another to ,follow
in a couple of weeks.
It was decided to hold a shower at
our next meeting for overseas parcels.
Following a period of community sing-
ing, an action play was presented by
five of the members namely: Mrs. M.
Swanson, Mrs. C. B. Armitage, Mrs.
R. A. Courts, Mrs. D. Hutchison and
Mrs. Chas, Bushfield. Entitled, "Want-
ed: A Wife," this play portrayed sev-
eral phases of the age-old problem of
ehoosiag a mate. Without speaking a
word, the ladies provided splendid en-
tertainment and are to be congratulated
on their talents.
This was :followed by a talk on
"Dramatics" given by Mr. Sam Bur-
ton, our Recreational Director. He
:spoke on various phases of Otis subject
in a. very interesting rammer dealing
especially with the problem of amat-
cut work and the desirability of provid-
ing our own entertainment. The mem-
bers would like to say a hearty "Thank
You" to Mr. Burton for the time and
effort expended in bringing them this
instructive and interesting talk,
Pauline Swanson was present and
sang two delightful solos "Sereeade of
the Bells" and " Dance at your
Wedding." She was accompanied at the
piano by her mother, Mrs. M. Swan.-
son,
The Roll Call was answered by names
ing a famous actor or actress. The
meeting closed with the National Art-
hem followed by a social half-hour.

LOCAL LYRIC WRITER
HAS SONG PUBLISHED
A local poet and a Vancouver com-
poser have collaborated to produce a
new Canadian art song, entitled 'Rev-
erie of a Soldier," which has just been
released by publishers and is being dis-
tributed .to radio stations and music
stores across Canada.
Mrs. Mentie DuVal is the poet, and
Alan Thompson, senior CBC music
producer at Vancouver, is the compos-
er. Their song is one of several Can-
adian songs and instrumental works
that have been published within the
past six months by BMI Canada Ltd.,
Toronto and Montreal, as part of a
plan to win recognition for Canadian •
composers both in Canada and abroad,
The DuVal poem , was originally
written in 1941, and published by Mac-
Millan's in "Voices of Victory." Since
getting in touch with one another
through BMI Canada, Mrs. DuVal and
Mr, Thompson have planned colab-
oration on a number" of songs and also
in writing an operetta.
TEESWATER PLANS
MEMORIAL ARENA
Decision to proceed at earliest pos-
sible date with erection of a memorial
was made at an enthusiastic meeting
of residents held in the Teeswater
Town Hall.
M. A. Donahue, chairman explained
what had been done to date regarding
appointment of committees, canvassers
an other necessary organization work.
The treasurer of the fund, Alex. B.
McKague, gave a financial report which
showed that $23,000 had already either
been paid or promised towards the
project.
Difference of opinion arose as to the
location for the arena but after thor-
oughly discussing the matter, the opin-
ion was unanimous that it should be •
built in the Teeswater Park and thus
serve the Teeswater Fair, whose board
has promised a grant of $5,000 toward
the erection costs.
With the erection of the arena in
sight, the village_ feels that another
forward step has been taken that will •
benefit the citizens of the community.
Only recently a new $70,000 water
project has been completed and at a
meeting of the Teeswater Hydro Elec-
tric Commission held recently it was
decided to provide new street listhting.
which should greatly enhance the ap-
pearance of the village.
