Premier Kennedy of Ontario said
And Lionesses Too
On Friday, January 28th, the Wing-
ham Armouries was the scene of a
record meeting of the Wingham Lions
Club as 142 Lions, ladies and guests
assembled for a gala evening of enter-
tainment.
Feature of the evening was the
showing of numerous photos of Lions
taken at more tender years, snaps gar-
nered by some of the enterprising
Lionesses to shake the dignity of their
surprised hosts. Dressed in costumes
ranging from baby clothes to straw
hats, aprons and tight-fitting trousers,
many Lions would be recognized by
their faces but few from their figures.
A portrait of Lion Wally Armstrong
taken at age of 4 or thereabouts was
judged to be the most remarkable and
he was presented with a gold framed
enlargement.
The meeting commenced with a
banquet made possible through the
efforts of Lions Whitney and Mrs.
Grose. Lion Tailtwister Gord Buch-
anan was on the job with the small
sacrifice of getting nothing to eat was

ONT. MAY GOVERN
MARGARINE COLOR
If you are wondering what our
Chamber of Commerce has been doing
or what your $5.00 membership means,
don't fail to read all of this,
First of all, the Wingham Chamber
of Commerce is organized and opera-
ted after the pattern suggested by the
Canadian Chamber, of Commerce.
There was a day when your member-
ship fee, meant that once a year you
got a banquet free, Using that idea
Chambers of Commerce all over Can-
ada began to die out. Rejuvenation
came when citizens began saying
"Let our fee be dedicated to the im-
provement of our Community, let it
represent our stake in the Town." Be-
hind-the-back-criticism" was discon-
tinued and in it's place appeared con-
structive, helpful criticism. Ideas
flowed into Chamber of Commerce
meetings and the new attitude spread
rapidly.
Our Meeting
This is what your executive officers
did at their last meeting in brief. The
minutes were read and 'adopted:
Motion—that each member receive
a framed certificate indicating mem-
bership in the Chamber of Commerce,
This to be done, as soon as possible.
Motion—that this year's member-
ship drive be vigourously conducted
and that all present and prospective
members be given the opportunity to
express their views before the drive
begins.
Motion—that a monthly bulletin be
issued to all members fully describing
the monthly executive meetings and
containing other items of interest.
Motto—that all chairmen of com-
mittees call meetings before next ex-
ecutive meeting and report the results,
Each committee is to deal with pro-
blems that come under their jurisdic-
tion.
Motion—that the chairman of the
Rural Relations Committee continue
his investigations regarding the hold-
ing of a Community Sale of livestock,
etc., to be held in the Town Shed and
report his findings.
Besides these motions several mat-
ters were discussed for easier reading
Regarding the matter of having a Seed
Fair in Wingham, the Agricultural
Representatives advised the Chamber
that the earliest possible time would
be next Fall. This matter was tabled
for action later.
The Industrial Committee was to
investigate the possibility of having a
Industrial Fair here this Spring. This
was to feature "Made in Wingham"
products only.
The Publicity Committee is to meet
and deal with the matter of placing
signs advertising Wingham at the ap-
proaches to Town reporting their re-
commendation to the next executive
meeting. The Rural Relations Com-
mittee is to determine whether or not
it would be advisable to have another
banquet this Spring.
Our parking problem was vigorous-
ly discussed and as a result three
committees are to meet and discuss
way and means of a solution,
Artificial Ice
Last item to be discussed was the
subject of artificial ice, The (minim
was that we would be exceedingly
short-sighted if we did not go thor-
oughly into the matter. It was gener-
ally agreed that while it was an am-
bitious venture we could not afford to
ignore it, Other communities in the
area have found it possible and per-
haps upon investigation we would dis-
cover that it could be done here. All
agreed that the investigation should
include everything from the minimum:
that of having an artificial ice plant
installed and operating, to the maxi-
mum: that of cost of enlarging the
arena to include a recreation centre,
increased seating capacity, building a
curling rink to be served by the same
plant and the cost of day to day op-
eration of the whole venture. The
citizens of Wingham would then de-
cide what would be undertaken, It
was recognized that the costs would be
quite heavy but the benefits derived
were considered to be more than suf.
ficiene to justify the expense. The
meeting adjourned at 11:45 pgre

He said the Ontario Attorney-Gen-
eral's Department had found no law
forbidding a manufacturer to give
margarine a yellow color. However,
he felt the dairy farmer has an "un-
derstandable grievance" on the subject
of colored margarine,
"For generations butter has had
yellow color, so much so that it has
bedtime the trademark of butter. Dairy
men feel that yellow is their colot for
butter and that margarine, whose or-
Iginal manufactured color is white,
should be kept white", he said.
