And yet . . Often this honour might be awarded with good reason to any one of the nation's life insurance policyholders. Why should they deserve this distinction? Because it is their premium money, part of which is invested for them by life insurance coal.; panics, which makes it possible to build many such useful public works. Not only roads and bridges, but electrical power sta- tions, waterworks, stores, home's, office buildings and industrial plants are built with the help of life insurance dollars.

DOMINION STORES LTD. 5-12 C. BRUBACHER Phone Of/awl R.R. 1, Wingham Hobden. She must surely have given a pang of sympathy to Mr. Ferguson and Miss MacGregor, the directors of our Junior and Senior Drama Clubs. The Glee Club sang, "Lead Kindly Light," and managed it in the absence of Mrs. McDougal, with Iso- bel Dennis at the piano. Barry Fry and Greg Buchanan, of the Junior Dramatic Club, Presented a skit, "Hook, Line and Sinker," and they made a very good job of it. Fran- ces Newman sang "Marshmallow World," very beautifully, assisted by Catherine Keating at the piano, Next Marie Elliott gave us a tune on her euphonium, with Barbara Allen as- sisting at the piano, Marie came back unsupported in response to an encore, which speaks for the quality of her playing, Jean Sangster and Winona Wright sang a duet, "You Belong to Me," accompanied by Neil Bathe. They also responded to an encore. The Jun- ior Drama Club presented still an- other of their delightful skits, "Rock- ing Chair Blues." Those taking part were Margaret King and Phyllis Hamilton, In the absence of George Porter, the usual excellent Journal was read by the assistant editor, Isobel Dennis. Mr. Vegan gave the critics remarks. He praised the participants of the program, complimenting them espec- ially on having made themselves heard at the back of the hall. We were all glad to see so many from Grade nine taking part, as was also mentioned. The meeting was closed with The National Anthem. Clifford Coultes FOOTBALL SU1VL'11ARY Well the football season at Wing- ham District High School is over for another year. This year's team was the first to wear the new colours,, purple and white, and the first to be called the Mustangs. The season opened in Goderich with the green Mustangs facing an ever greener Goderich team, The Mustangs displayed an iron-bound line in this I game, but the Goderich backfield were extremely powerful. It was anyone's game right to the end, but the final score was Wingham 1, Goderich 0, The next two were home games against Clinton and Seaforth. In the first game the Mustangs seemed to have improved considerably, and they won 11 to 6. In the next game HASENROVE'S SMOKE SHOP - for - Smokers' SUNDRIES MAGAZINES SOFT DRINKS against last years champions, how- ever, they were outplayed and Sea- forth won 12 to 3. The fourth game of the season was rather an upset as a cocky, and strong team from. Wingham fell be- fore the Clinton Red Devils In Clin- ton. The main flaw in the Mutangs' defence was shown up in this game for the first time, as Clinton com- pleted pass after pass to win 11-0, The second last game was a good close game, but the Mustang's solid ground attack won them their third victory of the season, 6 to 2, The last game in Seaforth, the Wingham boys suffered an ignomin- ious defeat at the hands of a nower- i ful Seaforth team. In the final quar- ter Wingham got their only T. D. and the final score was 34-6. So the season ended with the Mus- tangs winning three and losing three; a little better than last year. At this rate next year they should be due for a championship. George Hall Davies of Canada The musical Davies of Canada pre- sented an hour's programme in the Town Hall on Thursday morning, November 6th. The three grown-up Davie's "children," accompanied by Mrs. Davie at the piano, sang many pleasing and familiar numbers. Fran- ces, mezzo soprano; Nelles, Basso; and Noble, baritone, combined voices in "Thanks be to Thee" by Handel, their own arrangement of "Lucky Old Sun, and a negro work song called "Boil dem Cabbage down." Solos by Noble and Nelles, included "Tumblin' Tumble-Weed," and a Ros- sini number from the movie, "The Great Caruso." One song which de- lighted the high school audience was "When we Haven't Said our Prayers," which told of the fears of two little boys in the dark in bed, when they haven't said their prayers, Another interesting one was "The Robust Tenor," in an opera who kept on °Yelling" after he had been shot. Nobles and Nelles rendered a very animated rendition of "The Tea Party," The two men took the parts of two very aristocratic but gossipy women who were "having a perfectly chawrning time, . ." at a friend's tea party. Frances Davies, mezzo-soprano, pleased the audience with a "Spanish Serenade," "Blue Moon," and Taith- metic." In addition to all these, sev- eral more duets and trios were har- monized by the Davies, In all the programme was much enjoyed and we are hoping for the return of the Dav- ies to Canada, Catherine Keating A Smile or Two Helen Scott:: "What's wrong with the straight and narrow path?" Don McKinnon . "No place to park." Visitor—"Do you get along with your Robert Gammage: "Yes sir. I pray for them every night." Visitor; "Have your prayers been answered?"
