road for tail light trouble, when, just
as he was getting out of the cruiser,
the motorist behind inadvertently (he
-lays) took his foot off the clutch,
jumped, jabbed for the brake and hit
the accelerator.,

On Business Trip ,
To Windy City
Bob Carbert, farm editor, at station
CKNX is leaving on Thursday by TCA
for Chicago, where he will attend
three different events. He plans to
attend the annual convention of the
National Association of Radio Farm
Directors, the National 4-H congress
and the International Livestock Ex-
position. He will fly back to Wingham
on Sunday.
Bob is one of the four Canadian

Western Ontario junior farmers there,
Twenty-six delegates from Ontario
expect to attend, He it also hoping to
attend the National Barn Dance
show while in Chicago,
On Monday night 23 Nov, the
R.H.Q. and 99th Bty held their regu-
lar training night which was in very
good attendance.
The entire evening was spent on
small arms training in preparation
for the units' trip to Camp Ipper-
wash on Sunday Nov, 29th, If no
wild geese or ducks fly over, the boys
should be able to hit the target in
front of them, Let's hope so, or WO2
Seddon and Gnr, Glenn Foxton will
be fuming after giving the instruc-
tions to the gunners.' I will not
mention anything about the officers
course held Sunday in the armouries
except that they played with little
guns and houses. It was a cloth
model exercise in other words. Per-
sonally I would rather play with a
electric train—it's more fun.
The band practiced under Band-
master Bill Henderson, and we have
hopes of getting new band members
from the Teeswater band, that is if
we can just get them in uniform. If
this can be arranged this unit's band
will be second to none.
The quartermaster, Capt. Hall and
Sgt. Casemore, had a busy night try-
ing to find clothing belonging to
"lost" members of the unit who, shall
we say, forgot to return them. May-
be the Clothes are in the war surplus
store now, Casey. Have you tried
there?
Capt. Rowland the regimental pay-
master is preparing all that lettuce
for the Xmas advance pay. Money
bags is worried as to where he is go-
ing to get the money to pay the boys.
The Xmas banquet for this unit
will be held Dec. 14th and all mein-
bars are invited (also pay parade).
So bring your wives or girl friends
to help you home with the loot.
This is all for this week but as a
closing reminder to all you fellows
who wish to join the Reserve Army
you are welcome to come down on
Monday nights and see what is going
on, and if interested, to sign up.
