Mrs. Wilson Irwin, formerly 'of Lucknow, ob- served her 96th birthday on March 12th at Brucelea Haven, Walker- ton. Tenders were let for the construction of a new bridge on the 12th concession of West Wawa- nosh, just east of the Lucknow- Dungannon road. The contract was awarded to Roger MacEachern of Mount Forest for $25,763. 30 YEARS AGO MARCH 1947 Rail service was resumed after a week's tie-up by a storm and snow plow wreck, that brought complete isolation to this district, except for air transportation. Plane service proved popular during the storm and carried out essential missions as well. Penicillin was flown to a Kintail man, who was ill with pneumonia. Mail, yeast and other supplies were also flown to Dungannon. Locally, Purdon's Bakery had a supply of yeast flown in. The Lucknow Presbyterian Church let the contract for the installation of a Hammond electric organ and chimes. A memorial organ fund had earlier been established and it was hoped to have the organ installed in time for the anniversary services in May. The "little nickel" in use in Canada for sixty-three years was being withdrawn from circulation. 50 , YEARS AGO MARCH 1927 Lucknow ratepayers, at a public meeting, favoured the paving of Havelock Street.

Our president, Wayne Whytock, opened the meeting by leading us in the 4-H pledge:0 The roll call was answered by everyone stating their name and what they were doing in their school break. There were various answers from one girl catching tip on her 4-H to a boy who claimed that he didn't have holidays!' We had two guests present at the meeting on .a Junior Farmer exchange from Prince Edward Island. They were Dale Robinson and Ricky Sanderson. Two success- ful projects that we have just completed were reported on. First, the bus trip to -College Royal in Guelph on March 12 was very successful and it is hoped that this can be repeated again next year. The other project was a dance workshop held in Elmwood on February 18. The night was well attended and a lot of thanks go to the committee and Roy Pennington for doing such a great job.. It was suggested that we have another one in the near future. Thanks to the efforts of Gin Hundt and Joanne Watke, our mascot has been completed. The roll call for next meeting is to think of a name for the fuzzy little fella! There have been tentative plans made for two different exchanges. One to Alberta and the other to Niagara. We then went on to discuss 4-H organizational meetings. The meet- ings are taking on .a new look this year as the 4-H Council are helping to put on a demonstration of the proper procedure in running meet- ings. The next 4-H Council meeting will be held in Walkerton on April 12. Anyone is welcome to come and see exactly what our council does! Heather Boyle. Press Reporter.
