It is played with curling stones mounted on steel ball bearings. The "stones" are made of a patented material that is hard, compact, and tough in resis- tance. Instead of ice, the rink surface is paved with reconsti- tuted stone, over which the curling rocks roll, just as in Curling. While the usual curling rules are followed, the game is play- ed either by two teams of one player each, or by two players on each side. Because there is no ice, there is no need for sweeping, although the players are said to carry a broom. The new game is said to be Wingham Drops 45, Population GODERICH—Population of Huron County increased by 1, 130 last year to 50, 021, four towns accounting for two-thirds of the gain. Clinton added 235, Goderich 207, Seaforth 156 and Exeter 112, while Wingham dropped 45. The Goderich total of 6, 567 was announced by Asses- sor Ed. Jessop last October.

Double Use of Farm Power in One Decade Ontario farmers more than doubled their use of electricity within a decade according to Robert Boyer, 2nd vice-chair- man of Ontario Hydro. In a report to the Ontario Legislature, Mr. Boyer, the member for Muskoka, outlined the importance of electric ser- vice on the farm. "While the number of farm customers rose by 12.5 per cent between 1951 and 1961, total energy con- sumption of this group more than doubled," he said. "While the price index of services and commodities used by farmers rose by 19 per cent in the same period, the cost per kilowatt-hour actually de- clined by 3.5 per cent." Mr. popular, although we see no reason why it should be. More than half the fun in curling is the team effort by four men, each encouraging the others' rocks to reach the target. The excitement of sweeping, and the panic roar of "sweep" from a skip, whose own rock is wide of the broom, which adds to the excitement, are part of the color of the ice game which sets it apart from any other. Boyer said results of higher electrical consumption are ap- parent in greater output per farm worker and a higher cash income for the farmer. Turning to rates, Mr. Boyer told the legislature that Hydro's intnesive sales promotion cam- paign is of paramount impor- tance in keeping rates low. ....it is essential to keep our equipment working at capa- city in as many of the 24 hours of the day as possible if the Commission and the municipal utilities are to keep their costs down. Only through this more efficient use can rates for power be maintained at the low levels to which we have become accustomed," Mr. Boyer explained. CHEERFUL HOMEBODIES Ancient Hebrew law decreed that when a man had just mar- ried, he could not, for the first year, go to war or enter a new business. The statute gave as reason that "he should be free at home one year and 'shall cheer up his wife which he hath taken." FRI. VA PRESCR/PT/ON DRUGGIST DUBADRY NUONur TABU REVLON7 L20..«,0-Eitc.
