Mrs. E. Baillie of Walkerton succeeds Miss Ufland as advisor. Problems were discussed and Mrs. M. Ashdown, past presi- dent of the Ontario Board and now vice president of the Cana- dian Federation, and Miss Kay Schaeffer, of London, vice- president of Area A, answered questions asked by several clubs. Dinner was held in the lounge with Mrs. Ashdown as speaker. She spoke of the need to accept change and new me- thods and challenged her listen- ers to go forward and not let time stand still. She said automation in in- dustry today should present a challenge rather than a problem, and those involved should grow with the changing pattern. Mrs. Ashdown urged women in the working force to uphold the place of women in industrial and professional life. She pointed out that leaders of science have had to fight to prove their beliefs and during the past century, women, too have had to struggle to gain the position they hold today in the working force. To maintain this place women must give their best to the positions they hold. Only in this way can wo- men work toward the better- ment of women's rights and working conditions, assist in the growth of the country and share in fields of government and business.

Hallowe'en Parfy Sixty-nine weird characters gathered in the gymnasium of the United Church on Tuesday evening just to have fun. These same people, with masks off, will be collecting money for UNICEF from the Wingham householders on Hallowe'en afternoon. Since they enjoy life these C. G. I. T. girls wish to do their share to help the starving children of the world. The party began with a grand march led by a sailor from Jo- sephine Street. Judging of the prize costumes was then done by Mrs. F. Madill and Mrs. A. Williams. The "Tiger in Tide" was judged the most original and when dumped from the box turned out to be D'Arcy Ma- thers, Patsy Walker, disguised as"Bo Peep" and Barbara Boyd as "Little Boy Blue" were also prize -winners in this class as was Barbara Hetherington as a "Beatnik" . Debbie Foxton, as a stunning Indian maid, and Julie Adams as a dainty Italian girl were prize -winners in the national class. The winners in the pretty and Ilallowe'en classes were Cathy Wenger, Judy Ohm, Gail Gan- nett, and Carol Miller. In the largest class, for couples, Lynda Reavie and Gloria Reed were winners as a Roaring Twcnties couple; Judy Reid and Lynda Elliot as Beat- niks; and a six -some of a two - headed family - depicted by Lynda Lockridge and Vicki Ro- senhagen as the mother, Mar- ilyn Tiffin and Barbara Dauphin as the father and Ann Welwood and Sandra Tiffin as the baby won third prize. A couple of white wrapped Egyptian mummies mystified the party, especially when they would not accept a prize so the girls unwound their funeral wrappings and brought two lea- ders, Mrs. R. Campbell and Mrs. K. Wood, to life. Each of the six C. G. I. T. groups conducted a lively game - using beans, balloons, base- ball -bats, apples on strings and surprise assortments. After a Hallowe'en story with sound ef- fects lunch was served by the senior girls. Final reminders of the UNICEF districts' coverage were given before all gathered in a large circle for Taps.
