The Green Six was duty six for the night and Doug Casernore led the Grand Howl. Akela inspected the pack and chose Terry Sallows of the Yellow Six as the neatest Cub, which allowed Terry to wear the special woggle for the even- ing. A new game was introduced and led by Bagheera. It was really lively and the boys en- joyed it. Along with games and fun goes work, as a Cub soon learns. Baloo took our New Chum and helped him in his Tenderpad work. Bagheera taught some of the boys the words and the pro- per way to stand when singing "O Canada". Quite a few of the boys practised up on their skip- ping, with Akela, while the re- mainder went with Raksha to learn the patron saints and the composition of the flags. Mr. Bill Conron was present to test some of the Cubs on their semaphore. This is a system of sending and receiving words by use of the arms and flags and is just about the toughest test in Cub star work. The following boys tried and passed the test: Ron Orien, Doug Mason, Murray Leggatt, Gene Porter and Terry Reid. Our congratulations for a fine job. A little work was done in lining up and preparation for Church parade which is this Sun- day. The boys are to meet in the gymnasium of the United Church at 10:30. For those who don't know where the gym is, some Cubs will be on duty to show them. Full uniform is to be worn including short pants. Long pants will be worn over the shorts until they reach the church, where they will be tak- en off. A special thanks is given to Ross Gordon, Dawson Pollock, Andy Lunn and Hugh Sinnamon for supplying transportation to Kitchener last Sunday. Every- one who went had a wonderful time at the hockey game. 0--0--0 PACK "B" Pack B's Thursday evening meeting featured presentation of flowers as projects in First Star work. The new chums work- ed with Akela on ball catching and several of the boys passed. The remainder of the pack work- ed in three groups, one onskip- ping, one at knots, and one group still plugging away at semaphore, These boys were under the direction of ACMs Jim Miller, Bill Maclntyre and Jim Campbell. Duty six for the evening was the Blue Six. They led in a stirring Grand Howl and in the inspection, tied the Red Six for first place. We had 28 Cubs in attendance, making for a busy Seo AIL activates evening. Before the closing ceremon- ies the Cubs were advised of the church parade on Sunday, February 21, to Wingham Unit- ed Church. Final details will be given at tonight's meeting, 0--0--0 BUSIEST WEEK For Canada's 2'15, 000 Cubs, Scouts and Rovers, February 21 to 28 promises to be their busi- est week of the year --it's BOY SCOUT WEEK.

Mrs. F. Stamper Dies Suddenly Mrs, Frank Stamper, 60, of Turnberry Township, died sud- denly at her home on Wednes- day, February 10. The former Bertha Viola Souch, born on the third line of Morris, was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. William Souch. She married Frank Stam- per December 14, 1927, at the home of her parents. Mr. and Mrs. Stamper had resided on their present farm since their marriage. Mrs. Stamper was a mem- ber of Bluevale United Church. She enjoyed her home and all work associated with it and her church. She had a peaceful disposition. Her very sudden passing has been a severe shock to her devoted family.

The pallbearers were Har- vey Timm, John Fischer, Kin - ley McNaughton, Alex Corri- gan, Gordon Mundell and Ward Sellers. Middle age is not a precise age. It's only an average be- tween the 18 you feel tonight and the 118 you'll feel tomor- row morning. --Free Press, Quit- tnatt, Ga. PLAY IT SAFE! All it takes is a little square of ice in the right spot to im- mobilize the biggest automo- bile. The ice can form under the wheels while the car is parked. Be ready for it. Carry some sand, a few old sacks or a length of chicken wire to provide traction. Another ice - driving tip: spinning the wheel is no way to get off that ice or out of snow. Gently and slowly is the way. Park Board Holds Euchre FORDWICH-Sixteen tables of progressive euchre were in play at the community hall on Friday night, sponsored by the Park Association.
