Our bingo night was not
too successful financially
for our branch as only 55
people attended the

weather conditions.
Leonard Steep won the
$200 jackpot prize and
Comrade Eric Switzer,
our bingo chairman
issues a renewed call for
`better attendance.

strong, Bill Harris, and
Len Arnston have the
honor of representing our
Branch -at the Zone

Last Saturday evening
in the Auditorium, our

they held one of their
many yearly dances.
With Betty Cardno and
Irene Okahashi, two of
the Directors away op a
weekend holiday, the only

Horbaniuk was left to
supervise the action. A
good fun loving group of
'patrons was present
making her job a
pleasure. We hope they'll
come back again soon.
Our thanks to Eric and
Mrs. Switzer for taking
care of the bar -tending
duties, and the needs of
the Country Singles Club.

Now that you've got
your skates and you're
ready .to go, take note of
your responsibilities.
In order to skate well,
your blades must be
sharp. You have a hard
time standing up on the
ice with dull or dented
edges. Sharp blades are
like knives. So skaters,

VALENTINE'S DANCE
Vanastra and District
Lions Club
how do you handle Mom's
butcher knife? Very very
carefully, that's how.
Therefore, it is man-
datory, if you must put in
time before your "ice
time" you must wear
skate guards.
The whole floor of the
lobby is not carpetted
with a rubber mat. There
are some runners but
when the lobby is filled
with people it's easier to
step off the mat than ask
someone to move. One
step onto the cement can
spoil the sharp edges of
your blades.
Last Saturday there
was a big problem of
young skaters, wearing
bare skates walking on
cement and worse still,
crawling around on the
bleachers. Ruined edges
or serious injury could
result.
Parents, please take
note: the executive is
responsible for , ...,the
skating program butt' not
for the conduct of your
child before or after his
or her class. They are
•
wearing expensive and
rather dangerous
weapons if not handled
properly. Please show
them their respon-
sibilities.
There are respon-
sibilities in every sport
and constant steady
attention to them are
necessary. Just watch the
senior skaters. Their
experience has taught._
them good skate manners
and maintenance so that
to there it all comes
naturally.
Varna character missed
By Mary Chessell
The community was
saddened to hear of the
passing' of Harry Woolley
at his home on Saturday.
His tractor was a
familiar sight on the road -
and around the village,
and he was a good source
of information about
bygone days in the area.
There seem to be fewer of
these "character" types
around these days to lend
color to the local scene.

weekend skiing on the
hills around Georgian
Bay. In their party, which
stayed at the Georgian
Bay Hotel, were Bill and
