Liquor Was Sold Despite Warning Pleading guilty to seliinr1 liquor, Gerald Spain, 24, of Goderich, was fined $I00 and costs or 30 days in jail. In magistrate's court here, Crown Attorney H. Glenn Hays said that two sailors had bought liquor from Gerald Spain at the residence of his father. On November 23, a youth who was a ward of the court bought a bottle of wine at Spain's, The wine was sold despite the fact that the county probation officer said he had warned a number of local bootleggers not to sell to phi`s youth.

SMILEY Well, here's the second instal- ment on deer hunting. What's that? You thought it was finished? You're not interested in deer hunt- ing? Don't be ridiculous. That's the first time in a couple 'of years that ti've been farther away than the next township, and you're go- ing to , hear all about it. I have enough deer hunting material to keep this column going until spring. * * * * We went deer hunting by boat. don't mean that we shot only those deer which were in swim- ming, but we made the boat our camp, sleeping on boaid. We were a mixed bag: one farmer, one hair- dresser, one car salesman, one well driller, one editor, and our ubiqu- ious skipper, guide, pancake maker and whopper -teller, John. * * * By the time the hunt was over, the farmer was completely spoiled, as she'd been sleeping in until six a.m. The hairdresser was so whis- kered and dishevelled you couldn't tell whether you were talking to , the back of his head or the front. The car salesman would have sold you a perfectly good rifle, with which he'd missed three deer, for eight cents. The well driller was ready to crawl into a drill hole and pull it in after him. The editor was the acknowledged authority on November swims, following several dunkings. * * * It was an interesting hunt, right from the first. On the way over, those little wades with the cute white tops on them, that we'd seen from shore, turned out to be higher. than the boat. There is something slightly unnerving about seeing a solid wall of cold water coming at you, slowly at first -.'then eagerly, like the tongue of a great, grey monster uncoiling to flick you over for, a look, .before sucking you into MAKE WAY FOR TIME MAN FROM MARS!

Clairmont, in the chair. Scripture was read by Mrs, Wal- ter Kingswell. A report on the. Institute convention at London was. given by Ml's. Jack Ryan. It. .was decided to hold a rummage sale in MacKay Hall during February. The roll call was answered by each member ,giving a Christmas gift to the Children's Aid Society. ft was decided to make Christ- mas boxes for the Institute shut- ins. A Christmas story was given, by Mrs. A. Straughan. As it.. was. Grandmother's Day, corsages were presented to .all grandmothers. There were eight visitors present. One guest was 'Mrs. Ridleyy from Alberta. Mrs. Jewell gave a demonstration on wrapping Christmas' "gifts. Miss Dianne McConnell sang "Bless This House" and "White. Christmas." Misses Mary Jane McManus, Ruth Wallace and Sybil Bowra gave a couple of dance numbers. Lunch was served by Mrs, ,A. Straughan, Mrs. C. Worsell, MD. W.:- -Kings- well, Mrs. J. Adams, Mrs. J.

He was nursed like a baby for several days (in fact, the horned hunter from the next boat claimed indignantly that the dog got far more sympathy. than he did), but it was no good, as he'd been crippled. rh - * * A few more incidents like these, and some of us would have been frogging it back to the mainland,` without benefit of boat. Fortun- ately, the more timid souls were deterred from such a step by the fact that there was a 50 -mile -an- other stalwart hunters ata crossing of trails. One was barking like a seal. The other was wheezing like a winded whale. I had the,,earache. We started exchanging remedies and comparing notes. Adiong the three of us, we had: nerve tonic - ill, cough drops, tranquillizers, �22's, seasick pills, laxative pills, sleeping pills and stomach powd- ers. It sounded like a meeting of the Over -Ninety Club. �4 '1' * W had a fairly thrilling trip home, nosing across a shoal on which the big seas were breaking, at four o'clock on a black morning - It was nice to get back to good old civilization, though, and find the whole family in -bed with the 'flu, the furnace on the hummer, the linotype operator departed, a pile of bills up to my waist and the phone ringing irritatedly.
