ants, and had a few streams stock-
ed with fish. In 1938 and 1939
the Rifle Club took , the Ontario

the Dominion of Canada.
In 1940 a highlight, was the first
fowl supper, held in the Queen's
Hotel, Seaforth. ' The first . New

of this year, and on the third

Rifle Club for boys has been start-
ed, and they will be trained to use
firearms properly. They meet on
on the last Monday every month.
Training in firearms use is also
being given to ladies and girls,
The Club has released several
pheasants, A few streams every
year have been fixed up with
small dams, etc. Through the De-
partment of Lands "and Forests,
some 12,000 trout have been dump-
ed: Speckled, Brown and Rainbow.
The Club holds meetings on the
first Monday of each month, at
8 p.m. The Executive meets every
third Monday. The Ladies meet
on "tire second Tuesday of each
regular meeting of the
Woman's Association of St. James'
Church, Middleton, was held on
Wednesday afternoon, March 2, at
the home of Mrs. Arnold Rathwell,
with 21 ladies present.
Mrs. John Middleton presided,
opening with the singing of a
hymn and prayers. Mrs. Stewart
Middleton gave the scripture read-
ing. Following the routine reports
and business, Mrs. Middleton in-
troduced the guest speaker, the
rector's wife, Mrs. Warren Outer -
bridge, who chose as her subject,
"A.. Typical British Housewife's
Day". ,Mrs. Outerbridge was mar-
ried in London, England, then ac-
companied her husband to Cardiff,
Wales, where he was a curate.
Cardiff has a population of two
million people. A native of New
York State, U.S.A., Mrs. Outer -
bridge found their ways quite
different.
A typical British housewife's
first job in the morning is. to build
a coal fire on the open grate.

to a car or drive one but go shop-
ping every day .by two -decker
bus; this being necessitated by
the fact very few have refrigerat
, Officers Appointed
The monthly meeting was held
on March 7, with Louis Freeman
in the chair, 'and a very good turn-
out. Since it was nomination night
all business matters were soon
brought to a close.
The first vice-president, Doug-
las: Freeman, moved up to .be
president for 1955, and takes: over
his duties at the end of March. At.
that time second vice-presidenf E.
R. Doucette will be moved up into
the first vice's place. The third
vice-president declined to contin-
ue, so Harold Glew was nominated
for the second vice -chairmanship.
Tom Murphy was ,nominated for
third vice-president.
There was no winner of the bul-
letin prize, so this will increase to
$4 next month. Ed Chandler, Al
Sharpe and Tom Turner were win-
ners of the three chickens. Twenty
five dollars was voted to the Clin-
ton and District Chamber of Com-
merce for their resuscitator.
Other officers for 1955 are:

Shopping -took one to the grocer
and to the green -grocer for fresh
fruitsand vegetables. "Tomatoes
do not grow outside in England
due to constant rains but delicious
ones are raised under glass," Mrs.
Outerbridge said.
Mrs. Outerbridge mentioned the
wonderful,; flavour' of the apples,
beef: and lamb of England and
Wales. She also demonstrated the
bewildering small coinage of the
country with real coins. Mrs.
Outerbridge's talk was interesting
and well received by all present:
