A A Wop By Nei THE "JOLLY Sunny Seven" Club is a remarkably descriptive name for, a young, girls' club... As well as being jolly and sunny the gals are ,also thoughtful ,of other youngsters less fortunate than themselves . . . This was shown when the members "en masse" visited Dr. J. A. Addison and brought with them all the pennies, pickles and dimes in the Club's coffers in order to buy Easter Seals 'to help the Crippled Children's fund .:. The "Seven" are Faye Aikenhead, Joan Liver- more; Mary Livermore, Julianne Giles, Beatrice Murch, Audrey MacDonald and Donna a a a TWO ADULT Clubs, making substantial donations to the cam- paign are the Porter's Hill Com- munity Club, Mrs. Bert Harris, Secretary, and the Glee Club, Mrs. C.

THE STERLING TRUSTS CORPORATION 372 Say Street, Toronto 1 all years In gladness familiar tunes, the words all depicting the woes of an apple grower , . , Old time dance music was provided by Mr. Bennett' and Stuart McEwen and after- wards by Mrs. Bill Maguire and Fred Be11, .Nrs Maguire was wearing the first Easter bonnet we have seen this spring . . It was smart too, tight fitting bright green straw with a small group- ing of pale yellow roses slightly off face . . And speaking of women's clothes, we saw for the first time, that day, a dress made of nylon It was worn by Mrs. Stewart Middleton—a two- piece dress of green and black print . The materiel looked a bit like taffeta, but was softer .,nice. SEVERAL Clintonians who attended the basketball games in London, Saturday, told us that the six Clinton Collegiate girl cheerleaders "stole the show" at the games and that they outshone those from all the other schools— including a number of large city schools . , The gals who put on such la good show for Clinton were Barbara MacDonald, Mary Tyndall, Jill Blatehley, Anne. Fairservice, Lorine Garen, and Joyce Bailey ... Congratulations! 8, a a IN his "Neighbourly News" broadcast, Sunday last, Don Fair- bairn mentioned that several weekly editors had criticized the type of stories he was using in his broadcasts and he asked for suggestions . As we are going to see and hear this broadcast in Clinton this coming summer, we would like him to know we think he is doing an excellent job and covering his field in a remarkable manner with the material he has to work with . . After all, he hes as many listeners in the cities as in the country (that we know only too well from personal ex- perience) and his stories must have general appeal for all . . . a n: a WE will admit that we would not have said that the first few months of his broadcasting, for then we felt he laboured too long over a few stories and did not cover the field enough . . His material is only as good as that published in the weeklies — and that varies As every cub re- porter learns, from the following illustration, when a dog bites a man it is not news, but when a man bites a dog it definitely is Unfortunately, or otherwise, the weekly, being situated so close •to the people, must publish considerable "dog bites man" type of story, which is news and of interest to only a small group and of no interest, to Neighbourly News' wide public , , , The "man bites dog" story is what he is looking for and in our small law- abiding communities, it is usually in the human interest happenings that such news is found . So what else can he talk about, you critical editors? , * * i THE HORTICULTURAL Society has been giving out many tuber- h OBITUARY il MOWAT McDOUGALL Funeral services were to b held this afternoon (Thursday March 30, 1950) at the Brophev Funeral.
