The Clinton Juveniles get very little re- cognition from a certain Western Ontario, daily. That certain sports editor 'has the distorted idea we are more interested in Yankee baseball, , While we are in a critical mad we alsa take a rap at St. Thomas scribe for over -confidence. Quote from March 23rd build-up, "The St. Thomas Juveniles have a great spirit, They may be down a goal or two by the third period but invaoiably tie. the game or win out in the latter stages, Tonight, they're going to get Clinton's measure early." Re- ports from Hanover and , Wingham Would indicate the Clinton Juveniles were mighty lads, They are in power, but not in weightas a chars elsewhere will indicate. The heaviest are "Butch, mow -'em -down" Mc- Kenzie and Norris Webb. The boys are not old either. We hope that Wingham and Hanover will copy that chart for their sport fans. We have it an good authority that a certain coach for a well-known city team has been scouting these parts and has an enviable eye on a couple of Clinton Juveniles'. .... Now that the hockey season is over locally, what about baseball? The Intermed- iates should be able to produce a good team again this yearFred McDonald, a star third baseman for Hanover two years ago is working in town and will probably line up with the locals. So far we haven't heard of an organization meeting. It apears that both Intermediate and Juvenile will have practically the same teams this year. Data on Juvenile Hockey Players There's been a lot of questions ask- ed regarding the weight and ages of the Lions Juveniles hockey planers, Some of our exchanges have listed then as "heavier and older boys." To Settle these arguments we have ob- tained authentic information on eaelr player, eight of whom are eligible for juvenile hockey next year. Position Player Goal Carter Def.

Women's Institute Meeting The Women's Institute 'held their regular meeting on Thursday, March 28th.. In the absence of the president, Mrs. N. W. Trewartha. presided and Mrs. Adams at the piano. The Rall Cell was in the form of a question- naire, the secretary asking a question when she called each name. These questions were both educational and humorous and caused much enjoy- ment. Mrs, W. Rozell then gave a couple of very appropriate readings, "Pass on the Praise", and "An Old Story". The musical part of the program consisted of two solos by Mrs. (Rex) Silver, "Gethsemane" and "I Love a Lassie." She was accompanied at the piano by Mrs, L. Adams. Miss Margaret Rozell also sang two numbers, "The Girl on 'the Little Blue Plate" and "South of the Bor- der". She was accompanied by Miss Greene. These solos were very muck enjoyed by all, Mrs. N. W. Trewartha gave a very interesting paper on Canadianization, stressing the fact that we should be well informed on Federal, Provincial and Municipal Governments. A. strik- ing committee composed of Mrs. W. McClinchey, Mee. F. Lobb and Mrs. F. Ilasily were appointed to bring in 0 het of new officers for the coming year. God Save the Icing was sung after which the following ladies .serv- ed lunch: Mrs. R. Webster, Mrs. W. Mc0linehey, Mrs. W. Ross, Mrs. J. Radford, Mrs, G. H. Elliott.

Hullett Township Resident Dies The death occurred last week of Katherine Smith Millen, daughter of the late Solomon and Katherine Mil- len, pioneers of the township. Miss Millen was borer on Lot 29, Conces- sion 13, Hullett, which was the site her parents chose for their home af- ter coming here from Kingston to the days when the old Grand Trunk RaiI- way came only as far as Stratford. Her parents followed a blazed trail from Stratford to the homestead which at that time was only a clear- ing. With them came six of their family, the three younger members being born on the homestead. Miss Millen was a home loving person and had spent her entire life on the homestead. She was identified with the Londes'horo Presbyterian church, later United. She had been inpoor health for some time and of late had been confined to bed. Three weeks ago her condition became ser- ious and she was removed to Godericl hospital where death occurred. Of a family of nine, the only surviving member is her sister, Mrs. M. L Annis of Woodville. The funeral service was held at the Lodge Funeral Parlors, Goderich last Thursday with interment in the family plot in Union cemetery. W.O.S.S.A.
