The changes that we would likewould be that wheels and tires be ' standardized so that they could be interchangeable on different types of anachinery. Also standard sizes .and types of mower guards and knives. 'Mrs. Bert SJoggart invited the 'group for next week. Most games, Mrs, 'Oliver ;Anderson and ,Bob Jamieson; lone hands Mrs. Joe Babcock and •Berk Hoggart; consolation, :Mts. Har- vey Taylor and Joe Babeoek.
