March Meetings of Northside Groups GROUP 2 MEETS A much enjoyed pot luck sup- per was held at the home of Mr's. Willis Dundas, Tues. evening by members- 'of Group 2 of North- side W. A. Mrs. Savauge pre- sided opening the meeting with Onward Christian Soldiers. Mrs. Stinson gave a very 'interesting address, The Lure of the Mani- toulin, with picture illustrations. The devotional part was taken by Mrs. Michels, Business part of the .meeting was in charge of Mrs. •Shannon. Roll call was an- swered with an Irish joke, "The pleasanttest things in the world are pleasant thoughts and the great art in life is to have as many of them as possi- ble" was the theme of Mrs. Se- vauge's inspiring message, which was summarized in the following recipe, half a cup of friendship, add one cup of thoughtfulness, cream together with a pinch of powdered tenderness. very light- ly 'beaten in a bowl of loyalty with a cup of faith, one of hope and one of charity. Be sure to add a spoonful of gaiety that sings and also the ability to laugh at little things, moisten with the sudden tears of heart- felt sympathy, bake in a good natured 'pan and serve repeated- ly.

GROUP THREE MEETS EUCHRE & *ASCE Sponsored by Seaforth W.I. in Community Centre FRIDAY, MAR. 4 Euchre starts at 8.30 sharp Dancing to Murdoch's Orchestra All ladies please bring lunch Admission 59c renditions of all the way from six -years old to sixteen -years old, we were compelled to agree that both of these organizations seemed to•be travelling in the right direction, se appeared to be evinced by the hearty ap-. plause following each competi- tor's part in the programme. As a sort of relief to more serious declamations, was a pre- pared talk on "A Hole." It soon developed that a huge hole which could be spoken of as an excava- tion, made within our municipal- ity, must surely refer to our town sewage ditch, dug in the late fall and early winter. Doubt- less, had time permitted, the els. quent young orator, might eas-' ily have expended the idea of "a 'hole" when visiting' our Dent- ist, who would refer to it as a "Cavity" which must be attended to ilnmediately. Or he might have referred to that little open- ing, in a cloister wall, in which a little "billet-doux" is some- times secreted by a trusty friend, "Stone walls do not a prison make, Nor iron bars a cage", Then again, he might conjure up the lair o1 a harmless rodent of our Canadina plains, known colloquially as a 'gopher hole". At another time, when observ- ing his mother with needles and mending materials on her lap, he would 'be informed she was darn- ing the "holes" in his stockings. oing farther afield, while con - envie -Hug that hollowed -out lace on the hillside, ,be recalls that our aboriginal ancestors of - en dwelt in "caves". An exten- ion of small human burrows in- n those more expansive ones, so uge and seasoned by the action f Time, will bring to the mind uch colossal "holes" or caves as he "Mainmoth Cave" of Ken- ucky, with its age-old aceumu- ations of stalagmites and stalac- tes.

COMMENTS ON "A HOLE" We happened to begone of a xrge ' audience assembled last uesday evening Y in the local ublie School auditorium. The casion was the Annual Elocu- on Contests among Public chool and High School pupils ponsored by the School and Gome Organization in conjunc- on with the Lions' Club. As we stened intently to the varied oratorical finding's, we recall a rather relevant story told us by a 'policeman in a Western Prairie town. One evening, about dusk, this policeman while covering his usual "beat" stopped abruptly, on hearing a child crying nearby. Determining to investigate, he proceeded until he stood in front of a modest house whence the sound seemed to come. To a teen-age boy, standing idly by, he remarked, "There seems to be someone in trouble, at this house." "Yes," answefed the lad, "It is my brother crying on ac- count of his mother". "Well, now!" replied the kind- ly disposed cop, "your little bro- ther must be very tender-hearted to feel that way towards his mother." "I think I can explain, sir", was the response. "You see, Kenneth is crying so bitterly on account of his mother. You must understand that mother is almost stone deaf and she is also nearly blind." "Still, I don't quite un- derstand," said the soft-hearted copper. "Sir, it is just like this", an- swered the boy, snuggling clos- er to his new-found friend, "though my mother is almost blind and deaf, she is mending "a hole" in Kenneth's trousers and he has them on!"

The meeting was 'op- ened with the Young Peoples' Purpose. Tile roll call was an- swered 'by 31 'members and the. minutes were read and adopted. We were reminded of the Young Peoples' Leadership Training Weekend on April 23, 24, 25, in Mitchell. The Mitchell Junior Farmers' Play is being presented in Win- throp on Tuesday, March 15th. On Friday, March 11th the Young People are having a 'box social in the basement of Cavan Church. Mary Dennis favoured us with an accordian selection. The scripture was read p by Ken 'Camp- bell, and Mr. Livingstone led in prayer. Larry Wheatley gave the topic "Stewardship and Train- ing" giving the 3 main points as "Time, Money and Ability." He asked, Are we going to be faithful Stewards or unfaithful Stewards? and stated, you can never live the same moment twice, One important question which comes up is, Ilow can we use our abilities that we have hidden. Teenagers think that 'money is the key to happiness in life, but there are other things more important. He concluded his topic with the proverb, "The Lord Loveth a cheerful giver". Hymn. 490 was sung and the benediction repeated. Recreation and a sing song were enjoyed. Lunch was served and the meet- ing was closed with "Taps".
