SPORT SHORTS
During the past week the Seaforth
Baldwins shoved London Lou Balls
farther and farther into the Jr. B.
cellar. On Thursday night the locals
toppled the Lou Balls 5-3 in the best
action -packed game of. the season
play on Seaforth ice. Although the
London invaders opened the scoring

they were not able to hold the strong
hand past the half -way mark of the
game. Jack Mellwain paced the goal
getting with a pair while Mac Gran-
voile was the fast man for the losers.
Saturday night in the Forest CitY
was a complete contrast to the
Thursday night performance. With
Red Geddis back in the coaching
box the London kids couldn't do a
thing. A landslide loss of 20-2, Lon
Ball and staff pondered the idea of
the coaching situation. The big goal
jamboree came in the last twenty
minutes when Seaforth rifled twelve
into the London nets with hi reply.
With this collapse, it looks as if the
Lou Balls will be the boys sitting
on the sidelines when it comes to
play-off time.
On Saturday night in the evening
double-header the Seaforth Bantams
continued their winning streak as
they stepped past the Exeter Lions
11-7. Although both clubs stuck
close in the first two periods, Sea -
forth jumped away out in front in
the final frame. Berger and Mason
led the Seaforth attack, while anost
of the work was left to Horn on the
Exeter squad.
In the second game of the night,
the Seaforth Midgets and the Kin-
cardine six battled it out in one of
the best sixty minutes of hockey this
season. Both clubs battled it out
hard and fast, but the oncoming
Kincardine crew could not overthrow
the Seaforth lead, as the locals came
out on top 5-3.

JANUARY MEETING
OF SEAFORTH W. I.
The January meeting of the Sea -
forth W. I. was held on Tuesday,
Jan. 12 at the home of Mrs. Alex
Pepper with a good attendance. The
president, Mrs. Pepper, presided for
the regular opening exercises. The
roll call was answered by a form
of politeness I admire, several feel-
ing that men could be a little more
polite to their girl friends and
wives, Letters of thanks were read
from Mrs. J. Elgie, Mrs. K. Web-
ster, Mrs. G. McKenzie, Donna Gor-
don, A. E. Crozier, and the Child-
ren's Aid Society, as well as greet-
ings from Kippen East W. I„ Zurich
W.I., Crediton W. I., Hurondale W.
I., Mrs. Wm. Johns. An invitation
was received from the Children's
Aid Society to attend a meeting at

Friday, Jan. 15th
The program on Citizenship and
Education under the direction of
Mrs. G. Papple, opened with singing
"Home on the Range" Mrs. Paul
Doig very ably dealt with the motto
"Don't waste time looking at your
hill, climb it". To do this is a sign
of childishness. If we try our best
we can tackle a thing and do it and
when people do their best, provi-
dence usually steps in ao help. Mrs.
David Ritchie was the guest speaker
and chose as her subject, Robert
Burns, very fitting for the January
meeting. Burns is honored as one of
the world's greatest sons, and we
will be celebrating his 200th birth-
day in five years. He was .the oldest
of seven children and as a child and
young man knew great poverty and
hardship. Independence was one of
his great ideals, and he rebelled
against man's inhumanity to man.
His untimely death at 37 was due
largely to early poverty and hard-
ships. Robert Burns was a great
man, great perhaps in his weakness,
but great also in his strength and
the world will always celebrate his
birthday as Scotland's greatest na-
tional poet and ane of the greatest
poets of all time.
Mrs. Elmer Cameron favored with
some Scottish music and Mrs. E.
Whitmore moved the vote of thanks
to the hostess and those taking part
in the program. The meeting closed
with the Queen and a social half
hour was enjoyed.

A Rush Job
Is Never A Good Job
Now is the time to have your grain cleaned for seed.
The cleaning plant operator can do a better job when
he is not rushed. Many plants offer a discount on
cleaning in January and February.
Seed drill surveys reveal that one farmer in every
four uses substandard (rejected) seed. Don't plant
weeds. They cost more than taxes.
PLAN YOUR SEED REQUIREMENTS
NOW
Use registered or certified grades of the improved high
yielding disease free varieties suitable to your district.
The seal on the bag is your insurance of quality,
germination and variety,
The few extra cents spent on sealed seed is good
insurance against low yields.
