The Ontario Hydro -Electric Power Commission, in a message to the Seaforth Commission, points out that consumption has reached an all-time high, and that co-operation of consumers in conserving energy is necessary in order to ensure continued service without rationing. Your Commission urges, therefore, that each consumer in Seaforth, dur- ing the next eight-week period — the critical period— undertake a pro- gram of voluntary conservation, par- ticularly between the hours of 11 a.m. to 12 a.m. noon, and 4 p.m. to 6 p.m. A CONTINUANCE OF THE ALL-OUT SUPPORT AND ICO -OPERATION YOU HAVE GIVEN THE COMMISSION ON PAST OCCASIONS IS URGED DURING THE COMING WEEKS ! Seaforth Public Utility Commission PHONE 100-3 SEAFORTH DUBLIN CONTINUATION SCHOOL NEWS We spent a few hours after four one day last week shovelling off a local pond. That evening• some good fellows, the sports around „tow, helped to flood it. Then our luck turned and the storm put a damper on our skating. Things are looking up now though. Practice is in full swing for our Christmas concert '(on the 21st). Many of the players know their parts already — congrat u l a t i o ns! We thought things were bad when the girls started singing but apparently the boys sound worse, or do they? After the first practice one of our teachers came in and told us, quite confidentially that she was sure the train had jumped the tracks, well boys? The Athletic Association dance on Thursday night made Friday a tough day for some of the students. The tired, bleary, out -all-night look in the eyes of the revellers told plainly who they were. The suspense is over, or should I say, just beginning, concerning the exams, the date is set for Dec. 15th, A small amount of intensive study is being done already and we hope this amount will increase as the time of preparation shortens, Maybe we'll all get high marks for Christmas pre- sents !! Who knows? Maurice Dillon and his associates, Helen Nolan, Alice Feeney, Kathleen Roach and Paul Kramers raised a to- tal of eleven dollars during Novem- ber for our Mission Society. This month Ron Butters hopes everyone has a generous Christmas spirit as he is out to better the Dillon record.
