Last week a certain -fifth form boy
was seen in "No. 9" with his arms

first form girl. On Tuesday this was
topped off by a quarter -back and a
snap leaving the bus smeared .with
lipstick which had come from two of
the fairer cheer -leaders.

`FINISH THE JOB'
To Equip and Install Artificial Ice'
in the New Seaforth and District
MEMORIAL RECREATION CENTRE
• Construction is progressing swiftly at the new Seaforth and District.
Community Memorial Recreation Centre. Ample funds are available, for
this phase of the program, through $10,000 donation from. the Local
Branch, Canadian Legion, Government Grant and Town Debentures,
making a Total of $60,000.
• But to put Seaforth far out in fr6nt, we must raise an additional
$30,,000 to paint and equip the Memorial Centre, grade and gravel ample
parking space, and to install an ARTICIFIAL ICE PLANT.
• Property owners of Seaforth, paying their share through taxation,
are asked to donate, and will donate, in a generous way to finish the job.
• It is squarely up to the others, not affected' by the payment of deben-
tures, to do their fair share too.
•
It means that. 3,000 people must donate an average of $10.00 each to
reach this objective,
• We ask our rural friends, in the area to be served by this . centre, to
welcome the canvasser, and to be truly liberal in their donations.
• Receipts for charitable donations, deductible from taxable income will
be given for .all donations of $5.00 or multiples thereof. These receipts
will also serve as admission tickets to the "Big Feather Party" Dec. 7th
when $2,500 worth of grand prizes will be donated to the lucky Door Prize
winners.
• Don't put the canvasser off with $5.00. Make it $10.00 Or $20.00 or,
more, and you'll know you're pulling your share of the load.
