Ament in the chair at the annual meeting of the Game and Fish ,Association • on Friday evening at the town hall. Mr. Ament to a few well chosen words after calling the meeting to order at 8.30, pointed out that the Club since its inception just. one year ago, had done really good work, a full report of which would be given by the secretary. Secretary C. P. Sills after' first reading his treas- urer's report, which showed a fair bal- ance to the good, then took up the work done, under the thea headings of Fish, Ganie- and Reforestation. Mr. Sills pointed but that the first object of the Association was the propaga- tion and protection of wild lire in Huron County. It did not mean neces- sarily that members' would receive immediate -benefits, but rather we were building for ,the future so that our younger generation would enjoy the wild life just aa then' fathers did when they were children. Some eight thousand fingerlings, brown and speckled trout, had been placed in' five different streams. Where these streams had been of the "fishedout"I variety, then the Club had asked that these be "closed" for at least two. years to have a chance of a come- back. This year 12,000 had been ap- plied for and no doubt will .be'plant- ed in due course. In the matter of game birds, Mr. Sills expressed on be- half of the Club, his appreciation and thanks to the Regier Bros. and Mr. Tony Phillips in the providing of some 300 pheasant eggs for propaga- tion purposes, These were nearly all given to children of the various schools of the district through their school teachers and for a first try we have had good results. This year the Club will ask the school teachers to apply, not only for pheasant eggs but also for wild duck eggs. Settings will be given free to all school children desiring same. This is a new experi- ment in wild life propagation. Regard- Ing Reforestation, the secretary said otu' hope lay in educating the child- ren in not only its advantages, but also its necessity in Huron County,' and every effort will be made to help this education. Chairman of Fish Committee, Scott Hawthorne, then outlined the work done by his committee, a really good job for the first year, Tony Phillips, chairman of the Gaine Committee, had also a short report on his work. To round out a very pleasant evening, the secretary had secured through the Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunter's, reels of film on fishing and hunting, which Mr, J, M. Scott kindly consented to operate and for which he received a hearty vote of thanks. Officers for 1945 Were all re- elected: Pres, Wm. Arent; vice pros., W. J. Duncan; secty.-treas., C. P. Sills; chairman fish committee, Scott Hawthorne; chairman of game committee, Tony- Phillips; chairman extension committee, Amos Corby.

Pinkney, formerly of Seaforth: A real war veteran with close to five years and: seven months of ser- vice to his credit at the age of 22 years—that is Pte. John P. Pinlsney, numbered among the Hamiltonians I reaching home on rotation leave. Only 16 years of age when lie en- listed with the No. 5 Field Ambul- ance early in September, 1939, Pte. Pinkney served continuously with his unit during the long training per- iod in Britain, was with it for the Sicilian landing and later during the 1st Canadian Division advance as part of the British 8th Army north- ward on the Italian mainland. Latterly as an ambulance atten- dant, Pte. Pinkney, whose father William Pinkney, is a pensioner from World War I, in which he serv- ed with the 1st Canadian Battalion, experienced many exciting 'incidents. His ambulance was required to op- erate between advanced first-aid posts and the unit's dressing station with casualties relayed from front line areas by jeeps. Frequently un- der shell and mortar fire, he never was injured. Army life certainly has agreed with hint.
