There k also the added advantage of having the snow outside the fences not packed down so if one of the braver steers does try and wander away he could quite possibly sink up to his belly in snow. Photo by McKinley Varna At the annual Seaforth Broomball Tournament last weekend the Parr Line Men's team was put out on Saturday, but the ladies team went to the semi-finals, and were defeated by the Chiselhurst team on Sunday. The February meeting of the Varna United Church Women was postponed for one week due to bad weather. It's a small world! A week ago Sunday Mr. and Mrs. Bill Parker, of Bayfield, who were holidaying in Clearwater, Florida, went to church, Sitting beside them were Rev. and Mrs. Alex Taylor. Mel and Lila Webster who spent 10 days in Hawaii also had chance meetings with people from home. They met Arnold and Nora Keys on the street in Honolulu; and also ran into Mr. & Mrs. Bill Campbell of Seaforth. They enjoyed their stay in Hawaii very much and stayed at the Rainbow Towers, . where they could look out over the ocean on one side and the busy airport on the other. On their tours of the island they visited Pearl Harbour and the Mormon Temple, saw the pineapple and sugar plantations, and large beeflots. They returned home February 3. Charles and Bernice Reid returned home last week from a holiday in Florida. Ice carnival in Varna Residents of Stanley Township are invited to the Ice Carnival to be held on Saturday, February 12 at the Varna Arena.

The winners to be awarded the Orange Lodge Trophy which the ladies won last year. The final event will be a broomball game for men and boys.

Poor weather conditions caused the meeting to be postponed several times. At the meeting Stanley council rejected a request from Tuckersmith council that Stanley pay a portion of the costs of the Day Care Centre in Vanastra. Stanley clerk Mel Graham said while Stanley may have one or two families using the day care centre they are not sure exactly how many there are. Council did pass a resolution concerning taxation. The resolution calls for an amend- ment to the provincial tax laws to allow village and town taxes on homes and property to be an ex- pense on a person's income tax. A bylaw to borrow up to $210,000 to use as funds until the taxes are collected was passed. Council approved grants of $35 to the Huron Central Agricultural Society, $20 to St. John's Ambulance and $20 to the Onario March of Dimes. Last year Stanley was allotted a further $40,000 for tile drainage to raise the total amount given out in tile drainage loans in the township to $126,600. This raised the percentage loans given out last year from 60 percent with a $4,000 limit to 75 percent with no limit. Starting March 15 hearings will be held on Stanley's secondary plan in the Varna hall at 8 p.m. The hearings will be held every Tuesday evening beginning March 15 and running for five weeks all at the same time and place.
