The Week At the Seaforth Collegiate Institute
(By Don Scott) ,
The Cavett Club of the Junior Red
Gross held tire!- weekly meeting with
Lois McGavin in the chair. The min-
attes of the Ias:t meeting were read
. and ado pted. The adoption was
made on a rnatiori of Theresa McIver
and He]en Devereaux. Tile report of
the finance committee was. givers. by
the committee chairman, • Marion
Sclater. Several of the girls, offered
to make candy for the soldiers•. Af-
ter this the girls adjourned 'to the
'work rooms.

day. Purchases are still continuing
to keep up to standard.
• And here is a scoop item the
"grapevine."' The Sparkplugs, that
__surprise_.tearp et 1940, who leave only
one loss to their credit, clinched their
bold on second place by trimming
'Ooutt's' aggregation 26-6. The star of
the game was "Hctsirot" Hildebrand.
But an astouarding tact has come t9
light: It seems that the "Sparkphigs"
lost much prestige in their last two
encounters and it was necessary' to
.make • up • for it with an excellent
showing, and so we understand that
when the "Plugs" got going in this
last quarter they persuaded the time-
keepers .to add five minutes to. ;that
last period!—'trhe result, the big scare.

And it.,. is' also urrderstood that a

YOLJIt• GRE.ETIING CARDS
Easy to make with scissors and paste, a headline greeting makes a strik-
ing,
triking, effective, individual card. You'll find other ideal below.
eCHRIS'1MAS means greeting cards
l —and for some of us, so does
New"Year's. I personally am in favor
of both because it's fun to create
unusual cards, and two occasions
offer twice as many opportunities as
one.
Naturally, my.cards are made with
the camera — for there's nothing
more personal than a good photo-
graphic greeting. In recent years, I
have always tried to get the greet
Ing right in the picture, along with
some member of ,the family—or all
of us. There are many novel meth-
ods of doing -this, and most of them
are quite easy.
For example, once we carefully -
stamped out the letters "Merry
Christmas" in the new -fallen snow
on the lawn. it was a sunny day, and
late in the afternoon when the sun
was low the letters showed up quite
well, because of the shadows in
them. We shot the picture, With the
family and the house in the back-
ground—and there was our card.
Another time, we had a snow than
in front of the hou3e, holding a
Placard. He was .striking in favor of
merrier Christmases for ever -body,
and snow the year 'round.
'Once balk when Ann was a baby,
we took her alphabet `blocita and
built a greeting with them. She ap-
peared in the picture, of course,
holding a block in her hand. Every-
body
verybody liked that card so well we re-
lieated,it the next year, with varia-
tions: we took three pictures—each
with an alphabet block message--
saying
essage—saying "Merry Christmas," "Prom
Ann," "And The Family," These
wore printed on special thin photo-
graphic paper, to make a double told
or "French fold" type of card. Any
photoflnisher can show you the right
kind of paper, and how the card is
planned.
Then oae•year we pictured Jack
as a sandwich man, advertising mer
rier Christmases. We have also)
made newspaper paste-ups with big
headlines for the greeting—very ef-
fective in an over -the -shoulder shot.
A friend of oars has uaedOOlat same
idea for his 1Tew Year's cards this
time; they're already made, and
ready to mail when the time comes.
Among those ideas, .yon'ii doubt-
less anti a thd'ught 'fair your calm •
photographic card this' clear. I'll ofcer
jnseone suggestion. Deep the card
sianlile, and do it early, .Christy las
has 'a way of slipping up on us- end
you don't Want your greetings to get
stuck in the holiday rtish.

Save Your Old
License Plales
A plan for the salvaging o:f 1940
automobile license plates by the On-
ario Division 'of the Canadian Red
Cross Society was announced recent-
ly by the Honourable Mitchell F.
Hepburn, Prime Minister of Ontario.
Mr. Hepburn :pointed out that if all
•or nearly all the 1940.plates were re-
covered, the Red Cross funds would
benefit by a• substantial sum and al-
most three Ihrindred tons of scrap
steel would be made available for
war purpose4.
THE BU RON EXPOSITOR
Seafortb, Ontario .
A little girl was put into an upper
berth in a Pullman, for the first time.
She kept whimpering until her mother
told her not to be afraid because the
angels would watch over her-
"Mo•ther. are you there?". she cried
l,laintively. -
"Yes, dear."
And- a few minutes later, "Daddy,
are you there?"
"Yeah-"
• A fellow passenger lost all patience
after so long a time, and bellowed
forth: "We are all .ter•e:' Your daddy
and mother and: brothers andi sisters
acid aunts and uncles an,d cousin's
All here; now go to sleep, little
ore!"
There was a pause, then very soft-
ry: "Mother.''
"Well?"
"Wast that one of the angels?"
"I hope the motorists of Ontario
will co-operate wholeheartedly," said
Mr. Hepburn. "This arrangement
gives them an opportunity to render
effective aid in two ways and at no
cost to themselves. Three hundred
tong of steei would. be an important
aid to the war industries and )life cash
derived from the- sale of the metal
will be" effectively used by the Red
Cross. In the present emergency,
when steel mills are working to ca-
pacity we must avoid waste of ma-
terial and I am sure teat motorists
will support this worthwhile under-
taking:"
ndertaking:"
It is understood that the Red Cross
'Society's plan for the surging of
the old plates ;has been made pos-
sible by the co-operation of Imperial
Oil 'Limited and the members. of the
Automotive Transport Association.
All Im'peri'al Oil service stations will
act as co'l'lecting depots for the plates
and Automotive Transport Associa-
tion members have agreed to trans-
port the collected plates to the steel
mills. Both operations iilre being con-
ducted without charge.
