The town pupils, plus the stranded country pupils, plowed their way through the snow to the arena for skating first, and then to the school after, where a dance to records and a lunch of cokes and long johns were enjoyed. The country students who went to Goderich last Wednesday to play basketball and the ones who stayed in town to play, .had the misfortune of spending the night in town. When on Thursday the buses eouldn't get in and the roads were blocked, it was a gloomy school. After all, who ever heard of school with no country stu- dents? If we didn't learn anything on Thursday, just think of the fun it was not to have any homework! On Wednesday afternoon, Jan. 26, the Seaforth basketball teams got a trouncing by both the boys and girls Goderich basketball team. In the games played in Goderich, the Goderich Seniors gave the Seaforth Seniors a 55-15 loss. The points for Seaforth were: Williams 3, Smith 1, Dinsmore 2, McMichael 4,_ Rowland 3; and Spittal 2. The Junior boys' score was a little closer, but the Goderich team was still away in the lead, 39-20.

Married Couples Brodhagen Group, Elect Officers The annual meeting of the Stew- ards of the Christian Home, the married couples group of St. Pet- er's Lutheran Church, Brodhagen, was held on Friday evening in the church basement. Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Hicks, Mr. and Mrs. Wilbur Hoegy and Mr. and Mrs. Mervin Hodgert were in charge of the de- votions. The topic was a panel discussion based on four resolu- tions from the Bible, with Mrs. Hicks as moderator. Prayer was offered by Mervin Hodgert and Ralph Hicks, and a poem was read by Mrs. Hodgert. George Jarmuth, the president, presided for the business. The minutes of the last meeting were read by the secretary, Edgar El- ligson, and the roll call and treas- urer's report by Ralph Fischer. It was decided to draw up a skat- ing schedule, which will be posted at the rink in the sheds, and mem- bers of this group will take turns to look after the rink.

Hangman to condemned golfer: "Have you anything to say be- fore we hang you?" Golfer: "Yes, do you mind if I take a couple of practice swings?" COMBINED IN ONE PERSON (Continued fromPage 2) matter .how lightly made, may be repeated and achieve a false im- portance. There is the possibil- ity that. royalty may somehow be used on involved in other people's private calculations and be cheap- ened in the process. It means that a real feeling of relaxation in company is a rare luxury. Princess Margaret's friends are an amiable and intelligent collec- tion of young people; they are conventional, in the sense of be- lieving in moderation and in obed- ience to the accepted forms of so- cial • behavior. But they carry these habits lightly, are lively minded and regard conversational dullness almost as a form of bad manners. It is a circle in which any form of excess is forbidden. She never abandons her pre-eminence nor 'wishes to; there is no loose scan- dal talk or even gossip; but its atmosphere is not false or con- strained; she discerns and dis- likes what is bogus or pretentious and possesses the wit and quick- ness to discourage it on sight. What private life, and private visiting, the Royal Family has is that of the large country house. This is not necessarily a snobbish life, with rank considered above talent; it certainly entails fastid- iousness in the choice of friends, and its long suit is a cheerful un- willingness to see any particular avocation as superior to itself. It is a more responsible life than that of a mere money magnate, but a less arduous life than that of the modern administrative class; a more normal life than that of the artist or intellectual, Storage of Farm Machinery The useful life and service of many farm machines is shorten- ed through the lack of proper pro- tection and safe storage, states G. L. Byers, Department of Agricul- tural Engineering, Ontario Agri- cultural College. Since most mar chines are used only a few weeks each season, their total period of annual service is rather short. However, the chief enemies of machines -decay, rust and cor- rosion -are active the year round. Today, there are available to the farmer rust -proofing com- pounds which are doing an excel- lent job in protecting exposed sur- faces on farm machinery from the elements. These compounds can be applied quickly and easily by means of a brush or rag, or diluted and sprayed on with a simple spray atomizer. A small amount of time, effort, and expense given to the protection of farm im- plements will return dividends in the form of improved perform- s ance, longer service, ease of op- r eration, and lower operating costs. Seedbed preparation machines should have all dirt removed and the polished surfaces thoroughly coated with a rust -proofing com- pound. Grain drills should have all seed and fertilizer removed from the drill, since any grain or fertilizer left in the hopper will collect and hold moisture. This in turn will rot wood and corrode met- al. The drill should be stored in a dry place, set level with a board under the drill in the event of its being stored on a dirt floor. Any polished part should be coated with,,a rust preventative. Harvesting machines should be thoroughly cleaned and inspected, worn parts replaced and the machinery returned to a service- able condition. Knotters and such mechanisms should be coated with a grease or a rust ,preventative. Guard points and exposed cutting parts should be covered to protect workers and livestock. Canvas conveyors, etc., should be thor- oughly cleaned, dried and stored in a dry place, protected place away from rodents, birds, poul- try, etc. Even though a machine is clean- ed, reconditioned and lubricated when placed in storage, it needs to be cleaned again and thoroughly lubricated when removed from storage and restored to service. but ppoaaibly a less entertaining life than that of, say, the theatri- cal profession or of enthusiasts of any kifnd, Just because it is not a special- ized life, but is a's balanced as that of a man who enjoys his foot- ball, his walk, his television, week end gardening, the company of his children and the conversation of his acquaintances, it is a life the charms of which almost any- one, except those put off by envy, can easily appreciate. The Princess, then, is not a Bohemian, although she has musi- cal and theatrical talents. She is not an intellectual, not any expert in any special subject, although she is better educated and much quicker -witted than most. To her mother she owes not only a most sensible upbringing but her sense of humor that is as definite an asset in a royal as in any other kind of person.' With an instinctive desire to remain within the decent conven- tions, there goes a love of things that are British. Her religion is part of these feelings. She has studied it with an unusual care; her devotion to it was much strengthened by her father's death; she practises it without ostenta- tion. It is a part of the serious- ness with which she approaches her life. The fulfilment of official duties, which occupies the larger part of her time, indeed calls for serious- ness. It is no easy matter to confront and converse with an endless series of mayors, presi- dents of guilds and societies, win- ners of prizes and ordinary unas- sorted humanity. The wrong way to carry out these duties is auto- matically, unintelligently: Prin- cess Margaret who never pretends that she knows more than she knows, treats all her official func- ions as an opportunity to learn, as a potentially enjoyable occa- sion. Since she came of age, in 1951, Princess Margaret has conscious- ly dedicated herself to her role in society. . She is Y a person for whom life cannot be easy, for whom the future holds many personal prob- lems. That she has the affections and respect of all who know her is evidence of how far she has al- ready succeeded in mastering the strange circumstances of her life. Among her closest friends she has chosen some with experience wide enough and sufficient acu- men to help her become what she wishes to be, a princess who un- derstands, who helps, who enjoys. As she gains confidence, she will give more and more to the community -pleasure to the pub- lic by her fulfilment of public du- ties, patronage to artists and so- cial workers by her interest in their work, and to all who meet her that particular feeling of occa- ion that even the most sophisti- cated get from the presence of oyalty, when royalty and grace re combined in one person. It is much to be hoped that she will have as happy a life as any rincess of fiction -we wish her very success in the journey she s about to undertake and in all her other undertakings. t Brussels W.I.
