I don't know whether these peo-
ple on the basketball teams are
being bribed to break their arms
or sprain their ankles, but nev-
ertheless the scores are showing
something. Last Wednesday af-

neyed to Clinton, and the Clinton
boys came here. The result of
the Junior girls' game was 10-6,
with Alice Ann 3, Marelene Ross
2, and Marilyn Taylor 1.
The Senior girls' game was Clin-
ton 36, Seaforth 13. The points
were by Sills 6, Roobol 2, McFad-
den 2, and McFarlene 3.
The boys' games were a little
better, as the Junior boys came
up with a 23-20 win over the Clin-
ton boys. Scoins came up with 10
points, Melady 2, Mason and Mc-
Fadden 10.
The Senior boys' game was 19-10

"better for everyone to try and
fall, than to not try and succeed.
In order to be the girl God would
have you to be, you must make a
lot of decisions throughout your
life, such as: (1) Choosing the pro-
per books to read; (2) choosing
friends who are thought a lot of
in the community; (3) watching
your manners and conduct; (4)
keeping close to God; (5) keeping
in close touch at all times with
your family. Besides these, many
others will have to be made.
However, life can be a happy
one if you make it so. If you be-
come discouraged at some time,
think of the following line: "Un-
derneath are the everlasting
arms."
A vote of thanks was extended
to the guest speaker by Betty
Campbell. A sing -song brought
the meeting to a close.
