This Weak At the Seaforth Dlrutet UI& (By SHE/LA McFADDEN) Last Wednelday afternoon the four Seaforth basketball teams played scheduled gams. The boys journeyed to Wingham, while the Seaforth 'girls were host to the Wingham girls. Of the four games which were played, three were lost Ind the other was won (?) by an official foul. This game was the Senior girls' game, and the 're- sults of this game -are still being batted back and forth so perhaps the result will be known next week. The Junior boys went down 39-28 under the hand of the Wingham Junior boys. The scorers for Sea - forth were: Mason 7, Uhler 2, Riley 1, Eckenswiller' 6, James 5 and McMaster 7.

The points for the Senior girls were: Ruth Sills 2, Isabel Lydiatt 4, Sheila Mc- Fadden 2, Verda Watson 3, Mar- lene Ross 2, and Audrey Hackwell 1. $ $ On Friday afternoon, "Jackie Gleason's stageshow - and the• Jackie • Gleason Show” made its DUBLIN NEWS The. following is the address read on the recent occasion of a presentation to Mr. Martin Feeney: Dear Martin: We have gathered here tonight to express our ap- preciation of your many years of service on the School Board. You have worked diligently and• have given freely of your time for very little personal ,gain. And just a word to you, Mrs. Feeney: When the hot summer days roll around, Martin can't say: "Mary, I have to go to a school meeting. Would you milk this last old cow and fin- ish the separating!"

Congregational Supper To Mark Kitchen Opening The February Meeting of the Ladies' Aid was held in First Pres- byterian Church with Mrs. H. Whyte in the chair. Mrs. R. R. Mc- Kindsey opened the meeting with a suitable poem. The secretary's and 'treasurer's reports were read andopted. A motion 'to prov- vide. for a congregational pot -luck suriper to open and view the new kitchen was moved and adopted, and a tea was suggested for a lat- er date'. Mrs. F. Kling sang a pleas- ing solo, "In the Garden of To- morrow," accompanied by Mrs. McGregor. The speaker for the afternoon was Miss Belle Campbell, who gave a very interesting talk on Mrs. Dyer, of Wyevale, who al- though the- mother of a large fam- ily, found time to write a number of stories for Sunday School papers, both in Canada and the United States, as well as articles to the Homemaker's Page of the Globe and Mail. Miss Campbell told the story Mrs. Dyer had writ- ten about Corporal Cameron and the Power of Prayer. Several years -ago Miss Campbell had sent differ- ent interesting incidents of her own childhood to Mrs. Dyer, who wove a story around them. This was one 'of them and brought home very forcibly the power of prayer in bane of great need—in this a bad fire on a farm set by a mis- chievous boy who learned his les- son. • The Kerslake - Mekindsey group had charge of the meeting -Mrs. Kerslake flibtr'ed a tete Of thanks to.tiiose takintairt A social half hbuk ,'Gas enjoy dv , • ' it#J, OF.

Friendly Few' Forum The Friendly Few Forum met at the home of • Mr. and Mrs. Earl Lawson with an attendance of 16. The topic for the evening was "Father and Son Partnership," and, after listening to the broad- cast, two groups were formed for discussion and the questions in the Guide were answered. Progressive euchre was played, with the -prizes for most games going''to Ronnie and Dennis Jew- itt, and consolation prizes to Mar- gery and Bill Dale. Lunch was served by Mrs. Frank Riley, and the next meeting will be held at the home of Mrs. Bill Dale: first°and unannounced appearance on the auditorium stage during assembly. The "June Taylor" dancers opened.the show (as us- ual) with a new pattern of- danc- ing,resembling that of the bunny hop. The entertainment was quite good and different- Doris John- ston was imported from Clinton and kept her audience contented by solos on the merimba. The Dor- sey Brothers were ;nesters of cer- emonies; their one likeness was quite prominate—one was tall, the other was short. While the audience waited and anticipated the coming show, Marion Mc- Llwain, as mistress of ceremon- ies, persuaded the spectators to buy a beautiful sleek Buick to match one's pencil—a most unus- ual and unpractical idea. At last the "Jackie Gleason" show came on. Charlie Dungey, as Mr. GIeason himself, acted his part superbly and could bang his fist, shout at the top of his lungs and bawl out his friend, Ed. Nor- ton, almost as well as the "mad- man" himself. Bob Snell, as the man from the sewer, made every- one laugh just at the sight of him, but where he learned to speak like Norton -well, you would not have been able to distinguish. the fake from the real macoy. Beatrice Siemon played the quiet Alice very well, and, as usual, won at the end of the story. Just what has Mr. Gleason got against beans? The Valentine dance, which was to have been on Tuesday, has been cancelled; due to the Junior Far- mers having possession of the gym ,that night. The high school's dance has had to be put back one night, and will now be held on Monday, Feb. 13. However, the same prices and regulations which were to have been placed on the Tuesday dance, will still be on Monday's dance. This dance will be the last dance before the Easter examinationsi However, the Girls' ,Athletic Asso- ciation has set a Sadie Hawkins' sock hop for April 13—a Friday night, .thefirst after the holidays. $ $ The photography committee for the Year Book has placed a num- ber of photographs on the bulletin board.

Huron Vets Plan Memorial Book An organization that will have as its objective the composition of a memorial book recording names of all Huron County veterans from World Wars I and II, came into being at a meeting in Goderich over the weekend.
