Yet she is just a moment away — always alert and ready for help — at the other end of your telephone. Normally, should you want to make sure that every- thing is all right at home you just call your sitter, or have her call you. But situations do arise when your sitter, or you, or anyone may be faced with an emergency. Then a direct call to Operator can bring help in a hurry. She is -there to serve you — to help make the tele- phone a guardian of your security and your peace of mind.

The new kitchen was dedicated. Mrs. J. A, Munn opened the WO t ceremony with a "poem entitled, "The Divine Office of the Kit- chen," by Cecily Holleck. Mrs. F.

The speaker for the afternoon was Miss Gertrude Wilkes, of the Children's Aid Society in Gode- rich. Her veryinteresting talk consisted of answering questions which are most often asked by people under the following head- ings: Why and when they take children from homes; why foster homes are so important, and how they are picked, a love of children being the most important factor. Many parents are helped and ,homes reinstated; how unmarried mothers and • their babies are ad- vised and helped; how department of Official Guidance helps; how. juvenile delinquents are helped and guarded in the courts. All felt they had learned a lot about the won: derful work the Children's Aid 'So- ciety does in the County of Huron. Mrs. J. Scott moved a vote of thanks to the speaker and, all tak- ing part -in the meeting. Mrs. M. R. Rennie and Mrs: E. J.

'�i '' r i S `With .genn,e0M2ada 74* over;. one CAA say tbt t -,.hockey tas writ-, tett, its final chapter for this seasQ ., We, in Seaforth,, can .be. Proud of, the Pee -Wee entry, sponsored by the Canadian Legion, Branch. a gt n h 1 S6, in their fine display at :Goderich, as they reached the semi-finalsin series "0". Despite the 9-1 defeat at the' hands of the Timiskaming team, the boys put up a strong bid, but had to bow to the better team. Congratulations go to the local. Legion in sponsoring the team, and also to hard-working Jack Eisler, who did a magnificent job of coach- ing the team. With the Legion sponsoring sports for the youth in Seaforth and district, I feel that everyone of us should back .the Legion to the fullest in their en- deavours. In this way Seaforth and strict fans alike can show their 1ppreciation for the great work carried on by the local Legion, and to assist them in further ef- forts of helping the youth to be- come solid citizens. § § Curling for the season has come to a successful end, and so with the corning of Spring, out goes the ice for another season, and in comes the summer activities which, we hope, will usher in some form of ball for the local fans. §, § Streets are cleared of snow now but need a good rain to clear them of muck and dirt. Some roads are breaking up and are taking quite a beating. It appears they'll need a lot of work this year to get them back in shape. Sidewalks in some sections will need work, and . no doubt this year's council will have a busy time. When are we going to get rid of the dogs that are roaming the streets and lawns of the town? That, my friends, is the hue and cry of many of the citizens these days. Just the other morning I saw six roaming over the neigh- bor's Lawn. Sunday morning there were more fighting and scramb- ling around. Where these mongrels all come from, I do not know, but they certainly are a nuisance. Lit- tle children are almost afraid to go away from the verandahs or lawns with these dogs running around in all directions. I don't know whether these dogs have tags or not, but despite this it is a fact that some of them must be strays from the country, for I hardly be- lieve that so many town dogs are let run wild. It is sufficient to say that the matter should be looked after and cleared up in the very near future. Is this the town's re- sponsibility? Let us have action and protect our children from these roamers. There is another§matter that has come to my attention the past week since the snow has left Main Street, and it is the sidewalk ider. Easter Sunda th bicycle r y ere were at least two of them, and they were teenagers.

The second one was follow- ing close behind and imitated the first youth. It is difficult enough at times for pedestrians to traverse Main Street without bicycles being on the walk too, but when they fly in and out with lit'ile regard for people, it is high time the authori- ties stepped in and put a stop to it, before someone is hurt or some damage is done on the street. Whoever is responsible in lookingafter this matter should start now and put a stop to it in order to protect the customers coming to shop, and also the mer- chant whose store front may be damaged. § § BUSINESS AND PROFESSION,. �.

However, we can be thankful that it was on- ly a skiff, for reports from other places stated that some 16 inches of snow fell over the weekend. The snow here was all gone by Sunday afternoon, and with the grass turn- ing green and flowers starting to peek through the ground, Spring most definitely is here. JOHN A.
