SPLENDOUR OF THE NORTH—On April 1st the Royal Canadian Engineers celebrated the tenth anniversary of assuming control of the scenic Northwest Highway, a 1,220 mile stretch of road linking Dawson Creek, B.C., with the Alaska border. It was near the above scene of Lake Kluane and Sheep Mountain, north of Whitehorse, Y.T., that the U.S. Army officially turned over the large maintenance task. Battling against the elements for the past 10 years, the army en- gineers have established the road as one of the best major all-weather highways in Canada. • f 111�f1 ontri1iniou i11u!i f flimntoiuuIKII, 1 HURONDALE WOMEN'S INSTITUTE NAMES OFFICERS FOR NEW YEAR Thames Road United Church was the setting Wednesday for the an- nual meeting of Hurondale Wo- men's Institute, preceded with a supper.

We have one word left for hockey, despite the fact it is al- most Spring! -A report in the Clin- ton News -Record interested us very much, and we'll pass it on to the public for what it is worth. According to the financial report released last week, we see the sea- son was a successful one for the Clinton club. Total receipts were $2,118.67; major expenditures were for equipment and repairs, $685, and W.O.AA. share of gates $222, leaving a balance of $858.11. Clin- ton officials claim the main reason for the successful season was a complete "homebrew" club. § § As a youngster, have you ever wondered who cuts the barber's hair, or who pulled the dentist's molars, and doctored the doctor? Well. it still is intriguing to find the answer to this problem, but if you should happen by that huge win- dow of Syd's place, you might get an eyefull. It just could happen at that particular time when no one else is around that either Lorne or Syd is comfortably seated in those easy chairs having the ears lowered. "Clippers at' the back; Sir?" That also makes us won- der about the dentist, and who wouldn't like to hear one dentist ask the other, "Tell me, Sir, does it hurt?" § § Here is a little human interest story. It happened down south where some areas are flooded. A man was finishing his bath when he pulled the plug out. To his surprise, out popped a snake. It swam around his legs, and lo and behold, before he got out of the tub, the snake bit his big toe. Af- ter rushing• for help, he found the snake still swimming in the tub, but to his relief he was told it was a non-poisonous one. Who knows maybe it could happen here. Gosh! Just put in a bath tub last year . . . look out, Hagan!

The breakneck banks, the slopes of slime, The rugged rocks, I used to climb So easily, but how they differ, They're mighty steep, now that I'm stiffer. The stinging sleet, the scorching sung The wailing wind, are not much fun, From each of them in turn.I suffer Now that I am an ancient buffer. The portly pigs, the chewing cows, The staring sheep, all make such rows, Did that blare come from bull or heifer? I'd better mind, now that I'm deafer. The kinking knot, the fiddling flies, The nylon noose, all try my eyes, In foiling them I once delighted, They're just plain hell, now I'm shortsighted. ENVOI McKILLOP The April meeting of the W.M.S. and W.A. was held in the church on Wednesday, April 18. Mrs. Ross Gordon, the W.A. president, took the first part of the meeting.
