BRYANS) • . The familiar atmosphere of the annual "At Home" dance prevails at Seaforth High this week. Daily meetings of one committee or an- other have occupied many noon hours and tenth periods during the last week. The lunch committee has met several times separately, to make tickets and organize shifts of waitresses, The check room committee has been planning a more efficient system of checking. Racks are being made and check tickets have been printed. The re- freshment committee has lined up'' its duties. There has been no men- tion of a clean-up committee as of yet. but volunteers are always available when they find lots to eat and drink the morning after the dance. The gymnasium. is littered with Taper as L`'ic decorating commit- tee storms the school. P,T. class- es and other activities requiring the gym have been cancelled. The main attractions of the decorating sire a large bull's headwith sil- ver horns spanning about five feet, and a giant golden guitar, about eight feet long, On the walls of the auditorium are cactii plants, pottery and colorful South Ameri- can people in large sombreros. Other decorations, including bal- loons and streamers, fit in with the theme, "South America". The decorators are using an extra- ordinary contraption to decorate the ceiling of the auditorium. It is made of the two sections of a 25-fo. t extension ladder, tied at top and bottom in step -ladder fashion. At each foot is a rubber hoot to prevent slipping, and a bench 10 feet long to balance it. With guy ropes dangling and sag- ging in every direction. it is truly an "engineer's nightmare." Neil Broadkoot fell from it while decorating on' Monday night. Luck- ily he landed on his feet, receiving N -O -T -E! There will be no Indus- trial hockey Monday Night, January 28th.

Later that day a postscript had been added, which read: "Why don't they give us numbers too?" Th.s is the first sign of concern about the declining school spirit. The Students' Council should not neglect this question. $ $ Betty Jean Andrews is dancing at CKNX on the Burns' Show Fri- day afternoon at 3:00. $4 Sports -Basketball Sports are back, in the news again.

The period of Meditations was taken by Mrs. D. Ritchie, who chose as her subject, "What Can We Give To Christ?" "One thing we can give," she said, "is the gift of self-sacrifice." She told of some of her experiences in Scot- land. She urged for peace be- tween ourselves and God, and good will and kindnesses to those about us. The minutes were read by the secretary, Miss Belle Campbell. Reports. were given by the offi- cers. These reports showed that a very successful year .had been enjoyed by most of the auxiliaries.

First question for discussion was: "Do you feel that obtaining parity income is the most important problem in agri- culture?" The group thought it was the most important. Second question, "What other problems are of urgent' importance?" was answered by: a more flexible cred- it policy, also to have enough money left to pay interest and ex- penses.

PARR LINE FORUM Parr Line Farm Forum met at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Soldan with 16 members present. The topic for discussion was, "Is Parity Income Enough?" After listening ,to the radio broadcast, the forum discussed the questions in the pamphlet. Question 1: Do you feel 'that obtaining parity income is, the most important problem in agri- culture? Answer: Yes, we be- lieve the parity income is the most important problem facing the farmers today. Question 2: What other prob- lems are of urgent importance? Answer: Farm Credit, We believe that if credit was available it would help farmers to become 'ef- ficient. Lack of capital is the one stumbling block to farmers, es- pecially young farmers starting on a farm. After the discussion, progressive euchre was enjoyed. The winners were: ladies, Mrs. Charles Robin- son and Mrs. Alf: Reichert; gents, 'Charles Robinson and Ivan Reich- ert. After the euchre the hostess served lunch.

IN�Yt�LL�h ". tak�aa'%'K You will see that we have not improved our position in the last week by losing both games played and now we have only four more games to play-Seaforth in Guelph on Thursday, Jan. 24, and next home game here, Tuesday, Jan. 29, with Waterloo, which. is a very important game for us, if we hope to finish in first position, By fin- ishing in first position, we have the choice of which team we play in the semi-final games; also get the extra game on home ice in both semi-final and final games. This could be very important if either play-off games go to a final or fifth game in a best -of -five game series. Since the Waterloo game here on Tuesday, Jan. 29, is so important to us, we sincerely hope that a l'arge attendance will be on hand to help cheer our team to a victory on this night. Many may not realize what a difference a good crowd can make to a team spirit. This was very notice- able on the night London played here, when only 200 turned out. Please make an effort to give us your support on our, last two games of the season. Your atten- dance will be greatly appreciated by both team -and management. Preparations are going forward for Jack McLlwain Night on Tues- day, February 5. when Guelph plays the final scheduled game in Seaforth. We have had many fav- orable reports on our efforts to make this a memorable night for Jack. Many have asked regarding donations for the public presenta- tion and, as stated before, anyone wishing to donate will please con- tact Thorpe Rivers, as we are not going to solicit donations, and un- less you make your donations ear- ly, Thorpe will be unable to make the necessary arrangements in advance. The Athletic Association are making their own plans, and no funds turned into Thorpe will be used by them. I know how easy it is to let a matter of this kind go from day to day, but please be fair to Thorpe and get your donations in early. $ $ You will see by our financial re- port we are overdrawn for the first time this year. We are de- pending on your support for the purchase of $1.00 booster admis- sion tickets for our booster party,' to be held in the Community Hall on January 31. The Paul Bros. will entertain, and I know every man there will thoroughly enjoy himself, as well as help the Hockey Club and its year with enough finances to pay all its accounts. I stated early in the fall that this year's hockey club would have to be a community effort, and if ev- eryone would give us his support we could and would finish the year without help from our Council. This, then, is our final appeal to you for your continued good sup- port, and I am sure you will ,not let us down, so please get that ticket now and plan on attending our booster party. You will enjoy yourself, I am sure. $ $ Terry Hodgins, who had a bad cut on his foot during the game in St. Marys, is walking again and I hope will soon, be back to help us finish out the season. Bev. Boyes, who injured his leg in the London game here, is recovering, and` as he had no bones broken will soon be out again. 041:i4rdises ' 1400�th��,s: TW lankgt otii$�' ,al(id ' ool Dpi and twemPieee Snow SWt and lweggul$ Sets Stack upnow' of time e c>"A GIRY,S' ' Only 24 Left WINTER COATS All this season's coats in sizes 10 to 20 that sold up to 59.50 that we must clear out now to make way for Spring merchandise.
