"SCOTTY" HUME Recreation Director I would like to say "Thank You" to Mr. MacKinnon, Mrs. E. Fink and Mr. E. Chipchase for their splendid support in.tak- ing the boys to the Listowel tournaments last Saturday. With- out the help of such people, it would be difficult for our youth to take part in out-of-town ac- tivities, The support I have been given this past summer by different people with their cars has been very gratifying for without their help the bhildren 'would not have been able to go to Seaforth for swimming, or, to Exeter for the Playday.

Today its towns are "admittedly the driest" in Ontario, to quote from a recent 'London Free Press editorial. Huron has consistently voted dry when faced with a county- wide vote. In 1919 a referendum was voted on to decide whether or not to continue the Ontario Temperance Act. Huron voted dry by a majority of 12,777. In 1921 ae act forbidding the im- portation of liquor was put to the province and carried. Huron's dry maiority on that occasion was 10,795. In 1924 the OTA was again put to the Province. This time Hu- ron's dry majority was more than one-third of the total dry majority for the whole province, 11,945. Why so dry? Because in spite of its defects the CTA since 1914 has kept out the legal liquor outlets which the LCA allows. We urge amendment, not' re- peal.
