Square ;lancing
vricley „night square dancing
at the public school lies been
divided into two ,age grouPS.
The first green, to take he
floor et 7:90 p.m, range in
age from 9 to. II. The older
group 12 and over, dance from
8;30 to 9:30 p.m.
By dividing them into two
genes, it gives the older chil-
dren a chalice to learn seine of
the more advanced square
dances.
We commend Max harness
and Norm Whiting on the job
they're doing with the young-
sters, If anyone else would
like to lend a hand Friday eve-
nings, your assistance certain-
ly will be welcome, Just drop
up to the public school at 7:30
p.m.
Two sets of square dancers
entertained at the Senior Citi-
zens' Club Tuesday evening.
Max and Norm would like to
continue taking the youngsters
out to, perform for clubs
throughout the district, so if
your particular club or group
is interested, call Norm, Max
or myself. Something could
certainly be lined up.

He's coming back again.
Yes, Dick McFarlane will be
back in town to entertain the
local teen town group on De-
cember 15 at the Exeter Arena.

the more going on, the merrier
for everyone!
President Marg Howey tells
's that Mr. McFarlane will

town group. The local young-
sters have several "big" sur-
prises lined up. So, plan to at-
tend the Dick McFarlane show

The outlook for physical fit-
ness classes for both menand

gram in Exeter. Most of us
need it too!
If you are interested in tak-
ing the classes, please phone
us at. 437 or 693-M so that we
may get your name for the
records. 11 enough names come
in, the course should swing in-
to action after the new year.
What a way to start 1962!
