After a. tour thy elf ett the bending and a visit with three former Lucanites, the regular meeting was held in the andl- tpriem, with the lady patients as guests. The presideot, Mrs. Sheridan Revtngton presided and sppke on the motto, "In youth we learn, in age we understand". Roll call was answered by pre- senting a gift for each patient. It was decided to make the next meeting on June 20 another. red letter day by a dinner in London and a tour of the tele- phone building. Mrs. Ira Carl- jug and Mrs. Jack Steacy were named a committee to make the necessary arrangements. The president thanked all those who helped make the Op- portunity Sale and the dessert at the Dog Show such a finan- cial success. Though the treas- urer was out of town, it is ex- pected the former netted over $70 and the latter over $35. Mrs. Alex Young, represent- ing the grandmothers, read a poem entitled "Grandmother of To-day", Mrs. Murray Hodgins took over for a singsong,• comprised mostly of well known hymns, suggested by the patients, many of whom entered heartily into the singing. Three of the pa- tients also entered into an amusing little game, on the making of soap, which every one enjoyed. After the closing of the meeting all moved into the dining room where the WI ladies provided refreshments. At least one member sat at each of the small tables, with the patients and did their best to make the afternoon a happy one, for the elderly people. At the close of the refreshments one of the patients moved a vote of thanks for their treats and happy after- noon. After registering in the guest book, WI members re- turned to Lucan, feeling they too, had had a happy afternoon. CONSTABLE IS SPEAKER The Lucan Junior Farmers held their meeting at the home of Fred Culbert, Monday May 13, with 30 members present.

Lloyd Plaine of RR 1 Den- field says wolves have been bothering cattle in his locality for some time. Accompanied by Roy Kenning and Jack Hender- son, Mr. plain came across two wolves and two dogs. They killed one wolf and wounded the other and one of the dogs. As Denfield is only a few miles south of Lucan the wol- ves are getting too close for comfort for Lucanites.

STOP APPLE MAGGOT SOCK IM.WITH IN SECTICIDE safety. Anyway,. there'll be no mere of .that cacophony of cat- calls aroupd our In an effort to save my sanity, I went trout fishing, I nearly destroyed the spattered rem,, pants of my wits in the redis- covery that speckled trout fieh- trig is the niestawkward,lecone yentent, difficult and infuriating sport in the wprld. My wife, and most women, consider trout fishing as the most ridiculous forte of recreae tion that extsts. They are right. You stagger through swamps. You slip off wet logs into ice- water. You trip over roots. You lose a hundred Wks. You battle insects, Your line is perpetually tangled around twigs, leaves, or your left ear. You puff, pers- pire, profane. You eat lunch with hands generously spread with an equal mixture of worm-guts and fish-guts. If you are tremen- dously successful, you bring home enough fish M provide a dinner for a midget with an ulcer. Why do men do it? There are several reasons. First, there are np women, children or cats on fishing streams. There are no telephones or doorbells jang- ling their nerve-rattling sum- mons. It is life stripped down to elementals. There are just you and those stupid trout. It's you or them. And nine times out of 10, it's you. Don't feel sorry for the trout.

It's bad enough most of the time, but sPritleis pitiless in her demands op us, She fills a pot with boiling adrenalin, throws in a handle' of humans, just put of the deep- freeze, adds a carrot of new hope, an opion of energy, and a garlic bud of renewed promise. She sprinkles it with a dash of color and a whiff of scent,. She tosses in a soupcon of sunshine and stirs vtgorously with a ladle of old memories until the whole thing is bubbling and gurgling. What she comes up with, for people of all ages, is a heady brew-experience, the essence of life. It came to our family in three doses this week. My son took a lesson in economics, my daughter took 'the cat to the hospital, and I took a dozen nice speckled trout. We suffered and enjoyed in about equal pro- portions. 4, 4, 4, Hugh discovered the elemen- tary thesis that dames are mur- der on the money. He took a girl to the high school prom. Tickets, corsage, and the inevi- table poet-dance snack cost him what he would spend on himself in about two months. I hoped the lesson would register, and that he'd give up women for life. But he is human, and as all such, perverse. All it did was make him want to get a high- paying job for the summer so that he could do it again, and more often. I think the dance took more out of his mother than it did out of him. At any rate, she was more tired when he left for the dance than he was when he got home. This, I understand, is par for the course. On Monday, my wife made one of those lightninaclocisions for which she is famous. After two years of coping with kittens, she snatched the phone, called the vet, plunked the cat in Kim's arms and pushed both of them out the door, When I got home, she was wearing that smug air of decision which Caesar displa- yed the day he crossed the Ru- bicon. Or was it the Delaware? And I don't blame her. We had spent a hideous weekend. Piper the cat was that way again. A huge white torn prowled and howled in the back-yard. A gigantic black tom yowled and scowled about the front door. Our dog raced from one to the other, yapping ferociously. They just sneered at him and retreated not an inch. This went on for hours. Finally, I picked up the cat and hurled her out the back door. I felt just like the Rus- sian parents in those old stories who, chased by wolves, threw their children out of the sleigh, one by one, in the hope of slowing down the pursuers so that the others could get to AGRICULTURAL CHEMICALS AVAILABLE AT CHIPMAN, GREEN CROSS AND NIAGARA BRAND DEALERS Lucan 87, 0 86, PSS 85; song with descant, grade 6, 0 87, PA 86, Lucan 85; grade 7, PA 86, Lucan 85, 0 84; three- part chorus, grade 8, PSS 87, PA 86, Lucan 85.
