Boyle It's strange the notions you get when you're sick in bed. Having suc- cumbed to the attack of a flu bug, was sent to bed. This, 1 might add, came about after a long and furious argument with my wife and a weak spell which I took while putting down hay one night. The world started whirling around in gay abandonment and I suddenly realized what might have happened if 1 hail tumbled over with the lantern into the depths of the mow. 1 was determined to get tip for the New Year. 1949 wasn't going to catch me flat on my back. No sir, I was going to get up, I spent the whole clay in demanding to know what was going on at the stable. Ed. Higgins had been doing my chores for me, and when I couldn't find anything wrong with the work I had to adopt a new tactic. It wasn't fair to have Ed, working on New Year's Eve when lie should be home getting ready for the dance at the schoolhouse, My wife just smiled. at me in a tol- erant way and said, "You stay in bed where you !belong. All you're trying to do is convince yourself that you should be up. The doctor said you were'nt to get out of bed until next Wednesday and that's where you're staying." I dozed off then, When I woke up there was a maddening smell of sage and savory and stuftieg for the goose which the wife was getting ready for the next clay. I lay there as long as I could. The door would open and would cock my car trying to hear who it was. The bread:nen had come. Then T heard laughter and that was even more trying. There's nothing as bad as laughter when smet haven't heard the joke. The telephone rang. Why doesn't my wife go and answer it? That's dreadful. I start to get out of bed when I hear the kitchen door open and she comes out to speak. I wonder who it is. I listen, and she's talking about me, "Poor man, I don't think he'll be able to get up for New Years „ . , Yes, it is a bad time of the year to be slut:. . . "and so on, I've got to get up. There's Michael racing through the dining room on that new go-cart or pedal cart or whatever you call it, that he got for Christmas. I distinctly told him not . to! We've got the company for to. Morrow and the floor wilt be a mess. Why doesn't his mother stop him, TAX DAY or NIGHT Phone 63 JIM CAMERON All Passengers Insured HAMILTON OPTICAL CO. W. R. Hamilton, R. 0.

It will be no small acquisition for a town of Wing- ham's size to have artificial curling ice, Curlers from centres within a rad- ius of 30 to 4.0 miles will be visiting Wingharn to have the pleasure of a game on keen artificial ice, It will be all for the good of the town if Wing- ham becomes the curling centre for Huron, Bruce and Grey, Whatever may he happening to other Canadian winter sports curling is still a game that carries with it all the amenities of good sportsmanship. The fellowship of the game is more important than the winning of many games. The curlers are stretching their own resources to the very limit, They are encouraged by substantial ,contributions from local industries and they need the help of public spirited citizens, It is a genuine community project that they are pro- moting.
