Brownie Corner By Dawn Wraith - The Wingham Brownie pack meets on Tuesdays at the Ang- lican Church after school. At Brownies we have six groups: Kelpies, Fairies, Elves, Leprechauns, Sprites and Gnomes. The first thing we do is play a few games, then we go into our sixes and count the money. Next we sing our Brownie song and the Tweenies sing their song, We then say our promise, law and motto, and the sixers (leaders) give their money to Brown Owl. We then talk about how we can do our best and learn how to make words with our hands. After we say the Lord's Prayer and taps, it is time to say good- ' bye. Unfortunately, the senior tem fell short of the success of their counterparts. Although the tear ,suffered a 71=52 defeat, Bre Wilbee and Rene Caskanette provided 9 points each. Hope, fully, the next senior game will prove more successful for the team and the midget and junior Mustangs will maintain their pace. -Cecil DeBoer Students 2, teachers 2 otI The student -teacher broomball game was played Wednesday of Carnival Week at the Wingham arena.

We ' toyed with the idea and decided that a school paper of our own was worth all the combined efforts of the club members. • It took a lot of organization and work but finally our four page. "Madill Mirror" was published. It was a `small' success, as everyone knows how small suc- cesses are: However, the stu- dents didn't • realize that this paper could have . become the focal point of communication in our school.
