" CLINTON'S LEADING STYLE SH()PPE " 11 feej THE COIVIMEateCZ,NIENT' As usual the Collegiate Commence- ment exereises this year were a de- cided success. Held in the auditorium on Thursday and Friday evenings of last week, they broug'h't out record crowds on both occasions. Itisa' lot 'of work getting up these entertainments, which are put on en. tirely by the students, and it is en- eouraging to have them so popular with the public. But the fact is that they are looked forward to each year as the 'entertainments of theseason, many going to them who never are seen at any other entertaimmnt put on by local talent. And of course, they bring in parents and friends from all the surrounding community, The program, which - was put on both evenings, consisted of choruses, exercises, a .coupie 'of short and snap py plays, fancy dances, etc,; was gone through without a hitch' and was much enjoyed. It opened with a ibugle and drum prelude. The first item was a chorus of male voices. The singers being:" First tenors, G. Hol- mes, J. McCall, R. McInnes,; 1. Per- due; emend tenors, G, .Campbell, F. Dovey, G. Levis, H. Seeley, W. West; first bass, B. Bartliff, G. Elliott, F. Heard, C. Hutch; second bass, K. Dun- gan, C. Holmes, F. Moynes,' G. Ven- eer. A- playlet entitled, "A Mad Break- fast," was presented by Kathleen Cos - ens, Ruth Andrews, Norma C'oolc, G. Campbell, G. Gingerich, G. Venner, G. Elliott Evelyn Lever; J. Cuning-. name and H. Williams. This was a sort of a mix-up, as a young boarder had brought in a man who wished to study a group of people who were not quite normal, telling him this was such a -household. The boarder `informed t h e boarding house. mistress that he was a food inspector, and each one of the boarders was given to understand he was an expert, in a different line. As a result they all acted foolishly and as a result the practical joker had te confess his\ joke and the man was glad to 'escape, `being -sure he'had -got mire n -very "'queer" household. A. dance was -given by eight young girls in •costumes of green and white and was 'finely, executed. The girls were, Agnes Agnew, Kathleen Cun- inghame, Violet Fremlin, Margaret leeard, Dorothy 'Hdli'and, Faye Lind- say, Cora Street, F. Watson. A mixed chorus composed of ;Misses C. Bransdon, L. 14fanning, M. Thoznp-. 'son, A.' Cameron, E.'Chai'lesworth and Messrs. J. McCall, It. McInnis, K. Dougan and 'C. 'Holmes -gave two fine vocal selections.

The school paper was read by Nora Fremlin, containing verses of her own composition, A gymnastic stunt. was also well executed by a number of boys and indicated splendid physi- cal training. More songs by the male chorus were enjoyed and enthus- iastically- encored. A drill, The Flamborough Sword Dance by the following girl's in sport. dress, was a pretty feature: J. ,Cameron; J. Cor- nish, V. Barris, E. Heard, R. Levis, M. Middleton, M. Mutch, H. 'Whish. The final number was a play. The caste: was made up of 3, Perdue and THE MARKETS Wheat, 90e to 92e. Oats, 36e.

But we plead innocent of any ambi- tion. to. fly so high in the realm of finance, it was purely a slip of the pen, which was overlooked in the hur- ry of getting out the issue. of this family journal in time to catch mails and mail couriers on the day of publication.

M. Mare kie, suggesting that he, at hie own expense, go out and endeavor to have industries locate in Clinton, the court - to pay him, when such an industry is established and employing seven- ty-five or more hands, the sum a $2,000 for each industry so establish: - ed. Reeve Elliott, as chairman of the special committee, moved, seconded by Councillor Livermore, that this council place itself on record as be- ing behind this proposition and com- mending the council of 1936 to back it up. Mr. Elliott said he had heard some street talk that the members of the council were trying" to 'block the establishment of new industries in Clinton, He"was behind any propos- ition to bring new industries and would back them up one hundred per- cent. The proposition made by Mr. Mackie; he said, had nothing to de with, the trial 011 wale or the chemi- cat and egg plants to be started', these were coming anyway, as far as: he understood, and he, and he tho'oglit he was speaking for all the council, would welcome the establish- ment of any industry 'which would employ men and do away with unem- ployment. Councillors Holmes and Livermore each spoke, also, and each hoped that something would come of the proposi- tion. Mr. Holmes said he had been hoping that something definite woulc/ be Placed before the council, as he had heard a great many rumors. Mr. Livermore said nobody was knocking, the miming of industries, that every- body would welcome there. The following report of the M.0.E.. was read and adopted: "Clinton, Dec. 1st, 1934.

The residents of William street wanted the snow fence replaced alongside the park. On notion of Councillors Paisley and Inkiey this was left to the street connnittee to Iook after. Tize. Women's Institute and the Hospital Board each wrote asking for a rebate of hall rent for a play put on recently by each organization. Both claimed that the proceeds were to be used for the Hospital: On mo- tion ofC C o t 'nett o 1 r t s Holmes and Ink - ley both requests were granted. A deputation was present from the Home and School Club and on in- vitation of the mayor, Mos. H. C. Lawson, president, addressed the council. Mrs. Lawson said that the Home and School Club had always had a welfare committee, whose duty it was to look after any .child who came to school with insufficient cloth- ing, etc., and that for the past couple or three years this committee had been given the responsibility of ad- ministering relief in the town. She said it was too much of a responsi- bility and that the Club had decided that this committee should nbt take it up this year, Her suggestion was that a central committee be formed, with the backing of the council, to administer relief. The Home and School Club would have a represen- tative on such a eonnnittee, she said. Two or three of the councillors asked a few questions and Mayor Trewartea assured the Club that the council ap- ter would be diseussed when new business came un and they would re• port to the Club their conclusion. He assured the Club that the town ap- preciated very highly the work done by the Club, and other organizations in town, Mr. Ian MacLeod, Agricultural Re- presentative, also on invitation of the mayor, addressed the council, He said be seldom appeared' before a town or township councilexcept when he wished to ask a favor, but said he had always had the co-operation of Mb bodies and was grateful for it. He explained that be was planning to hold a short agricultural course, mem meneing Jan, 7th and continuing until Fib. 1st, and he wished the use of the council chamber to hold a girls' class. The classes will meet :during the day. IIe said it was twelve years since such a course had been held in Canton but that fifteen such courses hadbeen held;' with an attendance of over four hundred boys and over five hundred girls, The Government made no appropriation for hall rent, the local people 'had to manage that as best they could. Reeve Elliott thought it a good thing to have this eovrse inthetown and said his idea would be to allow them to have both classes in the town hall, Councillors Walker and Cook moved that the hall and council chamber be given for CONTE BOYS1 Any boys who wish to play in the Town Hockey League this season are asked to register at Counter's bowl- ing alley not later than Saturday, Dec, 383, Teams will be drawn for neat week and it is the desire of those in charge that all boys who wish te enter may be given a place.
