The canvassers have been arou' ,d and report they had no trouble at al' in securing members for the season. Of course there are many missed in this way, but don't let that stop you from bowling. We have been asked to put a note in this column inviting any person in Seaforth, or surround- ing'district, to try their hand at the _game. There are quite a few new members, but there is always room for more. • Every soldier, sailors or airman will automatically become a member of the Bowling Club on returning home. If you know of any who have etirrn- ed and have not received a• member- ship ticket, get in touch with Presi- dent W. J. Duncan, Secretary R. J. Sproat, or Treasurer C. M. Smith, and they will attend to it immediately. Some time soon the men'will enter- tain the ladies. This usually takes the form of an afternoon tournament, followed by supper. No date has been set, but it usually comes early in June. If you want to be where'the crowd is this summer . . ;kiln the bowlers. • VARNA Severalfrom this district attended the agricultural show held in Clinton on Tuesday. Cpl.

Pupils enrolled' in schools or grades which are not closed and who -dur- ing the summer holidays Were em- ployed' in essential 'work connected with the food supply, and whose ser- vices are required further, are, asked to remain at their work during -Sep- tember.
