Grade IX put on a pro- gram in assemble on Wednesday that had everyone 'a wishen they oda coma' from the land of Kil- larney. Patrick and his boys put on a good show up in the old €quare box, and those who feel the Irish are getting scarce, well you couldn't prove it from all those who claim to be blue-eyed tenors. If McNamara could have had an earful of his band when it started 'to play with a Seaforth' High swing, he would wonder where Hennessey had been spending his time. This Week AT THE Community. Centre FRIDAY, MARCH 19 8:30 p.m. "Holiday on Ice" SATURDAY, MARCH 13 1:80 - 3:30 p.m. — Skating 8-10 p.m. — Skating Might just as well get the pain- ful over with now. On Tuesday, Upper School start their set of Eas- ter exams. Middle and Lower School start sweating it out on Wednesday. The hour of freedom doesn't come until a week from next Tuesday. This means the old home town is going to be dead for the .next few weekends. Just wait until the night of freedom! The toils of bondage will be cast aside in favor of some democratic feel- ings. • Following the exams there is go- ing to be a rush and a half, in pre- paring for the Variety Night atthe end of April. In the Drama Club there has been steady practicing for the past few months. Passion- ate scenes contained in the lines of the script have been receiving some extra steady action. A num- ber of the inquisitives are wonder= Ing if it isn't just a little too re- alistic. Also on the ileogram in- dividual musical talent is expected to turn up with top performances. Four gentlemen have been whoop- ing it up behind closed doors for the past few weeks. All within ear- shot are wondering what is going to result from all those weird sounds. Question of the week: What young scholar was informed this week that he can expect a lawyer's summons anytime? Fire accounts for 7 per cent of the annual forest consumption. SPRING.

Junior 'B' playoff competition, there has beep. a good deal of unoliciat reports on who Seaforth will play next. It will not be Port Dover, whiah has been so freely advocat- ed. Farmer McFadden was in- formed on Thursday that the next team on the Seafprth list will be the winner of the Waterloo vs. Woodstock series. At present these two clubs have played to a 2-2 deadlock in their best -of -seven series. The w ay Woodstock has shown power in the last few games indicates it could be the team that Seaforth will meet. In Mariposa last Tuesday night the locals played before one of the smallest ..crowds of the season, which neighbored around the 50 or 60 mark. This was one of the rea- sons that Terrier officials thought it would be useless to continue the onesided series, only to go into further debt. Looking back on Baldwin history this season, it, shows they have lost only two games in 34 starts. Their last defeat was in December, when they lost to the Wingham Town Hailers 11-8 in Wingham. Since then the boys from Seaforth have set a 24 -game winning streak. There aren't too many teams in the O.H.A. today that can 'boast Of such a record.

JAMES BOWMAN BRUSSELS.—The death of Mrs. James Bowman occurred in Alex- andra Marine and General Hospi- tal, Goderich, on Sunday, in her 91st year. Next week she would have celebrated her 92nd birthday. A resident of Brussels• and dis- trict all her life, she was spending the winter in Goderich with her daughter, Mrs. J. R. Wheeler. Last Wednesday she fell, breaking her hip and the resulting shock proved fatal, She was formerly Sarah Work, the daughter of Robert and Betsy Costie Work, whose home was in Grey Township. Following her marriage to James Bowman, they farmed for many years on the third concession of Morris Town- ship. Mr. Bowman was Conserva- tive representative for North Hur- on in the Dominion Parliament for some time. His death occurred some time ago, One son, Robert J., Brussels, and three daughters, Mrs. J. H. (Ida) Galbraith. Brussels; Mrs. J. R. (Elizabeth) Wheeler, Goderich, and Mrs. (Dr.) (Vina) Scott, Lindsay, survive, also two sisters, Mrs. Mar garet McLean, and Mrs. Elizabeth Discusses Industrial (+Continued from Page 1) the labor that could°be anticipated to be available. His fifth point had to do with a survey as to the service which4te dustry could expect. By that he explained he had reference to the types of industry which were avail- able to supply the community prob- ably within a distance of 25 miles. And finally, Mr. Potts said, there must be a complete analysis as to transportation facilities, both with respect to rail and highway, or any other means. Commends Huron Setup Discussing the recent formation of a Huron County industrial Board, Mr. Potts felt that the or- ganization would serve a helpful purpose. When American industry thinks of locating in Canada, it looks at communities in the same fashion that it would regard com- munities at home, and this means generally a community with a popu- lation of from 25 to 35,000. For this reason then, it happens some- times, he said, that smaller towns desirous of developing their indus- trial content are regarded by the American industrialists as being too small. But with , the Hutton County Board, it would be possible then to talk in terms of a com- munity with 30 to 40,000 people, and from this point, if from no ther, ,he told his audience, there would be a definite benefit insofar as the procurement of industry to the district was concerned. Male Members Take Over As Home & School Meets While It is true the Home and School Association includes as members both fathers and mothers, as a rule it is the mothers who are in 'the majority. But the March meeting on Thes- ciax evening was Father's night, and the men took over. Arrangements were completed by a committee headed by Ast, and Mr. Ast was chairman. Dr, J. C. MacLennan was secretary. Following the business meeting, entertainment included a piano selection by Mr. Hoffman and a panel of six for the game of Twen- ty Questions. On the panel were Mrs. J. A. MacDonald, Mrs. J. C. Crich. Mrs. D. Stewart, Gordon Fer- ris. Dr. James McCabe and Tom '' %rilbee. A penny sale was held, which proved popular.

Mrs. Morley Cooper read a thank -you letter in the absence of Mrs. J. W. McLean, associate members' secretary, from Air. and Mrs., A. Anderson. He cautioned his audience not to anticipate that from the forma- tion of the county committee would flow new industry to a particular comutunity. The county organ.iz• tion, he said, can do nothing but encourage industry to come to the other, he told his audience, there locate one it has decided on this general area depends on the indi- vidual municipalities. It will be up to these municipalities, up to the towns and villages, to sell industry on the merits of their particular locations. In conclusion. Mr. Potts assured his audience that the Department was prepared to assist in every way possible in furthering the as- piration ob the municipalities in Huron for more industry.
