DR. E. A. McMASTER, Mayor. "God Save the Queen" Seaforth Stores will remain open Wednesday Afternoon, December 28th •+r . n ., . (By SHEILA McFADDEN) Last Thursday night the official celebration of the examination's end was held in the form of a skating party and record dance af- terwards at the school. Although it was actually public skating on Thursday night, the school students outnumbered other skaters by a large majority, so you could say it was the school's skating party. There was an excellent turnout at the dance, and although Miss Mac- Intyre and Miss Kelly were the official chaperones, it was noticed that they spent more time with a pen in their hand, staring at a pile of papers, than looking at a bunch of "crazy" happy students. Al- though who could enjoy that kind of entertainment with pages of "chicken scratch" calling. There were free cokes and doughnuts to those lucky individuals who were able to get downstairs before the rest of the crowd. $ $ Now that the dances are being mentioned, it is almost unneces- sary to mention that the Christ- mas dance will be next Thursday night. Dec. 22. The dance will be from 9 to 12, and Bill Stuart's orch- estra will be the music -maker. This item is for those home -cook- ing fiends. Miss Elford, strongly backed by some of her home econ- omic girls. has the pleasure and muss of baking approximately 30 dozen cookies, which will be avail - LEMON'S TAXI and PARCEL SERVICE All paeeengers insured PHONES; CECIL DAVE 676 675 'blue coal WILLIS DUNDAS • Champion Steve and Furnace On DUNDAS 4 LONEY Phone 573 or 332-R ,`gy'ml YUU Ni .'ls` FOR INDOOR AND OUTDOOR Replacement Bulbs for all types of strings. v V.

It is hard to lose you, Helen, as we have had you with us since childhood, and John, since coming to our neighborhood, you have made many friends as well. We are very glad to know you have decided to re- main in Dublin, and so we will be able to have many good times to- gether. We ask you to accept this gift as a remembrance of us.— Signed on behalf of your friends and neighbors: James Delaney and Joseph Shea.

There were 30 present and, as usual, a very pleasant evening was spent. R. E. McMillan pre- sided in the absence of the presi- dent, Mrs. W. J.

McMaster spoke a few words of appreciation to Rev. and Mrs. Campbell for their co- operation and work during the year, and Miss Davina Anderson presented them with a pretty Christmas gift, also one for Ann. Miss Janet Hogg, of McKillop, was guest speaker and her subject was centered on the name of the group, "Fireside Fellowship." Miss Hogg spoke with a purpose, and her audience listened with wrap- ped attention, as she quoted some of the great authors. She also spoke on "Braile" and showed how the reading is taught. To finalize her address, she repeated the Christmas story from St. Luke. Mrs. Campbell spoke a few words of appreciation to Miss Hogg for her splendid address, and Rev. Campbell closed that part of the meeting with prayer. Santa Claus was busy that eve- ning and didn't appear, but the gifts were distributed in a novel way by Mr. Campbell, after which a few games were indulged in. As is the custom of the group, a Christmas lunch was served and another party was concluded.
