But in order that they see exactly how it should be done, pictures of the last few cadet inspections were shown Friday afternoon. Along wîth these were pictures of the Arizona Maids and the Sunday Morning Class softball teams which were taken on the school campus last summer. These filins were taken by Dr. Devitt and for these the students are very grateful. Magazine Pictures Bowmanville's formost ama- teur photographer, Hugh Mac- Donald spent the best part of Monday morning taking pictures of the school. Each class had its picture taken as well as the various societies, Mr. Ross also took ping-pong pictures of the fifth form. This is just one more step in the production of the Screech Owl magazine. First Form Program With the interruption of exams, we have almost fiorgotten the form programs. But on April 13, at 2:45 p.m. aîl outsiders are in- vited to witness first form display the abundant talent that is so deepiy hidden in the mass mob of their numbers. For several year, first formers have flot had an opportunity to show what they can do, and for this reason, they will be doing their best in order that the first formers of future years will be granted the same privilege. SENIOR BASKETBALL (Bob Gailagher) B.H.S. Seniors were the hast team to be eliminated from play- off competition but not before they put up a terrifie struggle. In the first of the two games total points B.H.S. lost to Cobourg 45-15 but came back to defeat Cobourg 43-41. The score on the round was Cobourg 86, B.H.S. 58. Both games were played at a fast pace with Cobourg showing more accuracy around the basket in the first game while B.H.S. couid only corne close. The second game was one of the best games of the season with both teams go- ing ahi out to secure a victory. At 1 the end o! the third guarter B.H.S. trailed by 19 points but came up with a dazzling finish to defeat Cobour 43-41. In the two game,5 ail B.H-.S. players piayed well with Hank Tamblyn and Bul Rundle proving to be the steadiest. Congratula- tions are in order to B.H.S. Seniors for an excellent year's record.

Scout Mothers Hear Talk About Radio The Scout Mothers' Auxîhiary met at the Lion Conimunity Centre on Mare-h 23. with Mrs. J. S. Heyland, first vice-presi- dent, in the chair. Mfter the business period Mrs. Heyland gave an informai talk on "Heard on the Radio", mentioning the welcome and publicity given scouting during Boy Scout Week. Though we may laugh at '"Soap Operas" they do fill in many loneiy hours for shut-ins. A say- ing had stayed in her mmnd- "Life is too short to be little." She had heard a choir from Rester Howe School, twenty-eight mem- bers, representing nineteen na- tionalities. One morning on the "Breakfast Club" a boy was en- couraged to sing and from there went on to what maY be fame. Mrs. Heyland spoke of the Crip- pled Chihdren's Fund, supported by Easter Seals, as it pays for camp bolidays for cripples who cannot pay. She had beard one interview about the Variety Club, which was started by ten busin- essmen who found an abandoned baby just before a meeting and decided to support the child. The new school, sponsored by the Variety Club, at Danforth and Kingston Road is designed and 'built for cripples, some to "live in". These were only a few of her, gleanings that were much enjoyed[ but we wish there had been m any more at this meeting to hear this interesting tahk.

Mrs. 0. Friend visited the pack and taught a dance to the Brownies. Fifteer minutes were spent in tests. Beverley Frank took fine girls on laying a campfire. The following girls passed tests: God Save the Kin'g-Suzanne Thompson; Set a table-Lynda Morrison, Margeurite Clarke, Ann Leddy, Joyce McLean, Patricia Cheetham. Mrs. Friend told the Brownies a true story of her experiences while on vacation dn the shores of the ibeautiful Adriatic Sea. This was while Mrs. Friend still lived in Switzerland. Mrs. Friend held the children spellbound while she told of the beautiful blue colour of the Adriatic Sea, Her story was about the children who fished with their fathers al day long, but were so poor they could flot eat the fish. They had to sell the fish for money to live. And they had to eat the cheapest of food. Mrs. Friend went on to say how her husband lost some- thing important one day in the deep grass and no matter how hard he looked it could flot be found. Finalhy Mrs. Friend went back for a last search and dis- covered a ragged littl*e boy busily searching. All of a sudden he said here it is. In answere to Mrs. Friend questions he admitted that he saw her iooking for something and that he thought if he looked in the long grass dong enough he wouhd find it. Mrs. Friend took the ittle boy back to the hotel to her husband w'ho gave the lit.tle boy several lire which amounts to $2.50 in our monev. The moral of Mrs Frends story was our own motto "Lend a Hand". The Brownies were asked to be lîke the little boy and 'Lend a Hand". There are dozens of ways to help mother and older persons. The Brownies thanked Mrs. Friend and invited her to cornie again. lst Bowmanville Girl Guides met Monday evening at the High School.

Farmers Want More Simple Tax Forms Radio Survey Shows Tbree to one, forums think farmers should file income tax neturns when income is not tax- able. Eight to one of those op- posed to this idea, feel they should keep records in any event. Roseville in Waterloo speaks for a numben wben tbey report that they are wiliing to file income tax returns whether or not income is taxable, as sooin as the propen concessions and exemptions are made for farmers, and as soion as the excess profits tax laws are re- enacted. The mnajority feel in- corne tax forms should be filed in order to have available records, to give the government a proper estimate of the agricultural in- come, to propenly record for the five-year plan, to have available information in settling estates, and also to have truc facts for everybody. The main difficulties? 'Com- plicated forms," report the larg- est number of groups. Kearns East in Temiskaming was one forum suggesting a short course in bookkeeping. Lack o! proper detailed accounts ranked next in line. This was closely folhowed by objection to the forms chang- ing eachiyear, and having to jump here and there over the sheets in fiihing thern out. Marshall Road in Haldirnand express the opinion of many when they tell us that fi- guring out depreciation is the main difficulty. "More simple tax forrns," top- ped the list of suggestions for irnproving the forms. Next was the request for incorne tax forrns for farmers only. Rural people don't hesitate to advise themselves to keep records. Only by soc doing does the farmer know bis finan- cial standing. Little Lake inI Norfolk says this would show"'that farmers aren't shirkingo theýir responsibilities. Glasgow Station in Rcnfrew says it would show the urban population that the farmer is no profiteer. Farmers do not have neceipts for many small bills and this adds to in- corne tax difficulties. The plan regarding produce tax suggested on the broadcast, was rejected five to one. However, this proved to be the most popular broadcast of the season, according to, the surnmarizing of the reports received in the office. %. I ý& . .W- StPaul's Ir.

Willow Acres Bulbs Circle the Globe The evenîng congregation at St. Paul's United Chuçb Sunday heard the Junior Cfioir of the church in a full service o! song. The many who attended will long remember this exceptionally fine service civen by the girls and boys wvho sang in voice that up- held the best traditions of St. Paul's choirs. This choir of twenty-five voices selected from the Sunday Schooi scholars, was organized a year ago and has been heard from St. Paul's choir loft on many occas- ions. Sunday night they sang the speecial numbers that had been given during the year. These were divided into four groups of three numbers each and one group of two numbers, with each group in- terspersed by suitable Scripture readings. The following were the num- bers sung-"Praise my Love the King of Heaven", with special parts taken by Ruth Rombough, Janet McGregor, Margaret Cun- ningham and Grace Abernethy; "The Danish Hymn 'o! Thanks- giving", "The Lord's Prayer" by Malotte, in which Janet Barr was soloist; "We Would be Buildingi Temples" to the tune Finlandia; "Spirit, Strengthý of all' the Weak"; "The Lord's My Shepherd" to the Brother James air, in which Janet Barr, John Stacey and Ken.. neth Bragg were the descant singers. "0O Lord Most Holy"; "Fairest Lord Jesus", solo part by James Hull; "Children of Je- rusalem"; "Eve ning Prayer" to the tune of Brahm's Lullab y, solo part by Myrna Tuerk. In the Christmas group Janet Barr and Janet McGregor sang, "Lo, How a Rose" as a duet. The other num- bers in this group were, "The Angels Hymn" --and "The First Noel" witb descant.j At the close of the service lad- ies of the church served delicious refreshments to the choir in the church hall. Marie Ferguson gra- ciously expressed the tbanks of all for the thoughtfulness and kindness of the women. Other members of the Junior Choir besides those mentioned above are Shirley Abernethy, Ma- rion Abernethy, Lorna Abernethy Joyce Purdy, Loreli Hetherington Betty Carruthers, Barbara Mur- doch, Marie Ferguson. Gladys Hodgson, James Ferguson, Don McGregor, Bobby Tuerk, Ray Corden, Bobby Carruthers, Noel Dudley. In observing the first anni- versary o! their organization the choir enjoyed an outing to Peter- boro where on the night of March 22nd, they heard Junior and~ In- termediate choirs in competition at the Musical Festival. This trip was made possible through the generosity of Miss Florence Gar- diner, Bernice and John Colville, Frank Williams and Victor Jef- fery who provided the transporta- tion. ST. PAUL'S C.G.I.T. St. Paul's C.G.I.T met in the Lecture Room on March 23. The Cail to Worship was read by Carol Tuerk, followed by scrip- ture reading by Marilyn Leask.

These shipments i have now gone forward to many! points in the United States, to Tasmania, Australia, New Zea- land and Jndia. The orders were received in recent weeks by [Fergus E. Morrili, proprietor of WilIow Acres, after his current catalogue, which was printed by The Statesman, had been mailedi round the world. Mr. Cyril Copeland, District Inspector, Plants Inspection Div- ision, Ottawa, with experienced; helpers made the inspections. Mr. ý Copeland stated that it was the first time in his experience that a shipment of this kind had been made from Canada to India. Reg- ulations caîl for strict inspection to assul<e that the bulbs are abso- lutely free from. disease. Willow Acres Nurseries werei established by Mr. Morrill on hbis stock and dairy farm forth f Bowmanville only a few years ago. The business grew so rapidly that Mr. Morrill gave up his farm- ing interests to devote aIl his time to the propagation of gladioli for domestic and export purposes. The business is now carried on by employing the land formerly known as the Scobell estate, King St. at Simpson Ave. which Mr. Morri purchased a year ago. Trinity Y.P. Hold iWorship Service The worshîp service at Trînity Y.P.U. on March 28 was led by Helen Pritchard. She was assisted by Ileen Balson who read the story from Mathew 7 contrasting the'wise man who built his bouse upon a rock to the foolish man who built his upon sand.' The theme was based on the song '"We Would Be Building." It is only by daily practice that we can hope to build a Christian democ- racy, and we must begin by build- ing goodness ini our own hearts. Af ter a short period of recrea- tion, those members who were flot practisîng the play, helped build and paint scenery. Robert Glanville Manager. LOWE fR05.
