"That's why", continued, "Bette Davis, who thinks likewise with me, and I were happy about the grand finale we staged for "June Bride" at Warner Bros." The scene, according to the script supplied by Montgomery, went something like thi He was about to leave Bette after several reels of on-again- off-again romantics. The jig was up, his "suitcases were packed, and he had them in his' hands. Bette's back was turned and she wasn't having any part of Mr. Montgomery. Neither was Mr. Montgomery having any part of Bette, so it appeared. Then, just as he started for the door to exit forever, Bette whis- pered his name. He paused, and then wham! Right then it's understood that they're going to wind up in each other's arms. "The reason all love stories should end with hugs and stuff", Mont- fomery reasoned, "is because all people are incurably romantic, and because they think that all romances end that way." "If you don't give 'em that kiss business at the end, they feel cheated". "And, well, I feel that way too". Guest of the Week It Mr. H. W.

TEEN TOWN By Bruce Squires As mayor of Oakville's Teen- Town, I feel it my duty to ex- plain to the people of Oakville, to Mr. Bruce Squires and to those teen-agers who have been exclu- Girl Guides By Mrs. Irven Fell The Scout hut was bulging with spooks last Friday afternoon when the Brownies had their Hal- lowe'en party. The hut was tur- ned into 'Ghost Town' and Agnes Medland, Tawny Owl of the' 2nd Brown Pack was the witch. The Brownies were all in fancy dress and each one had to make her own mask. There was certainly a wonderful assortment and they were all very good. Debby Gray- don got the first prize as hers was just a very little bit better than thé others. The judges were unable to award a second prize. The Brownies played games, sang songs and ate candy and ice cream, and had a wonderful time. The 1st Guide Company had a Hallowe'en party on Wednesday afternoon. They were all dressed up too. The prize for a funny cos- tume was won by a very fat little woman, Dorothy Dowdle. Two pirates, Betty Ann Wright and Carol Johnston, won the prize for the best costumes. The Guides played games and then had their supper. The 2nd Guide Company had a Hallowe'en party Thursday even- ing. They didn't dress up but they had a grand time ducking for apples and trying to eat buns on strings with their hands behind their backs. Everybody ought to try that some time. Other games were played and they had sand- wiches, cookies, ice cream and pop. I don't know whether the 3rd Company had a party or not, but expect they had. We take this opportunity to congratulate the Boy Scout or- ganization on their very. success- ful year and their plans for the future. There is one sure thing, if the Scout Troops keep on grow- ing, the Guides are going to be campaigning for a Guide Hut. Teen-Town Council will be final." Last year all persons were ad- mitted to Teen-Town and Teen- Town degenerated into a Friday night dance for anyone and ev- eryone. By excluding outsiders, we eliminate the worry ofhaving. drunken or obnoxious persons in our Teen-Town. Although many outsiders are a credit to our Teen-Town, if we admit them, we are obliged to admit every- ne. The citizens of Teen-Town, the Rotary Club and we, the council are going to make Teen-Town a strong, active club; maybe not as extensive in membership or as strong financially but powerful in spirit and actions. Teen-Town is goinj e a credit to Oakville, catering to its members with clubs, amusements and projects. T would like to take this oppor- tunity to thank all those Teen- Towners who assisted in the painting of the exterior of Vic- toria Hall. I would like to thank the Langmuir Paints, who very kindly donated the paint for this project and Mr. Reid and Mr. French for their great assistance in organizing the painting. Don't forget the Sadie Hawkins dance on November 12. The Mayor. ded from in Teen- Town, the reasons why ship is now given only to those teen-agers in the Oakville-Trafal- gar High School area. Quoting from Teen-Town's con- stitution, where the citizenship question is dealt with in full: "All persons from the age of 13 to 19 years inclusive, ordin- arily resident in the Town of Oakville, or attending any school situated in the Oakville- Trafalgar High School Area, shall be eligible for citizenship and in any case or dispute as to eligibility the decision of the QUALITY SHUR-GAIN FEEDS Priced to Suit Your Pocketbook Make it a point to see us on your next trip to town for the Feeds you need for maximum farm production.
