Another shipment of goods 1from fhe Red Cross was sent hast week. Leskard oad bas been given a treatment by the snow phough. We understand, however, that if has been done at the expense of the Leskard people. Mrs. J. J. Mellor was in To- ronto. Loads of ice were being dawn the latter part of hast week. In the write-up of the Agricul- ture meeting in hast issue a par- agraph was omifted which stated that the men directors emained the same but that the names of W. W. Cornish and Ahf Ayre were added. This was not the fault of the correspondent. Mrs. A. Henry ceebrated ber birfhday Friday and recelved a large number of callers, congraf- ulatory messages, etc. The News also joins with hem friends in wishing hem many happy returns.

Bowmanvllle ORONO RED CROSS MEETING Reguhar meeting of Orono Red Cross was hehd Thursday after- noon, the new president, C. B. Tyrrell, in the chair. Headquarters requires each branch to send in 70 per cent of the money raised, and after dis- cussion it was decided to send a further contribution to Head- quarters of $235, which makes a litthe over 70 per cent that Orono bas sent altogether for 1942. The treasurem's report given by Mrs. H. Murray showed: balance of $341.25; receipts 532.25; expenses $49.77; balance $323.73: The re- ceipts included a donation of $30 -from the Orono Boy Scouts and $2.25 further receipts from the bazaar. Letters were received from: L.O.L. thanking the society for cheque for fuel; Thomas Lewis (now in Scotland), T. R. Dawes, Norman Bruton (who received his parcel Christmas eve, and who ex pected f0 see his brother Cecil shorthy), and Keifh Tennant (who described the Red Cross as a ray of sunshine), thanking the so- ciety for the parcels sent fhem; J. N. Smith for the ditty bag he received. Word was also received tiat Le Roy and Lloyd Myles and Harry Lycett had received their parcels and appreciated them very much. Reports from various convenors showed the work to be progress- ing and plans for the canvass be- ing rapidlly completed. C. B. Tyrreli and Mrs. N. F. Porter were put in charge of the five units secured by the society for use in epidemic onhy. Bills amounting to $60.63 were passed. Mrs. J. J. Mellor, Mrs. H. Murray and C. B. Tyrrell were appointed delegates f0 the Provincial council which will be hehd in Toronto in April. BONE-CRUSHERS CRUSHED Orono Bone-Crushers hockey teamn was crushed in the game on the Orono arena Tuesday, Feb. 2nd, the O.C.S. tearn, defeating fhem badly in spite of such die- hards as McCutcheon and Patter- son. The score is doubtful, as is the name of the new team. Some of the members eali themselves Bone-Crushers, and others Daisy- Pickers. Some declare the score to be 13-6, and others 12-7. How- ever, no one denies that the O.C.S. won. The game was fast and fur- ious, and cheers and boos made the raftems ring. In fact, it's a wondem the roof is stili on the rink, for the game lasfed two hours. It's funny how booing ef- feef s some people. It makes some mad. It makes some play better to try to earn cheers. If makes others merely sarcastic. The booing of one young chap re- suhted in the audience in general receiving a salute-we won't say what kind. Ail in ail it was a wild game and we hope to attend another soon. WEST FAMILY AGAIN CAPTURES CARNIVAL PRIZES The Camnival held at Orono Arena Thursday evening was a huge success, the majomity of the prizes going f0 the West family, as they did hast year. 0f the eigh- teen prizes given by Manager W. J. Watson, six went fo the West famîly, fhree each f0 Eunice Mid- dleton and Dick Morton, and the remaining six f0, six others. The forepamt of this eagerhy awaited event consisfed of races, the first two providing most of the fun as the kiddies fook three steps and fben s at d o wn, scrambled up and repeafed these three motions until fhey bad gone around the rink twice. The open race povided the mosf fhrill. This was won by Gordon Watson, who fhough put a lot further back than the others, won easily. The next events were fancy skating and for the oldesf gentle- man and lady on skates. As usual, Mrs. West secured the prize for the latter, for no lady over 35 had nerve enough f0 fell hem age. Cal Myles won the prize for the oldest gentleman on skates, also consid- eably younger than one should be f0 quahify as "old". Mm. Watson and son, Gordon, starfed the races, and Mrs. Wm. Armstrong, Miss M. McDowell and J. J. Cornish judged the fancy skating. Winners in the events are as follows: Boys six and under, Pet- er Dawes, Jimmy Shaw; girls un- demrf en, Shirley Flinfoff; boys un- dem eighf, Keith West; boys under twelve, Dean West; girls under fwelve, Helen Lewis; boys under fifteen, Junior West; girls under fiffeen, Donna West; men's race, Gardon Watson; ladies' race, Donna Wesf; gentleman and lady's race, Eunîce Middleton, Dick Morton; best lady skater, Eunice Middleton; besf gentleman skafer, Dick Morton; best lady and gentleman skating couple, Eunice Middleton, Dick Morton; oldest lady on skates, Mrs. A.

The lefe Mms. Gilroy was the former Mable Cowan, daugbter of John Henry and Isabelle Cowan, and wes born on the famm now owned by Norman Andrus. Fol- lowing ber memiage f0 Anson Gilroy, sbe and ber husband lived in Kendal unfil recenfly when fbey moved to Orono. *Wbile in Kendal sbe fook a very active part in the work of the! Women's Institute, Woman's As- sociation, and helped in the war work which the Kendal ladies are doing. Hem moving to Orono was a blow to the Kendal citizens for fhey lost one of their best workers and hem death is most keenhy re- gretted. Orono friends, too, regret hem passing at an early age of 61, for many knew hem before and she won many new friends when she moved here. The large number of friends and floral tributes at the funeral showed the great esteem in which deceased was field. The service was held at the United Church, Jan. 30, with Rev. McLachlan of- ficiating, assisted by Rev. S. Littlewood, pastor. Bearers were: Austin Turner, Brooks Cowan and Harry Cowan of Orono; Charlie Cowan and John Cowan of Newcastle; Mani- son Comstock of Bowmanville. Friends were present from To- r o n t o, Oshawa, Bowmanville, Newcastle, Newtonville, Kendal and Orono. Sumviving are the sorrowing husband, one daughtem, 'E dna (Mrs. Hoy) one sister, Mrs. Effe Cowan, and one brother, Mr. Os Cowan.

The latter fhmee prizes were won by the same sample of butter as exbibifed at the Royal Winter Faim, Toronto, af which fime if lacked one fenth of one per cent of taking the Canadian Sweepstakes. The prize butter on thaf occasion was also again ex- hibifed at London but fehI three Points below the Omono Creamery pmoducf which was due f0 defer- ioration in storage. Congratula- tions. Mr. W. J. Watson succeeds Nor- man Hog as manager of the Ag- rîculturalg park rink. Orono Hockey feam visifed Milhbrook and had an enjoyable evening excepf thaf fhey emerged with the short end of the score, 7-1. On account of beîng unable f0 secure the semvices of Penfound, Gemsby and McNeih, Newcastle came fa the rescue wifh George Walfon, C. Brown and the old reliable "Shin" Moise and they rendemed good service. Our boys played a good brand of hockey and were enterfained by the man- agement of the Millbrook team affer the game. A splendid one week's course on F'arm Mechanics closed on Fmi- day, Feb. 3md,sat Orono, baving had 65 studens enrolled with an average of 50 each morning and affemnoon during the five days of the coumse.

Author Erie Knight le KiIIod On Plane Crash When writers of the calibre of Eric Knight are kihled zts a direcf resuit of the war, nearly evemy one is cOnscious of a sense of personal loss and we realize as we did in the lasf wam that the best men are the ones most apf f0 be kilhed. Erie Knight will be. sincemely mourned by fhousands all over the English-speaking world, and the death of the ofhers in the crash, many of themo actually of equal or greater importance f0 the country, wilh be overhooked. If is probable thaf years affer William Hodson, Welfare Com- missioner who was to take charge of relief work in North Africa- a greaf man-is forgoffen, people wihl stili be reading with.- af fec- tion and amusement the tales of "The Flying Yorkshireman." Few, also, can read Knight's novel, "This Above A1l,"1 without beýng profoundly moved. The fragedy of this story is s0 pro- found and so, in some curiaus way, infinifehy personal that if touches us all today. Tomorrow, f00, if may still possess thet power of good wrifing f0 move us. )Eric Knight wes a parficular fmîend of Canadiens. In the lest war he served wifh the Princess Pets, and bis boadcast fromn CBC last spring wes one of the mot impressive ever heard in this country. He did a lot f0 wake us up-and we needed if. Much of bis work is accomn- plished; but he was only forfy- five and thef is the age wben a man may be expecfed ta be but enfering upon the period of bis greefesf work.

Then again perhaps some one says that they don't charge for examination and you go to get your eyes tested knowing that you are getting the best examination in the country all for nothing. Now don't be put out or irritated if the examiner has to leave you for a few minutes to pay the scrub woman for cleaing the of- fice. Hem profession must be con- sidered and he could not lower lier dignity by permitting her tu wait. He must pay hem even though he does work for nothing Iiimself. Please consider the a b o v e and ask yourself these questions in the interest of optometry, sight saving and eyesight conservation: Can we do the best for others when the best is advertised free? Is the best expected for nothing? After ail, the examination is the foundation for the correction and is what earns us our meputation, what brings others t0 us. Every profession, of course, has ifs rene- qades, but they do not generally establish themselves in the hearts of any community. They only soar so high and no highem. (To be continued). ed paid: J.

J, J, MASON &'SON INSURANCE AGENTS WHY NEW RATION BOOKS ARE ISSUED "Why are we getting new ration books when we stili have four unused pages of coupons? Is some printer getting a nice contract out of it and will we be asked f0 buy bonds to pay for the new ones?' These questions were put f0 the Wartime Prices and Trade Board today. Here are the answers given by board officiais: 0 While the present book has four unused sheets of coupons lef t, these are not enough to ration tea, coffee, sugar and butter for the next six months period. When the present Ration Book No. h was printed only sugar was rationed. On the possibility that other commodities might have to bc rationed, the book cnntained spare coupons. It was then found necessary f0, ration tea and coffee and later butter had to bc ra- tioned. Two of the sets of spare coupons had f0 be brought into use. Obviously, if those who de- signed the ration book had not looked ahead, the rationing of tea, coffee, and butter would have been extremely difficult. The new Ration Book No. 2 will contain sets of spaire coupons, simply because it is impossible to foresce now what commodities may have f0 be rationed in the future. Furthermore, Ration Book No. 1 is not being scrapped with the issuance of Ration Book No. 2. Its tea, coffee and sugar coupons remain good and the hast butter coupon does not expire un- fil March 14, although the new books will be issued between Feb. 19 and March 1 and become valid March 6. MEMMO TO BOOK DONORS Most of Canada's fighting men are young. They range from ex- truck drivers to, ex-lawyers. Some have three college degrees while others neyer finished the public school. But most of them like f0, read in their leisure hours and their present reading preferences are just what they were ili civihian if e. Special Services officers of the Army and Navy say that, on the whole, their men are avid for "best sellers," fiction or non-fic- tion. Others find distraction in westerns, detective yarns and ad- venture tales. Many, anxious toi learn new crafts while in the war, want recently published technical books on chemistry, mathemnaties, mechanical drawing, photography, shop mechanics and kindred sub- jects. (None want Victorian nov- els or cookbooks of 1895-vintage). Books in the preferred listings, without dog-ears, that readers do- nate from their shelves will be treasumed when they appear in camp libraries.
