There is no cause for alarm. DO NOT call the police or fire department. If you see such a man, ten chances to one, it will be my friend--Percival .Thistle- wort. This story goes back quite a few years and as of recent years my friend Percival had indul- ged in such searches with de- creasing regularity, I had thought that Percival had got the matter out of his system. But apparently not, It comes about that two or three weeks back, my friend Percival happened to stumble and was helped to his feet by a visitor, who, in cpnversation, mentioned that he was from Ireland." Now, as Percival re- lates, this visitor didn't have to explain that he was from Ireland--he had a brogue that could be cut with a knife and was from the very depths of the more remote parts of the Green Isle. In conversation, my friend Percival happened to mention that the 17th of March was coming up and at this mention, Percival's new found Irish friend 'explained how regretful he was that he could not be at 'home -for- this period, so that 'he could renew his acquaintance with the local Leprechauns or 'Wee Folk', who, apparently, are more in evidence at this 'time, than at any other time of the year. Percival used to be quite an authority and believer in the 'Wee Folk' but as the years passed, Percival could find few people who would discuss the matter with-him, so his interest waned, so Percival's excitement at meeting this Irish gentleman can be well appreciated. It would appear that dis. vi- sitor was relating to Percival 'an incident that happened a few years back. At the time, a big English construction firm, using all Irish local labour, was constructing a runway on Shan- non airport. The landing strip proceeded normally, until the construction crew reached a point approximately half way across the airport. Then the work stopped and nothing, but nothing would persuade the Irish workers to proceed fur- ther. It would seem that one of the big bulldozers had unearthed a fairy fort, the home of the "Wee Folk' and as it isn't pos: sible to put a loop in a run- way, the work stopped and ac- cording to Percival's friend, to this day, there is a runway at Shannon that stops dead in the middle of the airport. Perci- val's friend says that he owns several dogs, who, at this time of the year, will not go out- side the house at night for love Percival's friend says that he has seen and talked to the Wee Folk, who are the most kindly little people, un- less aroused. Percival's renewal of interest is now at a high peak, so, as T mentioned before, if you see someone doing some intensive peering, it will be Percival looking for the Wee Folk, If you should see any of the Wee Folk, smile at them -and say "Hello" and send quickly for Percival, He really is most in: verested, Ash ciety Rally held in the Cam- "bridge St. United Church in "wonderful "church service and . The Anglican, -- TATRA on Thursday - morning last, Manchester Public School pupils Grades 8, 4 and 5, demonstrated as planned by the Department of Education in conjuction with C.B.C. radio. Members of the Department together with In- spector Miss Lotta McNeill and members of the Reach School Area Board were in attendance to watch the children partici- pate. The pupils went through the : patterns with great concentra- tion and paid attention to the voice o fthe radio instructress. Each child was stationed in a circle chalked on the school- room floor. Desks had been pushed back to the walls and as the programme commenced, each boy and girl followed the radio commentator as she told them to toss the hall, bounce,| their skills in physical education Public School Children Take Part InP.

Miss Margaret Johns, teacher of the Manchester School was complimented by Mr. McNaught Supervisor of Physical Educa- tion and Miss McNeill also spoke to the boys and girls on their progress. Miss MacFarlane, also of the Audio-Visual Aids for the De- partment of Education asked the pupils questions as to their enjoyment of the programme and the musical background ac- companiment., The Department officials were pleased with the skill and imagination of the pupils and Mr. McNaught and Miss MacFarlane were of the opinion that the radio broad-. casts served as useful aids for the physical development of the students and ought to be con- tinged, Local Branch The Port Perry branch of the Bible Society was well repre- sented at the Annual Bible So- Lindsay on the evening of Mar. 8th, Mr. and Mrs. Geo, Mec- Phaden, Miss M. Williams, Mr. and Mrs. Robert Pickard, and Mrs. L. Martyn enjoyed the the exhibits of Missionary work on display in the Church Hall. Presbyterian, Baptist Churches of Lindsay, as well as.the Salvation Army, the Churches of Lindsay, had most interesting booths displaying their particular work in the Missionary field, The Rev. Stuart Johnson of Bible Society, and other United | Montreal was the guest speaker of Bible Sociely Well Represented At Annual Rally at the inspiring church service, and members of all the various churches, as well as the Salva- tion Army formed the choir which sang two anthems. Our District Secretary of the Bible Society, Rev. Colin Rudd of Peterborough, also assisted in the service. It was a united effort in every way, and proves. 'that the various denominations can and do cooperate to further the work 'of Christianity. Perhaps this Rally will be an inspiration to local churches to instigate a service of this kind to aid in premoting the wonder- ful work: of the Bible. Society.. 'Without it, all the Missionary work of all churches would be impossible, because the founda- tion of our faith, the Holy 5% Scripture would not be avail- able.
