DEBATING CLUBS FOR SOUTH-EAST GREY At the recent annual meeting: of the U.F.O., a committee was appointed to ! see if any way could be devised to I give the rural peopl a chance and an ' inducement to become more efficient I in public speaking. This committee I has dicided to offer a cup for the win- , ners of township debates. W. G. I Firth of Durham was elected Pres. | man was elected President and 'and Stewart McArthur Vice-pres., ' and T. S. Cooper of the Department i of Agriculture agreed to act as Secretary. A South-East Grey De- bating League was formed and it was decided that each rural organization, no matter whether it was a farmers' club, woman's nstitute, church organ- ization or whatever auspices the or- ganization worked under, would be i welcome to enter teams in the contest. It was thought best that each town- ship should have their own debates and the winning organization in that township select the debaters in the inter-township contests. Roles may be had from the Secretary at Mark- > dale and all entries should be in not later than Jan. 5th, 1924, if the or- ganization is to become a success i during the coming winter.
