Take Your Choice Two buck privates returning to camp from a night in town paused by the roadside to look at a dead imimal. "It has two stripes, so what is it?" said one.

TEEN-TOWN TOPICS By BARRY MURKAR JOTTINGSâ€" We note with in- terest that teeners of all ages have been competing at the recent Ki- wanis Music Festival in Toronto, and that Peter Kaiser of our town was among the baritone con- testants. This is a great op- portunity for the young peo- ple who are blessed with golden pipes . , . We read where Sir Ernest Mc- Millan of Toronto has never heard of the Groaner, Bing Crosby, or heard biin sing â€" well what do you kids say to that? Yeah, I know: who ever heard of Sir Ernest, tut, tut ... It you want a real laugh, listen to Spike Jones, Fridays at 10:30 p.m. Doodles Weaver will no doubt cause you to blow a gas- ket. Anyway, it's lots of fun . . . Last week, we went down to see Mickey Rooncy in "Killer McCoy", expecting to sec a tough young gunman swinging his gats (44'rs to you) from the hip. What a sur- prise! This guy Rooney turns out to be a prize-figlner. Just like my Uncle Oscar always say.-;, "you can't tell a book by the printin' on the cover" . . . The other day we heard a recording we liked very much, a vocal group, with swell harmony and snappy, groovy music between choruses. When tlie piece was finished the aimouncer inform- ed us that the number, "Because", had just been played by the Band of the Year, namely Eddie Howard and company. If you would like to give a listen to this outfit, you can catch them on Sunday after- noons at 3 p.m.. on the NBC net- work. Faitli and be-jabbers and be- gorra, next Sunday marks the an- nual weariii' o' the green. This corny dialect is to announce St. Patrick's Daj' as ijext Sunday which will no doubt be a fine day o' celebratin' in many homes . . .

Now I ask you in all fairness brothers, what will a lad like me, with big ears, look like wearing a skimmer with a two-inch eave? Will This Help You? Vour group, whether it be Trail Rangers, Girl Guides or what have you, probably could use some mon- ey. A group of energetic scouts we know are planning semi-monthly paper drives in their town to raise funds to buy equipment. This bene- fits in two ways : It helps the house- wife get rid of all those old news- papers and puts a little of the coin in t'.ie local treasury. We pass this along for what it m^y be worth to you. Can You Help Us? Many of you Junior Tarm guys and gals will be getting ready to put in hot-beds. We understand that even city people can do this. We would like to know how to make a good hot-bed. Would some- one pass along this information to us? We thank you in advance for any advice received. Please, Give 'Em A Chance Maylie it's our nosy newspaper sense, but we have a habit of keep- ing in touch with the young people we know, and in knowing what they are doing and what they think the future holds for tliem in what they- 're doing. One pal of ours is study- ing to be an engineer. He tells me tliat the olders invariably tell him there is no chance in his field. .\nother young friend is complet- ing an art course and will soon be starting out to try to nuike a name for liiniself, to say nothing of a few bucks. He meets with the same encouraging comment. .Now folks (and .w.e. mean everything up to Granpaw) take it easy! Vou may be right, but that isn't the point. Give the teeners a pat on the back, not a hit on tlie head. How do you know what their future is? They may some day be in the posi- tion to loan you a million dollars. A True Story Coming Up The other day, we heard the story of a young fellow that made us feel as if we could never beef again. In fact we felt ashamed. We can call him Smiling Joe or some- thing. He lives a long way away and will never read the story â€" wouldn't recognize it if he did. We want to tell his story because" we feel it will give all young people inspiration and faith. It's a true story and we know you'll like it. Watch for it in a week or so. In the meantime, don't catch spring-fever. It's only a week away. CHRONICLES OF GINGER FARMS By Gwendoline P Clarke Well now, it's glad I am to be able to get behind tlie wheel once more, go to town and do my own shopping. The boys have good in- tentions but I find they are poor shopper --and splendid forgettersi Getting meat home from the lock- er h.Ts been my biggest worry. One day last week there wasn't enough meat in the house to feed a cat so I asked Bob to bring me some stewing beef from the locker. What he brought nie was a big parcel of bones for making stock! Yesterday we were at a low ebb again. Bob, I knew, would be in town before finishing liis trucking for the day â€" so I said to him â€" "Will you please bring me some hamburg from the locker â€" and don't forget otlierwisc there will be no meat for dinner tomorrow." It was nearly si.x before he got home and of course my first ques- tion was â€" "Where is the meat?" He pushed his cap to one side and scratched his headâ€" "Darn it ... I forgot â€" and I thouglit there was something I had to get too." he confessed. So there we were again â€"no meat for dinner, and half a beef in the locker, « * 4t Of course with non-edible shop- ping it is always the little things that arc forgotten . . . toothpaste, shoe polish and stamps. Today shoe laces were in demand, "You haven't got a shoe lace around here, have you. Mom? Honest- to-Pete I've been tying knots in the laces of these old shoes ever since I left the Army." But Mom didn't "happen" to have a lace around the house. Mom thinks it a good idea to let the young folk do their own worrying, resulting from their sins of omission, just as they do their own forgetting. Of course I don't mean to sug- gest that I am infallible ... as a matter of fact I can forget better than any of them â€" but tlien I fig- ure that is my special privilege, partly on account of ray ripe old age and partly because of the num- ber of things I have on my mind â€" including tliree men. * » « However, as I inferred before, now that the snow has gone and the weather is not so cold, I can do my own driving, my own shop- ping â€" and my own forgetting. Somehow or other when one is housecleaning there is always something one has to have before a job can be finished. Yesterday it was gimp tacks for the chairs Partner and I were upholstering. Just a five-cent box of tacksâ€" and [ ha<l to sliop all over town to get them. Those chairs were quite a job. i thought replacing the old upholstery with new woukl be easy. But getting the old stuflt off was a big job in itself. Then Part- ner thought we had better tighten up the springs. There was also a little repair job ne-.ded on the back of one chair . . . and you know antique chairs have to be treated with respect. In all it took the two of us a day and a half to do one chair. Since then Whiskey has decided it is the one place in the house where she prefers to bleep, so now I suppose I must put a cover on the cover to keep the seat clean. » » « Oh-oh â€" 1 always speak too soon! As I live, it is snowing again â€" a wet, clinging snow. Tip- P}' was just out for about ten minutes and came in looking not so much like a dog as a sheep be- fore shearing time. Am I glad I went to town today. Now at least we have enough meat in the house to last for a few days. Looks like a good time to stay home and work on more chairs. Ah, yes â€" we can work on the chairs but as our fingers engage in this compara- tively trivial task our minds are are occupied with thoughts of the trouble in Prague â€" and we don't like whar we hear one bit. But to dwell on it too much and allow ourselves to become depressed wouldn't help anyone, $0 I guess we'll just carry on with our chairs and our shopping; our chores and our plans for spring seeding, just as if Communism was something that didn't even exist. too fflU biJw Startiu it The St. Begis Hotel rUBONTO Ktcd Buuiu Witli Tub Oatk, Shown and Teleobont C dliiclv, U.SU and apâ€" Uonble.
