The Junior Farmers organization report a busy schedule for June start- ing with the regular meeting and con- cluding with the visit of the Kiwanis on June 28th to Glenburn Farms ownâ€" ed by Col. F. H. Deacon. The annual Picnic held at Musselman’s Lake comes midway on the program and is planned for Friday, June 15th. A full program of sports is being arranged and a record good time is promised. “Theology and Pigs” or “Economics and Religion” was the unusual subject chosen by Rev. A. E. Owen who was the guest speaker. Mr. Major of Whitevale and introduced by W. J. Speers dealt with the Milk Producers problems at the regular meeting held last Monday evening. The popularity of the Girls Club is once again in evidence, an invitation being on hand to visit the Altona Sen- i-or Institute on June the 13th. Two demonstrations were included on the Monday evening’s program, one on towel embroidery given by Mabel Reesor and one on Bound Buttonholes and Pockets by Margaret Milroy. An article on “The Care of Clothes” was read by Mae Thurston. The session was adjourned early to give the mem- bers an opportunity to hear Mr. Owen. The usual recreational activities con- cluded the meeting. The splendid in- structive program with a record at- tendance rated the meeting the best one yet. The annual Moonlight ex- cursion is planned for July 20th. Re- serve the date and watch for par- ticulars. Shooting wolves seems to be a favorite pastime in this vicinity.\ The last event being reported as occurring on Monday afternoon last. The story goes that two small boys, Jack Har- per and Milford Stotts were playing in the creek on Mr. F. L. Stiver’s farm and saw what they thought were two dogs playing on the edge of the woods Upon investigation it proved to be a wolf and a police dog, the frightened kiddies gave the alarm, Mr. F. L. Stiver, Frank Harper and Everet Harâ€" per giving chase. Frank Harper shot twice at the wolf seriously wounding it, the body of the animal being,r found a short time after in Raymond Bril- linger’s bush. This may clear up some of the mystery of recent sheep killings and is welcome news for sheep owners. The Township‘Hall was filled to capacity on Friday evening last with interested patrons who came to enjOy the three act comedy “The Smart Shop” which was given under the auspices of the Live Wire Club of Central United Church. The story was full of thrills, giving each girl opportunity to star in her own par- ticular part. The successful advenâ€" ture of the owners of the Smart Shop in spite of difficulties with a “And they lived happy ever after” ending left no disappointments and the mem- bers of the club are to be congratu- lated on the splendid entertainment. The cast included, Mrs. Frederick Parmalee, Mae Stonehouse; Miss Deâ€" light Evans, Jean Carr; Miss Alice Repp, Marion Warne; Mrs. Ogden Banks, Gladys Dyke; Miss Mable Mor- row, Mae Thurston; Mill Ella Murphy, Dorothy Carr; Miss Muriel Bancroft, Mary Champion; Mrs. Baker, Ethel Wagg; Miss Hazel Ellis, Evelyn Hur- rell; Mrs. Howard Lawson, Dorothy Smith; Miss Jessie Ferguson, Marâ€" garet Martin; Mrs. Tim Callahan, Blanche Broad. That Unionville Bowling Green will not be closed for the season of 1934 was the decision of the annual meet- ing of shareholders and former mem- bers held at the office of Mr. G. A. M. Davi‘son on Tuesday evening last. This is indeed welcome news to all interested bowlers and it is desired that the membership be enrolledI as soon as possible. Unionville is one of the pioneer clubs of the district being organized some 35 years ago and many good games were played when the green was not as well equip- ped as at the present time, but the enthusiasm of the players was not lacking. Join the Club and lend your enthusiasm in interesting others in the game and may 1934 be a most successful season for the Unionville Bowling Club. The membership fees are indeed moderate, gentlemen $2.00, ladies $1.00. WEEKLY NEWS NOTES FROM THE UNIONVILLE DISTRICT The officers elected for 1934 in- clude, President, A.
