Meeting It is good to see these new Can- adians blend so nicely into the general scene and absorb the lan- guage and customs of this, their adopted country.

Farm Forum Owing to the fact that Edgeley forum is made up of members from rather a scattered area, they had a little difficulty in coming to a conclusion on the subject. How- ever, there is a community hall at Edgeley, where meetings, suppers, dances, etc., can be and are held. There is a swimming pool within five miles and an artificial ice rink four miles from here. So taking everything into consideration it is doubtful if an attempt to expand the facilities would be practicable at the present time. On the evening of December 8, Mr .and Mrs. Percy Puterbaugh held the Farm Forum meeting at their home. “How important is a good community centre in provid- ing a satisfactory rural life" was the theme of the discussion. lighting service were Larry Burns, Willa Hawkesworth.
