Two weeks ago a ball game with Milli- ken young people yielded a score of 26-5 which leaves the local group out of the house league. but they will still play for fun. On Saturday evening of last week there was a hay ride around Leitchcroft Farms, with Dave Leper bemoaning the fact that he drove the tractor, and on Mon‘ day of this week they met at the Wrights' on No. 7 highway for hamburgers and fireworks to cel- ebrate the Queen’s birthday. This week’s Saturday Evening Post carries an article entitled. “I Sailed the Eighth Sea to Eur- ope", in which the writer des- cribes the journey through the St. Lawrence Seaway. along the St. Lawrence and across the Atâ€" lantic. Now 80 per cent of the world’s merchant shipping may enter the Great Lakes. One ship- ping line, the Fjell-Oranje, has even built two special passenger- freighters. the Princess Irene and the Princess Margarit, for the run. Each will carry 110 passen- gers in elegant accommodation, matched only by the luxury lin- ers, according to the article. Now all we need is the funds!

Last week we neglected to men- tion that the profusion of roses in Browns Corners Church on Mothers Day were there by cour- tesy of Mr. Ken Bennett of Mills Greenhouses, Richmond Hill.
