Good News Youngsters attending George Bailey Public School, especially last year’s grade '7 pupils now in grade 8, have found occasion for smiles and happiness even at school! Reason for such good feeling is that their teacher, Mr. Mer- rill McPhail, is now out of hos- pital. He had been taken back to the Ross Memorial Hospital, Lindsay, from Toronto General, and is now home with his par- ents, Rev. A. G. Mchail and, Mrs McPhail, of Lindsay. His wife, Donna, is still inI Lindsay hospital but progress- ' ing favourably. The class of grade 8 tOOkl time out at school to each write a letter to Mr. McPhail, to say hello and wish him a speedy recovery and a not-too-distant- return to George Bailey.

Whole gardens and fruit trees. into which people have poured consider- able time and money have been wrecked by these unfortunate souls who do not seem to know any better. One man was growing pumpâ€" kins for church harvest festi- vals: these were smashed. Another avid horticulturalist had prize squash and other vee- etables ruined. and an apple and pear tree stripped of fruit.
