Junior Business Girls' Club On Wednesday January 31, the Junior Business Girls' held a com- hination skiing-Ula ganinz party. We met at Jran C,'i'l'fl'hrl'd'f,, house at 8.00 where we spent a while thawing out. When everyone had arrived we started down that long trail (Lawrence Avenue.) We kept wulking and the further we went the darker it got until we reached the Shur-Guin farm. Here we branched off the road and were confronted with a very low fence (it must have been higher than you thought Jean) which we struggled aver. After picking up our casual- ties we were at our destination. The mnw "w, very pour for skiing PO we did little skiing and I great non] of freezing. At 10.30 we returned tn Jean's house where her mother nwmtod us with some delicious food. (Who cares about futures after eating that lovely food.) Even though the weather could have heen better everyone had a very enjoyahle rvening. The meeting " Jan. 29 started at 7:30 with one or two members dipping in a little later. (Notably yours truly).

Bill Johnson led off for the affirmative, followed by Grace Shier, then Jim Cole, and Helen Phillips. Both "pros" agreed that the English pub system was much better than our parlour system here, and that the atmos- phere in which one drank had an effect on a person's behaviour. They stated that Canadians didn't know how to drink, that most of tnem didn't drink to enjoy it, but drank to get drunk. They thought that drinking should be opened much more than it is and not restricted as much as it is, as when a thing is not plentiful people seem to want more than if it was plenti- ful. Both agreed that Canadians should be educated how to drink and that this would probably take ouite a long time. For the "cons", Grace Shier read some statistics which stated there were approxi- mately 1500 liquor outlets in Ont- ario. and that $52,000,000. had been spent on liquor last year. Both could not see the value of more outlets but instead would like to have more recreational facilities so that young people would not go to beer parlours for their amuse- ment. -__ The second Sunday evening Open Home at the 'Y' room was in the Soren of a debate and open discus- sion on the subject of "8hould there he more beer parloura'." The program was started off with a game that nobody could complain about Is it gave everyone a chance to talk after you found the other three or four who had the same subject as you. Doug. Ward led the simr;irur of “Onward Christian Soldiers”, and then introduced Major the Rev. Currie Creelman of we Weston Presbyterian Church, who has just recently returned from overseas, and the four de- baters who were Jim Cole and Bill Johnson, both returned servicemen, on the affirmative, and Grace Shier and Helen Phillips on the negative. 0pc.
