This is issued by the De- partment of Lands and Forests to those hunters who pass a writ- ten examination on the use and safety of firearms. The total num- ber of qualified instructors in Ajax is now four. The other three are Club President D. Parlia- ment, (silver shield); vice presi- dent, E. Pomminville and Ted Winter, Hunters who do not have last year's license or potetntial hunt- ers who have not previously held a license will be required this year to take a course on instrue- tion from a qualified HSTA In- structor. This course can he cov- ered in four evenings of about one hours duration each, In my opinion jt is a highly informative course, intended to] save lives, and I would recom- mend it either for beginners or as a refresher for experienced | hunters. HAVE INQUIRY It is my hope that our Club will find the opportunity to present this course to any person wishing to qualify for a hunting license. For you hunters who plan on shooting groundhogs this spring | and summer, a "Groundhog Li-| cense" is required for each coun- ty, However, Township permis- sion is also necessary. So bear in mind that a confusing situation could arise here. You could pur- chase a groundhog license from Ladies Auxiliary to Branch 43, open the bazaar and work to be held in the Ajax Le- gion Hall, Hunt street, Saturday from 2 to 5.30 p.m. There will be aprons, fancy-work, touch and take, home baking, candy, and featuring afternoon tea with tea- cup reading. The proceeds are in aid of the building fund. The basement of the new build- ing is nearing completion. The cement floor was poured a week ago, and when finished, will pro- vide adequate space for a elu room, leaving the auditorium free for other uses. The work on the hall has been done by the Legion members. The Hospital Auxiliary will hold its regular meeting Monday, April 11, at the nurses' residence, 8 p.m. An urgent matter of busi- ness is to be discussed at this meeting. Refreshments will be served, EDITOR DIES ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Mrs. May Stanford Hunt, society editor of the Globe-Democrat for 20 years, died unexpectedly of a heart at- tack Friday.

Mr. Colucci gave members of the historical society with| whom he viewed the site, valu- able advice regarding the arrange- ments now in progress, The meeting agreed that dis- plays would depict life in Picker- ing Township and Ontario County as it was from the time of the early settlers to a fairly recent date. It was felt that there were {many Pioneer Museums, but 'that the Township Museum should |show the evolution of the history |of the area. | "We do not want to be too se- vere in our limits," said Mr. Gib- |son, "Nor do we want a number of unrelated articles." | A number of open sub eommit- tees of the Museum Committee were formed, and chairmen ap- pointed, who will request Town- ship residents, most of them ex- perts in their field, to be mem- bers. The Grounds committee, head- ed by E. C. Petitjean, and inelud.- ing William Rankin, architeet, George Ellis, nursery operator and J. F.
