Georgetown Clubhouse Opens Amid Mixed Weather And Community Activities
The Georgetown area marks the opening of a new clubhouse after mixed April weather with rain that softened grounds. W Origers, club president, officially opened the building and urged players to respect the course and maintain greens. Visitors from Gladstone, Crystal Brook and Brinkworth attended, while croquet and golf events and a croquet match with Wirrabara were noted. A large farmers meeting opposed a proposed compulsory wheat pool, and Easter tennis results at Yacka highlighted Georgetown players L Page and Edna Odgers. Mr. Mark King visited church affairs with Cloverdale Hill attendees and foreign missions reps.

Western Canada's Wheat Pool Faces Market Reality
The Wheat pool faces questions of public value and legality while contending with higher prices. Proponents claim it offers farmers a refuge from volatile markets, with support from banks and prairie governments and growing national sentiment. Opponents argue it may curb supply and demand signals, but the piece urges fair judging beyond a single year and highlights its policy reforms and regional unity.
