Jiession and netted two in the first five minutes of play and one more before the-, period was half over, two tninr.tms later, the fourth was scored to bring the score to 4. The green and white sweatered Hensall-Exeter players were all out in, this period to win, and although th&s Mitchell players eased up and Allowed a, couple of easy counters the rest of them were earned. The visitors have - a strong combining team, and produced no outstanding star,, while for Hensail Gascho was the most effective player.

The Mitchell-Monkton sextet were in excellent form and found their op ponents net for 22 goals*the visit- shape and their first exhibition of team play took place before a fair sized crowd. It w^s a good game, with the sides evenly matched. The first and only counter came about the middle of the second period when Miss Amelia Acheson for the town team managed to work in close and locate the net; ‘For the town team with Kathleen Godbolt in goal and Irene Stewart and .Betty Grant on defense, they made a combination hard to get by. When danger was in sight Kathleen took to her knees with stick across the goal while Irene and Betty each hugged a goal post. The forward line were a bunch of windsplitters but they .were held in cheek by the fast back-checking of the school forwards. Once the sides of the rink nearly gave in when Miss McKenzie in a lightning rush was unable to stop and after bumping in to Mfiss Acheson landed against the sides with a terrible thud. For this, Miss' Acheson was allowed to decor ate the penalty box, she being the only one to have that honor all even ing. For the school girls Margaret Ellerington showed up well. When she got the puck she just walked away from the rest but unfortunate ly she was unable to land any coun ters. So exciting was the last period that the time-keepers forgot to call time and the period went 15 minutes overtime. The subs just' couldn’t stay on the side and they piled into the game too. The game ended in one grand and glorious climax. With the school team crowding "the town team net the goalie lay down on the puck and like a flash . both teams went down in a heap with nothing but heels to be seen in the air.” Just to avoid any casualties the referee called the game. The line up: Town—Goal, Kathleen Godbolt; defense, Irene Stewart and Betty Grant; forwards, R. Creech, A. Ache-' son and A. Willard; sub. Edith Wal ter.

TRAIL RANGERS AND THEIR DADS STAGE BROOM-BALL GAME AT DOME BINKa The Trail Rangers, of Exeter, un der the leadership of Miss McKenzie pitted their skill against their dads in .a game of broom-ball at the Dome Rink on Monday evening. The Trail Rangers were divided into two groups and two games were played. The first group played for fifteen minutes and then gave way for the second group. Each group played two 'peroids. Fpr the first group the dads were the winers, score 3 goals to 2. For the second group the boys were the winners, scpre 2 goals to 1. The game is played the same as hockey only with old brooms and a foot-ball and without skates. Where a fathei’ was unable to present, a substitute was chosen, was real interesting to see the timers limber up on the ice and to show the youngsters that “dad1 still had the pep to put across a real contest. The sensation of the even ing was M. R. Complin who scored a goal from the drop at centre. Mon te displayed a wonderful stroke and is now thinking of taking up golf. Some of the fellows found themsel ves a little short of wind but manag ed to hold out to the last. In the second group of players Thos. Din- ney scored the only goal ror their side. Torn worked hard and finish ed with a wet shirt. The boys were quicker on their feet but they lack ed the punch to put the ball across. Following the game hot coffee and sandwiches were served. be It old try \9f Atkinson, of Granton. Mr. G. Stanley acted as chairman. STORY-TELLING CONTEST OF WOMEN’S INSTITUTE The regular monthly meeting the Women’s Institute was held Senior’s Hall on Tuesday evening, with a fair attendance. The story telling bontest was the main feature and was one of the best held for some time, and the judges had quite a task deciding who were the win ners. There were fourteen contes tants. ’ Those winning prizes were: Miss Creech’s pupils, room No. 1, 1st, Leonard Harvey, 2nd Richard Stanb'ury; Room No. 2, Miss Medd’s pupils, 1st, Grant Tayjor, 2nd, Don ald Graham; Room No. 3, Miss Rowe teacher, 1st, Eileen Andrew?, 2nd, Leonard Jones; Room No. 4, Mrs. Goodspeed teacher, 1st, Doris Har vey, 2nd Ola Reid; violin solo by Marion Powell and two quartettes by four girls were also well rendered. Short talks were also given by four of our townsmen,—Rev. Mr. Jones, Messrs, M. L. Beavers, T. Dinney and B. W. F. Beave^ after which a short business meeting was held, when it was decided to have another meeting this' week to give the public a chance to hear some of the« older orators from our high school. Fuller par- ticulare elsewhere in the “Times-Ad vocate at which we hope our citizens will come out in' large numbers and encourage our young people of which we are proud and in years to come will - be folding some of the highest positions of the country. Mrs. Beavers presided at the meeting which closed by singing "God Save the King.” PRINTERS WIN FROM BANKERS .If the bank staffs of town ar&’nbt up to their usual mark these days it is because the printers . of town forced them to exert the last ounce of their strength in a game of broom-ball on skates iat the Dome rink Tuesday evening, the same brooms and a football. soft and partly covered with water and the newspaper guys not only had the hides of the bankers on the line but their shirts, trousers and So6ks as well. ‘M. R. Complin, manager of the Bank of Commerce made a score in one with the youngsters on the rink Monday night and so cocky did he become that the next morn ing long before we ever thought he got out of bed a challenge was ring ing in the editor’s ears and the game in the evening was the result. The bankers scored the first goal on a long shot about the middle of the second period- and shortly after wards the score was tied and was not'broken until within the last two minutes of play. McKinnon, who was in goal was on his knees gasp ing for breath, when the ball drib bled in. on a long shot by Creech. The line up:' Bankers—Goal, Neale; defense, Tooke and Elliott; forwards McKinnon, Complin and Beavers; sub. Walters. Printers — Goal, West; defense Scruton and Davis; forwards, Laing Creech and Gambrill; sub. South- cott. * .

L. White in the chair. Following the program games and-contests were eiijoyfed and refreshments were' served by the young people of James St. Church. W. C. T. U. MEETINGS A very interesting Parlour Meet ing was held by the W. C. T. U. on Wednesday, February the 20th at the home of Mrs. Pedlar. Miss Ruth Wildfong gave one of her delightful piano solos “Old Black Joe” with variations while Mrs. Coates sang "Sweeter as the Days go by” with sweetness and good expression. Rev. D. McTavish gave 'an address in Which he cited case after case taken from the Temperance Advocate of Crime traceable to intemperance. This, despite the fact that the L. G A. was according to our Premier to be a temperance measure. He also spoke of the difficulty of uprooting an evil which had been a custom in European countries for centuries. He congratulated’ the W. C. T. U. upon the Educational Campaign just com pleted in the Sunday Schools and closed his address with words of en couragement and cheer. Refreshments were served at the close. The W.C.T.U. are grateful ^to Mesdanies Sutton and ■ Freckleton, who were mainly responsible for the success of the meeting. The regular monthly meeting of the W.C.T.U. was held on Monday, February 20th in Janies St. Church. Mrs. Amy, the devotional supt. conducted the opening exercises, giv ing a Bible reading from Psalm 91. Prayers were offered by Mesdanies Kerslake, Miners, Skinner and Miss Murray. The November Clip-Sheet which consisted of some facts from an ad dress given by Mrs. Thornley at the $26.00,u>-Provincial Convention was a promin- made by the Walkerville Brewery. The company discovered that May rand. was handling other liquors and they brought suit against him be fore Judge Raney, Judge, Raney’s decision was to the effect that Can ada’s courts cannot be used to en force contracts that involved the commission of crimes. When one thinks of the gangs of gunmen, hi jackers and desperate criminals of all sorts that carry Canadian Jiquor to American shores one; aught to thank Gpd for Judge Raney’s decis ion. Another encouraging feature was the question as to whether the Brit- . ish North America Act\ gave the right to license and to prohibit the manufacture of liquor to the Pro vince or to the Dominion. The W. C. T. U. has held for some years that this right was given to the Province One by one other societies have come to the same conclusion, the last one being the Temperance Fed4- eration of Canada, in session at Ot tawa last October. It would be ten fold easier to bring pressure to bear on our Provincial Legislature to cut out liquor manufacture than to per suade the Dominion Government to do as they have’alt the provinces to please. , , At the Provincial Convention held* in Toronto the President, Mrs. Asa Gordon offered a silver cup to the .best one-minute speech given by a County President. Twelve of them entered and the prize was won by Mrs. Byron Smith, of St. Catharines. The following is her speech: Let us wake up, Shake up, Get up, And stay up; Let us sing up, Preach up, Pray up, And pay up; Let us never back up, • Or give- up, Or let up, Or shut up, Until Prohibition is Built up. i Possessed the Combination The canvasser knocked at the fice door and. walked in with a con fident smile. “Sir,” he i said, “I have for sale a combination carpet-sweeper, talking machine, potato-peeler, can-opener and —” "Get out!” yapped the manager. "I have one. I was married last June.” of- Same Today "What wonderful tales of ^true love the harps of the old poets told.’ "Oh, I don’t know—those harps were lyres.” *>»• BOND SELLING CAMPAIGN The Bond Selling Campaign to support the Boys’ Work in Ontario, is over for another year. Those who' have shown their interest in their country’s future by buying the bonds will be gl,ad to hear that South Huron has again raised her objec tive. This year our objective- was ninety dollars. The boys in this constituency raised $207.50. Good work fellows! Keep it up, ’ . The following are the amounts raised by the different districts. Seaforth .....................$ 82,00 Exeter ...... „............... 45.50 Brucefield ........ ........... 29.50Hensall ......... ..... 20.00 Grand Bend ............ 17.00 Kippen ........ ................ 13.50 * Total ....... .............. $207.60 The boys of Ontario wish to thank you for your co-operation and yout appreciation of the Boy’s Work in Ontario, ent part of the program. In this address reference was made to the attitude of Magistrate Smith, of Sandwich, who ruled that Liquor for export purposes cannot be held in warehouses but must go direct from the train or motor car to the boat or train that is to land it in the United States. This would do away with the 'huge stocks of liquor held at border points waiting a chance to smuggle them out and from which Canadian bootleggers get theii’ sup plies. Further: Magistrate Smith held that all liquor export business to the United States is illegal because liq uor cannot bo delivered in that country without the commission of a crime and no country can sanction in its courts what is a crime in another country. Another item of interest was Judge Raney’s decision in the suit brought against Arthur Mayrand by the Walkerside Browing Co,. It came about in this way, Arthur Mayrand, who owned an export dock at Sand wich, had contracted with tho com pany to handle no litfuot except that We heard a slow poke described the other day as “moving just like a worm with rheumatism.” One of the lessons that most of us have to learn if we expect to be very'happy is, not to, do what we like, but like what we Wave to do. Still, when a perfect man appears and urges people to be like him, they will listen respectfully.
