(HAJIBER OF COMMERCE j ELECT OFFICERS I The Exeter (.’number of Commerced Efforts are being made to start held their annual meeting iu tlio’tlie town hockey league on Friday form of a banquet at the Central Ho- niSht of this week. Those having a tel on Friday evening of last week,,team to entP1’ are raqjiested to noth -There was a good attendance and a-iy J- G. Cochrane go that a schedule sumptuous repast was provided, Fol­ lowing the supper Mr. B.W.F. Beav­ ers, the president, took charge of the program and stated that whjle the Chamber of Commerge had been .unable to accomplish anything near wlrat they would liked to have done yet the work of the year showed that they had not been altogether idle. The Chamber of Commerce had in­ terested fice; in tion; in e-ter and receiving rural mail were now being seryed. The question of a hospital for Exeter yvas still under advise­ ment. One young lad in town in need of medical care had udergone an operation through the assistance of the members. The Santa Claus Fund is now looked upon us an an­ nual affair and this year the respon­ ses were greater than ever. Rev. J. B. Rhodes was present and spoke of the socjalibility of getting together as business men and in this Way becoming a little better acquain­ ted with one another. Had the ^Chamber of Commerce left undone some of the things that have been undertaken Exeter would not have the community spirit that exists at present. x Mr. W. G. Medd, M.L.A., spoke of a recent visjt to Exeter, Mass., and displayed a. pamphlet setting forth the advantages of the Massa­ chusetts town. A motion was passed to forward a request to the B'ell Telephone Co., that the telephone pole in front of the new Post Office, which rather mars the beauty of the new struc­ ture be moved a few feet to South. A. committee was appointed take some action in reference to tertaining the young people who in attendance at the Agricultural Short Course now being held in Ex- ter. Tho election of officers resulted as follows: Honorary Presidents. W. G. Medd, M.L.A., Major Wood, of London, B. M. Francis, Reeve and MS- W-. F. Beaversi-Pmesident, T. Or­ ville Southcott; Vice-President./Dr. J. II. Browning; Secretary-Treasur­ er, M1. R. Complin; Directors, L. J. Penhale, Thos. Prydc, .T. W. Powell, H. C. Rivers, A. O. Elliot, J. M. Southcott. A fine spirit of optimism prevailed among the members and tho interests of the town will careful consideration during coming year. may be drawn up. EXETER AVINS GROUP Exeter won the group honors in Junior O. II. A, when they defeated St. (Marys on the local ice on Fri­ day evening last. This was the fourth straight game the locals won from the players of the Stone town. Mitchell and Clinton are playing in Mitchell to-night, Wednesday, to de­ cide tlie winners of their group and Exeter Juniors will meet the win­ ners of this group. Tho game Friday night was fast and interesting. The scoring start-, ed with the drop of the puck and before St, Marys knew what was happening the locals had scored two goals. Creech tallied the first coun­ ter and Snell the second. Passmore added another. At -one time St. Marys broke through the defense anp with every eliancq to score shot wide of the goal. The second period was faster than the first with the play fairly even. McRobb for the visitors scored and the frame was evened up when Snell scored following a scramble in front of the nets. The third period was inclined to be rough with St. Marys taking the aggressive and putting every ounce of strength into the ga'me. One of the Exeter defense men attempted to shoot the puck out from in front of the Exeter goal but he missed it entirely and M. Woods scored the first counter for' the period. St. Marys scored another goal and the game ended 4 to 3 in favor of Exe­ ter. During the second period a couple of the player^ started a fistic en­ counter which continued -after the players had gone to the penalty box. They were soon quieted. Referee Cochrane got a surprise when he was upset by one of the players. It was an accident’ how­ ever. . The line-ups: Exeter—Goal. I. Ford; defense, Munn and Passmore; forwards, F. Creech, Snell and Joynt,; subs. Boyle .Howey.and La-ing... — St. Marys—Goal, Goods : defense.' McRobb and Gross; forwards, Rich­ ardson, Woods and White; subs. Woods, Skipper and M’cDougall. STRATFORD AVINS The Stratford W.O.S.S.A. hockey team visited Exeter on Thursday ev­ ening of last week and played a line game of hockey with the High School boys of Exeter. The visitors, how­ ever, were too fast for the locals and i piled up a score of 9-1. The game ;was better than the score would in­ dicate and the fexeter boys put uii i. good exhibition but were unable to get through the strong defense of the Stratford team and score the necessary counters. During the fjrst period Stratford scored tnree goals. They scored four in the second and two in the last. a splendid game for the locals ’successful in scoring’-the only goal for ExetOb in the last period. Tho Stratford lads showed more exper­ ience in combination while tho Ex­ eter boys worked hard but were not as effective. The boys however ! showed over last year, led the bell, was: Goal, I.
