Then, too, it seems a careless act
to leave a fire on a windy day as
was evidenced in a recent fire the
past week when the fire truck took
its departure after giving the blaze
a fair sprinkling but far from
quenching the flames. However,
neighbors and nearly residents in
terested in the safety of their pro

and carried water until near mid
night. Ten or fifteen minutes more
use of the hose and some action re-
• moving some hay would have saved
some valuable tools ana auto equip

We have no control over the ele
ments and a quick! shift of wind
might easily have ended disastrous
ly had the fires not ween looked af

purpose to criticize the firemen, far
from it, especially at this Christmas
season when peace; on earth good
will toward men should prevail. Of
course admitting it was a very sev
ere cold and frosty day with several
nervous housewives to contend with

of which the Department was not
aware, we may accept as an excuse.
But it is evident a better system of
turning in an alarm tnan that at

nection.
Hoping the fire lad&i'es will take

and not as a criticism for we know

W. C. T. U. MEETING
The regular monthly meeting of
the W. C. T. U. was held in James
S/t. Church, December 15th. Mrs.
Pearce had charge of the Devotional
period. Miss Murray, me president,
had charge of the remainder of the
meeting. The Clip Sheet was taken
up ‘Woman’s Influence as a Citizen’
and the following questions and
answers were read.
What makes a nation great?
A nation is made great, not by its
fruitful acres, but by the men who
cultivate them; not by its great for
ests, but by the men who use.them;
not by its mines, but by the men who
work in them; not by its fine high
ways, but by the men who make
them and travel over them. Great
ness., is a spiritual possession, not a
material one;
will and soul,
cents.
How can a
for her country?
To women the earliest training,
not only of the citizens of the future
but of the legislators of the future,
is entrusted, during the most im
pressionable years of their-life. The
home is the place where the states
men of the future should be trained
to have only w-orthy ideals, and to
give to the children in the home such
ideals as a great patriotic contribu
tion. Nothing is more necessary to
the right control of the vast affairs
of any department of a nation, than
an educated conscience, as well as
a retained mind. Woman’s influ
ence in the home determines the
character of th future statesmen.
How can a woman lie a good citi
zen beyond the home?
.Even women who find it hard to
become interested in Federal or
Provincial matters, because they fail
to see the vital bearing’ these have
upon affairs in their own homes, can
see, surely, that municipal responsi
bilities are right at their doors.

PLYMOUTHS WIN FROM FORDS
- In the second game of the night
the Plymouths outscored the .Fords
by the score of four to two. The
winners got away to a good start
in the opening session and scored
two goals. Both teams lacked sub
stitutes and the Plymouths were
compelled to borrow players from
the other teams. Dick Harness in
the nets for the plymoutns played
a stellar game and saved a number
of what looked to be sure goals,
Berdux was the leading scorer ac
counting for three of the goals. Hilt
Laing scored the other. Bill Davis
and Chester Cornish scored the
goals for the losers. This was the
first time that a number of the
players had been on the ice but at
= that a good display was given. Ray
I Pryde did the refereeing and called
the plays as he saw them. Ernie | McNicol on the defense for the Fords
I handed out a dumber of solid body
checks that slowed down the for
wards considerably. There will be
no games on Thursday night. The
