The. Colts appear much stronger ..than last year especially in goalj: though we think . Kennedy is a .better’defense man than some that are-playing there now. The game was fairly clean, . al- , ..though, , considerable ,.slashing, and. , hooking got by in the last period. The Tribe drew a pair of penalties in the first period, one of which was costly. Bert Mitchell drew a seem­ ingly undeserved penalty when he hit Pickett hard but cleanly as the latter tried, to split the defense.- Bert had barely-got back when Somers tripped Gibbs as the latter was sailing in for a .clear shot. While he was off a Clinton mass attack produced results, Holmes, tipping in Punch McEwen’s rebound at the 12 minute mark. Four minutes later these two clicked again McEwen doing the shooting. The Braves had a couple of fair chances but couldn’t click. The,Colts added four more in the second without any serious threat from the Tribe. Three of the goals in this .period were of the soft var- .Wingham Hurons made it el- tety» two being long shots that slip­ ped. by Zulauf, the third coming from a face-off and going between Lome's feet before he even saw it, McKay, ex-Goderich star, drew the only pen­ alty of the period for tripping Sturdy, playing his first O.H.A. game. John performed as capably as could be de­ sired against such opposition as Pic­ kett and Punch McEwen, both tried and proven centre stars. The Hurons’ got their>lone goal in the final session, but' this was -more than matched by three more from the sticks of the- Colts. The first play of/the period ended up’in the Wing-, .ham nets, Holmes taking McEwen’s pgss and driving-one through Zulauf.'s pads, The same player made his third of* the night a few minutes later, Gibbs ending the Clinton scoring on U- pass from Pickett. The Hurons’ lone tally came about three minutes from the end, Harold Mitchell bat­ ting in McDonald’s rebound. Al­ though the Tribe didn’t look good against the Colts Monday night they hope to do better on the wider ice Friday night, Be on hand and give the Tribe a little encouragement.

Oyer slippery roads the Wingham Hurons went to Ripley on Tuesday and the Redmen won their first game of the season by the narrow margin of one goal, the final score being 3-2. Geo, Ahearn put Ripley on top in the first period after 15 minutes of play when he let fly a high shot that landed behind Zulauf, Riplqy had t,he best of this period, their attack was stronger than the Hurons and they seemed, to handle the puck with greater ease on the sticky ice .

These values effective Jan* 16 to 18* Tuesday night the fans saw two very close, hard-fought battles, when Lower Wingham and Gurney’s play­ ed a 2-2- tie game, and the Bearcats nosed out Lloyd’s 3-2, In’the first game Gurney’s were without Douglas in goal, Anderson taking his place, and were hard-press­ ed get away with a tie-game. The refereeing was lax and this tended to mix up the game as tripping went unnoticed and in the final session, af­ ter different skirmis.hehs failed to produce results, Mellor and Temple­ man tangled near Gurney’s goal and had . to be pried apart. The second game was a real tussle, Lloyd’s looking better than ever and .gave.the Bearcats all they could han­ dle. Barney Brown was' a great asset to the Woodworkers, engineering sev­ eral dangerous attacks. Groves cop­ ped the honor for scoring, netting two for the Bearcats. Monday night, Bearcats and Lloyds meet in the first game, while Gurneys and L.' Wingham clash in the sec­ ond. These are the postponed games, and judging by Tuesday’s should be interesting.

This arrangement will help the O.H.A. squad when they are short-handed, and will give any Town Leaguer a chance to play in the ’’big time” if he gets the call. C. OF C. RECEIVE REPLY FROM HON. J. R. ILSLEY The following is a letter received by Mr. Herbert Campbell, President of the Chamber of Commerce, in re­ ply to his letter to the Minister of National ’Revenue re the closing of the local Customs Office. ■ Ottawa, 7th January, 1936 Dear Sir:— I have your letter of the 3rd instant protesting on behalf of the citizens and business men of Wingham against the closing of the Customs- Excise Office at Wingham. t By way of explanatiort permit me to draw your attention to the fact that for some considerable time the view has prevailed that there were a great many more Ctistoms-Excise Of­ fices in Canada than business war­ ranted. The question .was given con­ sideration by the Parliamentary En­ quiry Committee which investigated the administration of the Department of Customs and Excise in 1926, and bne i>f their recommendations was The Januar^meeting 'o'f'Tfie 'Wo­ man’s Missionary Society* of Wing- Missionary Society/Had Splendid 1935 ; that the number of ports of entryj should be reduced. The same recom­ mendation was made by the Royal j Commission on Customs and Excise j in their report made to the Govern-1 fhent on the 15th of October, 1927, and also by Messrs. Clarkson, Gor­ don and Dilworth in their report, dat- ed February, 1928, This . whole matter has recently been given'very serious consideration by the Government and the decision was reached that CustomsrExcise .of­ fices where the amount of Customs- Excise business did not warrant their retention should be closed. It is real­ ized, of course, that the closing of an office which has been in existence fort many years will be felt by mer­ chants and others who transacted their business there, but in these days of financial stringency it is incumb­ ent upon this Department to curtail its administrative expenditure wherev­ er it can be done without impairing the efficiency of the Service, and the action that has been taken with res­ pect. to Wingham and, a number ’.of other similar offices is a part of this policy. I note your suggestion that provis­ ion might be made for Customs clear­ ances to be made at Federal Govern­ ment offices, such as the Post Office, but this is not practicable, The clear­ ing of miscellaneous merchandise is not a simple matter and better and more efficient service can be given at the larger ports. When they understand the position I feel confident that the members of your Chamber of Commerce will , agree that this Department should be run on the same lines as a successful business and that the’' expenditure in­ volved in collecting. ‘ the revenue . should be the minimum’ consistent i with safety and efficiency. ' , Yours .very.;truly, U. *, J. JR., tistey. • ■' Many people have shopped at the Walker Store and have found wonderful value offered*as January Specials, these are added Specials for the second and final week.

Good reports were also given by the leaders of the Mission Band and Baby Band. The Scripture was taken by Mrs. M. Griffin and Mrs. Christie led the devotions.' Miss Car­ oline Wellwood gave a most interest­ ing and instructive illustrated talk on her trip through Northern China and Tibet. Not often is it the privilege of the ladies to see such splendid pictures, many of which Miss Well­ wood took herself. Travelling from Nanking, where she showed the very modern hospital unit, manned entire­ ly by Chinese nurses, into the closed country of Tibet, only taught how great yet, is the need of missionary effort. Plans were made for the Wed­ nesday evening service during week of prayer of which the W. S. had charge.
