In fact there were people here whom we have not been here since last pay parade. 0-0-0 After pay parade films were shown for the rest of the evening, which were very good, especially the one on the history of artillery—which' ranged from the old muzzle leaders to the present day. Those old, guns must have been something, especially for the enemy* They killed at both ends. 0-0-0 The evening was topped off with card games, and it was like a typical pay day in the army—everyone was Rockefeller for one night, that is. I’ll bet there was a lot of wives waiting up to get their hands on’ the loot. Maybe the Christmas bonus was not enough. 0-0-0 Preparations are now being made for the Christmas banquet and kiddies party. The unit is hoping for as good a turnout. Two things really count for a good turnout in this unit—one is money, the other is food. So let’s all be on hand for this do, battery mem­ bers. 0-0-0- This is rather short this week, but so am I, and so is the news. But watch for this column next week for the annual round-up of all the hap­ penings around this unit in the past year. cd and the offertory prayer was given by Rev. A. Nimmo.

The two teams were charged with a total of fifteen penalties * including two majors and a misconduct, when Crew- son, Sims and Harriston’s Gilbert tangled in the third period. Harriston showed they meant busi­ ness right at the beginning of the first period, when they potted in three goals in rapid succession in the first four minutes of play. Wingham came back with two tallies, but the visitors notched another in the dying minutes of the frame, giving them a two-goal edge on the locals. The Mohawks came back strong in the second stanza, flashing the light twice in the first half of the frame, to tie up the game. Harriston’s lone counter came at the end of the period when Barber clicked on a pass from Rome and Maslen. The third period belonged to Harris­ ton, who rapped home three goals without a reply. Arthurs was best for Harriston, per­ forming the hat trick, tance of R. Dewberry, ton led the Wingham goals and one assist.
