Stratford by winning from Eye-

of 6 to 3, and then holding the locals
to a two all tie in Exeter on Monday

meet Wiarton in the finals. The lo-
cals were''without Ilindllrai.sll, in
Stratford and little "Dodo" was off
for ,over ten minutes with broken
skates, thus they were, handicapped
somewhat. Stratford got two goals
while Clarence was off. _At that it
was a fast•g`ame. The game here on
Monday night was played in mud and
Water. The ice was covered with
water. and the,players after the•game
looked like a bunch of bathers at
Grand Bend. But it wa, hockey all
the way through. In the first period
the locals had it all over Stratford
and it looked as if it was going: to
'be n. runaway for us. But the going
was too heavy and the home: boys
were not i11 as good a shape as ,:(trot -

Stratford has been playing two . or
three times a weeks and they seemed
to stand the, strain better. Hind -

Friday and S:t111 day were Dollar
lays in t.l\1 1)•. , and merchants are
delighted with the: results attained.
111 \vas the first time that Dollar 1)ay
covered two days and the innovation
seems to have been jzlsl; the thing to
give the_ fillip tq.the purchasing pub -
lie: liany of the merchants feel that
Dollar Day should be held twice a
I year, as in many other towns. One
leading .merchant remarked to the
'Journal on night - i
Y u b t that if a
St, Marys: store had not done a good
t business.,, that clay. there wvas'sonie
thing wrong with
the stare. Others..
felt that the Dollar Day of last weelt
made it very evident that the pur
t'chasing public were again ' buying
� with confi,dende, and"this fact in i.t
self was well worth knowing. The
i public has,. to a large extent at least,
started to buy in quantities with a
full conception that prices have a-,
bout. hit the botton in most lines. Al-
most every class of business was re
presented in the Ddllar Day adver-
tising in The Jou1'nal-Argus, and so
far not a complaint has been regis-
tered concerning lack of results. The
crowd. started early on F1•ida,Y :to buy
advertised goods, and buying was go-
ing on even more briskly than ever
whdrl the stores closed on Saturday
night. The public got valise for their
honey—tile best : value that they
have received in years,' and were de-
lighted. =Most of the
buyers.. had
probably less money to spend, bet
were able to buy much more with it
than they could have done during the,
past four or five years.
Dollar Day has :become an institu-
tion in St. Marys, and there is a gen
that Stratford bunch: The Stratford
line .gets the name of being the fast-
est in the 'business, but they found
three others right here that were II
just as fast.. If the ice had leen!
hard it would have been the hardest,
fought game of the. year, The,: fine
spring-like 1Weatherseemed to take
the pep out of the gauge. The crowd
was not _ large as many thought it
was too soft to play. The locals lost
in the semifinals in both the 0.B.A
and N.H.L. To be put out by the
championship team in both leagues
proves that Exeter has been witnes-
sing as fast hockey as was being
played. It has certainly 'put our
town onthe map. The team played
twenty games of hockey in ten weeks
The players; while not Exeter . boys,
live all:around us and by their clean
sportsmanship have tirade a name to
be proud of. The town mightwell
afford to honor the players by a soc-
ial evening.
