Our boys had it all over Clinton and the fans were proud to see Exeter team work the way they did. They have not had much practice together, as they are all in different teams in the league. If they had had as much practice together as the Clinton team, who have been playing together all win- ter, Exter would have as good a team as any of them. The first 20 The town league played two more minutes Exeter had the Clinton team played off their feet. They had games on Wednesday night that their combination working like a proved real sport. The first game machine and they scored at will. The between the School and the Clerks first period ended Exeter 9, Clinton was a much better battle than a 2. The next 20 Clinton broke up strep - week ago. The School was g git was the com. to some extent and thenad by Harold Boyle and Ed. An- derson and although the School was beaten by a score of 8-5, it was a fairly good game. The first period was the Clerks, the second was all School but the third found the Clerks in top form and they had the best of this last end. The Clerks have a neat little team and have lost only one game this winter. They have won six and lost one, which keeps them on top of the league. The second game at nine o'clock. found the Bankers and the I.O.O,F. in another hard-fought game. The I.O.O.F, came out on top by the score of 5--2. It was a fast and 'furious game; every man on both teams gave the handful of fans the best hockey they had in them. The I.O.O.F. had. the Bankers at their mercy at all times and had it not been for the wonderful work of Ab- bott in goal for the Bankers, the score would have been muck larger. There wase rain of pucks en him all the time, but he is very cool and turns them aside, Stock was as us- ual watched too close to get away. They checked him hard and close. The forward lisle of the I.O.O.F. never worked better and their de- fence were more than good. The I.O. O.F. were forced to use a new man In goal in 13111 Statham.. It was the first time this winter that Bill has been on skates hut he played a won- derful game. If there were more sports like "Old Bill" we would have more of this good old past -time. The T.O.O,F, are wonting well and if the rink had not been dosed by order of the Board of Health, it would have been a hair-raising finis be - tweet the I.O.O,F.and the Clerks, Which should Meet a week from this Wednesday. 3 eter ]Pits It Over Clinton The Clinton Northern elockeY ' .eague team came down on Friday HOCKEY much more even, each team getting two goals. Just at the close of the second period, Senior, our crack center man, received a hard poke which put him out for awhile. He gamely came back but it slowed him up very much for the last 20, which ended one each, making it 12-5 for Exeter. If Exeter could only keep the team together for next winter they could go well in the O.H.A. It is a teanr of youngsters and all are very light. Wells, Senior and Birney make a great forward line. They play all combination and are fair on getting away. They back -check well. The defence is strong in Stock and Harness. They play well together and are great rushers. Stock had the Clinton boys dazed with his speed and stick handling. They were won.- dering where he was going next. Time after time he had the whole Clinton team after him only to be fooled. Abbott played his strong game In goal. He can clear himself as fast as any of them. The crowd was good and every- body enjoyed the game. Some thought Exeter had no chance what- ever with a team like Clinton, but since they saw them working, they have changed their minds and the next game the odds will not be so great against the home team, It was a clean. game from start to finish, Cochrane Handled the game to the satisfaction of everybody.

Elsner Wilson was driving into Exeter about .a mile south on the London Roard, he -met with an ac- cident while driving through a deep pitch -hole. The horse he was driving was a rather spirited animal and ob- jected to the pitch -holes. The cutter was overturned and the occupants thrown. out. When about Huron street the runaway struckanother cutter and the horse was freed. It ran through town, and continued north until it .came. to Hensall. At Hansen it followedanother cutter into one of the church sheds and word was sent to Exeter. Mr. Wilson drove to Heiman, and led it home. While Mr. Fred I3ogarth was delving to his home in Stephen with his family Saturday: evening, he had just turned out while: meeting an- other cutter and in turning back on- to the road, drove into a pitch -hole. The cutter was upset,and the occup- ants thrown out. Thehorse got away and in running down the road col- lided with a horse and cutter, be- longing to Mr. H. Gower. The sbafts and harness became entangled and the latter's. horse was tIirwn- off it's feet. Little damage was done to either of the outfits or occupants. Sunday was possibly the quietest day Exeter has experienced in many year.s . The precautionary measures of the Board of Health in guarding against influenza by closing the churches, together with the cold stormy weather, resulted in few peo- ple venturing far from their own firesides.

Bankers School On Wednesday evening of Iast week the Board of Health held a conference and decided as 'a pre- cautionary measure to close the churches, theatre, skating rink, etc., from Saturday February 14th until further notice. There are very few cases of flu reported in town. The action of the Board is to guard a- gainst an outbreak. Another snow storm and cold snap visited this community Satur- dayevening and Sunday. A strong west wind piled the snow in heaps filling in the roads. The roads of late have been in poor condition ow- ing to the many deep pitch -holes. Considerable work has been needed this winter on the roads to keep them open and fit for traffic. The snow in many places on them is higher than the tops of the fences. It is almost impossible to turn out when meeting another rig. A miscellaneous shower by a num- ber of lady friends of Mrs. A. E. An- drews. (nee Miss Olive Treble) was. held at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Ed. Treble, Monday evening. A num- ber of ladies attended in masquer- ade costume and it was a jolly crowd that took possession of the home: The bride, who is one. of Exe- ter's popular youny ladies and a member of James St. choir, was pre- sented with a splendid array of beautiful gifts.

KEYS, Pres S.H.B.A. JAMES ST_ CHOIR VALENTINE PARTY A very jolly time was spent in James St. church parlors last Friday evening when the ladies of the choir entertained the gentlemen of the choir and the music committee of the church at a Leap Year 'Valen- tine party. The ladies, all attired a- like in white dresses decorated with hearts, provided an enjoyable pro- gram of musical numbers and unique contests which evoked riiuch merri- ment, the prizes being won by Miss Mae Wood, Mr. Harry Rowe and Mr. Herbert Bissett. Then all repaired to the banquet room, which was gor- geous with a profusion of hearts. darts, red streamers, and red candles while the -long tables were laden with tempting viands. After all had done ample justice • to the bounteous repast, Rev. M. 1.. Wilson, B.A., pre- sided over a toast ,list which unmis- takeably proved that James St. choir had plenty of silver-tongued orators. At a late hour the party broke up with a hearty vote of thanks to the ladies for the splendid banquet, and many expressions of appreciation and compliments to the committee, consisting of Mrs. Wright, Miss Es- sery and Miss Gregory, who planned and carried out the arrangements for such a happy evening, with the hope that this would not be the last of such pleasant gatherings. .EXETER, 130Y APPRECIATED Mr. Wallace Fisher, manager 0f a branch of the Canadian Bank of Commerce at Montreal and a son of Mr. William Fisher, of town, has been transferred to the Huntsville branch.
