The Berlin News -Record of July I6th says : The tide has turned. It baa remained for tbeJunlor Rangers to do what the veterene couldn't or wouldn't, Tbat wae, to win a Western Aesooiation football match. But they did it, Great is the honor they have won, Doubly eo, ender the eiroometenoee. With a leadt three hr a goals to over. ante in one game, and four to tbe good, to win, the task seemed a 13erouleau one,. But the boys made good. Tboy played the 'netting Lietowel club off their feet. Lietowel players, who were so cooky and gay at 0 p. m , were bumped down and out in a feel and ex. citing game. Nowithstandiug the more, the game was fought hard from start to ftuieh, the Northern boys atabbornly contesting every foot of ground, But the Rangers were hungry for victory and ewept all before them, Brinker in goal for Berlin had only two ebote to atop. Thie tells in a nut. shell whioh forwards were en the ball the biggeet part of the time. The game and theohampionebip was won in the last half, ae at half time the more wae only 1 to 0 in Berlin'o favor. The winning goal for the W. F. A, leaders was taken ',boat live minutes before the end of the game. There was one eneoaraging feature about the game. The teals went onto the field full of aoufidonoe and deter. mination then they could win the game and the round. And they played with an eutbueittem and vim that never let np anti now they wear the senile that won't 001330 off, The game didn't begin until 7.05, with A. A. Bamford, of Lietowel, as referee and the playere lined up ae follows :— einetaxx.Lre'rowii e Bricker,,,,,,,,,,,,, Goal Taylor.

'Theyran faster, kinked truer and oheoked better than the visitors, and soon people began lo sok how the Lietowel olub ever came to ton »p snob a more at home. Bttt, notwithstanding the continued onslaught on goal, there was no eooring until about 28 minutes' play when Beinkert tallied on a One drop. With the goal nearer in eight they played harder than ever in the amend half whioh began at 7 46. At 7,66, the lead ,Ida been pulled dean another, Brinkett again being Jointly on the Spot, Exoitemeut woo intense and the ball seldom went beyond the Listowel bait. Io one of the Berliner/age's, a Berlin player charged Taylor In goal and he was going to bump bank. E. Dement jumped in end handed Taylor one, and then the game wept on. The tieing goal was shot by Moser, the midget right wing, Then pandemonium broke loose for, fair, Nerved with enthgeiaem of the crowd and the keens of the play, Dgmart made a hard 000, and wlib oanuon-ball velocity put througb the last and winning goal. Only n few minutee' more play remained and the vioitore maid not more. Every mother's sort of the Rangers played a grand game, bet the work of Ezra Dgmart entitles him to epeoial mention. 'Twee a grand game and a good boost for football here. If ever anything happened ae a rebuke to muachineet, it wae the big more that was rolled op on goalkeeper Taylor, of Listowel. Of all the mouthy playere who worked overtime throwing out insult- ing and Warring thanks of talk be was the limit. Had it been in some towns be woold have been either pot oat of the grounds or pot out of business by the rooters. The poke he got was not au. deserved—bat rather richly merited. People We Know. P.
