game was not good, to watch, al-
though it was close and for that rea-
son was rather exciting. Neither
teams produced any startling, hockey,
and a lot of close checking at times
slowed the game up to a walk.
The game was well refereed, with
Doug. T'hoindyke, of Clinton, and Lew
Lavelle of St. Marys giving the
crowd a real exhibition of whistle
tooting. Neither team g o t away
with anything.
"Riley" Johnston a n d "Short"
Campbell were best for the locals,
with D. Stevens and Dunseith the
pick of the visitors. Johnston was
the only player on the local line-up
who played his best hockey. He
scored three of the locals' four goals,
and also played a good game defen-
sively. Clarence Neilans played a :Cine
game in the nets for Clinton, making
some fine saves.
"Riley" Johnston scored the only
goal of the first period on a nice end-
to-end rush with the period about
half gone. St. Marys played a man
short on two occasions but Clinton's
ganging act was a very feeble effort.
For the most part the hockey was
rather ragged.
Shortly after the start of the se-
cond period Seeley took a penalty,
and a St.. Marys ganging play pro-
ducedtwo quick goals, Wybrow and
D. Stevens being the goalgetters,
"Riley" Johnston and Lawson com-
bined for the tying goal, Johnston
taking the Pass, at the blue line and
slipping in for a neat goal Within two
minutes Campbell shot Clinton into
the lead when he scored after a face-
off to the side of the St. Marys net.
In the last period St. Marys out-
scored the locals and finished the
game in a 4 -all tie. Dunseith scored
first, and shortly afterwards D. Ste-
vens put his team ahead, but "Riley"
Johnston tied it up on a scramble shot.
With a minute to go Clarence Neilans
jumped in the air to stop a hot one
and on coming down hit his eye with
his stick and the game was delayed
while he went off for repairs. Pre-
vious to this Elliott was helped off the
ice when he was checked hard by a
St. Marys player. The game ended
In a 4-4 tie.

JACK CLANCY WINS
(Continued from page 1)
and one school waster, trusted him
through all his apparent failures, and
at last Louis Pasteur's efforts were
crowned with honours both academic
and national, until in a popular vote,
he was voted the greatest Frenchman
of all time, the outstanding man of
France and benefactor of mankind.
Mr. Clancy went on to• say that "it
is chiefly as a mean of science that
Pasteur is remembered, and that Pas-
teur's services to mankind can never
be overestimated.
Pasteur's science and his patriotism
were closely intermingled, for, by
his studies o f fermentation, h e
brought renewed prosperity to the
wine and beer industries of France.
Thus France saved more than enough
to pay her debts of the Franco-Ger-
man War."
Launching on a new phase of Pas-
teur's career, the speaker said that
the great scientist's studies of the
silkworm earned him such gratitude
from the people interested in this
business that they invited him as
their candidate at the election of de-
puties. •
Rounding out a well -delivered
speech, Mr. Clancy quoted a declar-
ation of Pasteur's: "My philosophy 'is
not of the head, -but of the heart.
Man should not live by his intellect
alone."
"Life,"' he concluded, "was pre-
cious to hint, and this was his crown-
ing achievement—tci snatch man
from death,"
,,Benson Sutter, the second speaker
of the evening, enlightened his audi-
ence concerning "Our. Legacy from
Greece."
He interestingly outlined Greek
life, its philosophies, its culture, and
drew Our attention to the great debt
this modern world owesto the Greece
of many years ago.
"Architecture ranks high in our
legacies from Ancient Greece. "How
often do we remember, as we view
different beautiful structures, that
architects planned them with the aid
and inspiration they received from
pictures of Doric and Ionic- build-
ings?" Mr. Sutter questioned his
audience.
"Sculpture, and the Olympic Games
of modern days,. follow the same
standards set by the ancient Greeks."
He cbmpared the ancient tragedian
Euripedes, with Bernard Shaw, the
caustic sceptic of present day life, by
declaring that Euripides submitted
the orthodoxies of his age to an acid
criticism and so often gives a discus-
sion instead of action. Oratory play-
ed no small part in Greek li fe. Mr.
Sutter related how Demosthenes ov-
ercame
a serious impediment in
speech by constant practice. He stres-
sed the cultural side of Greek' life,
mentioning particularly music, paint-
ing and academic education; andhow
the present form of democracy was
born during the Greek period. The
purest form 'of government wasdur-
ing the Age of'Pericles.
In conclusion the speaker declared
that the greatest contribution of
Greeks to civilization was; political,
religious, and intellectual freedom.
The Greeks have given us an almost
ideal human charactera— rong,
perfectly developed body,; an equally
strong intellect, and feeling, absolute-
ly free and fearless, but held in con-
trol by • reason,
The last speaker of the evening,
Alex. Filshie, in very interesting style
discussed a topic both modern and
ancient, The Rothschilds, famous
banking family" of Europe. He point-
ed to the fact that there is no dis-
tinction whatever between the House
of Rothschild, as this bank was called,
and the Lank of England. Through.
an inquiry in 1928 this was determin-
ed. The speaker contended that the
trade and commerce of the world as
well as Britain's national debt is con-
trolled by. the Bank of England. He
traced the history of the House of
Rothschild, relating of codes, smug-
gling and everntwo sets of books kept
as inventory,
Boundless influence is held by this
great banking firm. Revolts could
be' suppressed without a gun being
fired. Mr. Filshie declared, "1 won-:
der if the House of Rothschild could
prevent the present conflict in Spain.
The Rothschilds have always catered
to royalty and the royalty has reci-
procated. It is not surprising that
the Duke of Windsor is a guest of
this family at present."
The House of Rothschild as a lead-
ing bank have extensive connections
throughout the world namely Sasoons
in Baghdad, in Asia, Montefiores, in
Australia gold reefs, silver mines al-
so the English houses of Mocatto,
Goldsenid, Montagu and many indus-
tries.
Concluding, Mr. Filshie pointed out
very clearly how the Rothschild's have
overnight practically all the world's
gold and if the Rothschild's and the
Bank of England are one it is to
these we must turn, not the League
of Nations if we desire world peace.
Iien. Dougan, president of the Lit-
erarly Society, who presided, called
on some first form girls who present-
ed a clever little dance called, "If all,
the World were Paper," while the jud-
ges, Dr. Thompson, Mr. Fingland and
Mr. Jefferson, deliberated. Miss De -
pew is to becongratulated on the
fine showing of her proteges.
At long last Dr. Thompson an-
nounced that after much thought, the
judges had decided to award the de-
cision to Jack Clancy. Dr. Thomp-
son presented the shield.
Mr. Clancy who also received a book
as a permanent memento of the oc-
casion, congratulated his opponents,
and remarked that they had given him
a hard run.
Closed with "The King."
GODERICH TOWNSHIP

turned home after a week -end visit

The Old Public School
Teacher
The following verses were compos-
ed by Mrs. A. Steep of Goderich town-
ship, as a tribute of a former student,
to Mr. W. H. Johnston, who taught
school in Stanley, township for almost
twenty Years. Mr. Johnston now lives
in Exeter:
Once in a good old Country school,
Where children were taught the Gold-
en Rnle;
There was a teacher studious ever;
Whom childen and ratepayers counted
clever.
This teacher's thoughts were all for
the children's good'
Whether they deserved it or not he
• was always iu the same mood.
Soine children thought he was rather
cross, at times I fear it inay have
been so,
What could you expect, all day on the
go.
He taught the children from nine till
four
Then he would write homework on the
board till six or more.
He was a sincere and tireless worker
In school orchurch work he was nev-
er a shirker.
He was modest and kind. this teacher
of old,
Ile often told his pupils, they were
worth their: weight in gold.
He would weather the storms and
wade through the snow.
Till I often wondered how his feet
could go.
And some of the children who lived
quite near,
To the school they'd gowith right
good cheer.
For they wouldn't care if they froze
their sox
As long as they got the chatterbox.
Now I think that all who read this
rhyme,
Will think as I.do, that he was sub-
lime.
To know and be a pupil of this kind
man,
Is something to be proud of, you'll
' understand.
He taught in Stanley, in S. S. four-
teen,
For nigh twenty years so its plain to
be seen.
I haven't over-estimated him no how,
Mr. W. H. Johnston, of Exeter, now..
