WIN FROM CHATHAM IN FIRST (Continued from page 1) Rath was a tower of strength, both defensively and offensively and Stade played steadily in the nets. Line-up: Clinton—Goal, Stade; defence Mc- Kay and Rath; 'centre, R. ,Mcliiwan; wings, F. McEwan, Foster; subs, Streets, Pickett, Kennedy, Muir.' Chatham—Goal, Tremaine; defence I Stover, Pugh; centre, Dagneau; wings, Wilson Harding; subs, Boyer, Lester, Babcock, Lett, Boyer: Referee—W. H. Legg, London. ELORA-DEFEATED 11 TO 6 (Continued from page 1) the story all the way.. A crowd of over fifteen hundred jammed the local arena on Monday night to cheer their favourites on, The visitors also brought along a bus load and several came in cars. • The' game had everything a hoc- key game could have, from a penalty shot to two penalties for the Clinton goalie. Penalties to goalies are very rare, but Stade came in for 'his share in this game. Referee Oliver said in sixteen yeara of refereeing it was the first time he had had occasion to •penalize a goaltender. The Colts put the game away in the first period with the .most daz- zling 20 minutes of hockey they per- haps ever displayed. They ran in five goals without a reply and every goal was brilliantly maneuvered. Af- ter 3 minutes "Red" Rath picked up a pass from Frank McEwan for the first goal of the game. This got the Colts in high gear and the pace for the rest of the period was terrific. McKay was penalized but EIora's power play was feeble. "Bonnie" Foster and R. McEwan combined for the second goal at the ten minute mark. At this juncture Stade was penalized for clipping an Elora play- er with his stick. Kel. Streets took his place in the nets and for a min- ute the fans held their breath, but some nice covering kept Elora well in check. At 17 minutes Neilans and McKay combined for Clinton's third goal, the former storing and in two minutes Streets and, F. McEwan made it 5-0 on the game. Pickett as- sisted Streets and Rath gave McEw- an the pass. Foster took a penalty as the period finished. Tractor Demonstration A Successful Event' The moving pictures showing Allis Chalmers machinery in operation drew a large crowd to the Town Hall last Thursday. The films showing the All -Crop Harvester working on all kinds of crops were interesting, This ma- chine cuts and threshes in one op- eration and requires only two men to operate. At the conclusion of the pictures the crowd gathered around the two tractors which were on display, while those in charge of the demon- stration pointed out the ianprove- ntents made over previous models. The second period was a contrast from the first. It was check and double check all the way and both teams went scoreless, although some nice chances were missed. Kennedy drew the only penalty. Elora came to life in the last per- iod and for a while really had the Colts on the run. Neilans made it 6-0 at the 4 -minute mark, but from then on until about the last five min- utes Elora gave them a merry time .when they rapped in four goals with- out a reply from the Colts. • Blinco got the first one to- be followed in less than a minute by Fisher. Fail- ure tocover up was the cause of the goals. Blinco scored again at the 13 minute 'mark, and the sane play- er got another while Foster was serv- ing time. This .brought the score to 6-4, Perhaps ever -confidence was the cause of the Colts let down, but they recovered in trine to sliphome a couple more . and make the game safe. Foster scored at 17 minutes and McKay wound it up on a solo. With five minutes left Stade took his second penalty for holding and the fans almost went white with fear. Streets again came to the rescue and stopped one hard shot. Clinton was stopped one hard shot. Clinton was given a penalty shot when an Elora player smothered a shot in front of the goal. McEwan tried his luck but Brown stopped it, Blinco was pen- alized but the bell rang to end a very hectic game, Clinton—Goal, Stade; defence, Mc- Kay and Rath; centre, McEwan; wings, F. McEwan, Foster; subs, Pickett, Streets, '.Neilans, Kennedy, Muir. Elora—G(1al, Brown; defence, F. Runnels, Dreyer; centre, Fisher; wings, Quinn, J. Runnels; subs, Hof- fer, Walser, Blinco, Maitland, Figg. Referee -Oliver, Galt. The first game played in Elora last Friday night was won by the Colts by the close score of .3 to 2. Flashing superior team play at eer- tain stages of the game, the Colts were ahead all the way. Clinton took the lead in the first period when the McEwan Bros, clicked . after 4 min- utes of play, Rosspassing to Frank, the latter scoring. Harold Gibbs ad- ded another when; he caught the cor- ner a few moments later. Elora pulled up on even terms with the Colts when Quinn slipped the puck past Stade twice within two minutes of each other. Gibbs was serving a penalty when one of these was scor- ed, Streets scored the winning goal while Runnels was in the box. Lion's . Hockey League Two interesting games of hockey will be played tonight. The final game between the Dents and Cubs who have twice played to a tie should pro- vide plenty of'.thrills. Then the re- turn game between the Firemen and Lions who last week played a dose game ending with the close score of 1-0, should round the night out nice- ly. Previous games played by these respective teams have proved inter- esting, with plenty of laughs thrown in for good measure, Public Ochool Board Meeting The regular meeting of Clinton Public' School .

We sincerely hope that you will al- ways have pleasant memories of your Londesboro friends and we, in turn, shall be glad to hear of your progress and activities as a, nurse -in -training.

We ask you to accept 'this little gift, not merely for its intrinsic va- lue, but as a token of our affection and esteem toward you. Our very best wishes shall go with you to your new work. May God's blessing rest on you and grant that health, happiness and prosperity may be yours.

Signed on behalf of your friends and neighbors,—E, Hesk." Mr, and Mrs. Way both responded in a•. few suitable words. The re- mainder 'of the evening was spent in a social way after which lunch was served. Publicity Given Clinton and District , The wandering reporter for the Free Press has recently been in this locality, digging out facts and taking pictures of interesting people .and places. Pictures of the Lions Quartette, a bridge game at the Rattenbury . Ho- tel, Band practice, .1. E. "Shorty" Cantelon, the Bayfield bridge,. and the George Mair home, north of Clinton, have appeared together with articles relating to them. Mr, Cantelon, who acted as guide for the reporter_ ,is 64 years of age, and is an experienced hunter and sportsman, gave a demonstration of fancy skating on a pair of spring skates he bought 50 years ago for 35 cents and has used continuously since. The George Mair home which is probably one of the oldest, most in- teresting.hontes in Western Ontario, is a typical example of the care with which homes were built years ago. The exterior is studded with approxi- mately 15,000 egg-shaped stones which a former occupant, named Cook, is supposed to have gathered up along Lake Huron some 100 years ago. This must have involved an enormous amount of labor which few of us would care to tackle today. These are interesting little facts we like to hear about. If you have any stowed away we would be glad to hear of them. L.O.L. No. 963, Blyth," was inscribed.. in the icing of the cake. Rev. Brooks complimented Bro.' Taman on his faithfulness and loyalty, and his splendid example as an Orangeman, which was something to be proud of, saying there should be more of these presentations, and that we should not be slow in showing our apprecia- tion, clinching this argument by quot- ing the 'following,yerses: "If with pleasure you are viewing Any work a man is doing, If you like him or you love hint Tell him now. Don't withhold your approbation TII the parson makes oration And he lies with snowy lillies On his brow. For no matter how you shout it, He won't really care about it, He won't know how many tear Drops you have shed. If you think some praise is due hint Now's the time to slip it to him Por he can not read his Tomb Stone, when he's dead. Bro. Taman, though completely ta- ken by surprise, replied very fitting- ly, thanking the brethren very sin- cerely' fox their kindness, and al- though nicely recovering from a ser- ious illness of a year's duration, hop- ed he would be spared many years to meet with them in the future. The W.M,, Bro. Deloss Taman, the Chaplain, and P.C.M., Chas. Stewart, then closed the lodge, after which a bountiful lunch was served by the members, of the lodge. Everyone ifeeling they had spent a very enjoy- able evening together. • BLYTH A very pleasing event took place at the meeting of L.O.L. No. 963, Wed- nesday evening, March 3rd, at the lodge room, which was well filled with members and visitors. After the gen- eral routine of business was conclud- ed several splendid addresses were :given, by Rev, Bro. Brooks, Blyth, Deputy County Master Alvin Smith, and Worshipful Master George Heth- erington,of Bluevale L.O.L. Rev. Mr. Brooks was called to the platform, also Bro. Joseph E. Taman, County Marshall. Past County Mas- ter, Charles Stewart brought from the ante -room a beautiful 3 -storey cake bearing fifty candles, and as- sisted by Rev. Bro. Brooks, present- ed it to Bro. Taman in honor of this fiftieth anniversary as an Orange man.
