ISSUE NUMBER TEN.
A pup owned!by Mr. and Mrs.
Howard Hays gave warning and
sav-
ed their lives when rile broke oat
their home at Windsor, Sunday
morning, February 24th. Mr. Hays
is a son' of Mr. and .Mrs. James

account appeared in thc Windsor
paper: "Boon
Bull Lost in Fire Af-
ter Saving Three Lives. --'Doc,' a
seven -month-old .Roston bull pup,
owned by Mr. and Mrs. Howard
Hays, yelping a warning in a loom
of the burning attic in the building at
the corner of.,Devonshire and Wyan-
dotte streets, early Sunday morning,
saved the lives of Mr. and Mrs.
Hays and that of Mrs. M. Truman,
anotheroccupantof the place, Mr.
Flays stated today. 1n saving his
master and mistress, 'Doc' made the
supreme 'sacrifice. The barking of

ed Mrs. I:Iay% who after arousing her
husband, was carried to the street, by
Constable Carl Foster, of the Walic-
erville police force, when he entered
the building to ensue the safe retreat

time to cover het•;tirltt apparel with
a coat before her rescue was effected,

COLLEGIATE NOTES,
hockey appears' to have been be
eltief diversion of the Collegiate pu-
pils during the past week, Several ex-
citing games have been indulged in.
(•test the Duncan Cup team had a
forty-five minute encounter with Bill
Hart's "Wanderers" and turned in a
victory at 7-1. Next the Collegiate
WOS.SA team did battle nobly with
the hockey enthusiasts of Main street
and following the precedent establish-
ed b
stablish-elh their juniors forr
s of the Duncan Cup
n the longend of
pulledout n
team
,
•.he score. Still feeling in the need of
strenuous exercise the upper school
boys challenged therest of the school
to a game and trimmed them 2-1.
Lastly and most sadly Dot Reids,
"Ramblers" rambled right away like
an old Ford from the Collegiate Kids
in a Duncan Cup fix1ture played Tues-
day at 7:30 p.m., winning handily by
5-1, This ties the Collegiate with the
Ramblers for first 'place and unless
one of these teams' loses in the re-
maining games of the schedule a
game to decide the winner of the Cup
will have to be played.

and elders. Rev. Dr. Larkin occupied
the Moderator's chair. The usual
nowt of routine amount u e bust ess
n of the
February meeting, appointing com-
mittees and hearing reports, was
transacted. The various reports gave
evidence of faithful prosecution of
the churoh's 'work in its many'
de
-
partments. There were a number of
outstanding examples of liberality in
contributions by congret;ations tow-
ard the General Assembly budget. .
The chief item of new business be-
fore the court was a call from Knox

Intosh, of Brucefield, It was hearty
and unanimous, offering a stipend of
$2,000 per year, a free manse and a

The following resolution tt
cso t tan was un-
g
animousty adopted "Whereas the re-
cent progressive legislation in Can-
ada dealing with the Liquor Traffic.
is practically effectittg a revolution,
inasmuch as it is eradicating an insti-
tution which for generations has been
firmly rooted in the political, indust-
rial, and social Life of the people and
consequently, the thing to -be wond-
ered at, is not that difficulties are be-
ing encountered in an attempt to en-
force the law, but that so much
progress has been made in so short
a time, And whereas, we believe that
notwithstanding all the difficulties in
the way. the 'beneficial results, com-
mercially and individually are such as
to warrant the continuance of the
law. And 'whereas, we are convinc-
ed that conditions in Quebec and
British Columbia under Government
Sale of Liquor, do not suggest the
wisdom of a similar experiment being
tied in the Province of Ontario. And
whereas. we are persuaded that to
repeal the present law, or to establish
a system of Government Vendors,
would be disastrous alike to the' moral
and commercial interests of the
Province, Therefore we, the Presby-
tery of Huron, declare ourselves as
opposed to hasty action in regard to
the proposed Referendum and re-
spectfully recommend, that in order
to ascertain public •opinion as to the
desirability of submitting the Liquor
Question again to the people of this
Province, the Government appoint a
select committee of the House to sit
during the recess, for the purpose of
getting information on this subject"
