FOOTBALL.
On Wednesday evening of last
week the Hurons of Tuckersmith in
ail their ' •war ,paint •motored to
Winthrop to give 'battle to •Ferg.
Bullard and his ten 'warriors. Long
before the +ball .was kicked off at
centre ea good crowd was lined up to
sec the warriors in action. 'In the
first half theeWinthropftes had things
pretty much .their. own way es they
had the advantage of the wind and
the Hurons, try as they might,
could aioh . make ,headway • against
Ferg. and his noble warriors with the
result that when the whistle was
blown i
for
the
first.;
peened Winthrop
was leading. Score 1-0.
It was not long in the second half
before the Hurons swoopeddown
with the heap of the wind and all
sails unfturled and put the contest
on tan even footing. And although
the Winthrop •supporters made their
war cries loud and !long their team.
was up against too strong a handi-
cap ]for the Hurons were not to . be
denied and after .persistently trying,
finally managed .to add ; another
goal to their ered'it and put the
game on ice. As this is the first
appearance of Winthrop in the inter-
mediate W.F.A. they deserve great
eradit and alblrough they met with
defeat they putt upa greet 'battle' and
went down -With colors flying. Reid,

SEAFORTH, ONTARIO, THLJRSDAY, MAY 28, 1925.
CHANGES COME WITH
CHANGED CONDITIONS•
At this time of the year, many of
us in ` memory visit again certain
scenes •of citildhood. The, joys and
thrills of In. odd 'swimming -]tole are
experienced once more, but of course
only in reverie. Many cherishes{
though't's have been garnered •froni
happy times spent in and about`' the
Weal bathing places provided ;by Na;
tune The swimming place always gave
pleasure whether ,it was ,supplied by
water which•nteandered. through the
meadow to the hole behind- 'the
gravel ,pits' in Case's field, or was
disturbed by that which carried
froth and .bghbles over the 1?,gniond-
vilte dam to the deeper spot below;
whether it teas the<':water that moved
hieely into the deeper recesses of the
lbl'aetlran'd stream beyond the reme'.
tery or that which, -seemed to rant
luri:tgly by the Roxboro 'bridge.
Likely, however, in fancyyou • visit
most frequently the quarry in Archi-
bald's fla•fs where, mirror-like, that
water reflected your naked .homy
tingling with joy of youthful pranlas.
We readily recall many, very ninny,
happy times spent' in these waters,
and yet today, from advanced meth-
ods in scientific research, we know
that danger lurked, and . still links
in these attractive places where
youth is wont to paddle, bathe and
swim. It is quite possible, yes,
quite likely that certain infectious
diseases were carried and spread as
a result of persons :playing in these
self -same water's. The -results were
probably -:Ear -reaching and of a very
serious ,'nature Any person, who
doubts the fore -going statements.
might not act unwisely by question-
Mg any one of our medical prac-
titioners in the ;natter,. And 'so
today in order to protect our boys
and .girls from .unnecessary infection,
many improvements here and there
throughout the country towns aiid
cities are 'taking place, The Provinc-
ial Government has found if necessary
from a disease preventative stand-
point, to have all swimming pools
and ponds 'made in aecordpnce with
certain specifications, or up - to a
standard that will bear qualified in-
spection, p to in -sure a reasonable
amount
t t of safety.
The Lions Club have undertaken
to provide a swimming pond which
will meet the requirements of the
Provincial Government in every CS-
sentiat. The ,boys and girls of
Seaforth in a very short time will
heave what has been a needed :thing
ell •down through many years. And
as a ,result of this, mothers and
fathers in many instances will be
relieved of real worry about where
their ohildren are and danger from
drowning and other serious -mishaps
will she reduced to a minimufh, The
Lions Club have gone into the mat-
ter quite thoroughly and. feel that
they are more than simply justified
in their ' undertakin , •But they
y
need help, certain assistance from
ypu For that reason, Lions Day
is being observed. The date is
'Thursday, June 4th, and details con-
nected therewith appears in an ad-
vertisement elsewhere in this issue
of the paper; likewise it may be ob-
tained from posters distributed here
and there throughout the town. It
is very little that you are asked to
do, nevertheless ,that little is very
important. Therefore in ;the first
place, do it; in the second instance,
do it with•a right good will.
And, ;by the way, the dinner at the
Olympia promises to ;be something
out of the ordinary We have' been
wondering if the menu will include
Seaforth Mock Turtle soup, Filet of
Chub froni the Barber -Anent trout
reserve,

drill, iucludin the whole corps,
and then each platoon seiparaltely,

smartness and egularity that showed

good was the pleitoon work as direct-
ed by 'Lieutenants 'eV, Sueherland,
W. Hart, re Willis and C, Trott.
The time and .patience of Principal
Spencer' in training the Signallers was
well rewarded in the spelling out of
words on the Fair with an accutlacy
that was most gratifying to the In-
specting Officer' who dictated the
message.. The' boys excelled them-

icalexercises whi;eb were presented

of similar :satisfaction marked the
utterances of Principal Spencer,
'Chairman Aberhart and Chaplain

by three rousing cheeses for the visit-
ing Inspector, which brought to an
end a greatly enjoyed afternoon of
young life in strong, manly and m-
tclligent expression.
