he had beeneire f6rtnight, fallowing a
slight seizure at Clifford: Coining to
Whigham aboot • , .he opened a
tailor shop, employing as many as
twenty hands at one time, and had a
large buSiness cohneetion. But with
changed business :methods and the
progress of highlyestiecialized factory
production this particular business
soon diminished. In the early years
Mr, Webster 'built what • was •the
"Castle" on Carling Terrace,, a very
pretentious' home at that trine, and
where he lived with his parents and
brother,. Some years afterwards it
was purchased for hospital purposes;
and now is thehome of a roost. nec-
eesary .and highly appreciated local
organization. Sad to relate fortune
did not smile any too sweetly on the
builder of this place, and there
seemed an •Amoy of fate that he
should spend' the last few days of an
active life in the shelter of a building
which to him at one time must have
Meant the future of a thousand

LOCAL JUNIORS
• BLANK RIPLEY
The local ydungsters in their first
game ii the Northern League junior
Series blanked the future hopes of
Riplait by 4-0. Although the players
had only about a week of skating in
which to get in condition, they shovv-
ed up remarkably well and by the
time of their -next game here should
be a fast -travelling outfit. The game
was exceptionally clean, only four en-
joying the enforced rest in the pen-
alty box. The score byperiods was
1-0, 2-0, 1-0. The local line-up was:
gcod J. Hughes, left defense A Mit-
'chell, right defense F. Ford centre
W. Gurney, left wing ,G. Garniss,
right wing 4'. Mitchell, subs. B. Mit-
chell, K. Somers.
A LITTLE WHITEWASH
On Monday night the juniors jour-
eeyed to .Kincardineand received
what they administered to Ripley the
previous week, a is al-.
though the dose was only half -Stren-
gth, a M mixture: The game was
one of the fastest played thejun-
ior series for some seasons, and
while the supporters.of the local boys
would have liked to see another vic-
tory, there are no complaints about
their efforts to win.
The line-up:
Kincardine—Goal, Af, Riggin; • de-

O' Hockey' is the' only sport the ageing
men and boys of the town have dur-
ing the winter season,' andt it must
be said they give their very best to
make it interesting and enjoyable for
the public. Their own. satisfa.ction
comes from the thrill of the game
and the exercise it affords. But there
is one factor to be remembered. • A
hockey team cannot be run on semi -
meet and good wishes, Legitimate
travelling expenses and ice privileges
must be provided for. So if you have
a real concern for the'boys give them
that practical sympathy and concern
by attending the games. They need
