not capitalize around the net.
Johnnie Masse led the locals in
their strong comeback in the se-
cond when he rifled in two sue-
cesive goals on his terrific slap -

In Working Condition
Do you like the looks of tins
week's Citizens News? We do.—
and we are quite happy to 1: e
able to say that this issue was
printed on the recently installed
newspaper press in our plant here
in Zurich.
The new press was delivered to
Zurich on Saturday by Ruston
Transport, from Toronto. where it
hacl been in operation in the prin-
ting plant of the Salvation Arm;-.
On Monday morning the mecha-
nic arrived from Toronto to set
up the machine, and if hydro pow-
er had been available, by Tuesday
night the press would have been
in operation. However, it did get
rolling late Wednesday night, and
the Citizens News is only one clay
late through the change of equip-
ment.
Installation of this press brings
to an end the disruption in service
at the Citizens News plant and bet-
tor things can be looked for in
the future.
