lasting a1 to 3 days. It was decided
before game time how many goals
would constitute a game eland the
team that reached • this number first
was the winner. Games consisted in
score ranging from 10 to 100 goals.
The medicine men kept score.
Players were decorated with war
paint, feathers, etc. The game was
preceeded by a 3 or 4 day fast and
savage dances. The last .official !game
of Baggataway was played ;between
the Mohawk and Seneca Indians.
In 1867 year, Confederation, a
Montreal Club drew up a set of
rules. At a 'Convention at Kingston
in this year these were adopted and
the game recognized as Canada's
Nacional game. Geo. W. Bells, a den-
tist was its !organizer. The playing
field was reduced to 100 yards and
12 anen composed a team. The organ-

TI KEEP MWEEK-EN
FREE QF ACCIDENTS
a
Holiday week -ends bring unusual traffic hazards to
Ontario. More drivers and pedestrians use the streets
and highways. More miles are travelled. More time is
spent out of doors, and thousands of children are re-
leased from school. All these factors swell the normal
traffic volume and increase the danger of accidents.
I earnestly urge all citizens, and all leaders in com-
munity and municipal life, to encourage widespread
awareness of the need for safer driving and safer
walking.
The traffic accident record can be kept down—if
each of us does his part. -
The Department of Highways is conducting a planned
attack on accidents. Let us all work together to keep
the approaching holiday period free of accidents.
