Apparently, however, we have been far wide of the mark, as the following quotation from a letter written by Mr. Alex. McKinnon, of Casselton, N.D., to a friend in Seaforth, amply proves. Mr. McKinnon says: "Casselton Golf Club held its annual tournament on January 1st with 36 entries and I en- close a snapshot of the three runners up." In the picture the three run- ners up are shown wearing sleeve- less sweaters and looking quite eom- fortable, while what can be seen of the landscape looks very much like summer. North Dakota must be sit- uated much near to California than we thought. Mr. McKinnon is a bro- ther of Mr. Angus McKinnon, of Tuckeranith. ThE McKILLOP MUTUAL FIRE INSURANCE CO'Y.

NOW PLAYING Merchants Defeat Bankers, 4-2.— On lVforelay, January 19th, at 8.15 p.m. the Palace Rink, crowded to capacity, saw two old rivals, the Bankers and Merchants, skate out on the ice to settle a long -disputed championship. The first period saw the boys at their best. The game was composed most- ly of individual rushes, except for the smooth combination exhibited at times by the Bankers' two forwards, Cluff and Daly. This resulted in the first goal for the Bankers. But the Merchants came back strong and soon evened the score. The Merchants kept up the good work and gradually pulled ahead of the Bankers till the final bell, when they emerged the vic- tors with a score of 4-2. The great Obstacle to the Bankers was the mir- aculous work of the Merchant's goalie, "Chuck" Stewart. Lady Luck smiled sweetly upon Chuck, which made it impossible to heat him. There was no damage done to any of the players, except for an odd battered shit and Gerald Stewart's nicked ear. "Rooster" Muir handled the game to the satisfaction of all. Line-up:— Merchants—Goal, Chuck Stearart; de- fense, Sutherland, Gerald Stewart, Jack Crich; centre, J. Cardno; wings, Corbett, Nelson Cardno, Ed. Daly. Bankers—Goal, Rus.

Wesley Cosens.— On Friday evening, January 16, 1931, at the Bethel and Melville • United Church Manse, Mount Forest, Mary E. Govenlock, beloved wife of Rev. T. Wesley Cosens, exchanged time for eternity and entered the land where the roses never wither and the rain- bows never fade. The subject of this sketch was, united in marriage to her now sorrowing husband at Sea - forth, August 17th, 1892, and with him served the church tn the follorw- ing charges: Belwoocl, Walton, Ford- wich, Brussels, Wallaceburg, Clinton Ontario Street, London Empress Ave, Cornwall, Ottawa Eastern, Lucknow and Lynden. Her experience as a School •teacher helped to igifre her special success in her work among the youth. She was active in her work in the Young People's Society, Sunday School, Women's Missionary Society and in the general work of the church, and was loyal to every- thing the church •stood for. By her tactfulness and winsomness she gain- ed the esteem and support of those with whom she worked. Her Chris- tian life was characterized by con- secration, faith in •and constant reli- ance on prayer. Busy as she was in her church work, she never neglected her home. Here her life found the crown of devotion and to her now sorrowing husband andson she was and in their memory will ever be the true, trusted woman and well lov- ed wife and mother. Her hospitality and her home knew no bounds and many ministerial guests and others cherish the memory of the one who has moved from the hospitable home here to the many mansional home Within the veil. Mrs. Cosens is missed and mourned by a large cir- cle of friends and her meitiory .15 ointment poured forth. IA largely attended memorial service was held in Westminster United Church, Mount Forest on 'Sunday afternoon at three o'clock. The pastor, Rev. E.
