Quite a large crowd attended and were shown the •fattett game of hoekey witnessed here for some time. (Clinton began the scering one minute of iplay when .MeEwan :shot the 'puck past Muir for the first leounte.r. 'The Beavers then took hold of the play and ottclassed and ,olue- scored Clinton tliedfirst period. Many dangerout eushes were made by both teams, but. neither seared. until finally Elvian Rennie put the pock past Twyford after 16 minurtee with the assist, This tied up the :score until Gerd'. Hildebrand seored on a poise from G. Rennie three sec- • befare the bell rang to end the period. .Not one penalty was given, thus showing the elean playing'• of both teams'. Very feet hockey was played with 'some; "snap& combina- tion rwark. 'Clinton had nine' shots on Seaforth's goal and the local boys took 11 shots. at 'PWyford. ,Close. back eheckitug featured the .second ;period. Neither team had the edge but Clinecin; 'slipped in a goal one .minute and anhelf after faoe off. This tied the score and made things more interesting to -watch. Time af- ,tee time it seemed that more goals would have been geored but both Muir and Twyford blocke'd some. shots. Owing to the hard ehecking, forum penalties were givth two to Cliruton and two ,to Seaforth. Ref:eree Kerslak.e checked up pretty :close oh the plays and did not let ye• lled because. of some heavy body - checking. The play was fairly egual in thie period with neither team out - (playing the other and with good hockey ;being played from beginning to end. Hildebrand, Little, Elliott and Glidden received the penalties. final period and deserved the two goals that the visitors countSd'. From the face off ;the ;Beavers had Clinton bottled up in their end: of the rink and it was :only the spectacular stops made Twyford that saved the game fee ;Clinton. The Beavers play ed four men forward. and linton found it hard to get Past their own blue line. Rath, however, broke through and with only one defence player to beat easily .seored on Muir. 'Mere was a setaimble at Clinton's net and' Rex /McGregor, the goal um- pire, raised his hand, but the referee would not count it. The fans were y.elling and cheering, but the Beavers couldn't seem to score, Twenty sec- onds before the end of the fgarne Mc - Ewan seared the fourth counter for Clinton. it wan a hard fought game and the locals deserve credit for the battle they put une Clinton receive.d all the penalties in the third period, Elliott drawing ttvo and Campbell one.

Dear Sin In your issue ot last week, there. wasf an error in my art- icle under the heading of "The Trou- ble Is." I should :have said 'that predecessors of the Henry Govern- ment had mede lea-ne at a higher rate of interest in 1022, ionead of .saying taxes were higher in 1921, and no one criticized the leaders of those Governments fee even paying ae .high as 7 per cent. interest. Well, if •stsch loans were made no one seemed to Tiede(' it di the tinee of prosperity and even; the banke then were quite witling to give loam; to anyone who wore a straight face. But mow alimest everyone is- clatsed as to ,not be trusted by the banks or trust eempanies, unloss one eon se- cure them by govern.ment bonds. If the Governments. :keep on making each year it wen't he long until the bo'nclis be like farm nentgages are now, and if times continue as they are, the Government officials and their staffs will have to come back to 5fl years ego and reduce their .talartes .aceording to the times and all :professional men and manufac- turers ta.ke the same cut as the pro-• &leer is taking. That will make the ipurc'hasing power of th.e dollar do what it did -fifty years ago and then it won't Ise long until irood times will be around the corner end everyone will be on ari equal fo'oteng. • These Delivered e.
