Robert Burris
A peasant lad, but yet a peer,
His was no servile sold.
He visioned a world brotherhood,
Humanity its goal,
To be a man, .a real man,
A man of honest worth
He reckoned is a greater thing
Than gold or royal birth.
The cotter's home to him - was dear,
He loved the daisied sod
And all the wild and timid things,
Tho heath and crumpled clod.
He pierced the 'heights and plumbed
the depths,
He knew the human heart
And the strange inconsistencies
-Of life that form a part:
Then burst into immortal Iays
Of love too deep for tears
By Bonnie Doon, whose waters flow,
Loveless throughout the years.
We honour bards of deathless fame
When their birthday returns,
But none of them can sing as sweet
A song as Robert Burns.

Juniors Lose
The Goderich Marines dived into
the Junior O.H.A. grab-bag and3-came
out with a 2-1 win over the Seaforth
Beavers here Thursday night before
a good crowd of fans.
Smarting under the 5-1 defeat in
Goderich Monday evening, the Mar-
ines forced the play at the drop of
the hat and kept the'Beavers in hot
water for the sixty minutes. The
home team underestimated the play-
ing ability of the Marines.
After eighteen and a half minutes
of . the first frame, Doak slipped
through and tallied on his own re-
bound. Rathman made a nice save,
but Doak came in fast and banged it
in.
Wide open hockey and flaring tem-
pers were the order of the game.
Though the game was clean, it was
like the Spanish war: any mix-up
would have caused a major crisis.
The second period went scoreless
and after eight minutes of the third
H. Nicholson 'beat the Marine goalie,
J. Swiger, on a long shot from centre
ice. Play became lightning fast and
McDonald caught Seaforth up on the
attack and broke through for the win-
ning marker.

the worth • and name and the eternal
fame shall remain of him whom we
