The series opens in Stratford on Fri-
day night.
The, i3eavers qualified for the fin-
als by defeating Paris 5-1 in Galt on

For two periods the game was fair-
ly close, although the Seaforth team
had an edge in the play throughout.
In teP-third period the Beavers net-
ted- three goals on breakaways. with-
out -a reply -from the Black Hawks,..as.
the' Paris. team tried desperately • to
tie up the round. •
In the first period the only goal
was scored. by Cy. Proctor, of the
Beavers as he went through the .de-
fenee to heat- England 'at 8.42. Hal
Stade, •in the Seaforth goal, played
sparkling hockeyand kept the Black
Hawks off the • score sheet. . "Timmer!"
MeEwan gave the Beavers a •two -goal
lead in the game by banging in "Far-
mer" McFaddin's rebound. "Farmer"
shot a low hard one which England
stopped, but McEwan was right on
the play and put it in the net. Paris
got their only goal of the game as
Lloyd Kempthorne shot from a re-
bound, the puck going over Stade's
shoulder.
The Paris fans hopes• were blasted
when Cy. Proctor got his second goal
• •of the game at 11.16. The Hawks
then abandoned all defence. It was
during this all-out effort that the.
Beavers got two more goals on break-
aways, "Farmer" 1Vlaraddin and Len

en earth to ask for words where ac-

pool• war too, for when --you are deal-
ing wf''h Hitler debates are. impos-
sible; delays are dangerous, and war
'aims are unnecessary. But tonight I
face a friendly.. audience and my
words will havehee more effect than
that of helping t•clarify our- thoughts
as we wonder what is going to come
out of all this, and what part we, as
individuals;. we as service clubs; we
as a nation; we as an Empire, are
going to have in the world of tomor-
row. It is because I feel that even
in the days of war we are thinking
of and preparing for an era of peace
that I speak to you of the war aims
of the British Empire.
The very nature of the case, of di•an hospitals and medicai units, 7;

for it but to dig in and keep up with
the need, no neater hoer great it is.
We in Canada. blessed with sunny
shies, free -from -bombs, must work ev-
en ha't•der and recruit even more wo-
maispoaer in preparing for tbe needs
of ,our people in England, Scotland
and Northern Ireland. It's the fem-
inine shoulder to this wheel that will
do the trick and keep the wheel of
comforts turning, ever turning, stead-
ily. steadily and ever-increasing, until
we match destruction with comforts.
How about it . for the duration,

and those ,only thinking they should!
