The Indians outscored the Orphans 3-2 in the last period but could not get the goal that would tie things up. The period had just got under way when Danny Proctor got one to make it 5-4. Brother Cy came right back for the Orphans and the Orphans were again two up. Half way through the period Dolson broke away in the clear and put the Owen Sound gang two up. The Indians kept up the pressure but could not put one past Lumley until the last three minutes of play when they banged two in. The last one was 20 seconds before time up. The ice was very sticky this period and it was really surprising that play was sustained at such a terrific pace as it was. * * * * * OWEN SOLIND -- Goal, Lumley; defence, Yoe, Blair; centre, Cy Proc- tor; wings, Smith, -Bloomfield; altern- ates, Dolson, Shears, Tenant, Foster, McConnachie.

PILOT-WROTE POEM Lost Life On Service In December • Pilot Officer John Gillespie Magee, Jr„ an Atherican citizen born of mis- sionary parents in Shanghai and edu- cated at Britain's famed Rugby School, was killed on active service in Brit- ain last December 11th. He was 19 years old and had the cause of free- dom in his heart, Pilot Officer Magee had poetry in his heart too, and, in the form of a sonnet, he left a message to youth which his parents consider may be a greater ,thing than anything he had done in the way of fighting. The sonnet was composed last September as the exultant freedom of soaring 30,000 feet over the earth made a word-pattern in his mind. These words were scribbled on the hack of a letter after lie ;had returned to earth,- HIGH FLIGHT Oh, I have slipped the surly bonds of earth And danced the skies on laughter- • silvered wings; Sunward I've climbed, and joined the tumbling mirth Of Sun-split clouds - and done a hundred things. You have not dreamed of-wheeled and soarde and swung High in the sunlit silence. Hov'ring there; I've chased the shouting wind along, and flung My eager craft through footless hallS of air.

In towns and ,cities only those Canadians 'who deal directly with farmers seem to realize that a great part of their earnings come from sales made to farmers, dir- ectly and indirectly. Whether a farm makes money or loses money the purchases which must be made .to keep it opdrating are im- portant to all who make or sell the ,goods and services that farmers buy. Few realize that a farm is a business as well as a home, Aside from the 'things which town families buy, nearly all, of which are equally important to farm families, farmers must buy all -that is required for production. Before production starts the farm lutist have a plant suitable for its pur- 'pose. Land is only the beginning. A house is required in ,town or country but a modern farm home needs more equipment than a town home. If a -water system is installed, motors, -pumps, pressure tanks and septic tanks, are all extras. Modern barns need ventilating systems, water systems, steel stalls Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue I've topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace, Where never lark, nor even eagle flew; And, while with silent lifting mind I've trod The high, untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand and touched the face of God.

Templeman and Hilbert were the goal getters for Wingham in the early second with Blares notching one for Milverton. In this peridd Wingham got 'three more before Milverton got their two. This made' the score five to three and it stayed that way as neither team scored in the final period.

The Owen Sound Orphans defeated the Indians here Friday night, in the first of home and home series for the top position in the group, by the very close margin of 1 goal. The Orphans took the first period by the large score of 5-1 and this was barely enough to win the game, as the Indians put up plenty of fight and never gave up. In the second the Indians notched two to out the lead down to 5-3. In the fin- al period they out scored the .Orphans 3-2 but could not get the counter to tie the score, The arena was packed for the game over 1250 were on hand, The ice was rather soft which made play very dif- ficult at times for the players; Al- though the game could not be classed as a rough affair it was quite stren- uous at times.. Referee Evan Brill of Guelph handed out 15 penalties and at one time in the second period there were five men in the penalty; box at One time, This was near the end of the period and the third stanza started with the five still in the box. The disastrous first period started off with Wit Johnston scoring in less than a minute of play, Cy Proctor beat the (,Indians to the puck and put one by Neaslip, This was the first of five goals in about five minutes and the fans were set right pack on their seats as Cy got another, then Dotson one and Smith 'two.
