From coast to coast the Curling Rinks Send out the Bonspiel's call, Wi' broom and stave and Roarin' Game Invites them One and all To come and play the ancient sport, Perhaps old scores to settle. Though keen the battle, friend- ship's there, Each man is on his mettle. True curling spirit leaves behind The jetty things of life. A man shows up his truest self While thickest in the strife. He never gains an unearned point Though shots are few and rare. To play the game, thoUgh win or lose He plays it on the square. In every sport or walk of life Some folk work hard—but try To cover up their own mistakes With a classic alibi. 'Tis true of curlers—bowlers too, When thickest in the fray, They talk of things that might have been, Sometimes you'll hear them say— My foot, it slipped; I took it wide; The ice was far too keen; I was very narrow; our second man He's just a wee bit green; The ice was very sticky Or else it's far too cold; I bumped my shin with the second 'rock; I must be getting old. There's something wrong with that there ice; The end seems awful long; I sure can't get them up today; There must be something wrong. I took the wrong turn—your hard luck; The rules are hardly fair; The umpire didn't measure right, He wasn't hardly square. My opponent took a running shot, He nearly made me sick. He rolled and wiggled in to score, He got a lucky wick. I did an awful thing today, The last end tied the score And then I took our only shot And left them lying four. Oh! What a game this curling is, Sometime's we play so well And, other times we're terrible WESTON'S FEATURE SAVE 4c PAY ONLY 31 Raspberry Jelly Roll e REMINGTON'S I.G.A. No man can ever tell, If bonspiels are .for turkeys, And you beat two rinks, by heck, You lose the third by twenty And all you get's the neck. And. so it goes with alibis, With new ones every day, Get out and play that curling game, So they will always say-- You've lost the game—that's no disgrace, Win, lose or draw, you'll try To play your best, both fair and square, • Without an alibi, KINCARDINE EDITOR ELECTED PRESIDENT R. G. 'Buckingham, publisher of The Kincardine News, was elected president of Class 'A' newspapers at the annual meeting in Montreal, February 19th-20th.
