The first home game in N. B. I.
was played In the Viringbam rink on

Septette opposing the locale. A. great
crowd turned rant to• see the locals per-
form and although the genie was rag-
ged utast of the Neely, Wingham won
ettaby a more of 14 to 2. the first half end -
lug 6 to 0 in favor of Wingbant,
Walley Been tit Stretford sterted
the play at 8.16 and it looked for a
while as if the Listowel boys would at
least make the game 'close but in ten
zoinntes Winghera scored amid a
great noise from the eidelines, and as
the Lietowel youngsters weakened,
the score eon to* 5 before half time.
Winghara boys had been shooting
from too fee out and in the second
half they began to bore in op, the Lig-
e
towel net and shot after shot was
rained on the enemies' citadel, and de-
spite Zinkbam's good work in goal
Winghaan added 9 while Listowel got
2 goals on long lifts by Burt and Roos,
For the visitore Eddie Roos was the
particuiter shining star, and Thomson
played e good gatne but rhade many
mistakes, passing the puck in front of
his own goal. Kibbler, a pew man on
• the team, worked bard and .gave
Woodley of the locals a good hot
rtight.. Zinithava in goal was good in
spote but towatds the end of the game
his defence was little use to him and
Wingimm sored at will.
• For the locals it Is always hard. to
pick a star as all played god hockey,
but Ernie Marlett, the little left wing
of the Irak, was always in the spot
light and was ably assisted .by Elliott
as rover, McLean Was good in spots
but wandered all over the ice at thstee''
but his sliots were always right on the
net. Woodley worked hard but was
checked heed and bad little chance to
show his usual game. The tool de-
fence, D. McGillivray, Rose and Jahn-
etort, was almost stone wali,McGilhi
vrey making many good stops, and
• Rose and Johnston rushes were always
datageroua thile each -• blocked well
and elaecked back after a rush up the

In the Town Hala Witigham. on
FrieloY evening of this week, the
people pf Winghare and vicinity will
have the privilege and pleasure of
hearing Rev, Sam, W. Smell, the
famous southern evangelist, journal-
ist, author and lecturer, deliver bis
lecture on "Hie Mejesty the Devil."
To defray expenses, a eilver collection
will be taken at the door, and those
who intend going will have to be there
in good time in order to secure a good
oat,
The following extract, taken from
one of the Toronto paper% will give
• oer readers an idea of iefr,
fame; -
'Rev. Sam, W, Small delivered his
astdress on "His Majesty the Devil" in
• the Princess Theatre, wlsen hmsdreds
were turned away unable to gain ad-
mission. Any man, even an apostle,
• might be proud of the compliments
• pald him at the close of his address
last Sunday night by men who would
• not be considered in any seuse social
reformers or advocates of exacting
prohibitory legislation. But is there
CI) y necessity to quote local testimony
wbere he is so well and favorably
known when the great metropolitan
and cosmopolitan papers of the English
speaking weld have proclaimed with
clarion notes his abilities and the pow-
er of bis oratorical logic ? Waen the
New York Herald speaksof: him as
"a inagnetic master of aesetubliee"
and. the Boston Herald, as "the mot
gifted orator the soutfli has ever sent
this way," and the Wasbington Post
writes "there are not half a dozen men
in the country' who are egeal to him
in peones" power as a speaker."

DRAB SID: --3.11r. Donald McLean, a
resident at one time of the 3rd line of
Morris, died at the home of Mr. Hugh
MoOree, eear Bruce Mines, on Jan.
Ott. He gave nee a few months ago
the following brief sketch of his life: -
He was born on the Island of Mull,
&attend, on the 12th day of May,
18.27. in the year 1829 his parents
emigrated to Canada and for a time
lived in Kingston. In the fail of 1830
they moved to the county of Lanark,
and near where the town of Perth
now steeds they had a claim on a
piece of hind, but on account of sick-
ness tho wens forced to give it up
and they rooved to Toronto, and in
the following year Mr. McLean took a.
homestead in the towoship of Mate -
pose. When moving to his new home
he got wet by falling in a creek, which
brought on infianaraetion of the lenge
and in a few days' time he was dead.
For a number of years they continued
to live on the homestead in order to
make their, claite good, and when that
was completed they sola out and Mrs.
McLean moved back to Toronto, and
the isoy Date (the eubject of this
sketch) went to live with friends in
the township of Metkhatn, with whom
be remained until the fall of 1861
when he moved to the 3rd line of
Morris, neer lielgreve. There Was no
railway to Winghana at that time and
all the grain had to be hauled with
testing to Clinton, and all mereletedise
sold in Winghate had to be handled
in the same way. Mr. McLean took
up tbe profession of driving a team,
and being zontinnouely on the toad,
and as there was a number of men of
the ttatna name, he was tamed Driver
Don McLain, a name that the obi
people knew him better by than any
other. In the year 1888 he came to
Maims, where he resided until hie

• HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
, (By H. A. Reporter)
On Friday last the first tweeting of
the Literary Society for thet term was
held in the assembly hall. The pro-
gram was sbort, consisting chiefly of
the chairman's address, stump speech-
es, a selection by Form II girleaglee
club, the reading of the Journal, and a
selection by the harmonica ban& Mr.
Workman 'acted as critic.
The sclmol seems to have entirely
recovered from the effects of holiday
festivities, and. everything is now go-
ing along nicely, The weekly ex-
aminations commenced on Monday
with what results we almost fear to
know.
Of late much attention is being paid
to our rink. The boys are working
diligently and. bave a large piece of
ice. Thougli a little rough at first it
afforded the students pleasure on
Thursday, Friday and Saturday. The
boys are arranging a hoekey schedule,
but the girls are not .far behind in this
respect. Early nn Saturday afternoon
about sixteen girls reported for hockey
practise. Daring the game the ice
received some rather severe tests as
results of collisions and heavy falls.
But the girls played a surprisingly
good game of hockey and exceeded
even their own expectations. Rules
governing the use of the rink have
been posted. The rink is for the use
of the students only. The thrive now
progressieg will keep the pleasure
seekers from tkating for a thott time,
but when the frost tomes again, we
will forget all about the thaw.

Temperance And Moral Reform.
The Temperance and Moral Reform
Association of Wingbetn met in the
0. 0. F. hall oti the evening of Janu-
ary 10th, Mr. A. E. Lloyd, President,
in the chair. After congratulations
all around. on the splendid vote polled
in the recent Local Option contest
against a strong combination, the
meeting received verbal reports from
the ward. chairmen, who spoke enthu-
siastically on the work, more especial-
ly ward one, which did so well. •
The meeting throughout was very
optimistio regarding future work in
the destruction of the bar -room, the
speakers' being of the opinion that our
town does not contain sufficient popu-
lation according to law for the exis-
tenee of five bar -rooms, and it was
therefore resolved to ask the Ontario
Government in view of the substantial
majority given, to decrease the num-
ber. The officers for the corning term
are -A. E. Vold, President; 13. Scott,

Notable Report.
The Berne of flamitton Ananal
Statement, published. elsewhere in this
paper, eeltibits several features that
indicate a highly successful yeer.
Among these the most noteworthy
are the increase shown in the net pro.
fits; and. the holdings of nouvielpet
and public securities.
•The net profits for the 12 months
es.
ended November 30th, 1000, anamented
to $382,332 or $22,000 more than the
previous year; being at the rate oi
1529 per cent. as compared with 14.41
per cent, last year.
The municipal and. public securities
now heal by the Bank total $e,834,885,
as compared with $3,189,750 at the
same time the previout year. This is
a larger proportionate amount than
most banks carry. It is evident that
aavantage was taken of a favorable
market to invest a portion of the sue -
pine funds in appreciating securities,
It Is also interesting to observe that,
while the increase in deposits was
over 20 per cent., tbe increase in cur-
rent loans was over 25 per cent., tbus
demonstrating that the increase in in-
vestment holdings did not interfere
with the Bank's participation in the
general business activity of the court -
try. The reserve fund now equals the
capital, and the balance carried for-
ward from pee& and loss is $403,665,
which, in proportion to the capital, is
the largest yet reported by any bet&
in Canada, and suggests that next year
the reserve fund will be considerably
in excess of the capital.
Worst Storm Of Whiter.
The storm which swept over On -
tank on Thursday eight and Friday
of• last week, was not accompanied
• with a very heavy suove, but the wind,
which assaulted the proportions of a
blizzard., ousel veey heavy drifts to
farm, and gave the railwaye, both
steam and electtle, a hard fight to
maintain service. Nearly all the
traine were late, and govern" of the
branch lines were completely blocked,
The country rade were quite im-
passible in eorne dittticts, The storm

Fraternal Visit.
About twenty members Of the An-
glican Young People's Association of
St. Paul's church drove to Blyth on
Monday evening to fraternize with
the young people of Trinity ()herds.
A. very pleasant evening was spent in
games, social conversation, etc., after
which a tasty lunch was enjoyed.
Apparently the boys were "afraid to
go home in the dark" (or the rain); at
any rate it was decided for all to re-
main over night. However, the wea-
ther didn't improve by the time inorn-
ing dawned, but notwithstanding the
difficulties occasioned by the bad
roads, the young people arrived home
about noon on Tuesday, none the
worse for their outing, and high -in
their praises of the hospitality of the
Blyth friends. Some thrilling and
amusing experiences are related by
the Wingbau people.
