MONDAY'S CONCERT. • The Young Peoples' League df Wee- ley -Willis ehurch-put on a concert in the church on Monday evening which proved to be a most successful affair. The program was given entirely by local talent;. except for the assistance of Mrs. Vanwick, reader, Winglzam, whose '•contributions were very much a:dpieciated. Mrs. Vanwiek is a fin- ished entertainer, who seemed`equaliy at home in portraying 'scenes grave or gay. Her first number, portray, ing a scene in Belgium during the war' was very well done, but another of a little boy "lceelcing"'at his''Sister and her young' man courting, was equally well done. Clinton people will welcome Mrs. Vanwicic again. Those. taking part in the musical part of the program were: the Syne phony Orchestra, -which gave two numbers in its very . best. style, and thet is saying something. 'The ac- companiment of the pipe 'organ added, not a little to the beauty of these numbers and in the optniose of the writer these two numbers alone were well worth theprice of admission. • Mr.Mnrgan Agnew gave a cornet solo and a- saxiphone sena, with organ accompaniment, both of which were appreciated. Mrs. Agnew and Mrs. W. E. Perdue rendered an organ and, ;piano duet very ,pleasingly,, • Misses Annie Stewart and Ferrol Higgins each rendered. -a caustic of solos very sweetly and pleasingly, and each responded to an`encoi•e, Dr.' Fred G. Thompson and Mr. A. McKintron sang a duet, g the only ,masculine voices .heard, and added variety to the program, M'rs. Agnew acted as aceoanitanist during the entire evening, The program was long enough .bot net too lengthy and seemed to be uni- versally pleasing.

Andrew, formerly assoc- iated with Mr.-S."B. Stothers, District Representative of Huron, but now fin- ishiug his cqqurse;atthe 0. A. C., Guelph, has p , been e coining to the fore this winter in connection with the Inter -College Debating League. This ' League, formed about five years ago, compoeed of an eastern and western group as follows: Ottawa College, Loyola University, Montreal and Bishop ,College, Lennoxville, Que.,. which coniposed the Eastern group as opposed to McGill University, Mont Veal; Queens, Kingston and the Uni- varsity of Toronto.

In a brilliant game played ori last Friday Might, to.break a tie between the St/Pats and the Canadians, the latter won: in "a score .of 3-1, giving there a lead of 2 goals and making them winners of the silver cup offered by The News -Record to the team winning- the greatest number of games in the Town League series. The game Friday night kept the in- tet'est of the spectators from the start. The teams .startod with a 5 -all score and;for a time during the. game Friday they stood with a score of 0 -all, and it looked as if it might end in another tie, but the Canadiens, spurting themselves on, scored two more in quick succession and the game was theirs.' The St. Pats played a' good ganie and the result might have been clif- eerent but for the goal keeping of L. Pearson, who made it extremely die- fieult to get anything in the way of a puck past him. Those who have followed these Town 'League games 'say that the boys have developed wohderfu].l,y dur- ing the season, and many of, them show speed and skill on the ice. The St. Pats seemed' to be in the learn dur- ing ;the first, part of. the season, the Cariadithis running then a close' se- cond, but these two teams do not by any, means contain all the good play- ers, alar did the games inwhich they participated show all the brilliant playing Each team, has in it the makings of brilliant'ilayers.
