Skating,Interestixig Costumes Made It. An Event T o Remember The carnival, which was to be held on Friday evening last took place on Saturday evening and was a decided success in every. way. The rink was beautifully lighted, the Japanese lan- terns producing a brilliantly coloured effect and the ice was in perfect condition. Before the hour appoint- ed a large crowd of spectators ar- rived to enjoy the , evening, their pleasure however was somewhat mar- red by the intense colds The music of the hand announced the arrival of. the Queen of the'Carnival, - Miss Mamie Shaddick, and her attendants, Miss Alma Carter, 1st princess, who acted as crown bearer, and Misses Elda Watson, Helen Johnston, Helen Youngblutt and Edith Beacom:. Idr, Ernest Adams in a brief but. fitting speech explained the choosing of the queen and the princesses. He then placed the crown on the queen's head and the carnival was opened. 'this was followed by a hoekey match between the fat and the lean teams, brooms being used instead of hockey sticks and a football for a puck. As the ice was very glassy and the men wore shoes instead of skates their endeavours to chase the puck were mirth provoking and called forth, the applause of the onlookers many tunes. The game resulted ,in a score of 1-0 in favour of the lean team. Those in costume then took the ice. The different classes were well con- tested, many of the costumes being unito original, " The following is a list of the prize winners: Juvenile couple, under 12, in fancy dress, Phyllis Manning and Eddie McNall; 2nd, Melvin Brunsdon and Clifford •Sundercoel, 'Girl. in fancy dress, under 12: Phyllis Manning and Phyllis, McCool.

On the start it looked like a walkaway for the Leafs, when they ran in three quick goals, McClinchey scoring one, and Cook two. Then the Senators came to life and Harold Johnston scored, followed just as the bell tang by one by Beecher 'Streets. Lorne Brown got the only penalty. McClinehey scored the first for the Leafs in the second and then Johnston scored for the Senators. After two minutes M'eClinchey scor- ed twice to make a total of four goals in one evening. Then Owen Combo went on the war path and scored three tines in arrow, once on a beau- tiful' solo rush, and the other times getting assistance from some of his team mates.: This tied things all up, No penalties, In the final stanza the Senators went one up when Reg. ,Smith scor- ed on a pass from Combe. Gerald Holmes tied it up on it shot from close in. Smith again broke the tie, and ;Comlbe on scoring his fourth goal of the evening put the Senators 2 up. Earl Fulford 'finished the scoring, on a face -,off from in front of the Senators goal, giving Levis no chance to save. Final score 9-8 for the Senators. Penalties: Kutch and" Sniith.

JOKING ON SERIOUS SUBJECTS Peoples' Representatives amuse Themselves occasionally at each Other's Expense Ottawa, Feb. 14.—Heaven, ,hell and purgatory when discussed in parliament provide a sudden change from tariffs, unemployment and bro- ken election promises. The three realms of the future life were mentioned yesterday when Hon. R. J. Manion, Minister of Railways and Canals, chided Rt. Hon. W. L. Mackenzie King, Liberal leader, with making a long pessiinistic speech. "I spent my time reading the 42 pages of it, on a 'trip to `Fort Wil- lien," Dr. Manion told the House. "I belong to that religion which be - Heves in purgatory and since read- ing that speech I have come to the conclusion that when I suffer in pur- gatory for urgatory-for my sins I am .going to be forced to do my suffering reading the 'tight honourable gentleman's speech." "I hope," Mr Ring retorted, "my honorable friend does not flatter himself by thinking he will get off with purgatory." "Well, I am ever' more convinced," Dr. Manion shot back, "if I go to heli I will be 'reading his speeches all the tune," 'IMy honorable friend can be very happy," Mr. King rejoined, "even in hell if he does not have to listen to the Praire Minister." "Probably the Prime Minister will not go there," Dr. Manion replied. "He will probably go to a better' land than either my right honorable friend or myself." and : Mrs. Percy "Manning, Mr. and Mits.
