THE RETURN OF
"MUTT AND JEFF"
The latest edition of Bud Fisher's
cartoon musical comedy. "Matt and
,Jeff" will be presented at the Town'
Hall, Wingham, for one evening per-
formance only, Wednesday night,
,July 16th.
The "Mutt and Jeff' series of car-
toon comedy presentation, undoubted-
ly the most successful and best liked
.characters found on the ".Funny Pag-
es" of many thousand newspapers
throughout the entire, civilized world,
has now outlived the popularity of
.any other cartoon of all times. Since
the days of• "The Yellow Kids" and
Happy Hooligan" which now date
back some twenty five years, we have
bad characters innumerable, of more
or less success, but the Fisher idea
and, his brain <Itildren have maintain-
ed their popularity more years and in
. n greater number of newspapers than
has any other creation of all time,
Likewise has the public liking for
the stage play of the same title,
hold the attention' of... theatre goers
more years to a profitable businesss,
than any othee play ever boasted of.
• This season "Mutt mid Jeff' is entire -I
ly new excepting for those two well
known artists themselves. Therefore
do not sa,y'that you have seen "Mutt
, and Jeff," or it will be untruthful.
Like the Sunday papers they are all
new every Sunday, so is the stage
version all new every season, with
• dances, music and faces, all just as
different as the daily and weekly
Newspapers. "Mutt aod Jeff" is a
musical showeatering to the masses
of the ordinary theatre goer. There
is no attempt at artistic production
in any way, shape Or form; it is in-
tended for ludierious laughter and
for no other purpoae. Music and
• dancing form a pleasing environment
as also does ptetty giels and beautie
Ltd scenic surroundings.

CALLING IN THE MILITIA FAILS TO KEEP
SHELL GAS FROM DEFEAT THURSDAY
The Shell Gas team in playing
their scheduled, game with Our Gang
found it necessary to all in rein-
forcements from Carling 'Heights,
and probably doe to -their rigid dis-
sipline since going to camp they
kept strictly to business and, were
leading until two men -were out in the
last half of the ninth. .
Both teams played Snappy ball and
it was without doubt one of the best
games this season. In the • ninth in-
ning with two of Wat. McKibbon's
proteges on bales the Shell Gas boys
took to throwing the ball 'around, re-
sulting also in throwing the game
away as both runners scored, winning
the game 5-4. •
The Foundry teatn went down to
defeat on Monday evening at the
hands of the fast travelling Shell Gas
outfit. The game was another of
those hard fought uncertain games,
the final result being in doubt right
up to the last man was retired. The
Shell Gas' secured the most of their
runs in the early kart of the game,
and kept the Foundry scoreless until
the fifth innings.
After the stove makers started scor-
ing they put added zest into the
game and nearly overcame their op-
ponents early lead. The game ending
8-7 for Shell Gas,
The standing of the teams at pres-
ent is as follows:
Foundry
Shell Gas
Our Gang
Fry-Gunxis
won lost
3 2
3 2
2 2
1 3
The games this. yeeek will be,
Thursday, July 10th, Our Gang and
Fry - Gunns; Monday, July 14th,
Shell Gas and Fry-Gunns.
Notes on the League
Fred Elliott, of the Shell Gas nine
leaned on the bat a little heavier than
usual and entered the list of home
run hitters.
Seating accomodation is now pro-
vided for the spectators by the erec-
tion of a small grand stand . It is
hoped that this will be appreciated
and that larger crowds will attend
the games,
The Shell Gas team has shown
marked improvement in their playing
lately. Whether it is the result of
their new sweaters or not we do not
know, but if it is the other teams
ought to get-husy.
If every person had the interests
of the league at heart as much as the
manager of the Shell Gas team, Mr.
'Cecil Merkley, it would prove a big
,boon for the game. Two of his
'team are attending military camp at
London, and in order to place a
strong team in the game he provided
transportation for them
