PAGE FOUR Our pastor hev. W. Haig chose a very appropriate text Sunday after- noon. His subject was the Christian viewpoint of death. He spoke of it in three aspectsâ€"Change of vesture, A departure, and an abundant entrance. His sermon was thought provoking, inspiring, challenging and earnest. He exhorted his hearers to live with eternity in view. Mr. and Mrs. Keffer of Maple call- ed on some of their friends here on Saturday afternoon . The fifty-eighth annual convention of the Markham Township Religious Education Council was held in Mark- ham United church on Friday. Januâ€" ary 27. Rev. W. Haig and MiSS Ma- bel Boynton will report the morning and afternoon session on Sunday aft- ernoon. The report of evening session will be reported later by Mr. Cecil Nichols. A young man who attended Mr. Percey Cober’s sale had a rather uni- que experience. During the after- noon a stranger had kept in rather close quarters with him for some time. Later on putting his han ds in his pocket for his cash, he found his pocket empty. The auctio- neer was advised of his 1055 and an- nounced the fact. In a short time the loser spied his man journeying for the road. Immediately he went around the house and met his man face to face, “Are you the man Who lost the money?” was the stangers question, “I am” said the other. “Here it is, said the stranger. “Be satisfied you have got your money and ask no questions,” he Went on, elated that the lost was found the loser accepted the roll and the stranger disappeared. ‘ Now Mr. Editor facts are sometimes stranger than fiction. Miss Alexander has had a large and attentive class in the hall each after- noon of the week. Very fortunate in- deed is it that our young people have so competent an instructor and one who at the same time is so filled with the spirit of the Master. The Instiâ€" tute are to be congratulated on having such an able nurse in charge. We are sure the lessons taught will be a boon to all. The funeral of the late Mr. P. Pin- gle of Toronto, took place on Tuesday. Miss V. Walker of Toronto Normal school, spent the week end with Miss Viola Avison. Mr. and Mrs. R.F. Klinck have been spending a week with friends in Toronto . One of our strong yoemen partook of a very heavy evening meal a few days ago. About four in the morning- he realized he was very ill and feared that he had taken a stroke. Upon further examination it was found he was suffering from a severe attack of indigestion. He would advise all readers to refrain from an over heavy evening feast. Victoria Square News Notes The past year has been an extremely successful one for the Pontiac six, and the fruits of this success are seen in the new series Pontiac, announced this week, which incorporates numerous improvements and refinements at no increase in price. The four models illustrated above indicate the graceful lines of the new car. At the upper left is the two-door sedan and at the upper ri ht the rakish new sport roadster, with its convenient folding seat. A head-on View of the roadster, owing the deep, narrow radiator and two of the four-wheel brakes, appears in the centre panel. At the lower left is the beautiful cabriolet and to its right the new four-door sedan. Ask No Questions A very enjoyable afternoon’s sport featured the Wednesday afternoon tournament at the local curling rink this week. Six rinks took part in the competition and the games committee have been commended for their action in placing some of the less experienc- ed skips at the head of rinks thus giv- ing them an opportunity to display their prowess. Good games were the feature of the day and Claud Wright’s rink finally emerged victorious. Ivn-- cidently it might be mentioned that skip Wright was awarded the first‘ prize ticket which he carried with a; grace and manner which would do‘ credit to any prize cockerel that ever stepped out of the show ring. The l idea of awarding prize tickets to win- 1 ning skips is a novel one and will pro~ bably become a custom at the local‘ club in the future. The winning rink was as follows: James Hunt, Jos. Atâ€" kinson, Gid Moodie, C.V. Wright skip second prize, A.A. Eden, Walter Scott, A.E. Glass, T.H. Trench skip. Mrs. Evangeline Lindbergh, mother of the “Lone Eagle,” has been pre- sented with a volume of autographed tributes from prominent Frenchmen, who sent Mme C. Boas de Jouvenal to deliver the token in person. The annual bonspiel will be held next Tuesday, February '7, when many outside rinks are expected to compete for the E.T. Stephens trophy. Ent- ries may be sent to N.J. Glass secre- tary. Mr. and Mrs. A. Chester of Scarb-l oro were the guests of Mr. and Mrs. 'L.G. Stoutenburg on Sunday. Mr. and Mrs. Len Annis, Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Annis of Port Huron and Dunbarton visited with Mrs. Wilmot Brumwell on Sunday. Curling Notes THE LIBERAL. RICHMOND HILL. ONT. To hear shots fired from the old shooting gallery carried memory back to the days of the Rifle Club, when that organization was in full swing. Indeed one might have thought they had returned to stage one of their old- time contests. But such was not the case. The occasion being the shoot- ing for twenty-three birds put up by H.L. Kaiser merchant of the town on Wednesday afternoon the 25th Janu- ary. Tho' stormy, the day was bright. The crowd was not large but competition was keen, just as keen as ‘the air. The following is the score, one off-hand shot being not counted: i , Full score 220 Birds iJack Frisby . . . . . . . . . 210 . . . . . . 4 J. Madill . . . . . . . . . . . 209 . . . . . . 5 Geo.

In a former issue a list of W.M.S. officers was published and an omission and a mistake was made. The viceâ€" president’s name Miss Hopper was 0- mitted and our allocation was sent to Miss Rae. ' On Wednesday evening, January 18, a special meeting was held in the church. Our president, Mrs. W.M. Haig, was very fortunate in securing the services of Rev. W.E. Sibley, a missionary from China for this occasi- on. He explained how the Chinese tried govern their people but failed and that the enmity between the north and the south was to a great extent the cause, for, what suited one was op- posed by the other. He also stated that England and United States had each been invited to help them estab- ‘lish a suitable form of government but each wisely refused. But Russia accepted an invitation but her influen- ce made matters worse and she was asked to withdraw. He attributes the slow progress of Christianity to these conditions. The quartette‘ & Miss Mc- Cague very ably rendered wellâ€"chosen missionary selections after which a ‘social hour was spent in the basement. [The proceeds amounted to $22.15. Mlle.

COOPER HOUSEHOLD HARDWARE Victoria Square A full line of For 18 shots Richmond Hill 4 â€" Queensville 4 Richmond Hill Arena. was the scene of another fast and furious game on Monday night, the Queensville “Nev- er Swets” clashed with the Richmond Hill “Tigers” in an exhibition game. The game started fast and both teams sure did strut their stuff. In less than a minute after play started, Queensville popped a hot one in past “Pug” Harding who was in goal for the Locals. It was a hard one to stop and neither defence men attempted to stop the run-away man who was carrying the puck. It was not long after that the locals tied it up, when “Shorty” Bayes and “Rusty” White scored the best goal of the sixty minâ€" utes; it was the prettiest piece of work that has ever been seen this year. Bayes carried the puck to the defence and past it over to White who flipped it past the Queensville marvel who played an excellent game beâ€" tween the bars. Queensville, pulled a- head again when their fast and furious forwards made a three man rush to the Hill goal and were successful in counting their second goal which was scored by Spence, who was assisted by Nesbitt and Caine. The period ended with the score standing 2-2. Cappell scored the second goal for Richmond Hill with about two minut- es to go in that period, when he slappâ€" ed in a re-bound from the goal-keep- ers pads. The visitors were the first to score in the second period when Madill scor- ed in about five minutes after play had started, and they held the lead until the half way mark was reached when White counted his second goal of the night. Five minutes later Queensville took the lead by one goal and held it until about one minute to go in the last peirod when “Ken” Blanchard put a shot into the visitors net which almost went through the net. The Locals did not show as much combination as was expected, al- though two of the goals came from passes from Bayes to White and Grant to Blanchard. The visitors played good hockey and had the weight but not the speed of the local boys who out-skated them but could not outâ€"play them. With Nesbitt, SpenCe and Caine on the forward line they showed plenty of stuff and kept the locals guessing with their combi- nation. and they were backed by Smith and Madill on defence and both played a very steady game. The local for- ward line was made-up of Kenny ,Blanchard, Shorty Bayes and Lyle Grant, with Cowie and White on de- fence. It was hard to pick a star from either team as they both played good hockey, but the only trouble with Richmond Hill they had no luck around 'their opponents net. , The locals had the edge of the play in the last period, when they played four men up and they sure did plaster their opponents net with shots from all di- rections. Play was held up for five minutes in the last period when the Queensville goalie tried to stop the puck with his head and was knocked cold, but was soon on his feet again and finished out the game in his usual good manner. “Pug” Harding in be- tween the bars for the Locals played a good game and stopped many a hard shot which looked very dangerous from the boards. This was Harding’s first time in goal and he put up a good game. There was a good crowd on hand to witness the game and all went home well satisfied. It was the biggest crowd that has turned out to a game this season. The line-up of the teams are as follows:â€" Queensville:â€"â€"Goa1, Huntley; Defence Madill and Smith; Wings, Nesbitt, Caine and Doane;â€"â€"Subs. Dew and Shanks.

Boys Sports The first game of the basketball tournament between H. Atkinson's team and Clem Proctor’s was won by “Doc’s” team by a score of 16-14. As the score indicates the game was well contested and it was a game worth seeing The second game was between R. Bollons and A. White with Al’s team winning by a score of 23-8. This game was not as exciting as the first game as the difference in the score in- dicates. The High School expects to have the rink for skating on Thursday aft- ernoon’s along with the senior classes of the Public School. Off to a Good Start Tuesday night was the scene of the opening game of the Girl’s Basketball league which we are so proud to say the girl’s won with a score of 22-11 ‘against Aurora. The star of the game was Ruth Reaman who never seemed to miss a single opportunity to score. R.H.H.S. girls had excellent combi- nation While Aurora girls blindly shot from end to end invariably losing the ball. The next game is to be played at Newmarket on Thursday, February 16 and we wish the girls the best of luck in their endeavour to capture the laurels of North York in Basketball.
