Although Orillia byaifiliation might. place itself in the_ same position to- wards this Fund as nearly all the municipalities in Canada, this is no reason why it should be penalized by a 'double burden. The relief which the Council sug- gests should be granted them would be applied. `toward the Orillia Patriotic Fund while the balance of its share of the count.y.le`vy would goto the Can- adian Patriotie Fund. `The action or the County` Many people will be inclined to wonder with the County Council, if the lengthy report of the Grand Jury at the December Sessions was worth what it cost the county. the 4th line of Ess'a and giving ` nothing towards" the improve- ` \ment of the road .leading from . ` By making a grant of $500 for ` Barrie to Camp _' Borden, the "County Council showed a dis- crimination not justified either ` by theirequirements of tra`ic.or . the condition of the roads. While the $500 can undoubtedly be spent" to good advantage on the road to which it was voted, the road from Barrieto the Camp is in need of even a larger appro-' priation.

The other members of the team also have a lot of speed but fail to combine as well asthey might. -Their shooting could be improved upon -also-but for a band of players` who have never played together previous to this season, theyare entitled to a lot of cre- dit. It is regrettable that. the `three clubs in the group had not The |V|Iid|and-171th Bn, Game played a double schedule.

Their game was decided- ly free from` roughness, only two penalties being inflicted for Ininor trips. The Khaki-clad lads never gave up trying to the last trench, "however, after which they freely expressed themselves as hoping their guests would put Collingwood out. Their is a lit- tle strained relationship between the Soldiers and Collingwood due, they claim, to a little mix-up be- tween Fryer and Nixon, when the 177th played, in Collingwood. In any event, the ,auburn-haired veteran from the Georgian Bay town, failed to appear in the re- turn game at Barrie.
