The game was the most thrilling that.thc Barrie clan have participated in this season. There never was a minute that some player was not in the pen- alty box- In fact the penalties were dished out so fast that the fans lost all count, and many a time the game was stopped while some injured player was assisted to the box to recover his wind or have a slight wound dressed. in xv n I 0 t\ 2113 j,_,,,, LL. qusunng Lvynuwvu VJ Kl 1.5;-vvvu `(August ` Because many of the Barrie team were wearing black and orange sweaters similar to the regalia of Collingwood, the referee ordered the Barrie outfit to don distinguishing sweaters.` J.

Cook of Orillia drew the ap- pointment as referee for the occa- sion and no complaints were heard regarding his decisions although some of the players were at a loss to know why a few of the penalties were imposed. He had a system all his own which proved to be effective. Right in the- first period he started to send players to the penalty box for one-minute rests and throughout the evening `he was as strict as a regimental serjeant-maj-or on parade. The majority of the penalties im- _posed were for tripping and rough playing. Only one or two offsides escaped his notice but, considering the terric pace set by both teams, that was excusable. __. f\ 71' I ..I'_ __A_.._ ...._- uuav Wu) Uasvunuulur Three junior O.H.A. players grac- ed the` Collingwood line-up and they proved very effective.

Bertram, who did some excellent work, was` the first to get the puck, but being forced to make a solo rush through by the defence. Powell followed with another rush, but he likewise failed to get past. the Orange and Black defence. Pete Woods was the next to get hold of the disc and but for the good work of Tuck he would have tallied easily. Clark came along with a nice individual rush and `broke through the defence and shot; he fell, picked himself up, and shot again but Tuck was prepared, stop-a ping the puck with his hand.

Pete Woods scored the best goal of the game, sending the puck past Tuck and into the net. Immediately after the tally Emms was penalized and is probably still wondering what it was for. Bert- ram made a-solo rush, but failed to get through. Emms penalty was followed by one for Clark, who went into the box amid cheers. Clark was playing brilliant hockey, but two off- sides prevented Barrie from doing any damage before Clark again, took up his position. Keeley made` a scin- tillating rush and shot from centre ice but the goalie stopped and clear- ed. Powell made a similar rush im- mediately afterwards` and met the same fate. Bertram took the puck within eight feet of the Colli_ng- wood net and in attempting to shoot lost his balance -and turned a somer- sault.

Powell had an open space but missed the net by a foot. The `Barrie sextette began to play `better combination and it was only Collingwoo'd s_strong defence that stopped them from scor- ing. Barrie s first goal was scored by clever combination, when Powell` took the puck to the Col1ingwoodcor- ner back of the net and passed it to Bertram who tallied. _ Clark came to the front a few minutes later and in a scintillating rush, with a little as- sistance, sent the rubber past Tuck.

The secretary was] instructed to distribute further local folders so that they would be in the hands ofstourists in ample time. It was decided to take a quarter-page _space in the official road guide of the Ontario Motor League and the publicity committee was instructedl to prepare the necessary copy. .

When the question of industries was under discussion, Mr. Henry said that he had answered quite a large number of enquiries but fur- ther correspondence showed that most of the promoters were looking for large stock subscriptions locally and for other inducements. Mr. Quinlan, also, said that various pro- . positions had come before the direct- ors. All that looked at all promising were investigated. None. of them, however, proved of such a nature that they could be recommended to the citizens. By these investigations the B.C.A. had, said Mr. Quinlan, prevented a number of undesirable promotions being placed before. the people of Barrie. During the last fewyears there had been two unfor- tunate experiences in; connection with industries oated locally, but in neither of these cases had the Com- munity Association given its approv- al. 'While' the Community Associa- tion had not on the surface seemed. as -active as some organizations in other towns, -it had in a quiet way done a good deal to promote the in- terestsof Barrie, and so fullybjust-p ied its existence." ~ IL .I.- __......I ...'....u|nm' J-nus anal`-|'H\u .LUl.'Hl U1. a uuaxu UL .l.J.uuw.

At the annual commencement of this school of learning there appear new actors to take the place of those who staged similar successful events in previous years. From youths and maidens of school age cannot be ex-I pected the vocal prociency or his- trionic skill that adults might mani- fest under similar circumstances, yet` the productions given by the students have been of a character that did great credit to the performers and to the school.

E. Bruce, the manager of _the Barrie area for the Bell Tele- phone Co., gives an introductory ad- dress on what an important place the telephone holds in each community. Mr. Bruce urges the co-operation of the subscribers, in order to assist the [telephone company to improve its iservice. The subscriber today takes [his telephone as a matter of course, as he does his newspaper, but he sel- dom thinks of the enormous amount of equipment. and the army of work- ers that are behind the scenes and which give him that service. In the `Bell Telephone Company s plants in Canada, there are 13,000 people de- voting their lives to give the public a good service, and included in that number are forty residents of Barrie who are looking after the equipment and giving the subscriber the service he demands. By reasonof the ever- {increasing demands on the service, {there must be co-operation to main- itain a high standard of efficiency. That _is one reason why the officials have inaugurated these demonstra- tions in order to bring central to ;the people, stated Mr. Bruce. I,__I _ Pl,-VIONE OPERATION AND DEVELOPMENT {Shown Through Picture and}- | Demonstrations by the 1 Bell Co. I The mysteries of the operators room in the Bell Telephone building are now mysteries no longer. For the past two weeks the Bell Tele- phone Company, with the co-opera- tion of its employees, has been giv- ling demonstrations at various public gatherings, with the bid of a model switchboard. Besides the demonstra- `tion given by operators and other members of the telephone service, ve reels of pictures are -being shown. AI :1 , I, ,,___.L_._ nv--v rvvr--, ~--vv-- ----- -_..--.

Telephones such as are is- {sued to subscribers are installed on each side of the board and the oper- iator shows how calls are received iand plugged through the board to the party called. A great deal of interest is being created by the op- erators demonstration, not only be-I cause the operators voices are fam- iliar to many in the audiences, but Ibecause of the efficient manner in which these young ladies operate the switchboard. -` They use no technical {language which could not be under- istood by the audience. , A ,,,_ ,--L._ -._ 1""" `v 5 Andlsome their statements re-I garding'- the equipment are amazing.` ,It is hardly believable that 9000 calls I a day, or 56,000 calls a week, are handled by the operators in the local. !exchange.
