Col Ward-, in proposing the health of The Warden and County Council of Simcoe, said that not for many years` had circumstances favored a meeting of the oicers of the regiment and the peop'e's representatives. He spoke feelinglv of the good relationship which had always existed between the Battalion and the County Coun-` cil. to whom, fromtime to time,.the various commanding oicers had appealed for assist ance and he was proud tosay had never appealed in vain. Thus while Simcoe s soldiers had volunteered to discharge the county s share of the country's defence the county representatives had appreciated the soldiers services and had rendered assist-' l ance. He hoped that this good feeling between the citizen and the citizen soldier would ever continuerand that both would blend their energies to make -the 35th the best rural battalion in Canada.` ' D.` ; A.

The thanks of the Court are specially; due to Bro Morgan for installing the oioers, as he was at the time suering irom a severe attack of the grippe. ,The list of oicers is given below : PC.Rr, Bro W Sarjeantz C.R., Bro.

A ` At Elmvale, on Friday last, ` the Collegiate Institute hockey team defeated the Elmvale aggregation by a score of three goals to two, The score. however, does not show the relative ability of t_he two. teams, for the boys from Barrie played a better game than their big op onents. The reason for "the cell {ans ina ility to score more was "the bad ight and an umpire whose hockey sight was not good To make. the game interesting, referee Smith put a man to the fence from each side, to the eat amuse- ment of the other players. he B.
