Connors in goal for the “Pen~rastlers” was at his usual mark. stopping the hard and dificult ones, but allowing the easy ones to find the nets. Yerex, for the Bri- tains, was there with the goods, cap- turing all that came near him. The scoring was done by the Heat- ty brothers and Everson. The line-ups were: .

On the other hand, the C.L.S. put up fine work each playing his record.

It can be said that the whole Omemee sev- en played fine hockey, but the “com” question is still lacking in their hoc- key. Although the country boys played good hockey the C.L.S. were too fast but the scoring of the Society did not in the least dishearten them. as they dug in, playing good defence in all positions.

They were doing a great educational work all over the hey Dominion, and he trusted that as a re- all sult of thisfimeeting St. Andrew’s con- . gregation would step up from its low mg :rank in the matter of Missions to a hoe Ilhigh standard in this reSpect.

The meeting was arranged for the purpose of laying before the men of St. Andrew’s congregation the great work that has been undertaken by the Laymen’s Missionary Movement, an organization started in the City of {Toronto in November 1907, having as [its object the evangah'zation of the world in this generation. 1‘ l About one» hundred menâ€"members 111 of St. Andrew’s congregationâ€"=gather- [ed in the schoolroom of the church Monday ev’g., at what was known as (the Laymen’ s Missionary Banquet.
