The result was hard to swallow, but the team from the most populous secâ€" tion of the Camp is without the least doubt a good team, and we know it. The game reminded us (because it was so different) of the 1921 season, when the Dome were unbeatable, and Timmins were the losing team. â€" Howâ€" ever, as Bob Harrower says, ‘‘tnow that Kirkland Lake have been eliminâ€" ated by Timmins (2 to 0), the final for this district‘s trials for the Onâ€" tario Cup will be played on the Dome‘s ground next Saturday, and several of the old 1921 team, whom we will call the old contemptibles, are going to get out for this game to show Timmins that the Dome is still worthy of notice.‘‘ .

These P.D. S.B. games are not patronmzed _ as much as they deserve,/probably from the cussedness of human nature, that folks don‘t appreciate anything they don‘t have to pay for. The class of ball as played in the games are full of just as many good baseball plays as the best of the hardball this seaâ€" son.
