Kirkland Lake is in second with four wins out of six games played. The Domeâ€"Porkies have seven games also, and won two; the Noranda @opper Kings winning two out of six games played.

Timâ€" mins plays their last game with the Dome next week, and the following weekâ€"end play at Noranda and Kirkâ€" land Lake.

Saturday, Jan. 30thâ€"Kirkland Lake at Dome Wednesdiay, Feb. 3rdâ€"Timmins at Dome. Saturday, Feb. 6thâ€"Dome at Kirkâ€" land Lake. Sunday, Feb. 7thâ€"Dome at Noranda.

A postponed game from Wednesday, January 6th, between Noranda and Kirkland Lake was not played earlier this week. If this is played before the Kirkland Lake boys come north this Friday, and it is a win for the Teck townhin sextette, then, when Kirkland and Timmins cross sticks on Friday evening both teams will be tied for first place. If not played, a win for Kirkâ€" land will give them even points with Timmins, and one game less played, so fans can be acsured of a real battle royal on Friday evening between the two league leaders.

The superintendent also read a list of all the accounts due by the society, togsther with the accounts receivable az: at November I1st, 1931. show‘ns a deficit for the year of $2,239.71. Th‘s deficit was due to the fact that no camâ€" paign for donations had been made for over eighteen months, and the returns from the campaign had not csmmenced to come in until after the report was ecmpleted. Since the auditor‘s report for the fiscal year had been made, the camrimign and accounts paid had reâ€" duced the~indebtedness, by $1.21450 paid, leaving a balance due of $1,125.20.

The executive committee mclud{’s reâ€" presentatives of the branches of the socgiety and representative citizens of the district. A discussion took place on methods of financing the work of the Children‘s Aid, several of those present feeling that the province should take over the financing or that it be raised by addition to the tax rate in the municiâ€" palities. The president thought that by grants from the municipalities not now giving grants, and by increased grants from those now contr‘ibuting the same result would be achieved in eas‘er way. One of the difficulties was that some of the municipalities were in such conâ€" ditionâ€"that they could not pay their share,. The work for the children, however, had to be carried on and it was a question of doing it in the ways that cou‘d be adop.ed. On motion of Mr. Longmore, secandâ€" ed by Mayor Geo. S.
