MOORE, M.D., Reference has been made in the past to buttons, tinselâ€"covered coppers, fake coins and other counterfeits found on collection plates in Timmins on sion. The band concerts have been the occasior, for some people to pass off false coins here. Kirkland Lake has had similar experience at events, such as band concerts where collections were taken instead of an admission fee being charged. It is interesting to note that Sudbury is not troubled with that sort of thingâ€"if you let Sudbury tell it. On !the front page of The Sudbury Star llast week there was an item purportâ€" ing to prove the superiority of Sudbury folks over the people of other towns in this matter. The item was not headed by Ripley or any of his imitaâ€" tors but was given as an ordinary item of news. "Believe It of Not," however, would seem to be an appropriate headâ€" ing. However, here is the item just as it appeared last week in The Sudbury Startâ€" Box Hockey ‘Bcox lacrosse is a new game and here is box hockey, an indoor game which should provide some fun for your group. A rectangular box four or five feet long by three feet wide is required It should be six or eight inches in height and have partition exactly across the middle. Through this parâ€" tition are. two openings or tunnels. Other cpenings are at the ends. These are the goals. The centre partition can be fitted by using dcsor hocoks Two players gcomprise a team and they use hockey sticks to propel an old baseâ€" ball toward their opponent‘s goal. The ‘"‘puck" or rather the ball, is faced alternately in the two areas. Not more than two men per team should play unless the box is made much longer. Arrange your teams, draw up a schedule, and ‘have the Allan Cup series right at home. Sudbury Better Than Kirkland There has never been a slug, or a bad coin, tinselled penny or a button, or anything spurious thrown into the colâ€" lection plate at any â€"of the concerts given by the Sudbury Legion and Citiâ€" zens‘ Band, according to A. G. Bell, who is in charge of the plate at the concerts. "I see where they have been trying to get away with that stuff up at Kirkâ€" land? Lake and Timmins," Mr. Bell told The Sudbury Star, "and for that reason I have been on the lookout. We haven‘t had fSny trouble, however. We have had a few pennies now and then, of course. For instance, at the last concert a fellow came in and asked me how much it was to enter. I told him he could contribute whatever he wanted, md he put in a cent. Howâ€" ever, that does not happen often and this fellow probably did not have more." Collections at the last concert, exâ€" ceeding $60, were higher than they have been. Usually the contributions do not amount to above $50. Sudbury Collection Plates Free from Bogus Coins charge help them pass their spare hours. Owing to lack of space in the church hall, one lad‘s father offered his billiard room. This was gratefully accepted and work was started immediately{ Very soon bird houses of all descripâ€" tions were made, also many other useâ€" ful articles for Ithe home.
