Pine Strest North "AE ies Matachewan go‘d mining camp south of Timmins is to the effect that the epidemic of the "flu" has struck that place with force. Work at the Ashley Gold Mines is understood to be conâ€" siderably curtailed due to the prevalâ€" ence of the "fiu." It is reported that on one recent day no less than 55 of the men on the Ashley staff were ill. The little hospital in use at the camp has necessarily been much overcrowded for the moment, though the ingenuity of the management and the men has helped to make things easier than they might have been otherwise. Gome of the men, however, have been overly anxious to return to work with the result that they have had> relapses worse than the original attack, the disease usually bsing of mild type. One man at the Ashley is said to have developed. pneumonia, but it is understood "that he is making good progress to recovery. There will be no Sunday School serâ€" vices either in town or at the Dome on next Sunday morning as it is Christmas Day. There will be the usuâ€" al evening service. At the Dome Sunâ€" day School on last Sunday each child was given a gift but the usual Christâ€" mas tree and concert is being dispensâ€" ed with this year as there is so much sickness around that it was hard to get proper practices. The firemen are completing arrangeâ€" ments for their New Year‘s Eve Carniâ€" val. At midnight there will be supper and the various features to welcome the New Year. This is not a masquerâ€" ade dance but any who choose to do so 1may come in costume. It is a carniâ€" val dance with all the novelties atâ€" tached thereto and a good orchestra to supply the music. The schools are closing on Wednesâ€" day evening of this week and on Thursday most of the teachers will be on their way to spend Christmas at their homes in the various parts of the province. During the last week most of the classes have been badly disruptâ€" ed by the "flu". Hockey is here again. South Porcuâ€" pine had its first senior game on Satâ€" urday evening lastâ€"an exhibition fixâ€" ture with Timmins, which the visitors won with two goals to one. "The Dome team were well suppliedâ€" with spares but they had not the experience in playing together that the visitors have had. In the first two periods there was a decided tendency to do solo work which was easily checked by the Timâ€" mins defence. While Dome team had an edge in aggressive play there being thirtyâ€"one shots on Timmins goal to twentyâ€"two on Dome, their sniping was done from too far out to be effective with Orfrankos. Wilson acted as reâ€" feree. Some of the players were slow to recognize the advantage given them by the forward pass but it certainly The perfect food from carly babyhood to old ageâ€"a bodyâ€"builder unsurpassed and creator of energy in casily assimilated form. Drink milk, lots of it, in the safeguarded condition offered by the Timmins Daity. Fifteen years of unceasing care in milk production has given us supremacy in the field. The entire staff extend to all our customers and others sinâ€" cere good wishes for a Bright and Merry Christmas and prosperity in the New Year. Corner Kirby and Birch St. cuts down bellâ€"ringing. The teams lined up:â€"Timminsâ€"goal, Orfrankos; defence, Porter, Lortie; centre, Arunâ€" del; wings, Richer, Leameroux; spares, Auger, Walsh, Tremblay, McKinnon, Spence , Porter Sr., Chambers and Quinlan. Domeâ€"goal, Gingras; deâ€" fence, Smith and Myers; centre, Cook; wings, W. B. Smith and Heximer; spares, Catarello, Michaelson, Doran, Lowry, Proulx, Murphy, Massecar, Johns. Heximer started the ball rollâ€" ing by the first shot on goal for the: season but Arundel was back in a secâ€" cnd try:ng out Gingras. When the vaunted "kid line" of our former Maple Leaf juniors was sent out as a second forward line they got a rousing recepâ€" tion and it is quite evident those youngsters know their stuff and can combine for effective work just as well as those who have learned the game on bigger ice. With seven minutes gone, Timmins were pressing hard. The second line of Walsh, Tremblay and Auger were lining up dangerously again and again. Walsh is a recruit from Noranda, a former Eskimo, and Tremblay a scoreâ€"maker from Kapusâ€" kasing. They add strength to the Timmins line up. Auger snapped up a pass from Tremblay and caught Ginâ€" gras napping for the first score. Coach Briden sent out a whole new team exâ€" cept the goalie. Massecar and Murphy on defence, Lowry, Johns and Proulx forwards. Murphy has speed to burn but his lone rushes proved fruitless. Lowry was quicker on the pickâ€"up than. some of his mates but time and again when he tried to pass for a closer workâ€" in, there was "nobody home," and the chance was gone. Walsh was the first bad boy of the season but Richer and Lowry soon followed. Murphy‘s quick work saved a tally when Arundel pickâ€" ed off a loose puck close to Dome net. Porter was next in the hoosegow. Arundel followed for tripping Murphy and then Walsh for a trip to Catarello. The second period was just under way when Porter was again waved off for dumping Murphy. Auger, Tremblay and Walsh combined the best of any line sent out to the ice. They were alâ€" ways dangerous and worked in toâ€" gether repeatedly. Doran, Michaelson, and Catarello met their Waterloo t the visitors‘ defence each time, A goal made by Cook was not allowed by the referee, although the light had flashed for some time between the referee‘s bell rang. Porter went off for boarding Doran when he was in scoring position. { Early in the third session Walsh made it two for the visitors. Richer had been to the repair dock and came back looking as though he needed more face to hold up the supply of plasters. Orâ€" frankos was bhombarded repeatedly. At one time he and his rearâ€"guard were both hunting for that rubber disc but McKinnon had it halfâ€"way up the ice, having poked it from the Dome in the old familiar way he has been noted for since his school day games. Catarello to Michaelson, Doran gave the visiting goalie an anxious moment but he stood the charge. Timmins shot down the ice for relief. Auger went off for a trip. Massecar‘s little game of getting back at an opponent was not noticed much by fans until it landed him in the penalty box. Gingras got a glad hand for a smart save off Tremblay. Hexiâ€" mer, Cook and W. B. Smith were ing hockey good to look at. With about a minute to go W.

There is to be another game on Friâ€" day night of this week at South PoFâ€" cupine arena with Iroquois Falls. There are still quite a number of the old firingâ€"line at the Falls and an enâ€" counter with the Eskimos is always a drawing card for Porcupine fans. ‘The attendance for last Saturday‘s game was good, considering the prevalence of "flu." Friday‘s game starts at 8.15. Efforts are being made to form a town league for local hockey but so far we have heard of no definite results. Mr. James Houston is seriously ill at the Porcupine hospital but successfully underwent an operation on Friday last and friends are hopeful now of a speedy recovery. Banta Claus visited the United Church Sunday School on Tuesday evening and distributed stockings of candy and nuts and a small gift to each child. During the first part of the evening a children‘s concert hail been given.

There were opening and closing choruses by the school, an address of welcome in the form of recitation by Terry Wilson, recitations by Eva McLead and Eileen Purdy, the latter bringing down roars of laughter from the youth assembled ~when she pointed to "Dad" as the bad boy of their family.
