The arena was crowded, as in their last meeting, Girones only lost on points. This time it was another story. Only four blows Miller needed to win by a knockâ€"out.

St.. Mary‘s you were a plu habit of forge! don‘t remember Those: who know Premier Bennett best often speak of the gentle kindly heart beneath a sometimes brusque exâ€" terior. It may be said about Premier Bennett that he does not suffer adult fools very gladly, and "chisellers" will find him very cold and unresponsive, To children, however, his friends say he is a different kind of manâ€"the kind kind. A recent incident is being told to prove this. Little Thelma Anderson, of Harris, Saskatchewan, was a sad girl recently. She loved skating but had outgrown her skates and so was missâ€" ing what to her was most of life‘s hapâ€" piness. <An older girl advised her to ‘‘write to Mr. Bennettâ€"he fixes qveryâ€" thing these days." Thelma took the advice seriously and secretly wrote the premier a letter telling her troubles. A few days after the letter had been reâ€" ceived at Ottawa, Thelma was delighted to receive a registered letter from the premier of Canada. And.in the letter was a cheque for $5.00 to buy the deâ€" sired skates. It is safe to say, though, that the letter to the little girl will be treasured long after the skates have been outgrown, and the people in genâ€" eral â€"will feel that they are right in beâ€" lieving the premier to be a big man in all the better meanings of the word.
