This is the first visit, of its <~kind to Timmins Branch and we hope to see a few more in the future, the purpgse of the visit as you know, was to meet Branch ‘88‘ in Darts and Cribbage, about 36 members from 87 were present. rPelte got his Dart players lined up shortly after arrival and soon the game was in progress, the Lake men were a little off their game owing to the three "hours Bus ride. Number one team of Granch 88 and No. one of Branch 87 resulted in a two to ons win for the Lake men, old veteran Joe Paton ‘of Branch 87 was the star of lhnis team and Pete coming close and Henry Matson shone for Branch *88‘. tee who are doing a good job in an effort to create a good time for all and should be supported. For Branch ‘87"° comrade Péete Vioâ€" vanalli was in charge of Darts and Jim Pearson was in charge of Crib players, for Branch ‘88‘ comrade‘ Bill Forrester looked after our crib players. In the second match between ber Two â€"of Branch 87 and Two of Branch 88 ended in a three to nothing viciory for Timmins, in this game the stars were Bill Arundall, Bert Lauzon and Les Nicholson for ‘88‘. In the Jast hurdle between number One team of Branch ‘88‘"and number Two of" Branch 87 resulted a Two to (One victory for Branch ‘88‘, number One team of Branch ‘87 and the secâ€" ond team of Branch ‘88‘ ended in the sume result, a two to one win for Branch ‘88‘. The total and final score is, Timmins 8, Kirkland Lake 4, making Branch the first holder of the Challenge¢ Cup and open to challenge by other Branches. In the Cribbage tournament nine tables of fours took part, which (ll(l(‘(l in a victory for Kirkland Lake ~1u, ng off the prizes, I did noticse Jim Pearson carrying ZEScotty underhis aim, not Tiny Taylor, but the prize Scotty. Comrade Sergearnt at Arms ‘Tiny TayTor did not compete in anything, he just keptF on the Boys and his candles. Durins the games the errtertainment committee served sandwiches and hot dogs ?n'd to climax the evening, comâ€" rade Jim McLennon, our local Pipe Major gave the boys a treat on the bagpipes, and comrade Tiny Taylor demonstrated his agility in dancing to the pipes, himself, a robust Highlander from the ‘north. Comrate J. .Brown of, Branch ‘87 took the little lady homeé, at least we hope so. Comrade W. Laing from Kirkland Lake thanked Branch ‘88‘ for the welâ€" come they had received on their arâ€" rival and the good time given to them, and Cxlended an invitation to Branch ‘88‘, to visit them in the very near fuâ€" ture, 1)01 haps in a month‘s time. The. Memorial Hall campaign weat off with a good start on Monday last. the canvassers are doing a good job, but there isn‘t quite enough of them to..cover the district, so if there is any one who has an hour or two to spare get in and lead a hand.
